All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 234 Realization
Yesenia was not dumb. How could a girl born into the Duncans and raised by Karl be foolish? With Bryan taking care of her and
playing with her, how could she be anything but astute?
She was just too young, so there were things she didn’t really understand yet.
When she encountered more shrewd people, it was easy for her to get lost. Moreover, she was born into a wealthy family and
had been showered with love and affection. Naturally, she became arrogant and overbearing.
After receiving some advice from Triston, Yesenia began to awaken to realizations.
“Could it be that I have truly misunderstood Catherine?
“Is it possible that Catherine is not as despicable as I imagine?
“Uncle Branden is not an ordinary person. Any evil person would have to reveal their true colors before him and obediently await
punishment.
“Since Catherine has gained the recognition of Uncle Branden and is respected by Bryan, she must have some exceptional
qualities,” said she inwardly.
Yesenia glanced back at the several women behind her, feeling a hint of suspicion in her heart. Seeing that she had already
come to her senses, Triston couldn’t be bothered to deal with this group of girls anymore.
He left the scene with his hands in his pockets. Branden dragged Catherine to the rest area. As soon as she sat down, Paxton
brought over the prepared fruits and placed them in front of Catherine.
These were all the tropical fruits that Catherine loved. They were washed, cut neatly, and arranged beautifully on the plate.
Branden discovered that although Catherine didn’t like sweets, she did not resist the sugar content of fruits.
However, she didn’t like fruits that needed to be peeled, and the reason was that she was lazy. However, if someone cut the fruit
nicely and served it to her like Ronin did, she could still accept it.
Catherine glanced at the brightly colored fruits, which looked particularly tempting. She didn’t delay and picked up the skewer,
sitting down and eating it right away.

Aidan and the others were sitting on the side, watching Branden attend to Catherine like caring for a child. Branden occasionally
handed her tissues and such, leaving the people present dumbfounded.
On the other hand, Triston covered his eyes, unable to bear the sight. As a single man, he couldn’t bear to witness this scene.
“Don’t just stand here. Since you guys don’t want to soak in the hot springs, why not have some fun in the recreation area?
What’s the point of staring at others?” said Triston.
Aidan agreed with Triston for the first time. Watching someone else being lovey-dovey was indeed dull. Before they left, they
brought Bryan and Ronin with them.
So many third wheels being present with lovers was not suitable. A short while after they left, Loraine arrived. All her girls were
there, but only she dared approach Catherine.
Loraine portrayed herself with grace and elegance. Her face was adorned with a slight smile as if the unpleasant incident that
had just occurred had never happened. She first greeted Branden, “Branden, it’s been a while since we last met!”
Branden was wholly focused on Catherine, not even giving an extra glance at her. Loraine’s face showed a hint of
embarrassment, with a cold and gloomy shade passing through her eyes. However, she quickly concealed it.
She thought she was hiding it quickly, unaware that everyone around her could see it very clearly. Even Yesenia noticed that.
One of the reasons why she got along well with Loraine was Loraine was truly outstanding.
Loraine held the title of the number one socialite lady in Casier, not only due to her honorable family background but also her
exceptional talent and knowledge.
Furthermore, she had a strong and confident temperament and was sent to undergo military training for a few years. In times of
crisis, she remained calm and collected, making her the ideal marriage partner of many prominent families.
Furthermore, she was Branden’s classmate and one of the few girls who could appear beside him. There had been rumors
circulating that she was the girlfriend of Branden. Yesenia had also witnessed several interactions between Loraine and
Branden.
It should be known that Branden had a slight case of mysophobia when it came to women. There were hardly any female maids
in his house. Even more astonishing was that the entire floor of the president’s office lacked even a single female staff member.

Loraine’s presence by Branden’s side led Yesenia to naturally perceive Loraine as a special presence. Thinking that they would
be a family in the future, Yesenia got closer to her to avoid any future estrangement.
In addition to Loraine’s kindness toward her, there was a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze when she was around such a
highly thoughtful girl, which was why Yesenia gradually grew closer to Loraine.
However, upon witnessing Branden’s attitude toward Loraine today, Yesenia was fully aware that there was no relationship
between her uncle and Loraine.
Noticing that Branden was ignoring her and only had his eyes on Catherine, Loraine shifted her gaze toward Catherine.
“Miss Swann, I am Loraine Sanford!”
Catherine happened to be munching on a slice of cantaloupe. When she heard Loraine calling out to her, she slowly raised her
head. With her rosy lips still biting onto the fruit, she gazed at Loraine innocently.
With a questioning look, she seemed to ask, “What’s the matter?” Loraine had a gentle, perfect smile, exuding the elegance of a
high society lady.
“Miss Swann, I apologize for any misunderstanding that occurred between us today. I have come here specifically to offer my
sincere apologies, and I hope you can forgive me.”
Triston and the others also noticed the situation here. After watching Loraine’s performance, Triston applauded her inwardly.
“It must be admitted that Loraine can become Casier’s number one socialite lady for a reason.
“Her demeanor is impressive!
“She can be flexible and adaptable. Even if she may be infuriated inside, she can still maintain a calm and composed
appearance, which is her remarkable trait,” thought he.
Catherine finally managed to swallow the cantaloupe. The next second, Branden handed her a cherry. She was somewhat
disgusted, turning her head away.
Branden coaxed her like a child, saying, “Just one more!”

When she saw the interaction between the two, Loraine’s hand hanging by her side clenched into a fist. Under her continuous
force, her intricately decorated nails forcefully stuck into the flesh of the palm.
It was often said that the pain in your fingers was the most unbearable, so her pain could be imagined. Loraine still had a smile
on her face. Only with this kind of pain could she suppress her inner emotions and maintain the most elegant smile.
Standing behind, Jessica saw this scene and quietly recorded it with her phone. After she took the video, she sent it to her good
friend Liana when no one was paying attention.
Catherine reluctantly ate the cherry and then glanced casually at Loraine. A slight smile appeared on her stunningly beautiful
face as she looked at Loraine.
Loraine was behaving generously, so she must also show generosity to avoid being rude. With a nonchalant glance, Catherine
lazily scanned Loraine. She comfortably leaned back on the leather sofa, assuming a posture that made her comfortable.
“No need to apologize. I have to thank you.”
Loraine looked at Catherine skeptically. “Miss Swann, what do you mean?”
Catherine smiled. Her beauty was indescribable. Her delicate pink lips slightly parted, slowly uttering a few words, “Thank you for
sending two people to help me relieve the boredom!”
Triston and the others secretly gave a thumbs up. “Catherine is indeed a pro. “When it comes to being sarcastic, no one can
match her wit,” said they inwardly.
