All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 192 Coincidence
After getting her bag, Audrey took Catherine with her to the car. The two were about to take the car and go back, but when they
reached the car, Catherine suddenly reached out to stop Audrey.
Audrey was taken aback for a second before staring at Catherine with a puzzled expression. “Kathy, what’s up? Aren’t you
getting in the car?”
Catherine lowered her eyes. Her gaze was freezing as she gestured to the side, signaling Audrey to be mindful of her
surroundings. Audrey looked in the direction of Catherine’s gaze and found that the car’s tires were flat.
She walked around the car again and discovered all four tires were flat. She looked at Catherine in panic. Kathy, what should we
do? My car broke down, and I’m sure someone intentionally sabotaged it!”
There was no need for Audrey’s assurance. Catherine knew that someone must have deliberately caused the damage. After all,
this was something that anyone with eyes could tell. No need to guess. Catherine already knew who the mastermind was.
“Who else but that ignorant young mister from the Swanns could come up with such boring and childish tricks?” she thought.
Compared to the composure of Catherine, Audrey was quite restless and even a bit jumpy.
“Kathy, what do you suggest we do?
“This is a villa area where people usually drive in, and no one would take a taxi. Even if someone wants to, they would have to
walk to the entrance of the villa area.
“It’s at least two or three miles to walk from here.”
After Audrey finished complaining, she angrily stomped her foot and said, ” Forget it. I’ll go inside and ask Father to arrange a
driver for us!”
Catherine grabbed Audrey, who was about to leave. “Now that Johnathan carried out this matter, how could the Swanns offer
assistance at such a time?
“If it were to cause a commotion, the Swanns would face the embarrassment, she thought. Korbin was undoubtedly not going to
provide any assistance. Catherine knew that without even having to think about it.

“Let’s go. I’ll figure it out!”
She wouldn’t be stumped by a car. Catherine seemed to have the magical ability to instantly calm the listener’s agitated heart
with a simple sentence.
Such was the case with Audrey. She lost all her previous anxiety and uneasiness in a moment, obediently following behind
Catherine to walk out.
They walked out of the parking lot and saw a man in a black coat standing not far away. The man leaned his slender body
against a black Bentley in the chilly wind.
His clean and neat bangs partially concealed the deep eyes. Those bright moon-like eyes were gazing ahead, shimmering like
clear lakes.
A gentle breeze brushed against the hem of his clothes, causing the loosely scattered ribbons to flutter about and bringing a
slight hint of coldness. Seeing Catherine approaching, he quickened his pace toward her.
“Why are you here?” asked Catherine. As he saw Catherine’s face, the man’s initially icy, deep eyes thawed instantly, as gentle
as the moonlight tonight.
“I know that the Langs are holding a birthday banquet, and you would come, so I came here to take a look. If we meet
coincidentally, I can give you a ride home.”
Standing behind him, Paxton couldn’t help but feel a pang of anguish as he heard Branden’s words.
“Has it anything to do with coincidence? He has been waiting for two hours already!
“His legs were shivering so much from the cold wind!” he said inwardly. Catherine’s cold gaze swept over the man’s shoulder,
and a beautiful curve appeared at the corner of her lips. Her sparkling eyes were filled with hidden meaning as she smiled.
“Then, it’s such a coincidence!”
The man chuckled without saying a word. Audrey, who was by Catherine’s side, ran toward Branden slowly and exclaimed
excitedly, “Mr. Duncan, what perfect timing! It’s like you read our minds. Our car broke down, and we were stuck here without a
ride. It’s so thoughtful of you to give us a ride!”

From Audrey’s words, Branden discerned the unspoken words. With a raised eyebrow, he looked at Catherine with his eyes filled
with a questioning expression, seeking her opinion.
Catherine shook her head discreetly. What she liked about this man was that he would consult her opinion. Men who reached his
position had long been accustomed to giving orders and having a self-centered attitude toward everything.
Branden was different. No matter how small the issue was, as long as it involved Catherine, he would take the initiative to ask
her opinion and wouldn’t make decisions on his own. Seeing that Catherine didn’t want him to take action, Branden didn’t insist.
“Come on. Let’s get in the car. It’s super windy outside!”
Audrey was following Catherine, and Branden was in front of them. Branden was so sweet that he even blocked the car
doorframe for Catherine while she was getting in, making people jealous.
In Audrey’s mind, the young and famous heir of the Duncans had always been a cold man, forever aloof and proud, towering
above everyone else.
“How did he end up being taken down by my younger sister?” she wondered. Anyway, Audrey was super happy. She initially
thought that Branden was helping because of the agreement between their families, but now it seemed that maybe he really
liked Catherine.
The car slowly pulled up to Audrey’s house. It was unknown if it was intentional or what. The distance that should have taken
only half an hour took Paxton an hour and a half.
The top-of-the-line luxury and high- performance Bentley drove slower than the beat-up old car gasping for breath next to it.
As soon as the car came to a stop, Audrey pushed open the door and rushed out of the car without even looking back, shouting,
“Kathy, I need to use the bathroom. Take your time. It’s not a problem if you come up later!”
When Catherine saw Audrey running away as if being chased by a beast, she shook her head helplessly. Branden’s eyes landed
on the raised corner of Catherine’s mouth, his clear eyes pausing for a moment before he smiled. The corner of his mouth
curved in the exact same way as Catherine’s. His voice was very soft and gentle.” Your sister is interesting!”
“Indeed!” Catherine replied. Branden reached out and rubbed Catherine’s head gently. Her hair was very soft and fine and had
not been damaged by various dyeing and perming treatments. So it was incredibly well taken care of.

It felt extremely comfortable, which gave people a sense of satisfaction. Branden couldn’t help but become addicted to touching
it, repeatedly feeling it a few more times.
“Scumbag! Is he treating me as a little kitten or puppy and is addicted to touching me?” said Catherine inwardly. Just as she was
about to lose her temper, Branden seemed to have guessed her thoughts and withdrew his hand quickly.
He turned around and grabbed a little box from the side. The packaging of the small box was highly exquisite. With just one
glance, one could tell it was pretty valuable.
“Here! I had someone reduce the amount of sugar by half. Just have one when you have nothing to do!”
Catherine furrowed her eyebrows slightly, feeling somewhat displeased, but Branden stuffed the small box into her hands
forcefully. “Behave, listen to me. They are not as sweet as before and will raise your blood sugar levels faster.”
This was a fast-acting pill. Branden specifically sought out a biomedical team to develop it to address Catherine’s hypoglycemic
symptoms.
Upon hearing the explanation, Catherine appeared delighted as a contented cat, gladly accepting it. She was not incapable of
treating her hypoglycemia. Though it might require some effort, it was not impossible to alleviate it.
She had gotten used to this constant state of exhaustion as it was the only way to rest and replenish her energy fully.
“However, since this man cannot bear to see me tired, I will listen to him. It wouldn’t hurt to have a not-so-sweet candy like this
occasionally,” she thought.
“Thank you!”
Catherine shook the small box in her hand and stepped out of the car. Branden didn’t try to convince her to stay as Catherine still
had to attend school the next day. It was not good for her health to sleep too late.
After confirming that Catherine had gone upstairs and receiving instructions, Paxton was ready to start the car. Suddenly, he
caught sight of the figure standing in the shadows ahead. His piercing eyes darkened immediately as he said respectfully, “Sir,
there is someone ahead!”
