All Her Secrets

Chapter 331 The Kindness

When Audrey asked her questions, Catherine stayed quiet, as if she didn’t hear anything. Korbin, noticing Catherine’s attitude, couldn’t resist but complain to Audrey, “You see it too, right? It’s not me being too tough on her. It’s her attitude.”

Audrey sat there feeling embarrassed, unsure of how to respond to her father. In her upbringing, Catherine’s attitude was indeed inappropriate. After all, she was the daughter, and she shouldn’t treat her father this way.

However, Audrey also felt that Catherine had her reasons. Perhaps it was because Korbin didn’t fully understand Catherine’s personality, which had led to the current misunderstanding.

Seeing her father turn away in frustration, Audrey had no choice but to try to persuade Catherine. After all, they were all family.

“Kathy, if you know anything about that Hacker Alliance, just let Dad know. We’re all family, and there shouldn’t be any secrets between us, right?”

Catherine gave Audrey a cold look, but Audrey remained sincere, not at all intimidated by her. She even winked at Catherine, sending her a subtle message.

After a few seconds of silence, Catherine turned her head and looked at Korbin with a cold gaze. Thinking that Audrey’s words had worked, Korbin felt a bit pleased. However, Catherine didn’t answer his. question. Instead, she asked a new one.

“Has Xavier contacted you?”

Korbin was taken aback, not expecting Catherine to turn the tables on him. After a moment, he nodded and narrowed his eyes, signaling danger as he stared at Catherine. “So, the photo Xavier showed me is real? You know members of the Hacker Alliance?”

“Not familiar,” Catherine replied plainly because she wasn’t lying. The Hacker Alliance had grown so large, with countless members scattered around the world.
