Chapter 11 Look at That Jinx

Author: Chestnut
At the Swanns'.

It was rare for the Swanns to get up so early. Even Johnathan was awakened by Rachael and was now sitting on the living room sofa with drowsiness.

Korbin was also there. He scanned the room and did not see Catherine, so he asked a maid to get Catherine out.

Liana was confused and looked at her father with dissatisfaction.

"Daddy, we can go to Mr. David's party without her. Why should we take that jinx with us?"

Ordinarily, Liana and Johnathan could not be patched up and argued with each other for all time. But today was different.

With a common enemy, Jonathan could not agree more with Liana's opinion.

"Dad, Liana is right. That jinx comes from a country place and doesn't know the rules. Didn't you say Mr. David is of great importance to us? What if we take Catherine with us, and she ruins Mr. David's party? If so, our efforts will be in vain!"

Mr. David they were talking about was born in Casier and settled down in Mistel with his family when he was young.

Years after, he became a technology tycoon in Mistel and returned to settle in Casier. Now there was news that he had mastered the latest chip technology.

It was the era of intelligence. Chips were as critical as the human heart. Mastering the chip technology was equivalent to holding a machine that could generate cash unlimitedly.

Now, no one in Casier did not keen to cooperate with Mr. David to obtain the most cutting-edge technology in his hands, and the Swanns were no exception.

Korbin learned that Mr. David placed a high value on whether his partner's family was harmonious. Mr. David thought an amicable family was the most solid backing, so Korbin gathered his family members in the early morning.

Korbin thought his son and daughter's persuasion made sense, but he had his consideration.

"Listen, you both. You can only say that to me at home. Once we set off to Mr. David's place, restrain yourselves. Do you understand?"

Jonathan and Liana saw Korbin's serious look and did not dare to persuade him more.

Rachael sat aside and did not say a word. She thought farther than her children. She knew Korbin disliked Catherine as they did, but nothing they could do in such a situation. Almost the whole of Casier knew that Catherine had returned to the family. What would other people think if the Swanns did not bring Catherine to Mr. David's party?

More importantly, what would Mr. David think of them?

They could not afford to lose the forest for a tree.

Catherine came into the living room from the corridor and happened to hear the discussion between the Swanns.

However, she remained aloof, as if she was not the topic the Swanns were discussing. She entered the living room indifferently.

Liana was the first to spot her, and she yelled aloud with an exaggerated look.

"Dad! Look at that jinx!"

Liana's yelling attracted the other family members, and they all turned their eyes at Catherine.

Catherine also noticed Liana's weird reaction. She looked up slightly and cast a sharp glance at Liana.

The knot in Liana's stomach tightened. She had wanted to ask Korbin to drive Catherine away, but then she changed her mind.

"Catherine, do you do this on purpose? Haven't the maid told you we are about to attend an important party today? Why are you looking so shabby?"

The maid who asked Catherine to the living room heard the blame and hurriedly explained in a fluster and helplessness.

"Miss Liana, I've told Miss Catherine about that already, but she wouldn't listen."

Catherine looked down to check her clothes. A white shirt and a pair of jeans. She felt comfortable and relaxed.

Why would they think there's any problem?

She raised her head to look around, only to see everyone looking at her in disgust, including Korbin.
