All Her Secrets

Chapter 284 Girlfriend Exclusive

The news brought by Adrien left the Langs in shock. They had no idea about the specifics of what was happening within the Swanns.

In their eyes, Catherine was just a little girl who was harmless and non-threatening.

Enzo reacted first and looked toward Adrien.

'Adrien, are you sure about what you're saying?"

After hearing that, Adrien smiled. He had spent years in rigorous training, which had left his skin darker than usual. It made his bright white teeth stand out even more.

"Dad, do I have any reason to lie?"

"Adrien, you misunderstand. It's just that it's strange for you to bring up Catherine suddenly. You've never been interested in these matters before. How did you suddenly become aware of the Swanns' internal affairs?"

What puzzled Enzo the most was this point. Adrien had never cared about the Langs' interactions or business dealings.

This had been the case since he was a child. However, ever since Catherine appeared, Enzo felt that Adrien's attention to her far exceeded his interest in anyone else.

Facing Enzo's questioning, Adrien replied calmly.

"Dad, the Swann Corporation will announce a multinational chip collaboration next month. It's not just major companies paying attention. The government is also highly interested. Dad, that's all I can say."

After hearing that, Enzo instantly understood.

Many of Adrien's work matters couldn't be disclosed to the outside world, not even to family.

"I understand, Adrien. Be careful. As your family, we will fully support you. Irreversible mistakes must not be made!"

The Langs would not let go of Adrien.

Enzo realized that Adrien must know something significant, or Adrien wouldn't be so confident.

Enzo turned his head to look at Rachael and asked in a low voice, "What's really going on?"

Rachael lowered her head slightly and remained silent.

Enzo always knew Rachael's thoughts. He quickly realized that Adrien must be aware of the truth.

Enzo was somewhat angry at Rachael's concealment. Moreover, he was concerned about the Langs' future.

The ties between the Langs and the Swanns ran deep. Rachael was not close to the Langs and even harbored some grievances. If Rachael controlled the Swanns, it would be very unfavorable for the Langs.

At this moment, with so many people around, it wasn't the right time to discuss further.

Enzo stood up and said, "Alright. That's enough for today. You can leave now."

No one dared to defy Enzo. They could tell his mood wasn't good, so they left quietly.

However, Adrien's confirmation influenced the thoughts of the Langs.

Their attitudes toward Catherine had shifted significantly.

Liana followed Rachael out of the Langs'. As soon as they got into the car, Liana couldn't help but ask Rachael. 'Mommy, is Catherine as powerful as Uncle said?"

Rachael was still furious. She had thought that today, she could completely get rid of Catherine, but instead of eliminating her, it had brought a lot of trouble. She was infuriated.

"Enough. Just be quiet. Instead of asking about these things, you should focus on yourself.

*I've put so much effort into nurturing you. I have hired top tutors for you since your childhood. Yet you can't even defeat a country bumpkin girl who never had an education. Do you have the audacity to say anything here?"

Liana couldn't lift her head under the scolding, and her cheeks burned with embarrassment.

She used to be Rachael's pride, but now she had become a stain that people used to mock Rachael.

Not to mention Rachael, even Liana couldn't forgive herself.

Liana thought all of this was because of Catherine.

She thought inwardly, 'Catherine is a jinx. Why does she still live in this world?"

At the same time, Branden personally drove to the Langs' to pick up Catherine.

Audrey was surprised when she saw him driving alone.

The Duncans' wealth was beyond measure, and they certainly could afford a driver.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

The only plausible explanation was Branden deliberately chose to drive himself to display his affection for Catherine.

As a tycoon, Branden chose to be the chauffeur himself. It was a clear sign of his deep regard for Catherine. Audrey obediently opened the car door and got in. Before Catherine could join her, Audrey closed the door.

Catherine looked a bit puzzled and frowned slightly.

After being scrutinized by Catherine, Audrey felt a sudden chill down her spine.

Catherine's aura seemed inexplicably formidable, and her gaze was terrifying.

Audrey forced an awkward smile. "Kathy, why don't you take the front seat? I'll sit in the back for some extra space. I want to rest a bit."

In Branden's top-tier luxury car, there was never a shortage of space in the back. The two of them could practically lie down comfortably. Audrey used a flimsy excuse. Catherine didn't make a fuss. She thought inwardly, "If that's what she wants, so be it." Catherine reached over and opened the front passenger door. Then she took her place there. As they drove for a while, Audrey couldn't bear the deafening silence in the car any longer. She began to wonder if Branden was doing this intentionally. He didn't even play any music.

To avoid feeling suffocated, Audrey cautiously started a conversation.

"Do you guys use short videos? They're all talking about how the front passenger seat is the exclusive seat for the girlfriend. Once a girlfriend sits there, no one else can sit there again. Some even put a 'Girlfriend Exclusive

sticker on it.'

Audrey finished her words and chuckled. When she realized there was no response, she felt incredibly awkward.

Upon reflection, she acknowledged that her topic choice was indeed rather peculiar.

After glancing at Catherine, who was expressionless, Audrey was about to laugh it off and break the silence.

To her surprise, Branden suddenly chimed in.

He said, "Sure."

"What?" Audrey was shocked. She didn't understand what Branden meant.

In the next moment, Branden kindly provided an explanation.

"I'll ask Paxton to put a 'Girlfriend Exclusive' label on the front passenger seat later."

Audrey was genuinely stunned by the dignified response from Branden. She couldn't believe that her casual topic

had been taken so seriously.

Catherine shifted her gaze to the man driving attentively beside her. Her tone was nonchalant with a hint of

mockery.

"Do you follow these trends, too?" she asked.

Branden gently glanced at Catherine with his deep eyes. He smiled warmly.

*I make sure you have everything others do," he replied.

He made sure Catherine received all the treatment that a girlfriend should have.

It was not just that. Branden would give Catherine the best treatment possible. In Branden's view, Catherine

deserved the very best.

Catherine didn't respond. She casually played with her phone.

However, on her delicate face, a faint smile flashed across her rosy lips. It revealed her inner thoughts.

Audrey sat quietly in the backseat and endured their public display of affection.

As they said, it was the most lethal when a big shot got serious.

Audrey regretted that she had gotten into this car in the first place. She was utterly overwhelmed by their public

display of affection.

Moreover, she regretted having brought up this topic for no reason. Now, she had to face the consequences.
