Chapter 1 Return of the Jinx
At Vicente Swann’s funeral.
As the Swanns were one of the three prominent families in Casier, Vicente’s funeral was naturally packed with big shots and members of respected families in Casier.

In the noisy venue, the arrival of a girl in a white T-shirt attracted the attention of everyone present.

All of the people present were either rich or powerful. Despite being good-looking, the girl wore a cheap and battered T-shirt, setting her apart from everyone else at the funeral.

Seeing how she walked straight toward the Swanns family, someone couldn’t help asking curiously, “Who is she? Why is she sitting with the Swanns?”

“I heard that she is Miss Catherine, the second daughter of the Swanns that had lived away from the family. Vicente only asked her to come back before he died.”

“Is that so? I heard that Vicente ordered the family to announce his will in front of everyone before he died. I guess she only returned for this!”

The girl did not know that she had already become the topic of the guests’ discussions. She looked calmly ahead with an indifferent expression on her face.

Her eyes remained focused on Vicente’s portrait in the middle of the venue. Nobody knew what she was thinking about at the time.

At the sight of Catherine Swann like this, Liana Swann, the youngest and favorite daughter of the Swanns, couldn’t help complaining to her mother, who was sitting next to her.
