All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 791 The Situation Was Truly TroublesCatherine paused with the fork in her hand, not expecting Rylan to bring up Ronin suddenly. Subsequently, Catherine said expressionlessly, " Ronin is not here." "Not here?" Rylan frowned slightly.

"His friend cto see him, and they went out to have fun for a couple of days," said Catherine.

"Young people love to have fun. It's in their nature." Rylan chuckled lightly. " Ronin is still young. It's normal." Catherine didn't respond to him and silently ate the food on her plate. She didn't eat much. When dining out, she only ate to fill her stomach.

After finishing their meal, Rylan planned to invite Catherine for a walk, but she declined. "I need to go back to the lab," she said.

"Catherine, what kind of experiment are you doing that captivates you so much?" Rylan looked at Catherine with sconfusion. In his impression, Catherine seemed indifferent to almost everything, rarely showing such dedication to something.

"I'm leaving." Catherine didn't respond to Rylan's question and left without looking back.

Rylan had long been accustomed to Catherine's personality. Wearing a helpless expression, he could only watch Catherine leave.

After returning to the lab, Catherine immediately took out her phone and dialed Carlo's number. At that moment, Carlo was reviewing surveillance footage, hoping to find suseful clues. When he saw Catherine's call, his body involuntarily tensed. "Miss Swann, what's up?" On the phone, Catherine's tone was cold and calm. “Carlo, helpcheck someone.” "Sure, sendthe details,” Carlo said and hung up. Seeing his tense expression, Carlo's colleague couldn't help but find it amusing.

"Carlo, why are you nervous? Miss Swann just asked you to check someone, not yourself. You look like something big is happening." Even though it was meant as a jest, those colleagues rarely saw Carlo with such an expression. His demeanor had inadvertently heightened the tension in the entire surveillance room.

Hearing his colleague's banter, Carlo glanced at him, snorted, and said, "You understand nothing. She is even more formidable than Mr. Duncan." The shock on everyone's faces was evident. Those who had worked with Branden for many years were well aware of his capabilities. Now Carlo was claiming that Catherine, a girl, was more formidable than Branden. They found it was hard to believe that.

After informing Carlo, Catherine finished her work in the lab and left. She took her motorcycle and hadn't driven for long when she sensed someone following her.

Not panicking upon realizing she was being tracked, Catherine continued to drive at a steady speed. Her beautiful and ethereal face remained calm, with a faint smile in her bright eyes.

The two cars tracking her switched back and forth to avoid detection. Just as they were about to switch again, suddenly, with just a momentary distraction, the motorcycle they had been following disappeared without a trace.

The people in the two trailing cars were dumbfounded as if they had experienced a supernatural event. They had been watching the vehicle in front the entire time. How could it suddenly vanish? "Click!" With a light sound, the previously pitch -black car interior was illuminated.

Francis stepped forward, intending to help Catherine down. "Miss Swann, are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." Catherine performed a graceful spin and dismounted from the motorcycle, Now, she and Francis were in the rear cargo compartment of a large truck.

When Catherine noticed being followed, she immediately informed Francis to arrange for that.

Seeing Catherine unharmed, Francis finally heaved a sigh of relief. "Miss Swann, rest assured. We have sent people to investigate those two cars." "No hurry; take your time." Catherine appeared indifferent. Originally, she could have shaken off those two pursuers without Francis's help. However, considering Branden's advice not to engage in risky behavior, she promptly notified Francis to handle it.

Catherine asked Francis to drop her off by the roadside. She intended to go to Connie.

Francis hesitated whether to follow, but Catherine saw through his thoughts and said, "You don't need to follow me. I'll let you know if anything comes up." Francis could only give up. "Miss Swann, take it slow. Contactif anything.” Catherine responded with the revving sound of the motorcycle. Like a black dragon, the Harley-Davidson swiftly moved through the city's neon lights and gradually disappeared from sight.

After a day of rest, Zobber and Withal had recovered quite a bit. Even though their wounds were still healing, both were in high spirits, exchanging jokes.

"Withal, if I could get up now, I'd definitely beat you, you old rascal!" "Mutual feelings. If my leg were working, I'd knock you down."

Hearing their banter, Catherine rolled her eyes silently. Their r combined age met Eskana's retirement standards, yet these two could argue so childishly. Catherine was speechless. Catherine knocked on the wooden door at the entrance, drawing the attention of the two inside.

Zobber's eyes lit up when she saw Catherine. "Catherine, you finally came. I've been looking forward to your arrival." Witnessing Zobber's overly affectionate display toward Catherine, Withal got goosebumps all over.

The usually arrogant girl only showed sgirlish charm when facing Catherine.

If he didn't know Zobber's sexual orientation, he would suspect Zobber had developed a crush on Catherine.

Seeing Zobber's excited mood, Catherine couldn't help but remind her, "Be mindful of your wounds. Connie won't take care of you if you mess them up."

Although Connie was their designated doctor, she had a temper.

m While she went all out to save lives, if people caused themselves secondary injuries due to their own actions, she would not care about their well-being. Zobber, warned by Catherine, becmore cautious, restraining her behavior. "Catherine, I won't be troublesanymore. Let's get to business. Any news from Ronin?"

Zobber's primary concern was Ronin.

ver She could lay here safely and joke with them because Catherine chose to save her sacrificing Ronin in the process. Therefore, she cared more about Ronin's safety than anyone else. Catherine cfor this matter. "Not yet. We haven't even identified the person who made the move." Upon hearing this, the other two immediately furrowed their brows.

With Catherine's abilities and Branden's influence, they couldn't expose the mastermind. That could only mean that the situation was truly troublesome.
