Chapter 280 She Has Returned

Liana looked in shock towards the direction of the door, unable to believe what she was seeing. “How is this possible?” she shrieked in her heart. “Why does Catherine appear here unharmed?”

Before Liana could fully comprehend the situation, their eyes met. Liana felt a suffocating sensation as if two invisible hands were choking her, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Liana couldn’t bear to meet Catherine’s gaze and cautiously lowered her head, avoiding eye contact. Catherine continued to observe Liana, taking note of her every move.

Seeing Liana’s guilty and timid behavior, Catherine smirked and walked straight into the house. Audrey approached Catherine, her eyes filled with concern. “Kathy, what’s going on? Why are you so late?”

Before Catherine could respond, a cold and elderly voice came from behind Audrey. “Well, I’ve never seen someone as arrogant as you, Catherine. You like to keep us waiting, huh?”

It was Donna, her face serious and full of disapproval towards Catherine. Audrey was taken aback, knowing that her grandmother was blaming Catherine for being late. She wanted to explain on Catherine’s behalf. Just then, Rachael entered the room.

As soon as Rachael saw Catherine standing in the living room, her face darkened. It seemed that she was shocked and surprised by Catherine’s presence.

“You… You’re…” Rachael stammered. Hearing this, everyone turned their heads. Audrey, at the moment, also found Rachael’s astonishment strange.

The calmest person in the room was Catherine herself. A sinister and eerie smile appeared on her face, making it difficult for one to meet her gaze.

Catherine took a step forward, protecting Audrey, and stared directly at Rachael. “My mom asked me to come. Anything wrong? Well… Could it be…”
