Chapter 470 Outright Confrontation
At the Swanns’.
Upon hearing the urgent doorbell, the servants quickly went to open the door. After opening the door,they finally saw who it was, but before they could even say hello, the visitor pushed them aside.
Audrey angrily entered the living room and happened to run into Rachael face- to-face. When Rachaelsaw Audrey’s angry appearance, her face darkened immediately.
“What’s with that look? Are you treating me like an enemy?
“This is the Swanns’. You don’t have the right to throw a tantrum here!”
Audrey was now filled with anger and had nowhere to vent. The only thing she lamented was that hergrandfather passed away early, leaving no one to help her uphold justice.
If her grandpa were there right now, her dad would have been kicked out of the house long ago. Audreycoldly stared at Rachael without the former respect from before. There was only resentment in her eyesnow.
“Where is Korbin?
“Where is he? I need to see him!”
Her angry tone shook Rachael up.
“This is not the eldest daughter that I know. Audrey always shows respect and courtesy toward us. It’simpossible for her to speak to us in this manner,” said Rachael inwardly.
Just when Rachael was wondering, Catherine lazily walked in gracefully and unhurriedly from the frontgate.
Upon seeing Catherine’s arrival, Rachael seemed to have understood something and shot a menacingglare toward Audrey. When she opened her mouth to speak, her tone was creepily sarcastic.
“Oh, I thought someone had gone crazy and lost her mind. It turns out she was just riding on someoneelse’s success and acting all high and mighty. Am I right?”
Audrey looked at Rachael in disbelief. It was difficult to believe that a mother could speak such ironicwords to her own daughter.1
She slowly snapped out of it and looked at Rachael with a gradually disappointed look in her eyes.
Rachael felt a bit unnerved by Audrey’s stare at her. She couldn’t help but furrow her brows andreprimand Audrey, “Audrey, why are you looking at me like that? How can you be so disrespectful? Doyou even still see me as your mother?”
Audrey gave a sarcastic chuckle.
“Hmph, mother?
“Mother, I would like to ask you if you have ever considered me as your daughter. If the Swanns werenot wealthy, would I have been abandoned like Kathy at a young age?”
Her attitude made Rachael suddenly unsure of what was going on. Rachael knew something musthave happened. Otherwise, Audrey wouldn’t be throwing such a tantrum.
“What’s your problem? What’s going on?”
Audrey no longer wanted to waste time talking to Rachael. She was thoroughly disappointed in themand didn’t have any expectations.
She had just gone there to clarify some things today.
Audrey’s face gradually turned cold, and her voice became much colder.
“Where is Korbin? I want to see him.”
Seeing Audrey oblivious to her presence, Rachael turned her attention to Catherine, who stood asidewith a nonchalant posture as if she were just a bystander. She walked toward Catherine and angrilypointed her finger at her.
“It must be you causing trouble and discord, right?”
“Hmph!” Catherine snorted coldly with an indifferent expression, her cold gaze not even bothering tolook at Rachael.
The two of them had a cold and arrogant attitude that completely enraged Rachael. Fuming with anger,Rachael angrily shouted at the servants next to her.novelbin
“You still standing here watching the show? What’s the use of keeping you here? Hurry up and kickthese two girls out of here. Never let them come back in!”
The servants were a bit hesitant. They exchanged glances but ultimately did not dare to defy Rachael’sorders. After all, she was the mistress of the house and was closely related to their work.
A few servants hurriedly came forward. They dared not do anything to Catherine, so they set theirsights on Audrey instead.
Catherine casually walked over to the nearby couch and sat down, flaunting a commanding attitudeand not giving a damn about the people in the room.
Audrey furrowed her brows and stared at the servants surrounding her, shouting angrily, “What are youdoing here? This is none of your business. Get out of here!”
Because of Rachael’s threat, the servants were forced to take action against Audrey. However, beforethe servant’s hands even touched Audrey, he was hit on the arm by a black shadow, leaving himscreaming in pain.
After the black shadow landed, everyone realized that the thing was not a mysterious weapon but apiece of candy.
A piece of candy that was on the coffee table in the living room.
Catherine lazily leaned on the sofa, casually crossing her long legs. Her eyes were slightly narrowedwith a hint of danger as she gazed at the servants.
“Anyone wanna snack on some candy?”
It was just a simple sentence, but it made all the servants turn pale with fear. Everyone knew thatCatherine was a unique presence, and no one should dare to offend her in the Swanns.
Even the most favored young master, Johnathan, got exiled because he offended Catherine. Now,none of the servants knew where he had been placed.
The servant whom Catherine just hit with the candy was still on the side, wailing and moaning in agony.
It was worth noting that this servant was not only tall and sturdy but also renowned in the Swanns’ forhis great strength and pain tolerance. If even he was in such pain, one could only imagine the painexperienced by others.
The servants were too afraid to approach, which made Rachael burst into fury.
“What? Are you all going to turn against me?” she said.
“What could possibly be worth you making a scene here?”
Korbin’s voice came down from upstairs before he appeared in front of everyone. When he saw Audreyand Catherine, there was a flicker of surprise in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Although it disappeared quickly, Audrey, who had been keeping an eye on him, noticed it.
She had noticed it, let alone Catherine. Korbin calmly approached everyone and even chattedanimatedly with Audrey.
“You’re not out there being a big star? How do you have time to come to the Swanns’?”
Before Audrey could answer, Rachael couldn’t help but stand up to complain.
“Now that she has grown up, she dares to cause trouble at the Swanns. Korbin, you better take care ofthese two girls today and make sure they don’t act this arrogantly anymore!”
Korbin glanced back at Rachael, his eyes slightly narrowed and his face showing a hint of displeasure.
Rachael immediately shut her mouth and dared not say another word. Korbin glanced at Audrey andfinally settled his cold gaze on Catherine with a terrifying, sinister look.
He didn’t expect Catherine to be so damn lucky and managed to escape yet another fucking close call.
“What exactly are the two of you doing here at the Swanns’ today?”
After hearing what Korbin said, Catherine uncrossed her legs and lifted her gaze to focus on him.
“The slightly lifted edges of her eyes bore an eerie smile.”
“Since you have gone to such great lengths to see us, why don’t we just come to you ourselves,Father?”
As soon as these words came out, Korbin’s face immediately darkened.
“I’m afraid these two girls are here to cause trouble today,” he thought.
