All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 339 You Can Do it
Catherine suddenly looked up. Her original cold gaze had a devilish look in it now. She curled her lips and chuckled lowly.
Catherine was enchanting and mesmerizing, yet giving off a creepy vibe.
“So, are you envious or jealous of me?” Catherine asked. Bryan was, without a doubt, an outstanding man. The same goes for
Ronin, who got first place in the National Olympiad and was granted special admission to Loyalty Academy.
Both boys had different looks and demeanor, but both were giants among men. Few people were on par with them. Any girl
would be green with envy to have such boys defending her. Upon hearing that, Emma was fuming.
She seemed like a mouse with its tail stepped on, and hair bristled with rage. Her oval eyes widened in anger as she glowered at
Catherine. “Do you think everyone is the same as you? I am Emma Hazel. Do I even have a reason to be jealous of you?”
Catherine scoffed coldly. Following that, she lifted her brows and looked up. There was a look of mild displeasure on her face.
She said coldly, “So you finally realize that you’re the one acting like a fool?”
Emma was boiling with anger to see how arrogant Catherine was behaving. The event was being broadcast live. It would not be
good if the public saw this.
Hence, a friend of Emma’s came over to persuade her. “Emma, forget it. Why do you want to quarrel with someone like that?
“For people like them, who knows if they can get to the semi-finals.”
Only now did Emma realize what had happened. She had been led by the nose by Catherine. Once she composed herself, she
imitated Catherine’s expression and chuckled coldly at Catherine again.
“I’ll see you at the finals. That is if you manage to get there.” Emma had a very arrogant attitude, as if she were certain that
Catherine would not be able to get to the finals.
As he watched Emma and the rest leave, Ronin felt very aggrieved.” Catherine, why did you hold me back? I want to tear her
mouth in pieces.”
He was furious at how anyone could behave so arrogantly toward him. Did they think that he was someone who they could
easily bully?

As compared to how angry Ronin was, Catherine was very calm. She stuck her hands into her pockets and said casually, “Didn’t
you hear the loudspeaker announce that it’s our team’s turn?”
Ronin immediately snapped out of it. Hearing that the announcer was already urging their team to prepare, they had to rush to
the backstage.
Liana was sitting in the waiting area. She was in a good mood. Earlier, she was overjoyed to see Emma calling Catherine out.
Now, she was looking forward to seeing Catherine make a fool of herself on stage.
Catherine had only gotten the news that the production team had changed the competition format close to the competition date.
She did not believe that Catherine’s team had time to make changes to their performance!
It would be very satisfying to see Catherine’s team not being able to even get through the preliminary rounds!
The music sounded. The eighth team performance officially started. Liana had guessed correctly. Indeed, Catherine did not have
time to change their performance, so they decided to perform their original arrangement.
There was no stage performance but just pure singing. The three wore the same outfits. The boys standing on either side of
Catherine were handsome, but Catherine was the most captivating. The moment she appeared, she captured everyone’s
attention.
Catherine seemed to have a natural affinity for the stage. No matter the occasion or setting, Catherine could become the
brightest star as long as she was willing.
The moment the trio appeared, the audience at the venue and the online audience got into an uproar. After all, everyone loved to
see a team of attractive people.
Meanwhile, at the Duncan Corporation. Triston took two sets of contracts and rolled them up. Using them like microphones, he
shouted through the hole, “Come on, Catherine! You can do it! You’re the best!”
Paxton coldly stared at Triston as the latter continued this idiotic act. Paxton felt that it was beneath his dignity to do something
like that.
Triston was not bothered by Paxton’s contempt toward him. He did not dare ask Branden, sitting quietly at the side, to join him.
Hence, he could only target Paxton.

Triston pulled onto Paxton’s hand and said seriously, “This is your boss’ future wife. As one of his subordinates, you aren’t
cheering for her. Aren’t you worried that he’ll fire you for this?”
Paxton frowned when he heard Triston’s words. Feeling immense pressure assaulting him, he turned to look at Branden.
However, Paxton realized Branden, who usually did not like entertainment, was watching the monitor intently.
He was so focused that one might think he was discussing a deal that involved hundreds of billions of dollars!
Triston softly muttered, “Paxton, don’t blame me for not reminding you. If you want to have an easy time in the future, it’s better
for you to be more proactive now.”
Triston said, “Come, let us cheer for her together! Catherine, you’re the best!”
Paxton frowned and hesitated momentarily before saying coldly, ” You can do it...”
When Triston saw Paxton’s expression, he wanted to laugh so badly. It was simply hilarious! Triston said, “Yes, that’s it. Be more
passionate. Repeat after me. Catherine, you can do it...”
After a momentary pause, Paxton chose to listen to Triston’s suggestion. Their cheering voices rose and fell in succession.
There was a cheerful, festive atmosphere in the usual solemn office.
The atmosphere at the Duncan Corporation was very lively, and Catherine’s live performance was also exceptional. Previously,
during Loyalty Academy’s celebration gala, Catherine’s group had already astonished many people.
However, this time, their performance was even more impressive. With time, the chemistry between the three of them had slowly
developed. Even in some difficult parts, Catherine and the two boys could coordinate perfectly.
The entire performance could be said to be an extravaganza. Catherine’s divine voice lulled everyone into a dream-like state.
At the judges panel, Grayson looked at that star shining brilliantly on stage. The excitement coursing through him was
indescribable.
At that moment, all he wanted was to have a giant barrier that could cover the stage. That way, nobody would have a chance to
witness how brilliantly this star was shining!
After the song ended, the audience did not react for a moment. After a few seconds, thunderous applause filled the venue.
Emma was sitting below the stage, and her original disdain-filled gaze was now filled with amazement.

“She can even sing so well live. Looks like she has real singing skills!” Emma thought. The host went up the stage and briefly
introduced the song before inviting the judges to comment on Catherine’s team.
The maximum points that a group could obtain was ten points. The first judge gave eight points, indicating his acknowledgment
of the team’s ability. This judge was a famous producer in the music industry.
The host asked, “Mr. Stewart, can you tell us why you gave this group a rather high mark?”
Gregory Stewart replied, “I gave them this score after comprehensively evaluating their team. The judging criteria also mention
that the judges must score the team based on their overall performance. Although this group sings well, their stage performance
is just so-so. They didn’t even dance. Thus, I only gave them eight points!”
This was the truth. His scoring was relatively reasonable, so everyone could accept his explanation.
The second judge was an exceptionally outstanding performer who rated Catherine’s group with a nine. That was because she
felt that Catherine had great singing skills, which made up for the lack of stage performance.
Finally, it was time for Grayson to comment. The host turned her gaze to him excitedly. Whenever it was Grayson’s turn to
comment, the host would enthusiastically ask him many more questions.
She had no choice but to do that as Grayson was the program’s biggest selling point and could get the show onto trending
topics.
The host asked, “Mr. Clifford, I saw earlier that you didn’t really look at them throughout the entire performance. Is that because
you’re dissatisfied with this group?”
This host was indeed one who was famous for her sharp tongue. She gave Grayson such a tough question. It was obvious that
she was trying to stir things up!
Everyone held their breaths in anticipation of Grayson’s answer.
