All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 868 The Mysterious Man
"Mr. Duncan, the authentication conference went very well," said Paxton excitedly. He had predicted Catherine's success based on her abilities but was still surprised by the news.
Even Branden was joyful. "Book a restaurant for me."
"Alright, I'm on it," answered Paxton. He knew Branden would celebrate with Catherine tonight, so he hurried to arrange dinner and felt happy for her.
Branden's phone buzzed loudly just as Paxton was leaving. It was a message from the mysterious man. He sent a message asking Branden for a project after being missing for two days.
Branden didn't want to waste his time to text to useless people. He dialed the number. Soon, a woman answered his call. "Mr. Branden, can't wait to reach me, huh?"
Branden lowered his eyes and said arbitrarily, "Cut the crap. I'm sick of your voice. What do you want?"
Branden could tell the person was using voice modification software to disguise himself. He could be a woman, or a man, or anything.
The person burst into laughter. "You are very blunt, Mr. Duncan. You are aware that if these photos were exposed, it could have a destructive impact on Miss Swann, right?"
Branden's cold gaze became fierce. He asked, "What else do you have apart from the pictures?"
"Nothing. And I know I can't incriminate her. But those pictures and videos are real, enough to ruin her life.
I'm afraid she will live like a rat, hiding in the darkness," said the person.
"Don't you dare!" Branden was provoked and warned him.
Regardless of his warning, that person was still arrogant. He laughed and smiled, "Mr. Duncan, I'm fully aware of your strength and love for your fiancée. So, I
believe you will give me the land I want, right?"
"Fine. You can have what you want. But how do I know if you have other copies of the pictures?" asked Branden.
"Don't worry about it, Mr. Duncan. If you give me the land, I will ensure you get what you want." That person hung up. Branden stared at his phone coldly and wondered, 'How dare he threaten me with Catherine? Let's if he can bear my anger.'
"Congrats! How about we celebrate together tonight?" Ultan suggested. He was full of joy right now.
Marshall also echoed, "That sounds good. We should celebrate it. I'll book a restaurant." He was not much of a party person, but he felt like a celebration today.
Everyone looked at Catherine and waited for her response.
"Catherine, come with us!" said Rylan gently.
But Catherine refused immediately. "I can't go. I have an appointment tonight."
Rylan's face darkened instantly. He couldn't stand being rejected again and again.
Marshal noticed Rylan's darkened face and tried to lighten the mood. He asked, "Are you going to have dinner with Mr. Duncan?"
"Yeah," Catherine admitted. She just got a message from Branden asking for dinner together.
Marshall laughed. "That's why you turn us down. Well, since you have a date with your boyfriend tonight, there's no reason not to let you go."
While Marshall was talking, Rylan's face was overcast with gloom. Ultan could not bear to watch anymore. He covered his eyes, lost in words.
Marshall saw Catherine off and then turned to Ultan and Rylan. "So, just us now. What's the plan?"
Rylan rejected him without any hesitation. "I'm going back to the company. I'll see you around."
Marshall shrugged when Ultan rolled his eyes at him. "You know that love can't be forced. Forget about them.
Let's have a drink and celebrate."
The two of them had been colleagues and friends for years. Although they were
in different positions, Ultan still felt happy for Marshall.
So he said, "The drinks on you."
"No problem."
"What did you say? Catherine made it?" Finn's eyes widened at the news.
Ronin, who was sitting beside him, was not surprised at all.
Finn looked at him in confusion. "Why aren't you surprised? Have you been aware of this all the time?"
Ronin sneered at him. "You don't know her at all. You have no idea how talented she is."

Ronin couldn't help but feel proud
when he talked about Catherine. Finn had never seen him like this before. Even since Ronin surrendered, he had been totally different from before. Finn had little suspicion of him
because he frankly showed his admiration for Catherine. If he ever
tried to deny it, Finn would
immediately suspect him. The

"Really? If she is so great, why does she never try to rescue you?" Finn
deliberately provoked him.
If this were before, Ronin would have fought with Finn for what he said. But he
only smiled bitterly.

His silence failed Finn. He couldn't
help but provoke him again. "You little shithead! Have you finished what you've been asked to do? I'm gonna beat the shit out of you!" The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest

Ronin threw the mouse away after hearing what he said. "Go ahead," said Ronin.

But there was nothing Finn could do
to him. "Very well. Just wait and see what would happen to you when you are totally useless to the boss." With that, he left the room angrily. The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!
Ronin picked up the mouse and sneered, staring blankly at the computer.
