Chapter 811 Secret Investigation After a heated argument with Zobber, Withal took the initiative to stop it.
He had always known what he should and shouldn't do. He gestured for Zobber to be quiet, then focused his gaze on Catherine. " Catherine, what brought you here today?" Withal heard from Zobber that Catherine seemed to have fought with Branden last night.
When the two big shots quarreled, they, ordinary people, couldn't persuade them to stop. They could only be sensible and avoid it a bit.
Catherine leaned on the armrest of the sofa with one hand, supporting her chin, and her other hand leisurely hung on her side. Her voice was low. "Tellabout yesterday's situation." Zobber gestured to Withal to explain the situation.
Withal was so angry that he wanted to strangle Zobber. If there were good things, Zobber would be the first to take them, and if there were any trouble, she would push him to take them.
Though helpless, Withal still began to explain the situation to Catherine, " When I arrived with Zobber yesterday, I noticed that they seemed to be transporting someone. I was worried it was Ronin, so I followed up immediately. This group of people was very powerful and had strong anti- reconnaissance abilities. I followed them for not long before I was discovered. They were even willing to give up their lives to get rid of me." If those people hadn't fought desperately, Withal wouldn't have lost them. Withal felt very ashamed to tell Catherine about this.
After Withal finished speaking, Catherine didn't react at all and sat expressionless.
Zobber and Withal both looked at each other, neither knowing what was going on or if Catherine was angry. After hesitating for a moment, Zobber continued, "Catherine, I double- checked carefully with Withal later. I found that none of these people seem to be Eskanese. Although their Eskanese is very standard, from sdetails of their behavior, we could tell that they were doing it deliberately. We might be able to start with the immigration and find out the identity of those people." As long as they could find out where those people were from and what exactly their relationship with those people was, this matter would be much easier to handle.
After a few seconds of silence, Catherine slowly said, "Zobber, I'll leave this matter to you. Be careful when you do it and don't leave any traces." Zobber put two of her fingers together and waved them at the position of her temple. "Okay!" Catherine believed that with Zobber's ability, she should be able to do it easily. She turned her head to look at Withal, and with a glance, Withal's back immediately straightened a bit. " Catherine, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't look atlike that. I'm panicking!" "Have you done anything wrong? You dare not even look directly into Catherine's eyes.” Zobber immediately teased him. "Tell us the truth now, and Catherine can still let you off the hook." After Withal glared at Zobber, Zobber finally stopped teasing him.
"Withal, contact Wantel and ask him to cto Loxton." Hearing Catherine's command, Withal immediately understood her intention. "Catherine, are you planning to have Wantel cto investigate the spies in Hacker Alliance?" Among the entire Hacker Alliance, the only one who could make them trust now was Wantel.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBack then, they all gathered together through the test of life and death. They would not betray each other under any circumstances.
Catherine didn't say much, but only commanded in a low voice, "Go arrange it!" "Okay!" Withal immediately took the order.
After arranging what the two were going to do, Catherine idly wandered around Connie's house in boredom.
Although this house was under Connie's name, it was purchased by the Hacker Alliance. It could be considered a place for them to live in Loxton.
After Catherine cto Loxton, everything was arranged by Branden, so she didn't consider coming to live there.
Ronin, on the contrary, occasionally cthere to grab sfood.
Catherine opened Ronin's room and found his room full of treasures he had collected.
Although she knew Ronin was not in danger now, she still wanted to rescue him as soon as possible and give him freedom.
After looking around, Catherine planned to leave.
As she was walking, she happened to see the Sudoku board hanging behind the door.
After the disorganized numbers were gradually filled into the right place, it presented the sresult no matter whether the numbers were added horizontally or vertically, this was the charm of Sudoku.
Suddenly, Catherine had an inspiration.
She put the string of numbers she had collected earlier into the Sudoku board.
When the last number was filled in its position, Catherine finally understood the meaning of that string of numbers.
Her lips curved slightly upward, casting a charming smile. She praised in her heart, “Ronin deserves to be raised by me. He's indeed smart." Everyone knew that Branden and Catherine had a real fight. Catherine stayed in the dormitory for the past two days, while Branden was engrossed in his work, and never cto see Catherine.
Rylan unexpectedly went to Catherine more often.
Catherine could see him almost every day downstairs in the girls' dormitory or in front of the lab building.
The rumors about Catherine changing her boyfriend were spreading more and more fiercely, and even Marshall, a professor, who was dedicated to research, had heard the rumors.
Catherine was doing experiments in the lab when she realized that there was a figure in front of the lab door that kept swaying back and forth intentionally or unintentionally.
She stopped what she was doing and looked over. She saw Marshall in the doorway.
As they looked at each other, Marshall was a little embarrassed and could only break the awkwardness with a laugh. "Hi, are you tired yet? Want to take a break?" "Haha!" Catherine laughed softly.
Professor Hartley, all the mentors are chasing after the students every day, forcing them to catch up on their progress. But you're forcingto take a break."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSpeaking of which, Marshall was a little proud. "That's because they use they don't have such diligent students as I have. If those students are half as hardworking as you, I wouldn't even have no object to play chess with." Catherine showed a helpless smile as she watched Marshall praise her in a serious manner.
"Alright, Professor Hartley. Don't wander from the subject. If you have anything to say, just say it directly." Mentioning this, Marshall, who had just straightened his waist, suddenly felt a bit embarrassed.
"Nothing much. I just want to ask how you and Branden are doing these days." Catherine pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She knew what Marshall meant. Marshall's heart sank when he saw Catherine's silence. He knew something must be wrong.
But he could only deal with sacademic issues. He really did not know how to handle the emotional issues of his students.
He let out a long sigh. After thinking for a long time, he said in a low voice, "I don't understand the things you young people do nowadays, so I'll take the example of what happened caffair om betweenand my wife. We didn't have a free love affair the beginning. We met on a blind date arranged by our unit. My teacher thought she was suitable for me, but I was so focused on my research that I didn't even think about having a date with her. In the end, I couldn't resist the persuasion of my teacher and family and got married to her in a daze. In the blink of an eye, decades have passed. Our lab can have the present thanks to my wife's thoughtfulness and trust. As you know, I've been concentrating on research all my life, and I wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for her support of my career." Marshall and his wife were known as a loving couple inside the school and had always been regarded as a model couple.
The reason why he persuaded Catherine so was that he thought Catherine's argument with Branden was due to Branden's career.
Everyone knew that it was not easy to manage the huge Duncan Corporation.
Catherine laughed silently at Marshall's words. She knew what Marshall wanted to express was that he wanted her and Branden to trust each other.
"Professor Hartley, don't worry. We're fine. We're just a bit busy lately and don't have tto meet each other. Don't pay attention to the rumors out there," said Catherine. Upon hearing Catherine's words, Marshall gradually relaxed. "That's good. Hope Branden's career goes smoothly, and your experiment also progresses smoothly." X "Uh-huh!" Catherine nodded respectfully.
She was once again grateful for Marshall's care in her heart. Since her grandfather passed away, no elders around her had cared about her like this.
