All Her Secrets

Kim Morris was still rambling on the other end of the phone. He was trying everything to make Audrey convince Catherine into attending the reality show.

His words started to have an effect on Audrey. Now that her focus was on her career, she understood what Kim was trying to tell her.

It was a rare opportunity for her to participate in this reality show. She would probably never have another chance at fame if she missed this.

She raised her head and looked at Catherine. Catherine was still eating the barbecue at a leisurely pace.

She exuded an air of elegance even when she ate something as homely as barbecue.

Audrey looked at the face that semi-resembled her own. She still couldn’t make up her mind to ask Catherine about the reality show.

In her eyes, Catherine was an aloof yet sensitive person. She didn’t like to interact with the outside world. One could even say that she’s somewhat introverted.

Most importantly, she was still in school. Although the show would be shot on weekends, it might still affect her studies.

In an effort to make Kim stop nagging, Audrey tried to stall him by saying, “Kimmy, don’t worry. I will try my best to convince Catherine tonight. I’ll let you know if there’s good news!”

Without giving Kim a chance to reply, Audrey hung up the phone. Pretending nothing had happened, she returned to her seat and resumed eating the barbecue. She didn’t know that Catherine had heard her conversation loud and clear.

A few minutes passed. After a long hesitation, Audrey finally decided to speak. She pretended to ask Catherine casually, “Kathy, you saw me during the shoot today, didn’t you? Do you like how it feels to be on TV?”

Catherine shook her head without hesitation. Her blank expression didn’t change in the slightest.

Audrey gave up. She had known that Catherine wouldn’t like it. Given her personality, there was no way that she would like it.

Audrey gave a cheerful smile, looking relieved. “That makes sense. Not everyone enjoys being in front of a camera.”

She noticed Catherine scrutinizing her and laughed awkwardly. She tried to pretend that everything was fine. “It’s ok, I just thought that this was a good time to make conversation. Don’t worry about it, let’s enjoy the food!”
