Chapter 1044 Interact with My Nephew

Since Triston brought Audrey to meet his family, he had worked non-stop to put their marriage on the agenda.

Audrey was a popular actress, and to not affect her career, Triston chose to propose in a low-key manner.

Triston arranged a party on Audrey’s birthday and invited many of Audrey’s friends.

Audrey originally thought Triston was too high-profile, but Triston insisted. ” I didn’t participate in so many of your past birthdays. I finally have a chance to participate this time.”

He persuaded Audrey repeatedly. Audrey couldn’t resist him and could only agree to let him arrange the party.

Luckily, he only invited Audrey’s close friends and did not send out invitations widely, so she could take this opportunity to have a gathering of friends.

Audrey was surprised to see Catherine when she arrived.

Catherine was now eight months pregnant. Normally, she would be rejected by Branden if she wanted to visit Catherine.

Branden was now very careful with Catherine every day, and Audrey was surprised that Branden agreed to let Catherine come to her birthday party.

Seeing her sister around, Audrey’s smile couldn’t be suppressed. “Kathy, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen you. How’s everything going?”

Catherine nodded faintly. Seeing Audrey looking curiously at her belly, Catherine asked in a cold voice, “Do you want to touch it? It’s time for this brat to wake up.”

“Brat?” Audrey looked at Catherine with amusement, not realizing she’d given her child such an address.

Catherine glanced at Branden.

Branden looked away silently, cursing inwardly, “That brat is going to occupy Catherine for ten months. If it weren’t for the fact that he’s my kid, I would have kicked him away a long time ago. Being able to address him brat is already the biggest favor I can give him. How dare he ask for anything else?”

Seeing Branden’s dark face, Audrey couldn’t help but smile. She only felt aggrieved for her little nephew.

Looking at Catherine’s belly, she was a little curious and carefully reached out her hand to touch it, but she was too scared to reach out.

Seeing her hesitation, Catherine simply pulled her hand and pressed it directly on her belly.

Perhaps sensing someone’s touch, Catherine’s originally motionless belly suddenly moved.

Audrey froze for a moment and looked up at Catherine in surprise. “Is my nephew responding to me?”

“Yes.” Catherine nodded lightly. “It seems that he really likes you.”

Even Branden couldn’t always receive a response from the baby when he touched Catherine’s belly.

Audrey couldn’t stop smiling as she felt the magic of life, and the people around her came up to join in the fun. Zobber and the girls all wanted to touch Catherine’s belly.

Catherine was the first of their group to get married and the first to get pregnant. None of them had ever experienced pregnancy before and they were all a little curious.

Triston got ready and came out to find that the crowd that was supposed to be around the stage had all disappeared. He didn’t even see Audrey there.

He walked in and realized that a few girls were gathering around. He glanced toward Ronin who was there and asked, “What’s going on? What are they looking at?”

Ronin complained, “They’re interacting with my nephew.”

If it weren’t for the fact that Branden was there, Ronin would have wanted to go up and touch his nephew.

He was so angry, so jealous, so envious of them.

Triston was getting antsy too. He’d had a hard time convincing Branden to bring Catherine to this birthday party, but he didn’t want Catherine to take away all the attention.

He hoped that everything would go well tonight.

Catherine Swann, a simple countryside girl, was having a leisurely and carefree life in the countryside. She thought she could have a happy life there for the rest of her life. Unfortunately, life had other plans for her. Her grandfather left a will for her, making her the inheritor of the Swanns’ billion-dollar fortune. As if that wasn’t shocking enough, he also arranged a marriage for her.

Branden Duncan, the only heir of the wealthiest family in Casier, was the dream prince charming of almost all the women in Casier. But Catherine turned him down in public. Instead of being angry about it, he was attracted by Catherine's cold eyes.Although Catherine seemed to be a girl with a simple life in the countryside, she was not simple. What kind of identity did she have? How would she deal with her unexpected fiancé and the opposition from the rest of the Swanns to her inheritance of the Swanns’ fortune?

Chapter 1 Return of the Jinx At Vicente Swann's funeral. As the Swanns were one of the three prominent families in Casier, Vicente's funeral was naturally packed with big shots and members of respected families in Casier. In the noisy venue, the arrival of a girl in a white T-shirt attracted the attention of everyone present. All of the people present were either rich or powerful. Despite being good-looking, the girl wore a cheap and battered T-shirt, setting her apart from everyone else at the funeral. Seeing how she walked straight toward the Swanns family, someone couldn't help asking curiously, "Who is she? Why is she sitting with the Swanns?" "I heard that she is Miss Catherine, the second daughter of the Swanns that had lived away from the family. Vicente only asked her to come back before he died." "Is that so? I heard that Vicente ordered the family to announce his will in front of everyone before he died. I guess she only returned for this!" ... The girl did not know that she had already become the topic of the guests' discussions. She looked calmly ahead with an indifferent expression on her face. Her eyes remained focused on Vicente's portrait in the middle of the venue. Nobody knew what she was thinking about at the time. At the sight of Catherine Swann like this, Liana Swann, the youngest and favorite daughter of the Swanns, couldn't help complaining to her mother, who was sitting next to her. "Mom, what is going on with this country girl? Grandpa has died. Even if she isn't sad, she should at least pretend to cry. What would the others think if the media took a photo of her like this later? She wouldn't even change her clothes when we asked her to. People that don't know better would think that the Swanns have mistreated her!" After hearing her youngest daughter's complaints, Rachael Swann furrowed her brows too. She thought that her youngest daughter did have a point. She never loved Catherine, her daughter from the countryside, dearly. In fact, Catherine pissed Rachael off just one day after she had returned. However, it was not the right time for Rachael to handle Catherine now. She planned to wait until the funeral was over before sending Catherine back to the countryside so that Catherine wouldn't continue to embarrass the Swanns here. Looking up, Rachael saw that her husband had arrived. She comforted her youngest daughter in a low voice, "Liana, be good. Your father is here. Bear with Catherine for now. We need to deal with what is important first!" Liana couldn't show her annoyance towards Catherine in public, so she could only choke back the complaints on the tip of her tongue. Nobody noticed that Catherine, who had been looking straight ahead, smiled lightly. The Swanns never spent time with Catherine, so they wouldn't know she had exceptional hearing. Even though Rachael and Liana spoke in a low voice, Catherine clearly heard every word of their exchange. Her mother truly did not love her! As Catherine stared at Vicente's portrait, her eyes flashed with a faint trace of sadness. Did she have to cry because of pain? ... Korbin Swann walked up the stage slowly. He gave a long speech first and expressed his views about how great Vicente was before finally announcing that the family would publicly announce Vicente's will. As many people knew this beforehand, the crowd was not too surprised. Vicente had a son and daughter. It was a no-brainer who would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. However, nobody understood why Vicente would make sure to make such a fuss to announce his will publicly. Was it just for formality? The lawyer Vicente trusted the most when he was still alive opened the sealed will and read it out loud. "After careful consideration, I, Vicente Swann, leave all my shares of the Swann Corporation, real estate properties, and a 500 million-dollar deposit at the Bank of Nospines to my granddaughter, Catherine Swann..." At the lawyer's words, the crowd gasped in shock. Not even the Swanns, everyone present was dumbfounded. Catherine Swann? Wasn't she the second daughter of the Swanns, the jinx that Vicente sent off to be raised in the countryside when she was young? How could it be? She would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. With their jaws dropped, everyone shared a similar look of horror. Except for Catherine, the center of the discussion. She still looked indifferent, as though nothing had happened. Her eyes were still fixed on Vicente's portrait in the center of the hall. Her lips parted slightly as she spoke in an almost inaudible voice. "Old man, what were you thinking?"
