Chapter 227 Admire Her Talent

Branden and Catherine returned to the residential area and coincidentally ran into Audrey downstairs.

Audrey, with a tired expression, was dragging her suitcase. The dark circles around her eyes were

obvious.

Hearing a voice behind her, Audrey instinctively turned around and saw Catherine and Branden

standing there.

“Hey, Kathy!” Audrey greeted happily, and Catherine nodded calmly in response. Having grown

accustomed to her sister’s temperament, Audrey didn’t think much of it, but she looked at Catherine

with a face full of regret.

“Kathy, I heard that you performed on stage at a celebration gala. Why didn’t you invite me? I could

have cheered you on, but unfortunately, I didn’t get to see your performance!”

Audrey learned about the news from Triston’s social media, where he had explicitly posted a photo of

himself with Aidan, saying they were there to support Catherine. Audrey was indignant. Why was

Triston notified and able to support Catherine but not her, Catherine’s own sister?

Catherine glanced at Audrey’s face, which seemed to have aged a few years in an instant. Her voice

turned cold as she asked, “Do you have time?”

The confidence that had just surged within Audrey was instantly extinguished. Audrey now wished she

could collapse on the ground. She wouldn’t mind sleeping on the bare ground either. As the variety

show she participated in became increasingly popular, she received more and more endorsement

deals and appearance requests.

In the drama Audrey had previously participated in, she was just a supporting character with limited

screen time. But now, the director had the screenwriter change her role into the lead, instantly tripling

her screen time. She was so tired that she could just close her eyes and fall asleep.

The original female lead of that drama was the new girlfriend being promoted by Aaron, an actress who

had just risen to fame not long ago. She lacked acting skills but had often abused her power on set,

relying on Aaron’s influence.

Now that Aaron had gotten into trouble and was completely kicked out by the Blatons, the director

couldn’t tolerate her and demoted her to a supporting role.

Audrey’s popularity was rising, and her fame was even higher than when she signed on to this drama.

The director chose to promote her to the female lead, reducing costs.

Audrey was helpless. Knowing that Catherine didn’t purposely not invite her, Audrey felt much more

relieved. With no more grievances, Audrey became more tired. “Let’s go upstairs and rest, Kathy.”

When Paxton offered to carry her luggage, Audrey politely declined, “It’s fine. I don’t have much stuff.

We’ll go up ourselves. You can go back with Mr. Duncan.”

There was no need to prolong this any further. However, Paxton looked at Audrey seriously and said,

“It’s alright, Miss Swann. Mr. Duncan also lives here.”

Branden lived here? The news shocked Audrey. “When did Branden move in here?” she wondered.

“Why did I not know?”

The shock continued until Catherine and Audrey returned to their apartment. Hearing a sound from

outside the door, Audrey snapped back to reality. She turned her head silently, her eyes widening as

she looked at Catherine. When did Branden move in?”

Catherine didn’t know the exact details, but seeing Audrey’s serious expression, she casually replied,

“Just a few days ago, I guess.”

Audrey instantly sat on the floor, and Catherine frowned at her dejected appearance. “What’s the

matter?”

Audrey lifted her head and looked at Catherine with a pained expression. ” Kathy, can you imagine how

difficult our lives will be with such a big shot living next door? It’s unbearable just thinking about it.’

“Does it directly affect our future with Branden living next door?” Catherine asked inwardly. She didn’t

quite understand the meaning behind Audrey’s words.

Seeing Catherine looking confused, Audrey helplessly exclaimed, “Never mind. You wouldn’t

understand. I’m going to rest!”

For Audrey, having such a big shot living next door meant that every move she made would be under

his watchful eyes. If, one day, she accidentally offended him, it could be a huge problem. She knew

that Branden was not like any other man. His heart was difficult to fathom. It would be challenging to

have such a big shot as a neighbor.

All she hoped for now was that in the future, Branden would forgive her for the sake of Catherine and

not hold grudges against her. Catherine didn’t understand Audrey’s train of thought and didn’t need to

understand it.

Returning to the room, Catherine felt her phone vibrating in her pocket. She took it out and saw that it

was a call from Grayson.

Catherine suddenly thought of what had happened that day. She tapped the answer button, tossed the

phone aside, and then comfortably lay on the bed, stretching out in a star shape. Grayson’s deep and

pleasant voice came through the earpiece. “Boss, are you there?”

“Mhm!” Catherine hummed in response. In an instant, his composed voice became somewhat excited.

“Boss, I listened to your performance, and it was amazing. Can you give me that song? I love it, and it

happens that the next album I’m working on doesn’t have a lead single yet!”

“No!”

Despite her excellent relationship with Grayson, Catherine responded firmly without hesitation or

explanation.

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone before Grayson’s voice, now tinged

with sadness, sounded again. “Alright, but that won’t stop me from liking that song. Boss, your voice is

truly incredible. If you were to enter the music industry, the level of the entire industry would be

elevated because of you! I’m one hundred percent sure!”

Grayson wasn’t just flattering Catherine. He genuinely believed she was a rare musical genius and

admired her talent.

Unfortunately, Catherine had no interest in entering the industry. She saw music as nothing more than

a hobby. Ironically, her casual hobby reached heights many could never achieve, no matter how hard

they worked.

Sometimes, Grayson felt envious of Catherine because he knew that even if he worked his whole life,

he would never come close to Catherine’s level of talent, not even a fraction of it.

Just as Grayson was disappointed that he wouldn’t have the chance to sing Catherine’s new song, she

spoke up again. Her voice sounded lazy, with a hint of weariness. “That song isn’t suitable for you. If

you insist on making it the lead single, I’ll make another one for you!”

She had adjusted many of the melodies to complement Bryan and Ronin, and it didn’t suit Grayson’s

style as a performing artist. Grayson exclaimed in surprise,” Really? Boss, are you serious?”

“Yes, I’ll give it to you in a few days!” For Catherine, writing songs was as easy as picking up a pen,

especially when writing for Grayson. She knew his style too well.

She had always controlled Grayson’s musical style and could effortlessly write the most suitable songs

for him.

“Thank you, Boss! You’re amazing!” Grayson couldn’t contain his excitement and kept expressing his

gratitude.

“I have two things for you to do!” Catherine said. Grayson immediately straightened up, even though

they were communicating through the phone. He listened attentively, waiting for Catherine’s orders.

“Boss, just tell me what you need, and I’ll do my best to fulfill it.”
