Chapter 671 The Person Behind the Scene
Ten minutes later, Catherine emerged from the doctor's office. Audrey's surgical outcome was even more perfect than she had anticipated. The wound had
already begun to heal well, showing positive progress.
Having learned the information, Catherine didn't bother to greet Audrey in the ward; instead, she walked straight out of the hospital.
Just as she exited, she spotted Paxton waiting by the car door.
Sensing her presence, Paxton immediately approached and bowed respectfully just a step away. "Miss Swann, Mr. Duncan had to return to Casier today due to urgent matters."
Knowing Paxton wouldn't come without a reason, Catherine inquired, " Did you get any updates on the investigation you were assigned last night?"
"Yes." Paxton nodded. He was here for that very reason. He had rushed to the hospital entrance upon learning of Catherine's arrival.
"Get in the car," Catherine said, bending down and entering the vehicle.
Paxton swiftly took the driver's seat. " Miss Swann, our people visited the filming locations of Miss Audrey's recent shoots. There was no trace indicating it was man-made. The incident seems genuinely caused by the aging of props within the production crew."
Catherine wasn't surprised by this news. It would have been discovered long ago if it were that easy to uncover, given Triston's concern for Audrey.
Paxton also knew that such reasons wouldn't convince Catherine, so he brought something else with him. "Miss Swann, take a look at this." He handed over all the available surveillance footage from the days of the incident.
He arranged for an overnight team to examine the footage and selected several crucial video clips. Although the footage showed nothing unusual, Paxton couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. He copied the videos and handed them to Catherine.
Catherine instructed Paxton to drive her back to the university. During the journey, she thoroughly reviewed the surveillance footage provided by Paxton. Subsequently, she noticed something unusual.
The car came to a halt at the entrance of Styre University, and at that moment, Catherine handed the tablet to Paxton, indicating a person circled on the screen. "Investigate this person," she said.
Paxton was a bit puzzled. He had scrutinized these videos countless times and failed to identify any issues. But it took Catherine only a short while to find a crucial point. "Miss Swann..." Paxton hesitated.
Seeing that he hadn't grasped it yet, Catherine explained, "This person appeared in all three scenes."
Paxton rewound the footage for another look. Without Catherine's prompt, he might not have noticed. The person changed his appearance each time, adopting inconspicuous outfits with specially altered facial features, presenting a significantly different look on each occasion.
It would be challenging for an ordinary person to recognize him even face to face, let alone in surveillance footage. However, Catherine spotted this detail at a glance. She was indeed extraordinary.
"Miss Swann, rest assured. I'll investigate and identify this person," said Paxton.
"Thank you!" Catherine politely expressed her gratitude, then got out of the car and headed toward the laboratory.
After leaving the hospital, Andrea returned to the Silvas'.
Upon seeing her, Tasha immediately approached, her face smiling as she said, "Andrea, I heard Mr. Lambert has been in Loxton lately. If you have time, invite him over for a meal at our place. We'd like to meet him and get acquainted."
Andrea, looking fatigued, politely declined and said, "Mom, Triston is indeed in Loxton, but he's busy with the company's affairs and doesn't have time to come."
Tasha's expression changed immediately. Her once gentle and smiling face turned dark. "Andrea, no matter what you think, I'm telling you, you must marry into the Lamberts. If you can't even hold onto Triston, then there's no point in staying in this family. You are more aware of our family's current situation than anyone else. With that bitch outside watching, if you don't marry into the Lamberts, how will your brother inherit the Silvas?
Andrea's father had an illegitimate child outside, only one year younger than Andrea. In recent years, her father had shown increasing favoritism toward the child outside the family, causing Tasha to panic, fearing someone might snatch away her son's inheritance.
Tired of hearing the same arguments, Andrea knew arguing with her mother was pointless. "Mom, I just separated from Triston. He's currently working on a project with Mr. Duncan and is genuinely busy. Give it some time, and I'll talk to him later."
Tasha's expression changed again when she heard that Andrea had just
separated from Triston. "Mr. Duncan is currently the most prominent figure in the entire Loxton. Mr. Lambert is friends with him, and his future is limitless. Andrea, I won't harm you; you must hold on to Mr. Lambert."
Andrea nodded earnestly, though her heart felt bitter.
This time, it wasn't her choice, but her mother was right-Triston must be hers.
"Mom, I'm a bit tired. I want to rest upstairs." Andrea found an excuse and
escaped upstairs to avoid another round of nagging.
Andrea's phone rang as soon as she reached her room. Glancing at the caller ID, she picked up the phone and casually threw it aside. "Why bother calling me now?" she asked indifferently.
"I heard you're going to marry Triston? "Emma asked tentatively.
Andrea sneered silently. "You're quite well-informed. We haven't announced it
publicly, and you already know."
Emma then suggested meeting, but Andrea didn't want much interaction with her.

Once, out of consideration for her
being the daughter of the Wales, Andrea was willing to associate with NO her. But now, with the Wales' defeat, they had become the laughingstock of the entire Loxton overnight. The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!
In order to save the family from crisis, Emma was treated as a plaything and given to Kamren. This kind of person was no longer worthy of being her friend.

However, Emma seemed to sense
Andrea's thoughts and said mysteriously, "If you really want to
marry into the Lamberts, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. After all, I heard that Mr. Lambert is enamored with the Swanns' eldest daughter." The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!
She referred to Catherine's sister, Audrey. Emma regarded Catherine as an enemy, and she paid more attention to Catherine than others.
Hearing the implied meaning in Emma's words, Andrea asked, “What do you
mean?"

Emma chuckled lightly, "Oh, nothing
in particular. It's just that I've known Catherine and her sister for a long time and have learned some things. If you really want to marry Triston, I might be able to help you." The content is on bignovels.com! Read

After a moment of consideration, Andrea decided to meet Emma. "I'll let you
know once I've set the time and place."
After hanging up, Andrea looked out of the window with narrowed eyes. Since
she couldn't escape, she would accept it. "Triston must be mine, and no one could take him away," she said inwardly.
