All Her Secrets

Chapter 1004 Be Yourself

Triston followed Audrey all the way, just a few steps behind her.

After a while, Audrey couldn't help but turn around to look at him in confusion. "Why do you follow me?" she asked coldly.

He ignored her indifference, smiling gently. "It's late. I can't risk letting a girl as pretty as you go home alone, can I?

Audrey was amused by him.

Triston was relieved to see her smile finally. He took off his coat and handed it to Audrey. "Put it on. It's windy now. You wouldn't want to catch a cold, sweetie." His voice was low and filled with endless tenderness.

The wind was chilly at night. Audrey took his coat and put it on. It was still warm with a good smell. She looked back at him, handsome, glowing under the moonlight.

"Let's take a walk," she said.

Triston immediately said yes to her invitation.

They walked along the river in front of the hotel. Looking at the neon lights shining in this magnificent city, Audry felt lost. She halted suddenly and turned to Triston, her eyes not focusing, looking confused. "Am I just useless?"

Her question made Triston's heart sink. He didn't want to see her like this. "Your fans will be heartbroken if they hear what you say, silly girl. You are the superstar. You are anything but useless."

Audrey had established herself as a competent and popular superstar in the entertainment industry. But a celebrity was nothing compared with capitals. Otherwise, Liam wouldn't treat her like a whore tonight.

Born and raised in the Swanns, she had much more than Catherine. But she couldn't compare with Catherine at all. Sometimes, she even felt guilty for sharing the same genes with her, wondering if she didn't work hard enough or if she was born ordinary.

She became tired from walking and sat by the river, regardless of her expensive gown.

Triston sat next to her, staring at the peaceful river. 'Everyone was destined for something when born. Some people are destined to be mediocre, while others achieve great success with great ambitions. What's the fun of a world filled with brilliant people? You don't have to compete with anyone. Being yourself is the biggest success." Content belong to NôvelDráma. Org.

He seemed to be talking to himself. Or maybe he was talking to Audrey. His voice was faint and dismal, not quite like his pleasant self.

'Don't compete with others. Be yourself, Audrey thought about it repeatedly inside. Maybe she had too much on her mind.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Seeing her sigh, Triston reached out and stroked her head. "Don't compare yourself with Catherine. She's a monster."

Audrey didn't like the word he used on Catherine and glared at him.

Triston raised his hands to surrender. "Hey, don't get me wrong. I couldn't find a better word. She's extraordinary. She is here to promote the progress of humanity. She is not one of us."

Well, not just Audrey. He doubted if there was any woman better than Catherine in the world.

He continued, "You are already on top of the pyramid. Don't underestimate yourself."

Audrey was still low but felt better after talking to Tristan. She was not quite used to him being so severe. She turned to look at his handsome face, saying, 'Thanks. For talking to me and showing up in time tonight."

If it were not for Triston, she would have no choice but to call Branden.

Triston didn't reply to her thanks. He reminded her of the time. "You should get back to your apartment, sweetheart. You have work tomorrow, and staying up late makes you swell."

Audrey frowned at him in confusion. "How do you know that?"

Triston was stunned by her question and then smiled. "Kim told me before I chased after you. He's back already. I'll send you home."

Typical Kim,' thought Audrey.

The chilly wind kept blowing. Audrey felt drowsy and yawned.

Triston knew they had to go back. "Let's head back."

Triston parked the car under Audrey's apartment building. Audrey opened the car door and got out of the car before Triston opened the door for her. "I'll go up by myself. See you," said Audrey.

Triston's eyes darkened. He didn't say anything, just nodded.

Audrey went up alone. After returning home, she went to the window and looked out. His car was there. He leaned against it, looking at her house. She carefully hid herself in the shadow and turned on the lights. He left after seeing the lights on.

After he was gone, Audrey fell to the floor against the wall weakly. There was a huge gap between them, and she couldn't pretend not to feel it. Yes, they were close, and she knew Triston still loved her. But they were not getting back. Right people, but wrong time.

Audrey exhaled slowly. Her phone rang when she was about to wash up. She looked at the number and picked it up.

"Hi, there, mother-to-be! Why are you calling so late? It's not good for the baby," said Audrey.

"Something happened tonight?" asked Catherine coldly.

Audrey was shocked. "How do you know?"

Catherine rolled her eyes. It was hard not to know it because Triston made a fuss and borrowed people from Branden.
