All Her Secrets

Catherine’s face turned chillingly cold when she heard Rachael’s hysterical outburst. In an instant, the living room seemed enveloped in a transparent barrier. It was suffocating.

Liana and Johnathan had been watching the drama unfold. At that moment, they felt an unsettling panic in the atmosphere. Rachael was stunned, her words dying on her lips because Catherine’s gaze was too unnerving.

Seeing the situation deadlock, Korbin, who had been sitting silently on the side all the time, suddenly spoke up. He said with a serious and deep tone, Rachael, that’s enough.”

Korbin was the current head of the Swanns. And Rachael dared not argue with her husband. Moreover, she realized she had gone too far in her anger.

For Rachael, although it was true that Catherine was a jinx, these words were not suitable to say publicly. After all, she was Catherine’s mother.

However, although Rachael recognized her slip of the tongue, she attributed all of it to Catherine’s lack of manners. She blamed Catherine for triggering her rage.

Rachael stepped back, and Korbin stepped forward. As a leader accustomed to managing situations, Korbin was skilled at reading people’s expressions when making decisions. He understood that Catherine’s current anger was entirely natural from his perspective.

To prevent Catherine from acting impulsively and making consequential decisions, Korbin sighed and continued, “Kathy, your mother just got overly upset. She said some odd things in the heat of the moment.

“She’s angry because she worries about you. You went off to record a show with Audrey without a word. In the Swanns, we already have one daughter who gets into the limelight and doesn’t focus on her responsibilities. And now, you joined her. Naturally, your mother is frustrated.”

Hearing Korbin’s words, Catherine lazily raised her gaze and coldly stared at him. Catherine seemed to understand why Audrey didn’t seek help from the Swanns, even though she endured mistreatment outside.

It was because even if Audrey asked for help, Korbin wouldn’t assist even though Audrey was his daughter.
