All Her Secrets

Audrey got out of the car halfway. She just couldn’t bear the intense romantic atmosphere inside. Actually, both Catherine and Branden remained silent. They were occupied with their own things.

But that feeling was something else. Branden drove the car while Catherine played games on her phone the whole time.

As the car stopped at a red light, Branden reached over and adjusted the button to recline Catherine’s seat. Catherine, who had been engrossed in her game, suddenly leaned back. She shifted her gaze from her phone to Branden.

She coldly stared at Branden with a hint of confusion. Branden gently looked at her with his sparkling eyes.

“Kathy, give your eyes a break, and I’ll wake you up when we’re there.”

Playing on the phone in the car could seriously strain the eyes. Although Branden was driving, he noticed that Catherine had been on her phone for at least half an hour.

So he asked her to take a break and rest her eyes. After understanding his intention, Catherine obediently turned off her phone and leaned back. She was completely unconcerned about the fate of her in-game characters.

“Wake me up when we’re there.”

“Okay.” Branden’s voice was incredibly tender. The car was moving unusually slowly, which was quite unexpected given its exceptional performance.

As Catherine woke up, the car had just reached the entrance of the residential complex. It was just heading to the underground garage. The moment Catherine woke up, Branden noticed and glanced at her from the corner of his eye.

Catherine leaned her hand against the window and tilted her head. She casually observed Branden without saying a word.

Branden had been driving attentively. Suddenly, he remembered a video Triston had shared in their WhatsApp group earlier in the afternoon. It was a small group with him, Triston, Aidan, and a few other friends they often hung out with.

After posting the video, Triston even mentioned everyone in the group. He just wanted to ensure everyone could see his one-handed steering wheel skills. He claimed that being able to drive with one hand was the latest trend. It was really impressive.

Branden had initially thought it was a boring stunt and it was something only Triston would take seriously. But to his surprise, everyone in the group agreed with Triston.

After Catherine woke up, Branden quietly switched to one-handed driving. Catherine propped her chin up and idly looked around. She paused as she looked at Branden’s fingers, which rested on the steering wheel.

Once the car stopped and the door automatically opened, Catherine finally diverted her gaze. As she got out of the car, she suddenly said to Branden, “Your fingers are quite good-looking.”

Branden was momentarily taken aback. Then he smiled slightly. He deliberately lowered his voice and leaned in slightly. Then he asked, “Do you like them?”

Without hesitation, Catherine gave a simple and assertive reply.

“Yes.” Then she walked away confidently. Watching Catherine leave, Branden smiled brightly.

Some of Triston’s tricks and antics seemed to have their uses sometimes. At the same time, Korbin was in the Swanns’ study.

Korbin returned home unusually early today. His posture remained almost unchanged from the moment he walked in until now. When he heard a knock on the door, he slowly extinguished the cigar in his hand.

“Come in.”

After Korbin’s personal secretary received the command, he gently pushed the door open and entered the room.

“Mr. Swann, there’s something new.”

Korbin furrowed his brow and coldly uttered a word. He said, “Speak!”

Just half an hour ago, Korbin received a call from Rachael. She informed him that Catherine appeared unharmed at the Langs’ and gave the Langs a good scolding.

Catherine even used her position as the chairperson of the Swann Corporation to threaten the Langs. Korbin never expected that his meticulously planned scheme would have a loophole.

He immediately dispatched someone to investigate. He wanted to find out what kind of force was behind Catherine. She escaped successfully under his design. The secretary lowered his head. His expression showed clearly how troubled he was at the moment.

Korbin urged him impatiently, which caused the secretary to shiver. “Mr. Swann, we’ve located Jacky. He is at the Hopkin Hospital in Casier. He’s injured quite seriously. Luckily, a passerby found him and rushed him to the hospital or he might be dead now!!

“Is this what you were investigating?” Korbin’s face darkened, and he looked at his secretary with sharp eyes.

“Mr. Swann, we find no connection between Jacky’s accident and Catherine. The car indeed had a problem on the way, and Catherine got off at that time. Later, Jacky encountered his enemies. His own

enemies injured him, and it has nothing to do with Catherine.”

After briefly explaining the situation, the secretary lowered his head again. And his hands began to tremble involuntarily. In the next moment, Korbin erupted in anger.

“You fools! I’m keeping you to get things done, not to cause trouble for me. Stop making me clean up your mess day in and day out. Do you understand?”

The secretary was so scared that he trembled all over and struggled to speak clearly. He replied, “I understand, Mr. Swann. We understand.”

After a brief outburst, Korbin regained his composure and began planning the next steps.

“We can’t use Jacky now.” Although Korbin didn’t explicitly say it, the secretary understood his meaning and nodded obediently.

“Mr. Swann, rest assured. I will handle it personally.”

To redeem himself, the secretary volunteered and said, “Mr. Swann, should I arrange another group of people to deal with Catherine?” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Korbin waved his hand and replied, ” Not for now. I’ll consider it carefully before making a decision. You can go now.

“Yes, Mr. Swann.”

After the secretary left, Korbin returned to his original position and relit his cigar. He never imagined that Catherine would be so lucky. She escaped like this. He thought inwardly, “She is really a jinx.”

Korbin’s dark eyes flickered with a sinister and eerie intensity. He decided to find a suitable opportunity to deal with Catherine once and for all.

Catherine had just entered the room and sat down when she heard her phone vibrating. She casually picked it up. On the other end was Ronin’s voice.

“Hey, Boss. It’s me.”

“Yeah. Go ahead,” Catherine replied softly. “Boss, the people arranged by Korbin found nothing. They thought it was Jacky’s enemies seeking revenge, and it allowed you to escape unharmed.

“As for Jacky lying in the hospital, he’s probably in danger. After this incident, Korbin won’t spare him.”

After Catherine heard Ronin’s report, a chilling look flashed in her eyes. Her voice grew done!” y colder as she said, “Well

“Boss, it wasn’t me who did it,” Ronin said with a hint of grievance in his tone. Someone dared to target Catherine. It made Ronin want nothing more than to take those troublemakers down.

But these individuals took measures so quickly and didn’t give him a chance. He felt so wronged and innocent.
