Female Novel
Chapter 127
Audrey stared at him with an astonished look. She was really stunned for a moment. “This is so much!Johnathan, who do you think I am? How can I have that much money?”
Johnathan didn’t care about that and looked at Audrey dismissively, with his expression as arrogant asever.
“Audrey, just cut the crap and tell me whether you’ll give it to me or not!”
He treated Audrey so badly as if she were his maid rather than his sister. Audrey was infuriated by hisattitude and directly answered, “I have no money!”
Johnathan flared up and glared at Audrey, his eyes wide open. “Audrey, aren’t you doing variety showsand commercials these days?
How can you have no money? If you don’t want to give it to me, just say it. Don’t give me that excuse.And don’t beg me to put in a good word for you with Mommy next time. What a bummer!”
Enraged by Johnathan, Audrey gasped for breath. Johnathan was so over the line. Previously, she didask Johnathan to say something nice about her to Rachael. After all, since Rachael showed specialaffection for her only son, she would listen to his words.
The reason why she went to Johnathan for help was that he was her brother. In her eyes, it was normalthat Johnathan asked her for some money occasionally.
When Vicente was around, he was extremely strict with the pocket money for the young generation ofthe Swanns. Even Rachael didn’t dare to give too much pocket money to her children.
Among all the children of the Swanns, only Audrey had some income. Certainly, her younger siblingswould ask her for some money.
However, Audrey didn’t expect Johnathan to become even worse. He always threatened her to givehim money with the same excuse. This time, it was even greedier of him to ask for 300,000 dollars.
Audrey didn’t want to grant his wish anymore. After all, he was her brother. She said patiently,“Johnathan, you should grow up now…”
Before Audrey could finish speaking, Johnathan interrupted her impatiently. He yelled fiercely, “Audrey,who do you think you are? How can you get to tell me what to do? You’re merely an abandoneddaughter of the Swanns. How dare you lecture me now? You and that…” He was about to say jinx, butupon thinking of having been beaten up by Catherine before, he instantly shivered all over and then bithis tongue. Then, he said with disgruntlement,’ Fine. Don’t lecture me anymore. I’ll be going!”
After saying that, he left irritably. If it weren’t for Catherine here, he would definitely teach Audrey alesson. Catherine was really something. He had suffered a lot from the previous confrontations againsther, so this time, he didn’t dare to confront her anymore.
Seeing that he left in a fit of pique, Audrey felt a bit helpless. It was really troublesome to have such abrother. Audrey came back and found that Catherine was sizing her up with a strange look.
She laughed with embarrassment and said in a low voice, “Kathy, what’s wrong? Why are you lookingat me this way?”
“Does he often ask you for money?” Catherine settled her cold gaze on Audrey, not allowing her toavoid the question.
Audrey felt as if being enshrouded in tremendous pressure. Originally, she didn’t want to answer thequestion, but Catherine’s imposing manner made her have no guts to lie at all.
She nodded. “He asks me for money occasionally, but not every day. He is just a bit insensible andimmature.”
Seeing Audrey’s careful look, Catherine didn’t want to blame her. After all, she was not in the positionto do that. In Catherine’s eyes, Johnathan was not only immature but also unbelievably childish andgood-for-nothing.
If she were Audrey, she would directly get rid of him. Keeping this kind man alive was merely a wasteof food and energy. If it weren’t because he was born into the Swanns, how could he get to live such agood life?
She had promised Vicente that she would show mercy for the Swanns and not hurt them. As forKorbin, if he could behave himself, Catherine wouldn’t hurt him. However, if Korbin attempted to doanything against her, she wouldn’t let him off the hook then.
Catherine turned around and went upstairs, followed by Audrey. Feeling that Catherine was reallydispleased, Audrey just followed with her head lowered and not daring to say a word.
As she pushed the door open and saw the messy apartment, Catherine knitted her brows. The lasttime Catherine came to Audrey’s apartment, it looked fine. Why did it become so messy this time?
In fact, last time, due to the shooting, it took Audrey three days and nights to clean her apartmentbeforehand. Although Audrey had moved out of the Swanns’, she didn’t have to do chores when shelived in the Swanns’.
Back then, Vicente was in charge of the Swanns. Even if Audrey wasn’t favored, she still lived an easylife at home. How could she do the cleaning?
Audrey also saw the mess in the apartment. She laughed with embarrassment and hastened to kickaway the shoes that were blocking the door.
“I’ll clean this up right now. I’ve been busy shooting commercials these days, so I didn’t come homeand do the cleaning. Just take a rest, and I’ll clean the place right now!”
After saying that, Audrey hurriedly dashed into the bathroom, grabbed the gloves, and rushed out in ahurry.
Catherine watched her take off the ring and put on the gloves. Then, she just held Audrey’s hand.Audrey raised her head in surprise and thought Catherine wanted to help. “No need. You may sit asideand take a rest. I’ve got this!” she said.
However, Catherine took the gloves away from Audrey and made a call. “Get me a housekeeper. Theaddress is…
Then, before Audrey could react, Catherine dragged her away. When they got downstairs, Audreyrealized what Catherine had done. “Kathy, where are you taking me to?”
Catherine turned around and darted a glance at her, saying in a casual tone, “To eat!”
“Oh!” Audrey thought for a while and then took Catherine’s advice. “Okay. Let’s eat first. There is a nicerestaurant nearby. I’ll take you there.”
Catherine had no problem with that. She just couldn’t stand being in Audrey’s messy home anymore.After eating a salad, Audrey rested her chin with her hands on the table and stared at Catherine with anenvious look.
“Kathy, how I envy you! Why does your skin still look glowing even though you ate so much?” WatchingCatherine eating the delicacies, Audrey couldn’t help swallowing her saliva.
These days, to make herself look good on camera, she kept eating salads. Even at the restauranttoday, she only had eaten a salad too.novelbin
On the contrary, Catherine was eating happily here, which made Audrey water nonstop.
