All Her Secrets

Chapter 865 This Is My Boyfriend
Excitedly clutching the latest magazine, Amelia hurried to the office door of Catherine and knocked. "Super Catherine, are you busy now? Can I come in?"
Catherine, engrossed in a lab report, looked up at the sound of Amelia's voice. "Not at all, come in!"
With Catherine's permission, Amelia scurried inside. "Super Catherine, check this out. Audrey's official announcement, is she back? The new ad is stunning-she looks gorgeous!"
Amelia laid the magazine before Catherine, its cover graced by Audrey. Audrey and Catherine both got good looks from Racheal. So, Audrey's beauty, even among stars in the entertainment industry, was a force to reckon with.
Audrey's return was quite secretive, with no news disclosed to the public, so it was normal for Amelia to be unaware.
Catherine smiled faintly at the cover. She knew Audrey had stepped in to help Kim just yesterday and was surprised to see her gracing the magazine so soon.
"Audrey has only been back for two days," Catherine informed Amelia.
Amelia, with raised eyebrows, expressed her surprise. "Wow, she has secured this endorsement within two days of her return? Could the rumors be true?"
"What rumors?" Catherine inquired.
Amelia spilled, her eyes cautiously on Catherine. "There's gossip that Audrey landed the endorsement with the newly -established Loewe company in Eskana, because she's dating the boss. They supposedly met abroad and are rumored to be tying the knot soon."
Although Amelia's source was the gossip magazines, the insider accounts were usually accurate and thus relatively reliable.
A frown creased Catherine's brow. She stayed out of Audrey's personal life, but if the boss behind the company was Brian as Amelia suggested, Audrey would've rejected the project outright rather than breach a contract.
Deciding to get to the bottom of it, Catherine planned to visit Audrey that evening.
"I'm not clued in on her work matters, "Catherine replied.

Amelia knew Catherine's stance, never meddling in others' private affairs, not even when it came to her sister.
"Just sharing some gossip. Carry on with your work. I won't bug you anymore!" said Amelia.
That evening, Catherine wrapped up in the lab and received a call from Branden. Assuming he was picking her up, she was about to decline when he informed her of his late return.
"Got plans to paint the town red?" Catherine teased.
Branden chuckled. "Do I dare?"
"I'm grabbing a drink with Triston tonight," he added.
Catherine frowned slightly at his explanation. "Again?"
Branden sighed silently. "It seems that the news about Audrey having a boyfriend has hit Triston hard."
Despite Branden's reluctance to get involved, his bond with Triston was strong. He wouldn't leave Catherine unless Triston was truly struggling.
"A boyfriend? Did he get it wrong?" Catherine stared at him, uncomprehending.
"It doesn't seem so," Branden replied. " According to Triston, it's confirmed." With so much news flying around, Catherine couldn't tell fact from fiction. She said, "You go. I was planning to drop by Audrey's apartment anyway."
"Okay, I'll pick you up when I'm finished," responded Branden.
After their brief call, Catherine left the university. Although Branden wasn't there, the driver from the Duncans was punctual, waiting at the entrance.
Seeing her, the driver promptly opened the car door. "Please get in the car, Miss Swann."
After settling in the car, Catherine directed the driver to Audrey's apartment. Before long, they arrived at Audrey's apartment. Finding the door shut tight with no response to her knocks, she guessed Audrey wasn't in. As Catherine was about to turn away, the elevator doors opened behind her.
Turning around, she saw Audrey stepping out of the elevator with Brian. Audrey seemed startled to see Catherine and quickly lowered her head, looking guilty. Brian greeted her with a cheerful smile, "Cassie, what a coincidence to find you here!"
Catherine responded coolly to his over- familiarity, "We aren't close enough for such intimacy. Please, call me Miss Swann or Catherine."
Brian's smile froze, and he stood awkwardly, not knowing how to react.
Catherine eyed Audrey silently. Feeling the pressure of Catherine's gaze, Audrey finally raised her head, forcing a smile. "Kathy, what brings you here?"
Instead of replying, Catherine kept scrutinizing her.

Brian's practiced smile could not withstand Catherine's frosty tone, and his eyes
swiftly cooled to a glacial stare.
Sensing the mounting tension, Audrey stepped in to prevent any conflict. "Mr.
White," she said.
Before Audrey could continue, Brian interjected, "Why so formal?" Audrey, looking extremely uncomfortable, said, "Brain, Kathy is rather reserved. Why don't you head back, and I'll chat with her later tonight."
