Chapter 288 Phony

Liana wore an expression that clearly showed her reluctance to engage in conversation with Johnathan. Her gaze purposely avoided meeting his. “Forget it. There’s no way to explain this situation clearly. Just chill and take care of yourself!”

Jonathan knew in his heart that Liana was up to no good. But he couldn’t resist his curiosity, so he grabbed Liana by the wrist and wouldn’t let her leave.

“Explain the situation clearly to me. What is going on?” he asked. “If you want to leave, you must make everything clear. Otherwise, don’t even think about stepping out of the door,” said he inwardly.

Liana had a hesitant expression as she said, “Forget it. Just consider it as me being impulsive for a moment. Mommy instructed me not to let you know it because you tend to be impetuous, and it could cause a lot of trouble if you found out.”

“What’s the trouble? Are you thinking I would kill Catherine or something?” Johnathan exclaimed with a hint of agitation.

“I was afraid you were gonna do something stupid!” said Liana casually. She might have said something without any hidden intention, but Johnathan interpreted it differently due to his own motives.

He immediately caught on, staring at Liana with a fierce gaze. “What do you mean by that? Are you saying that I got hurt because of Catherine?”

Liana sighed helplessly. “Since you already know, I won’t hide it anymore. But I’m also not sure about this matter. Father discovered it. He said that your car accident was not an accident, and he suspected it was the doing of Catherine.”

Liana specifically emphasized it once again. “Father was just suspecting it.”

“Bullshit!” cursed Johnathan. “I know it. With my excellent driving skills, how could I have had an accident while turning the corner?

“Turns out someone has tampered with it! “That Catherine is such a jinx, causing me so much suffering in the hospital. I won’t let her get away with it, no way,” said he inwardly.

Johnathan was so sure about it because he knew his father well. He knew how cautious his father was in doing things. Something like a suspect was just an excuse.

“It must be that Catherine is jealous of me being the only boy in the Swanns and wants to harm me so that no one else could compete for the Swanns’ wealth with her.

“Unexpectedly, I survived the car accident. I promise that I will make her suffer greatly,” thought he.

Liana consoled him with pretending sincerity, “Take care of yourself. Don’t worry about these matters. Father will take care of everything for us, so please don’t take action on your own!”

“If Father can handle it, would I be lying here now?

“I finally see through it. Father couldn’t handle this matter effectively. “He is way too cautious and scared to lay a hand on Catherine because he’s worried about the powerful force behind that girl.

“He is absolutely foolish! “What is there to be afraid of? Those people are just acting arrogantly because of the will left by Grandpa.

“Without that will, they would be nothing. “Since Catherine dared to make a move against me, don’t expect me to care about the sibling relationship. I have to get rid of her.

“As long as I get rid of Catherine, those people won’t have any more reasons to fight against Father. “My father is old and indecisive. If this matter had been handed to me, it would have been finished long ago,” thought Johnathan.

Seeing that Liana was still standing there, he impatiently waved his hand toward her.

“Hurry up and leave. Don’t be a nuisance here. I get annoyed just seeing you!” Before being driven away by Johnathan, Liana offered him some advice helplessly.

“Johnathan, you better remember, don’t do anything stupid. You’re no match for Catherine, and Mommy won’t forgive me if something goes wrong!”

“Okay, okay, I got it!” Jonathan put on a look like he was about to get angry before finally driving Liana away.

He thought that Liana was one of those girls with long hair but not much brains. “Before, I prioritized the relationship between siblings and always treated Catherine with kindness.

“If I were to really take action, would Catherine be my match?

“That is absolutely impossible!

“Now that she dared to attack me, I will surely retaliate against her and make her completely disappear.

“My leg has been hurting for so many days.

“If I don’t teach her a lesson, I’ll really end up being stepped on and humiliated by Catherine in the future,” said he inwardly.

Liana’s worried expression changed the moment she walked out of the ward. She slowly curled her lips, revealing a hint of a cold smirk. Her goal had been achieved. “Now, I’ll just wait and see how Johnathan deals with that jinx, Catherine.

“If Johnathan could just get rid of her directly, that would be the best scenario. But if that’s not possible, causing trouble for her would also be a great accomplishment.

“No matter what, since Catherine dares to treat me this way, she shouldn’t be surprised if I retaliated against her with no mercy,” said Liana inwardly.

The three-day holiday just started. Catherine got a message from Ronin early in the morning telling her to be on time for rehearsal.

When she was leaving, Catherine happened to run into Audrey coming back. Audrey had been leaving early and coming back late these few days. It was rare to see her home. Judging from her appearance, Catherine guessed she pulled another all-nighter last night.

“Your arm had just recovered. What’s the rush to work?” Catherine furrowed her brows as she looked at Audrey.

Audrey understood what Catherine meant. She didn’t want to be so tired either and could only sigh helplessly. What can I do? The injury has delayed the progress of the crew. I have to rush the progress since my injury has recovered. I can’t make the whole crew wait for me, right?”

The expenses of the crew were huge every day. Even though Audrey was the leading actress with a high status, it was impossible to delay everyone’s efforts just for her alone.

Delaying more would only cause substantial financial losses. The production team wouldn’t have been so accommodating if it weren’t for Audrey getting injured on set.

They might even make Audrey act with a broken arm. After resting for so many days, Audrey was already pretty satisfied.

“We worked all night and finally finished shooting. I can finally have a good rest today. By the way, Kathy, why did you get up so early this morning? Where are you going?”

“Rehearsal!” Catherine responded briefly, instantly remembering something else. “How many days are you resting after the final shoot?”

Upon hearing this topic, Audrey was delighted. With a weary face, she looked at Catherine and smiled sweetly. “Haha, Kim said I worked while sick, which was extremely exhausting. So, he showed mercy and canceled one of my job offers and gave me three days off!”

“Perfect timing!” thought Catherine.

“Branden and I will take a two-day vacation on a small island tomorrow. Would you like to come along?” she asked. Audrey smiled slyly and asked Catherine, “Wouldn’t I disturb your intimate moment?”

Catherine replied in a cold tone, “You wouldn’t!” “Well, in that case, I’ll go. After all, the island is so vast, and at worst, I’ll simply keep a safe distance and enjoy myself alone!”

How could Audrey miss the opportunity to tag along with the big shot, enjoy free food and drinks, and take a trip to a private island?

Most importantly, she didn’t have to worry about paparazzi taking photos of her on a private island. During this period, she had been exhausted from hiding from the paparazzi.

“Whoever doesn’t join it is a fool!” thought she.

“Great!” Catherine curled her lips slightly with a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth, showing a touch of indulgence toward Audrey.

“Kathy, you’re really awesome. Go for the rehearsal quickly. I’m going to have a good beauty sleep now!”

Catherine kindly closed the door for her and strode out. The agreed-upon rehearsal time was drawing near. Leaving now would be perfect. She didn’t allow anyone to be late and didn’t like being late herself.
