All Her Secrets

In the study of the Duncans’. Paxton rushed in with his laptop and placed it in front of Branden.
“Mr. Duncan. We can no longer hold on! Upon hearing Paxton’s words, Branden was somewhat surprised. It was unexpected
that his hacker team could also experience defeat.
This team was built by him personally and had been through a lot of training. It had never been defeated before. He handed over
this team to Paxton, who was also a computer expert and had never made a mistake.
Despite knowing that it was difficult to breach the firewall of Hacker Alliance, he did not expect to be traced by the other party so
quickly.
His pitch-dark eyes glittered as he fixed his gaze intently on the computer screen and observed every single fluctuation in the
data displayed on it.
There wasn’t any expression or posture from head to toe, but he emanated a fierce aura that discouraged anyone from meeting
his gaze. “What’s going on?”
A cold voice immediately snapped Paxton, who was deeply immersed in his thoughts, back to reality. He quickly reported the
situation.
“Sir, it was our negligence. We didn’t expect the other party to set up anti- tracking traps right from the beginning. All of our IDs
have been intercepted, and even our location has been discovered by them.”
Paxton hung his head in embarrassment, feeling that he had never been so ashamed in his entire life. He even believed he no
longer had the dignity to face Branden. Upon hearing the report, Branden, with a noble and mysterious aura, didn’t criticize
Paxton..
“We were originally in a winning position, but just five minutes ago, the opponent suddenly switched to another person. This
person’s behavior was somewhat similar to the previous one. At first, we thought it was the same person, but we were proven
completely wrong in the next second. This person was really impressive!”
Amid Paxton’s speech, Branden’s slender fingers were already tapping on the keyboard. On the spacious screen, lines of code
scrolled by swiftly.
At a speed that most ordinary people couldn’t even keep up with, top hackers not only had to memorize the quickly scrolling
code but also had to decipher each and every one of them.

They even had to detect and identify the hidden bugs and closely track the other party’s location to eliminate them. This was a
game where every second counted.
There was a chance that being just 0.01 seconds behind the opponent could result in losing the entire battle. Ronin got replaced
by Catherine and was now sitting on the side watching the action while helping her fix a few bugs.
“The other party was a team, but my boss was just on her own,” thought Ronin. He was getting ready to boast about the
greatness of his boss, but the other party suddenly became very powerful. His eyes widened instantaneously, and he exclaimed
in astonishment, “What the fuck!
“Boss, is that guy attacking us on drugs or what? How come he suddenly became so aggressive and intense?”
Catherine couldn’t help but roll her eyes and sarcastically comment about Ronin’s way of thinking that she reluctantly accepted.
“You can’t even tell that the person has been replaced?”
“A different person?” Ronin exclaimed in shock, “There’s actually someone who’s skilled enough to rival us? His strength is
simply astounding!”
The previous group of people had left a deep impression on Ronin. It was unexpected to see a supreme expert joining the battle.
He had initially planned to sit back and watch comfortably, but now, he must exert extreme effort to provide logistical support for
Catherine.
“Should have called that brat Joseph Green to help earlier. I thought Boss could handle everything, but it turns out the other side
had their own big shot,” said Ronin inwardly.
Compared to Ronin’s startled and apprehensive reaction, Catherine remained remarkably calm and composed. On that stunning
face, within a pair of beautiful large eyes, there was a rare hint of playfulness and amusement at this moment.
Ronin was right. The other party’s strength was indeed formidable. It had been a considerable amount of time since she last met
such a pro.
She wouldn’t enjoy playing to her fullest if the other party were still at the same level as before. “There is now someone
competent. I can also have a good time.
“It is time for me to take action finally, thought Catherine. In the final ten minutes, there would surely be a conclusive outcome.
Both sides were experts among experts, and the battle was particularly intense.

Ronin’s heart was in his throat. Even his breathing became cautious. He hadn’t had this feeling for many years, and he couldn’t
even guarantee now that his Boss would definitely win.
This was a feeling he had never experienced before. The other party’s power was indeed too strong, which had caused him to
have such an illusion.
The countdown began.
Three...
The results were out. Ronin instinctively closed his eyes, afraid to look at it. After a long time had passed, he realized that there
was no sound and opened his eyes timidly, only to find that the computer screen had turned black.
He hurriedly turned to Catherine, saying, “Boss, how did it go? What’s the result?” Catherine had seen it clearly when Ronin
covered his face and dared not look at the screen earlier. She gave Ronin a disdainful look and then told him the answer. “It’s a
tie!”
“What?” Ronin’s eyes nearly popped out, and he looked at Catherine with a twitch in his mouth. “It’s a tie? The opponent can
actually fight you to a tie. Boss, is there really such a powerful person in this world?”
In the eyes of Ronin, Catherine was already invincible. He did not believe that there was anyone more powerful than her.
Catherine took a sip of water calmly, relieving the dryness in her throat.
After devouring so many salty and spicy dishes just now without even having a chance to drink coffee, she was summoned by
Ronin for some intense work and was indeed quite thirsty now.
“Yeah, impressive strength!”
Hacker Alliance was on the defensive side, while the attackers were on the offensive side today. The attacker appeared out of
nowhere and clearly wasn’t ready for this.
Catherine couldn’t guarantee she wouldn’t be overcome if the other party launched an attack after adequate preparation. It
appeared that the program she wrote three years ago was due for an upgrade.
It was more than adequate for dealing with regular hackers, but there were still loopholes when facing top players.

Ronin was unable to recover from shock for a long time. Catherine couldn’t be bothered to appreciate his foolish appearance and
ended the video call directly to have a rest. She had worked hard all day and needed some rest. On the other side, in the study
of the Duncans’.
Paxton was also staring at the screen with a shocked look. He never expected Branden to end up with a tie in the battle. “Mr.
Duncan, is this person a god? So powerful?”
In the eyes of Paxton, Branden was akin to a divine entity. Branden’s profound gaze was fixed tightly on the computer screen
while his powerful mind repeatedly deduced every step that had just been taken.
He was a person who pursued perfection and did not tolerate unnecessary failures. After several meticulous analyses, he could
confirm that the opponent was indeed very strong.
Moreover, he could tell that the other person’s computer expertise might even surpass his. It must be an absolute computer
genius.
“Investigate it! I want to know all the information about this person!”
Upon hearing the order from Branden, Paxton did not dare to hesitate and responded promptly, “Sure, I will do it at once.”
