Chapter 667 The Silvas


    The small, shabby fried chicken shop was now crowded with good-looking people casually sitting


    around the table, talking andughing. Their sports cars formed a line parking by the road. The fried


    chicken shop was taken over. Not only did Ronin and Kime, but Drake and Withal rushed in as


    soon as they saw the message.


    Ronin handed the fries to Catherine and asked, “Catherine, is Audrey okay?”


    Catherine exined, “The surgery was sessful. She still needs to rest for a while.”


    Everyone knew that Audrey was Catherine’s elder sister, and Triston dreamed of marrying Audrey and


    followed her everywhere. They all cared about Audrey’s injury.


    The shop owner was d to see so many people eating there. He served another tray of fried chicken


    to their table. The chicken was taken by someone on the way. Judging by how he dressed, the shop


    owner knew he was one of them. So he said, “Are you one of them? Here’s your fried chicken.”


    The food in the roadside shop didn’te with rules and services. But Aidan didn’t care and took the


    fried chicken tray to his friend’s table. “It’s rare for you toe out. When I saw the message, I drove


    over a hundred miles to get here,” said Aidan.


    Upon hearing his ramble, Zobber could not help but tease him, “I didn’t expect that street food could


    attract the attention of the noble Mr. Lane. I thought you only eat in those top Michelin restaurants.”


    Aidan was not offended by her teasing.


    Instead, he was in such a good mood. He responded, “You’re wrong. It’s not about where or what you


    eat. It’s about whom you eat with. I’m happy to squat on the roadside and chew on lollipops with


    friends!”


    After hearing his words, Zobber did not tease him again. She said, “That’s more like it.”


    If it were in the past, they would have bickered with each other until the end of this gathering. Aidan felt


    bored when Zobber stopped talking back. He turned to Catherine and said, “Triston said we were


    heartless to have this gathering while he apanied Audrey at the hospital.”

    If not for Audrey’s injury, Triston would have grabbed a seat and sat here by now.


    Catherine grinned and raised her cup to clink Aidan’s. They both drank up. After drinking some beer,


    Aidan became talkative. He said, “Catherine, I’m unsure if I should tell you this.”


    Ronin was most annoyed by this and couldn’t help but argue with him. ” Either say it straightly or do not


    mention it. Are you afraid we pass out for your explosive news?”


    Aidan thought for a moment and felt that Ronin made some sense. So he continued, “I feel that Audrey


    has been particrly unluckytely. Didn’t Triston take a hit for Audreyst time?”


    Catherine had just heard Kimin about this. She had already arranged for someone to


    investigate. Now, Aidan brought it up again.


    Aidan was different from Kim. Hisst name was Lane, which made him essible to all kinds of


    people and information. He knew way more than Kim did. Catherine felt that he had something else to


    say. She asked, ” What do you mean?”


    There was no turning back. Aidan had to spit it out. Let alone Catherine was his good friend.


    “A few days ago, the Lamberts arranged a marriage for Triston with a girl from the Silvas in Loxton. It is


    said that the Silvas approached them first, hoping to strengthen their power through the alliance!”


    The Lamberts had always been a wealthy and influential family in Casier. Recently, the Duncans had


    moved to Loxton, transferring arge portion of their business here.


    The Lamberts also determined that the prospects in Casier were limited, and they intended to follow


    the Duncans to Loxton.


    The Silvas were prominent ns in Loxton. Unlike the rising Lamberts, the Silvers had been constantly


    declining over the past decade, only looking good on the outside.


    To maintain their status, the Silvas wanted to ally with the Lamberts through a marriage between the


    two families.


    A broke rich man was still wealthier than the poor. Although the Silvas were in dire straits, as a


    prominent family in Loxton, they still had rtions and connections. These were what the Lamberts


    urgently needed.


    The Silvas took the initiative to propose a marriage with the Lamberts. The elders of the Lamberts were


    not aware of Triston’s personal life. Seeing him hanging around all day long, they decided on the


    marriage without Triston’s consensus after meeting with the Silvas’ daughter.


    Triston had be ustomed to being unchained, and it was not the first time his elders had made


    decisions for him. He didn’t even take it to heart.


    As soon as Audrey consented, he would go public with their rtionship. No one can say anything


    then.


    Catherine’s patience wore off because Aidan kept beating about the bush. She got to the point and


    asked, “Are you saying Audrey’s injury is rted to the Silvas?”


    Aidan nodded, “To be precise, I think it’s rted to Andrea Silva, the daughter of the Silvas. I’ve met


    her before. She is good-looking and smart. An intelligent woman with a clear target can be difficult to


    deal with.”


    The eldest son of the Lamberts, Michael, was already engaged. He and his fiancée were a loving


    couple widely known in Casier. So Andrea could not be aiming at Michael. It could only be Triston.


    Triston’s high-profile pursuit of Audrey is notable for everyone in their social circle. A woman like


    Andrea could not allow others to sabotage her ns.


    The Silvas were involved in many cultural industries. Picking on an actress with no background and not


    getting caught should be easy for them.


    Triston was deeply trapped in the situation. Aidan, on the other hand, saw through as a bystander.


    In addition, the rtionshipwork of the Lanes in Loxton was much deeper than that of the Lamberts,


    and Aidan had also met Andrea several times and knew how smart she was. He didn’t have concrete


    evidence to prove Andea was behind the scenes, but he felt she had something to do with it.


    Catherine nodded slightly, lifted the cup in her hand, and drank it all in one gulp as a gesture of


    gratitude.


    She thought inwardly, “It seems like I have to meet with Andrea. It’s best if Audrey’s idents have


    nothing to do with her. Then I’ll leave her to Triston. If Andrea is behind the scenes, I won’t go easy on


    her.”
