All Her Secrets

The barbecue was piping hot and had vibrant colors. Under the relentless heat, the mouthwatering aroma filled the air. The enticing scent tickled the senses and whetted appetites. Catherine had a refined taste for barbecue, and at that moment, she was indulging in it gracefully.

Audrey grew up in the Swanns’. She had always known the rules at the dinner table. But today, she found herself struggling to control her cravings.

It had been three months since she had enjoyed a proper meal. Now, in the face of the delicious barbecue, she couldn’t resist. Kim noticed Audrey’s voracious appetite and shook his head.

“Audrey, you’re one of the hottest actresses out there. Can you please be a bit more conscious of your image?”

Audrey waved her hand and replied, 11 Don’t worry. I’m not famous enough for everyone to recognize me yet.”

Her words barely left her lips before she was proven wrong.

“Wow. Isn’t this Audrey, the big star?”

A mocking voice came from the front. It was filled with mischief and teasing. Audrey heard the voice and found it somewhat familiar. She looked up and then frowned instantly. She muttered under her breath, “It’s him again.”

He had his arm around a hot lady with a seductive figure. The woman’s attire barely qualified as clothing. It was more like a piece of fabric, which barely covered her from just above her navel to below her collarbone.
