Chapter 93 Disconnected
The following day, Catherine was awakened by a series of door knocks. She suddenly opened her
eyes. A sinister light flashed across her empty eyes. She looked like a demon from hell.
If Audrey saw her like this, she would be scared shitless for sure.
Catherine managed to wake up fully after a few seconds. She disdained herself for accompanying
Audrey for the shoot today. After getting off the bed, she opened the door for Audrey.
Audrey appeared to be in a cheery mood. She wearing a smile-a brilliant smile.
“Morning, Kathy!”
“Hmm!” replied Catherine unenthusiastically in a low and cold voice.
Audrey stood between the camera and Catherine, so the camera couldn’t see Catherine’s face. Only
her voice was caught on tape.
The shooting crew had been feeling sleepy after waking up early in the morning.
Catherine’s grunt was like a frigid wind in the winter. It instantly made everyone fully awake.
Someone couldn’t help but mutter, “What a scary girl.”
Audrey was close and heard what was said. An undetectable trace of awkwardness flashed across her
face.
However, she recovered very quickly. After all, she had gotten used to the of Catherine’s mannerisms.
“Kathy, dress
1. I’ll make you breakfast!”
After hearing what Audrey said, Catherine closed the door immediately.
That made Audrey on the other side of the door feel incredibly awkward. The cameramen didn’t know
what to make of what just happened either.
Could it be that the sisters had a bad relationship?
It couldn’t be helped. After her awkwardness wore off, Audrey turned to face the camera and explained,
“My sister is a bit introverted and shy of cameras. Don’t misunderstand. We have a great relationship!”
The crowd thought, “It’s kind of suspicious that you have to declare something like that directly.”
Although Audrey wasn’t a well-known figure in the entertainment industry, she came from a wealthy
family. Even if her parents didn’t dote on her, she never had to do any chores.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was impressive of her to make toast and hard-boiled eggs for breakfast. She also warmed up a glass
of milk.
She had wanted to show off her cooking skills by making two sunny-side-up eggs. However, that was
too grand of an undertaking for her. The process was way too arduous for her, and she couldn’t handle
it. In the end, she gave up on the idea.
Audrey looked awkwardly at Catherine, who was sitting primly on her seat. She told her gingerly,
“Kathy, please put up with my cooking and eat a few bites. If you get hungry again on our way to the
studio, I’ll buy you more food!”
Catherine didn’t respond. She picked up the toast, broke off a piece, and stuffed it into her mouth.
Audrey kept staring at her. It wasn’t until she swallowed that Audrey finally felt relieved. She took that to
mean that she had done a decent job at cooking, which explained why Catherine didn’t show any fuss.
After all, everything she made was simple. There wasn’t much to fuss about.
Feeling relieved, she put a piece of toast in her mouth and chomped down. Her expression twisted
immediately.
It wasn’t clay she toasted, was it? Why was the toast as hard as a rock? Did she put it in the toaster for
too long?
Unfortunately, she was in front of a camera. She had to swallow it no matter how painful it
was.
Catherine turned and threw a glance at her. Her eyes were cold as ice. She said in a low voice,” Don’t
use baguettes to make toast next time!”
Audrey frowned in confusion. “Can’t baguettes be used to make toast?” she wondered.
A few
guys from the shooting crew laughed uncontrollably in front of the camera. They
almost lost their balance.
Baguettes were hard to begin with. Audrey didn’t understand how temperature affected cooking and
threw them directly into the toaster for two minutes.
Although the baguettes weren’t burnt, they were hard enough to be used as weapons.
For the sake of her dignity, Audrey forced the bread down her throat. Catherine finished what Audrey
put in front of her without expression and stood up. She needed to go back to her room and finish
packing her luggage.
When she entered her room, the sound of vibration could be heard from her pocket. She reached for
her phone and was surprised to see that it was a call from Branden. She lowered her eyes slightly and
pressed the answer call button.
A husky voice came through the speaker. It was like a refreshing stream that captured her
heart.
“So you’re back in your room?”
Catherine had been feeling somewhat irritated, but his voice extinguished that feeling.
It was only after some time that she realized what he said.
She frowned slightly and looked puzzled. “How did you know?”
She had only just entered her room. It was strange for Branden to call her immediately. It was if he had
installed surveillance on her.
Hearing the confusion in her voice, Branden was a little shocked too. He asked, “Didn’t you. know that
the show is being streamed live for its entirety?”
That was why the crew had come the night before to set up their equipment. They had been preparing
to stream the entire show live. It was far more difficult to set up than recorded shows as it required a lot
of adjustment of the equipment.
In an attempt to avoid making the audience feel the show to be scripted, many reality shows. would
arrange for part of their shows to be streamed live. Live streams provided more candid
reactions.
Some reality shows only streamed part of their shows live. After all, variety shows had to follow a
general script. If they shot the entirety of the show live, chances are not many celebrities would be
willing to attend.
After all, life before and behind the camera was different.
Celebrities were human too. If they were careless and exposed something obscene, they could. drop in
popularity or even be prohibited from appearing in the media.
This reality show they were in now was one of those bold ones where the entirety of the show was
streamed live. As a result, many celebrities turned down their offer. If that hadn’t been the case, the
show would not have turned to a celebrity like Audrey, who had practically zero popularity.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCatherine tried to recall what happened last night. She seemed to remember Audrey mentioning
something along those lines when telling her what to be careful of.
However, Audrey was very long-winded. Many of the things she said were useless. As a result,
Catherine completely blanked during her brief. While she might have heard what she said, she didn’t
actually listen to her.
She asked coldly, “So what if it’s streamed live?”
The man on the phone’s other end instantly knew she didn’t understand implications of a live stream.
He curled his lips and laughed. “Haha, Kathy is really disconnected from reality.”
Upon hearing the snarky remark, Catherine’s brows furrowed even deeper than before.
How was she out of touch?
Paxton couldn’t help but feel some disdain towards his boss when he saw him assuming the role of a
serious teacher and explaining to Catherine what live streamers implied.
How dare he accuse Catherine of being the one who’s disconnected from reality?
A certain someone asked his secretary what a live stream was just this morning and had already
assumed the teacher’s role.
After Branden explained it to her, Catherine understood the implications of live streams. She suddenly
regretted agreeing to help Audrey.
However, since she has agreed to it, naturally, she wouldn’t break the contract in the middle
of the stream.
That was just the sort of person she was!
After Paxton reminded him, Branden ended the call with Catherine somewhat reluctantly.
“Kathy, call me if anything happens.”
It was almost too easy for him to interfere in a reality show. Even making the entire show focus on the
Swann sisters was something entirely within the realm of possibility.
After all, money made the world go round.
That was the kind of power he had. However, he also knew that Catherine also possessed that kind of
power.
Since she didn’t try to interfere with how the show was run, it must mean she didn’t want to. If that was
the case, he wouldn’t interfere either.
He wouldn’t interfere, but he would watch over her. He would only help should she need it.
