All Her Secrets

Chapter 283

Donna didn’t show any mercy at all. Everyone from the Langs sat aside, watching Catherine as if theywere watching a good show.

They all didn’t like Catherine. With Rachael’s marriage to the top- class family, the Swanns, she led tothe prosperity of the entire Langs.

Catherine, who was recognized as a jinx, was thrown into the countryside from a young age. And shewas suddenly called back to inherit the entire assets of the Swanns, which made the Langs dislike her,whether out of hostility to the rich or consideration for their own interests.

They despised Catherine for growing up in the countryside and looked down on her. Watching Catherinebeing educated, everyone gloated and held back their laughter. Catherine originally had no intention ofpaying attention, but she didn’t expect the Langs to go too far.

She casually put down the fork in her hand and looked at Donna indifferently. Her pure brown eyesexuded a cold aura, which made her look as fierce as a raging beast and sharp as an eagle.

“Grandma has a point. I have no one to educate me, and my nature is wild. The Langs is a literary family.You and Grandpa are professors and great scholars, teaching and educating for so many years, but thedaughter you gave birth to is superstitious and threw away her own daughter.

“Grandma, do you think this is considered a failure in your educational milestone?”

Although everyone knew why Catherine was sent away from her childhood, no one ever mentioned itopenly.

As Catherine said, as a descendant of a literary family, Rachael was superstitious and even sent herdaughter to the countryside.

If this matter were made public, it would be a disgrace. No one expected Catherine to open up thismatter in front of so many people.

Not only did it humiliate Rachael, but it also showed no respect to Donna and Enzo. Everyone wasshocked. No one in the Langs dared to disrespect Donna and Enzo.

No one had ever dared to talk to them like that in the Langs, and Catherine was the first person who hadever dared to speak to them in such a tone.

Audrey sat aside, her eyes widening in shock. Although she agreed that Catherine’s words weredisrespectful, they sounded pleasant to her. Catherine was amazing!

Donna was so angry that she gasped for breath. She reached out and patted the table, scoldingCatherine angrily, You… You unruly girl, how dare you talk to me like that?”

Rachael hurriedly calmed her mother, smoothing her breath while glaring angrily at Catherine with hersharp eyes.

She gritted her teeth and angrily pointed at Catherine, shouting directly at her, “Catherine, I order you toapologize to your grandma right now. Do it right now!”

It had been many years since those present had seen Rachael, who had always appeared as a gentlenoblewoman, get so angry.

It could be seen how angry Rachael was this time. Everyone also began to blame Catherine as if shewere a murderer or an arsonist. Catherine didn’t say anything. She raised her head slowly, lookingaround with her cold eyes with a powerful aura.

The crowd was then instantly silenced. They had to be silent because Catherine’s aura was too powerful,and those who were glanced at by her would subconsciously panic and not dare to speak.novelbin

Only after the scene quieted down did Catherine speak unhurriedly, “If you guys don’t want to have arelationship with me, you can just say it! If you want me to sit here, then show your sincerity.

“I didn’t come here to sit and listen to a lecture.

“If you guys still want to have business dealings with the Swanns, then don’t put on such airs against me.Don’t forget who the chairperson of the Swann Corporation is now!”

She said those words lightly but it made everyone change their expressions. The people of the Langs,who were originally arrogant, now looked depressed.

Faced with the silence of the crowd, Catherine arrogantly curled up her lips and gave her final advicewith a cold smile.

“Remember, you’re not qualified to meddle in my affairs!”

After saying that, she stood up with her hands in her pockets. She looked at Donna and Enzo with anarrogant attitude.

“I’m full, so I won’t be here to affect your appetites, lest you all can’t eat!”

After saying that, Catherine turned around and left. Before leaving, she picked up Audrey by the collarwith one hand. She took the still-dazed Audrey with her forcibly!

She was worried that if she didn’t take Audrey away, Audrey would be bullied by the Langs. Only afterthe two figures completely disappeared did the Langs come back to their senses. Enzo was the first oneto speak at that time. He slapped the table angrily to vent his anger.

“It’s the first time I’ve been pointed at and humiliated like this in my life. And the person who humiliatedme is a junior in my family. I’ve lived my life in vain!”

As soon as Enzo said that, the others echoed.

“Catherine is just too much of a badass. She’s a junior but she dares to threaten her elders. We shouldreally teach her a lesson.”

The one who said this was Alyssa, who was shocked by Catherine just now. Now that she had comeback to her senses, she couldn’t wait to kill Catherine. Faced with the constant accusation of Catherinefrom the people around her, Liana was the happiest one.

She appeared obedient to comfort Donna. “Grandma, don’t be so angry. Catherine grew up in thecountryside, and she doesn’t know how to behave herself!”

As soon as she said that, Alyssa chimed in sarcastically. “She doesn’t know how to behave herself? Ithink she knows it too well. She was threatening us with the Swann Corporation? Who the hell does shethink she is? Does she think she is in charge of the Swann Corporation?”

“Alyssa, Catherine is indeed in charge of the Swann Corporation!” Adrien’s sudden words dreweveryone’s attention. Donna and Enzo’s gazes were all focused on Adrien, with a hint of exploration andconfusion in their eyes.

Adrien didn’t care about the attention of the crowd. After all, he had already understood the intention ofwhat they had just said.

He stared at Catherine all the time just now without saying a word because he wanted to see how muchCatherine could endure and whether she would seek help from him.

He didn’t expect this girl to be really tough, directly letting the whole family feel embarrassed. Heappreciated Catherine’s tough nature.

Alyssa didn’t understand Adrien’s meaning, so she took the initiative to ask, “Adrien, what do you meanby that? Could it be that Swann Corporation really wanted Catherine, a little girl, to be the leader?”

Adrien nodded slightly, agreeing with Alyssa’s words.

“That’s right, the one who is in charge of the Swann Corporation now is Catherine. As far as I know,Catherine has the most shares, and she has also passed the board of directors’ selection and hassuccessfully been elected as the chairperson of the board of directors of the Swann Corporation.

“As the chairperson of the board, Catherine has the right to decide on the future development directionand cooperation partners of the Swann Corporation!”

To put it bluntly, Catherine held the power of life and death of the Swann Corporation. With the power inher hands, she could cooperate with whomever she wanted.

If she didn’t want to cooperate with someone, she could just stop the cooperation directly.
