ALL HER SECRETS - Season 1 Episode 81

Audrey did not go far. She just sat by the fountain outside the shopping mall, so it did not take long for

Catherine to catch up with her.

Catherine approached Audrey, and that was it. She had never dealt with such things and had no idea

how to comfort Audrey.

If it were someone else, Catherine would not bother caring. She turned to look at Branden, wondering if

he could come up with an idea.

Branden could help her with many things, but his hands were tied too in this aspect.

However, Branden could not bear to look at Catherine’s frowning face. He had no such experiences,

but someone else had.

Therefore, the three who were supposed to go to the barbecue restaurant ended up in a newly opened

bar in Casier.

They went there because of Triston.

Triston hit it off right away with Audrey. He held Audrey’s hand and had a great talk with her.

Catherine crossed her arms before her chest and stared at Branden near her doubtfully. She muttered,

“Will it work?”

Branden mulled it over and raised his brows at Catherine, muttering to answer her. “Who knows if we

don’t give it a try?”

Catherine thought his words had a point. She thought of what she would do if it were her. She would

get Erik tied up and throw him under Audrey’s feet. She would avoid the vital parts of Erik’s body,

stabbing him a hundred times to vent her anger without getting Erik killed.

Anyway, she could make up the forensic analysis to show those were flesh wounds. At most, she

would pay for Erik’s medical fee.

Catherine got bored and took an interest in a glass of whisky aside. She took it and was about to drink.

Suddenly, an arm stretched out to stop her.

Unlike the last time when Branden took the glass away from her hand, he now leaned toward her hand

and drank the whisky while she was holding it.

After gulping the whisky, he looked at Catherine with fun and said in a deep but rather hoarse voice.

“Little girls are not allowed to drink alcohol.”

Catherine did not respond but fixed her beautiful eyes on him with bafflement.

Branden got closer to her, his warm breath spraying on her face, tangling with a light

fragrance of whisky. He squinted his eyes, and in them was relaxation mixed with enchantment. His

voice became even lower and more magnetic, tugging Catherine’s heartstrings.

“Do not stare at me like that, or I cannot promise not to do anything to you.”

Catherine suddenly had a heart for playing. She had not prepared for it the last time and let

him influence her.

Now, she would not allow him to influence her again.

Branden knew how to be seductive, and so did she.

Since Branden was so close to her, she pressed her lips against his ears and blew softly. There

seemed to be endless tenderness in her husky voice.

“Yeah? I can give it a try about the thing you mentioned.”

She sounded like a siren, and her face was too delicate. She was so alluring, and Branden could

not resist.

Branden had always been proud of his self-control. But now, he was beaten. He felt a flame burning

inside him.

Branden laughed at himself secretly. It was the first time he had that feeling in all his life.

To avoid humiliating himself, he stood up and left the booth.

He needed to go to the washroom to deal with the problem happening to his body.

Catherine watched as Branden skedaddled, and there was a touch of a faint smile playing on her sexy

red lips.

She whupped Branden in this round.

While Branden was away, Audrey drank a lot under the persuasion of Triston.

Since Branden had not returned, Audrey dashed to Catherine.

She pounced at Catherine and was ready to give Catherine a bear hug. But she froze instantly due to

Catherine’s chilly gaze.

“Burp.”

Audrey gave an enormous hiccup out of fright.

Seeing Audrey’s silly look, Catherine wanted to laugh and was less likely to push Audrey away.

Folding her arms, Catherine squinted at Audrey and asked, “Go ahead. What do you want to ask?”

Audrey was confused at first. Soon, she collected herself and gaped at Catherine.

“Kathy, how do you know I have a question to ask you?”

Catherine rolled her eyes at her without replying to her question.

However, Audrey felt awkward under Catherine’s rolling, eyes, as if a basin of cold water was pouring

down from her head.

Catherine’s look was too sarcastic. Audrey felt like she was an idiot in front of Catherine.

That was very frustrating.

Audrey was ready to leave in sadness.

But a voice rang out behind her, “Don’t you want to ask me the question?”

Only then did Audrey recall she was here to ask Catherine a question.

She had not asked yet. How could she leave just like that?

She turned around and stared at Catherine earnestly. “Kathy, when did you find out the jerk cheated on

me?”

Audrey thought of how Catherine suddenly pulled her away at the mall. It must be that Catherine had

seen Erik already and did not want her to be heartbroken.

Catherine probably had known about it long ago, and Audrey was trying to figure out when it

Was.

Catherine had thought that Audrey would have forgotten the scumbag under Triston’s persuasion. It

seemed she overestimated Audrey’s ability.

“One day earlier than you. I met them by accident.”

Audrey nodded. Catherine made the story brief, but Audrey understood everything.

Thinking that Catherine knew it only one day earlier and did not hide it from her on purpose, Audrey

unloosened the knot that held her.

But the idea that Erik had been cheating on her still broke her heart.

Audrey pouted as she looked at Catherine, seeming that she was about to cry at any moment. She

complained, “Kathy, I loved him so much. After everything I’ve done for him, how could he do that to

me?”

Catherine’s brows drew together tight. Her eyes became sharper, and then she cast them down.

Audrey was still babbling when Catherine strode away from her.

Seeing her leave, Audrey blurted out. “Kathy, where are you going?”

Catherine answered her without looking back, “Tie Erik up and get him here so that you can stab him a

hundred times.”

Audrey stared at Catherine, gobsmacked. Her mouth opened wide, but she could not utter a

sound.

Triston, who was going to come to persuade Audrey to get drunk, heard Catherine’s plan and

experienced a thrill of fear. He thought Catherine was indeed a badass.

Audrey knew Catherine would walk the talk, so she trotted forward to hold Catherine’s hand.

“Kathy, you can’t do this. Murdering him is a crime.”

With an evil smile, Catherine turned around and said, “Don’t worry. I will teach you how to avoid vital

parts and make them minor wounds.”

Audrey was shocked by Catherine’s explanation.

How crafty Catherine was!

Catherine was getting going when Audrey reached out again to stop her. “Forget it, Catherine. I’m not

mad anymore. Don’t go.”

Stabbing Erik would be too gory and was not what Audrey wanted to see.

Catherine’s brows were still knotted, and she asked with a hint of doubt, “Do you want to spare him?”

Audrey did not dare to show any hesitation. She said, “Yes, I do. It’s my luck to find out he cheated on

me.”

She added excitedly, “I decided to focus on my career. I’ve lost my love and can’t lose my career

either.”

Since Audrey was all right, Catherine gave up the thought of kidnapping Erik. It did not matter to her

whether to stab Erik or not. All she wished was for Audrey to be happy.
