Chapter 126 Run Away from Home

Catherine was not interested in the piano at all. Nor did she give a shit about Rachael’s disapproving gaze. Those whom she didn’t care about couldn’t affect her mood even a tiny bit.

Catherine walked past Rachael and happened to see Liana running in her direction. Upon seeing Catherine, Liana looked complacent and even showed a provocative smile to her.

Then, Liana sprang toward Rachael and said in a sweet voice, “Mommy, you’re the best. Just because you heard that I would attend the school party, you bought me such an expensive piano. Mommy, I love you so much!”

When Catherine turned her head, Rachael happened to pat the back of Liana’s hand gently and smiled at her with an amiable expression. “You’re my daughter. Of course, I love you. Just do your best at the contest with assurance and leave the rest to me.”

In the face of this scene, Catherine’s dreamy eyes slightly darkened a bit, and a hint of aloofness touched her lips.

Liana was Rachael’s daughter?

What about Catherine?

What about Audrey?

What were they to Rachael? Since the piano was placed in the Swanns’, the sound of piano playing had never ceased as long as Liana was at home.

Liana kept practicing piano crazily every day. Korbin had to socialize often and barely came back home. So, this had little impact on him. To show support for Liana, Rachael just let her do whatever she wanted.

Catherine was the most affected one. Lying in bed and listening to the terrible sound of the piano, she couldn’t help knitting her brows. Didn’t Liana claim to be a talented pianist? Why did she keep making mistakes during the practice?

The music should be beautiful, but Liana’s performance was horrible. Catherine was about to go out and talk to Liana to solve the problem when someone knocked on the door.

She slowly got up. As soon as she opened the door, leaving a tiny gap, the door was heavily pushed open by Audrey. Audrey went into the room and sat on the chair abruptly.

No sooner had she been seated, she said to Catherine in a hurry, ” Catherine, pack your clothes and go with me now!” Catherine stared at her in shock and didn’t understand what was going on.

“Isn’t the show on the weekend?”

Audrey recognized that Catherine had gotten her wrong and hastened to explain, “Not for the show. I’m asking you to stay at my place for a few days. My place is closer to your school. Hurry and pack your things. Let’s go.”

Catherine arched her brows and stared at Audrey, saying coldly, “Tell me why!

“Why else would I do this? How can you still ask me why? I’ve heard from the maid that Liana is practicing piano crazily at home. She doesn’t need to rest, but you need to. You’ve already had enough stress from school. How can you have the energy to stand all the noise she is making? You’ll move back after the school party is over.”

Audrey happened to have no job today. Originally, she planned to come back for Catherine. However, to her surprise, upon entering the house, she heard Liana practicing piano in the living room.

There was actually a soundproof room in the house, but Liana didn’t practice in that room. She insisted on playing in the living room, saying that it was more aligned with the atmosphere on the stage. She was literally insane!

Initially, Audrey didn’t mean to meddle in this matter. When she heard a maid’s complaint inadvertently, she learned that Liana had been really crazy these days.

She hastened to check on Catherine’s situation and found that the noise could be heard even from the basement.

Catherine didn’t like to be disturbed during her rest, which Audrey was aware of. As Liana kept doing this, Catherine could hardly sleep well. For Catherine to live a peaceful life, Audrey must take her away.

Audrey thought, “Catherine has just come back. She must have nowhere else to go but the Swanns’. In such a situation, she probably has no chance to escape.

“So, I must take her away from this terrible environment to keep her from being harmed.” Catherine originally intended to go out and tell Liana that if Liana made noises again, she would be kicked out of the Swanns’.

However, Audrey came and claimed to take her away. Audrey noticed that Catherine was standing still and couldn’t help urging her, “What are you waiting for? Get moving and pack your things. We’re leaving now.

Audrey thought Catherine didn’t want to cause her trouble and hastened to say, “Just come with me. I have to work every day and rarely stay at home. So, you won’t make trouble for me. Just listen to me for once. I’m your sister!”

Sister?

Audrey’s words reminded Catherine of the scene where Rachael was with Liana. Maybe Catherine and Audrey were sisters, but this had nothing to do with Rachael.

Catherine didn’t replace it a problem to go with Audrey. After thinking it through, Catherine lifted her bag and showed it to Audrey.” Let’s go!”

Audrey was a bit surprised to see that Catherine only took a bag without packing her things. Yet, she came around soon. After all, Catherine only brought a bag with her to a two-day show. Perhaps, this was the force of habit.

This also happened to give Audrey a good chance to buy clothes for Catherine. When Liana heard from the servant that Catherine would be away with Audrey for a few days, her face remained composed.

In her eyes, it was even better that Catherine left. After all, she didn’t want to see Catherine around.

Catherine didn’t belong to this home. She should have long left.

Liana was the real lady of the Swanns. She was dismissive as she heard Audrey had become close to Catherine. She believed that it was merely two losers being together for some warmth. Of course, she wouldn’t envy them. She didn’t give a shit about Audrey at all!

When Catherine followed Audrey to the latter’s own apartment, unexpectedly, they came across Johnathan.

Johnathan was a bit surprised to see that Catherine was standing next to Audrey. Then, he exclaimed in shock, ” Why are you here?”

Catherine stared at him coldly, sending shivers down Johnathan’s spine. Ever since he was beaten up by Catherine, he had been somewhat scared of Catherine. He found her too terrifying, for she had the nerve to hit him.

Most importantly, after he was hit by her, his parents still couldn’t force Catherine out of their home. Johnathan didn’t understand why his grandpa would leave the assets of the Swanns to Catherine rather than the only grandson.

After all, he was the most legally qualified person to inherit the assets of the Swanns. Yet, Catherine was the inheritor. This was literally a joke.

No matter how dissatisfied he felt, Johnathan didn’t dare to voice it out in front of Catherine. He grabbed Audrey’s arm and pulled her to him, saying in a domineering voice, “Come with me!”

Audrey felt a bit resigned. She knew why Johnathan was here. She knew that her wretched brother must be here for a motive.

After they walked for a distance, Johnathan finally stopped and raised his head arrogantly. He said to Audrey in a stiff voice, “I’m hard up for money recently. Give me 300,000 dollars!”
