All Her Secrets

Chapter 40

Triston also noticed that Audrey didn’t seem to understand what he was talking about. He pointed a finger at Branden, then at Catherine.

Audrey understood immediately that Triston was talking about Branden and Catherine being engaged.

In the upper-class community, Branden was the dream of marrying the Duncans as their lifelong ambition.

less girls. Many people took

However, Branden was cold and didn’t like to socialize with others. He spent most of his time on his work and was rarely heard to be involved with any woman.

In fact, Branden was even once rumored to be gay, as there was only all the Fiston by his s time.

Audrey studied Branden carefully with a brief glance at him.

Even though she had only taken one look at him, Audrey was almost frozen by Branden’s cold presence. She looked away hurriedly and didn’t dare to look at him again.

Even though Branden was a great man, Audrey felt he was incompatible with Catherine. Audrey didn’t know what Vicente was thinking about when he had made such an arrangement.

In Audrey’s opinion, her sister was too soft as she had just returned from the countryside. She would easily get hurt from being with a bossy man like Branden.

Audrey was said jokingly to that Catherine would be looked down upon. To protect Catherine, Audrey immediately, “Vicente and the others arranged that. Young people accept arranger with that. You’re a young man yourself, Triston. Would you really accept arrangements like that? It’s such a joke. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you ask Mr. Duncan if he would agree to that?”

Before Triston could answer, Branden, who had remained silent since ordering the chicken tikka masala until now, spoke suddenly, “Why wouldn’t I?”

His words stunned everyone.

Audrey’s jaw dropped from the shock. Triston also looked at Branden with a horrified expression.

Even Catherine, who was focused on her food, looked up at Branden.

Her brows were knitted on her exquisite face.

She didn’t take Audrey and Triston’s conversation seriously and let them roam free with their chitchat. She didn’t expect Branden to speak up so suddenly.

Catherine raised her head slowly and looked in Branden’s direction. He was sitting in the far-end corner, looking lazy and casual.
