All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 208 Catherine’s Identity
Jameson stared at Catherine in shock. He hadn’t expected this young girl to have such audacity and disregard his family’s
status.
Although Catherine’s relationship with Branden was good, she was just a Woman. Jameson didn’t believe that Branden would
confront the Blatons for the sake of a woman.
Jameson stared at Catherine coldly with his sharp eyes. His words were laden with a strong warning. “Miss Swann, I believe in
the principle of resolving disputes amicably. You should understand that.”
Catherine provocatively stared at Jameson. Her attitude was seemingly carefree, but her presence was overpowering.
She had given them enough time to consider their actions, but it seemed these people were eager to test her patience. They
were just asking for trouble.
“So, you want to protect this guy?”
Catherine wore a faint smile on her beautiful face. She continued, “Use the Blatons to save your son’s legs. Jameson, you’re
getting quite shrewd in business.”
The irony in her words was clear, and Jameson certainly caught it. “Miss Swann, I advise you not to speak too recklessly. Even if
you become the Duncans’ mistress, it won’t be easy to bring down the Blatons. If you choose to confront us, I won’t be afraid of
you.”
Both of them were arrogant. The atmosphere became increasingly tense. Audrey was worried about Catherine, After all, they
were dealing with Jameson, a big shot from the Blaton Group.
In the business world, Jameson’s counterparts were figures like Audrey’s father. Audrey discreetly tugged at Catherine’s sleeve
and signaled her to calm down.
Jameson noticed Audrey’s gesture. His sharp eyes flickered with hostility. “Miss Swann, sometimes it’s not a bad idea to listen to
the advice of those around you.”
Jameson had always wanted to connect with the Duncans. If paying 10 million dollars could resolve this situation, Jameson was
willing to do it. After all, he was well aware of how troublesome his son could be. Otherwise, Zachary wouldn’t call him over.

Damaging Branden’s car could be a significant or minor issue, depending on perspective. In terms of money, it was a relatively
big deal. However, when it came to Jameson’s son, money was a smaller matter.
Audrey wanted to let it go, but Catherine had different plans. Catherine wasn’t so kind. Since Aaron dared to provoke her
repeatedly, there had to be consequences.
“Mr. Blaton, since you decided to abandon the Blaton Group, just enjoy the consequences of your decision.” Catherine glanced
at Jameson with a smile. Then, she turned and gestured to Audrey. “Let’s go.”
The onlookers found it strange. Just a moment ago, Catherine had been acting arrogant, and now she was ending the
confrontation so easily. Jameson felt that something wasn’t right. He saw something unusual in Catherine’s eves, but he couldn’t
understand it.
Audrey thought Catherine chose to let it go. Although Audrey was not pleased with Aaron’s actions, she didn’t want to escalate
the situation and cause Catherine to get involved in any more trouble. However, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for the damaged
car.
Aside from Branden, Audrey couldn’t think of anyone else who might lend Catherine this car. Audrey couldn’t help but wonder if
this would lead to even more trouble. Aaron reveled in his victory. He turned to Zachary with a smug smile.
“Zachary, you see? We’ve settled this matter so easily.”
Zachary remained silent and stared at Aaron. He felt extremely upset. Zachary had noticed Catherine’s final expression before
she turned away.
That expression sent shivers down his spine. Just then, a jarring ringtone interrupted the silence. Hearing that, everyone turned
their attention to the source. It was Jameson’s phone. Jameson answered the call and placed the phone to his ear.
The next moment, his face turned pale. Without regard for the curious eyes around him, he shouted, “What? Do you say the
investment is withdrawn? How is that possible?”
Moments later, Jameson’s secretary’s phone rang too. When the secretary answered the call, his face became even more ashen
than Jameson’s. He shouted, “You say the entire cooperation is canceled? How can this be?
“Have we offended someone?”

The onlookers observed the panicked reactions of the Blatons with curiosity. As the head of the Blatons, Jameson displayed
such a disconcerted expression in public. It indicated the seriousness of the situation.
Actually, leaders of major corporations were under constant scrutiny. Even a single action or expression could raise questions
about their leadership.
At this moment, Jameson’s demeanor in a public setting was certainly unusual. Jameson was tunned. It was Jameson’s
secretary who was the first to put the pieces together.
As the strategist and secretary, he had an impressive reaction time. He didn’t say much to Jameson. Instead, he moved forward
to intercept Catherine.
“Miss Swann, please wait.”
Catherine glanced up at him with her cold eyes.
“If you don’t want to die, step aside.”
Her voice was light, but it carried an overwhelming sense of oppression and sent shivers down spines. The secretary, who was
overwhelmed by her powerful aura, instinctively took a step back.
He hadn’t expected her presence to be so formidable. It seemed they had truly underestimated the situation this time. Jameson
wasn’t foolish. He realized the seriousness of the situation after his secretary did.
When the secretary failed to stop Catherine, Jameson gestured to his bodyguards. They immediately rushed to stand in front of
Catherine.
Catherine remained calm. At this moment, a black figure darted out from the shadows. The figure moved swiftly. And a series of
painful screams filled the air.
In less than a minute, the four bodyguards who had been blocking Catherine’s path were incapacitated. They were lying on the
ground in agony. However, the assailant stood unscathed in the center. Everyone looked at him with fear.
As the assailant approached them, Audrey was upset. She instinctively reached for Catherine, thinking of pulling her away from
the chaos. But she was not prepared for what came next. The assailant did something astonishing.

He knelt down. In front of Catherine, he knelt down with deep respect. He was extremely serious. Joseph lowered his head and
spoke to Catherine with great reverence.
“Boss, I have taken care of all the trash. Joseph had been lurking in the shadows. He was responsible for protecting Audrey’s
safety. When Catherine signaled him, he acted swiftly.
In truth, he had been growing impatient. These hooligans had dared to insult Catherine. They were asking for trouble. Joseph’s
attitude toward Catherine left everyone in shock.
Jameson was stunned. Joseph possessed such remarkable skills. He wasn’t a bodyguard that an ordinary person could afford.
Jameson’s four personal bodyguards were seasoned combat veterans. With military and mercenary backgrounds, they were top-
notch fighters.
However, Joseph had single-handedly defeated all four of them in a short span. It showcased Joseph’s exceptional skills.
The onlookers wondered about Catherine’s identity. They thought inwardly, “Why does she have such a powerful and skilled
protector by her side?
“Could it be the bodyguard Vicente arranges for her?”
After thinking it over, they realized that this was the only plausible explanation. Realizing that the situation had taken an
unexpected turn, Jameson quickly changed his attitude and turned to Catherine.
He said, “Miss Swann, I misunderstood the situation earlier, and I apologize. I’m willing to make amends.
“Can I offer you 100 million dollars?”
