Chapter 206 Catherine’s Car
As soon as those words were uttered, Audrey couldn’t hold back any longer. She stepped forward and
delivered a resounding slap. Audrey slapped Aaron.
The sharp sound of the slap left everyone stunned, and Aaron was dumbfounded. No one had
expected Audrey to be so daring as to strike Aaron.
Kim, who was standing nearby, instinctively wanted to applaud. That slap was undeniably precise and
clean. There was a bit of Catherine’s swagger in Audrey, and it was evident that they were indeed
sisters.
However, as Kim came to his senses, he realized this was too impulsive. Kim quietly turned to look at
Catherine, who remained calm as ever. He couldn’t help but admire her. Catherine was indeed
impressive.
Catherine glanced at Audrey’s trembling arm with a hint of disappointment. It seemed like she would
need to find time to teach Audrey how to pack a punch. That slap was far too weak.
Finally, Aaron realized the situation. He looked up, gritted his teeth, and glared at Audrey with a
terrifyingly grim expression. He hadn’t expected Audrey to actually slap him.
“Bitch, how dare you strike me?” Audrey stared back defiantly. She shielded Catherine behind her and
intended to protect Catherine.
“Aaron, don’t forget my surname. The Swanns’ power exceeds that of the Blatons. Are you sure you
want to escalate this?”
Aaron was aware of the Swanns’ influence surpassing that of the Blatons. They were all part of the
same circle, and he had interactions with Johnathan. He sneered at Audrey with scorn. Then, he
shouted, “Haha. The Swanns!”
Aaron rolled his small eyes. Then, he continued, “The Swanns may be impressive, but what are you in
the Swanns? I’m the heir of the Blatons, and my dad spoils me, so I can do as I please. But you are

Audrey’s face instantly paled. Catherine, who was standing behind her, stared at Aaron with her cold
eyes. It seemed that Aaron needed a lesson to discern their boundaries. Catherine was about to take
action when someone suddenly barged in.
“Hey, what’s going on here?”
A crisp male voice broke the tense atmosphere, and everyone turned to look in the direction of the
voice. A sharply dressed man with a somewhat handsome appearance entered the scene.
Catherine glanced at him and felt a sense of familiarity. However, Aaron displayed a surprised
expression when he saw the newcomer.
“Zachary, what are you doing here?”
Zachary Lewis was the owner of the barbecue restaurant. He was also from a wealthy family, which
was quite different from the Blatons.
The Lewises had some influence in the underworld, so Aaron always addressed Zachary with great
respect. “Aaron, what’s going on with you guys here?”
After Aaron heard Zachary’s question, his attitude became even more arrogant. “Zachary, these two
girls dared to lay hands on me. Today…”
Zachary glanced at the two sisters from the Swanns. When he looked at Catherine, he paused for a
moment.
He immediately interrupted Aaron and turned to Catherine. Then, he said, ” Miss Swann, you’re dining
here today too?”
Catherine squinted her eyes as she assessed him. She frowned slightly with confusion. Seeing her
reaction, Zachary preemptively said, “Miss Swann, I was also at the gathering of Mr. Lambert and Mr.
Lane last time.”
Catherine realized why Zachary seemed familiar. They had crossed paths inadvertently. Zachary had
grown up in the business under his father. He quickly understood the situation. The Lewises had close
dealings with the Blatons, and he needed to save Aaron.
Zachary raised his foot and gave Aaron’s thigh a hard kick. Then, he scolded Aaron fiercely, “You brat!
Did you offend them? Apologize right now….
Aaron felt like he had never been so clueless in his life. As the heir of the Blatons, he was accustomed
to doing as he pleased. But he had been slapped twice in a day. And this time, he couldn’t retaliate..
Zachary’s words were sharp, and his expression was serious. He didn’t let Aaron ask for the reason
and repeatedly demanded an apology.
With no other option, Aaron reluctantly apologized. After learning the situation, Zachary compensated
Audrey with a shopping card.
“Miss Swann, this is a shopping card for Seaside Mall. Consider it my way of compensating for your
bag on behalf of Aaron. I hope you can forgive Aaron.”
Audrey turned to glance at Catherine. She recognized the card. It would be enough to buy several bags
of the same style.
Not only Audrey but everyone instinctively turned to look at Catherine. Audrey understood from
Zachary’s words that he must know about Catherine’s relationship with Branden. So, he was so
cautious and insisted on making Aaron apologize.
Audrey didn’t want Catherine to get in trouble with Branden because of her own actions.
“Kathy, should we just let it go?”
Catherine didn’t mind it. Since Audrey didn’t want to pursue it, Catherine decided to let it go and show
some respect to Zachary.
So, Catherine nodded slightly and agreed to let the matter go. After Zachary expressed his gratitude,
he left with Aaron. On the way, Aaron was still very unhappy.
“Zachary, why did you force me to apologize to those two girls? Are we supposed to be afraid of them?”
When Aaron mentioned the incident, his anger flared up, and he complained repeatedly. Zachary
suppressed his anger and gave Aaron a stern look. “Don’t worry about that. Just remember not to mess
with those two sisters, okay?”
For no apparent reason, Zachary had to bend over backward for Aaron. He was unhappy, too. Zachary
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwasn’t afraid of the two girls. He was afraid of the man behind Catherine.
Catherine was someone Branden took out to social gatherings. She was pampered by Branden. Even
Triston showed some respect to her. She was not someone to be trifled with easily.
Catherine might very well be the future mistress of the Duncans. In Casier, no one dared to offend the
Duncans. Zachary thought inwardly, “Anyone who offends Mr. Duncan’s lover will get into big trouble.”
“Aaron, go have fun on your own. I have something to take care of.” Zachary had originally come here
for work and didn’t expect to get involved in this mess.
After Zachary left, Aaron still felt dissatisfied and agitated. One of his underlings realized Zachary’s
intentions and came up with a new idea.
“Mr. Blaton, we can’t touch them, but what if we break something to vent our frustration?” Aaron’s eyes
lit up with a sinister smile. He patted the person’s face next to him. “You’ve got a point.”
Due to the unexpected incident, Catherine lost her appetite for barbecue. Not only Catherine but Kim
and Audrey also didn’t want to eat.
So, they decided to head back home. When they walked out of the barbecue restaurant, they
happened to see a group of people playing with cars.
One person was driving a car and repeatedly ramming it into a black car. Audrey recognized the car
and exclaimed, “Oh, my God. Kathy, is that your friend’s car?”
Audrey assumed Catherine had borrowed her friend’s car since the old- model Mercedes didn’t fit
Catherine’s style. Catherine took a quick glance and confirmed it was indeed her car.
Through the car window, she could see the person in the driver’s seat of the other car. It was none
other than Aaron.
When Aaron noticed their arrival, he confidently got out of the car with an arrogant and unruffled
demeanor. As he surveyed the sisters from the Swanns, he raised his chin in arrogance.
“There is no doubt that the car is my doing. I’ll compensate you, and that’s that.”
After that, Aaron took out a card from his pocket and tossed it in front of Catherine. Then, he said, “This
card has one million dollars in it. It doesn’t have a password.
“Darling, that’s more than enough to cover the cost of your old Mercedes.”
