All Her Secrets

Paxton’s heart sank, and he rushed out of the surveillance room towards the training ground. Jon slowly emerged from the
dense jungle with his teammates and made his way to the training ground.
The instructors’ team had suffered severe damage, and those who could still stand were supporting each other, looking
defeated.
Paxton became infuriated when he saw Jon. He charged at Jon, grabbing him by the collar and yelling, “Isn’t this just training? Is
it necessary to take it so seriously? Are you happy only if the whole team is wiped out?”
Jon, exhausted and powerless, was no match for Paxton. He allowed Paxton to grab his collar and scold him.
After a while, Jon finally caught his breath. Weakly, he pointed behind himself, saying, “Look!”
Paxton, confused, instinctively looked up and was instantly shocked.
His boss, Branden, was leading a group of people, approaching them. He walked at the forefront with an imposing aura, followed
by a group of exactly seven people.
All eight teammates survived!
Jon stared at Paxton, looking helpless.
“You can let go now, man!”
Paxton finally realized what was happening and released his grip. He gave Jon a push, showing his disgust.
Jon was so angry that he wanted to attack Paxton. If he had enough strength, he would have done so.
Paxton rushed towards Branden. In this situation, his boss could still achieve victory with his seven teammates being alive. It
was truly impressive. It was a miracle!
Facing Paxton’s enthusiasm, Branden simply bypassed him and walked in the direction behind him.
Paxton felt embarrassed and turned around to take a look. Catherine stood dominantly not far away, leaning against a pillar of
the training frame with a very relaxed posture. Branden walked straight to Catherine, his gaze never leaving her.

Paxton couldn’t bear to watch that scene. Since he couldn’t embrace Branden, he could only choose to greet the three Duncan
brothers.
Catherine stood silently in place, her gaze coldly fixed on Branden approaching her. Branden stopped a step away from
Catherine and saluted her. A deep smile gradually appeared in his eyes.
“Reporting to the instructor, Trainee 0399 has completed the task. Please give further instructions!”
Catherine raised an eyebrow, and her once cold expression gradually softened. “Good job. Assessment complete.
Congratulations, 0399, you have successfully graduated!”
As Catherine spoke, Branden took another step closer.
“Thank you. May I hold your hand now?
Catherine watched as the distance between them narrowed. She even began to admire the audacity of this man to push his luck.
He could always seize every single chance she gave him.
“0399, I’m your instructor. It’s not appropriate for you to be so attentive to your instructor, isn’t it?”
Branden was momentarily stunned, seemingly not expecting Catherine to tease him like this.
“My instructor?” he murmured inwardly. “Good point. Can’t believe you can come up with such a good excuse.”
Catherine blinked at him and smiled triumphantly. “What’s wrong, Trainee 0399? Do you have any objections to your instructor?”
When Branden saw the smile on her face, his grievances instantly disappeared. Since she was the girl he loved, he had to bear
with her, and any objections would be useless.
“No objections. Whatever the instructor says is right!”
The smile on Catherine’s face grew wider. Branden could be considered a gentleman. At least he could handle her teasing.
“Good. Congratulations on your successful graduation!”
Catherine reached out her hand, holding it out in the air.
Branden extended his hand and firmly held hers. A smile instantly appeared on his face.

“Thank you, Instructor!”
But the next moment, Catherine sensed something was off about Branden. Her expression instantly turned serious. “What’s
wrong?”
Branden struggled to force a bitter smile. “The effects of the drugs have worn off!”
Catherine immediately realized that Branden had used some banned drugs gain, and now the effects had worn off. She quickly
helped Branden up and pulled him in the direction of the hospital.
Branden had initially wanted to tell her that he could manage to walk on his own. But then, he realized that she rarely showed
such concern for him, so he decided to keep quiet.
Jon was shocked to see Catherine holding onto Branden and leaving so quickly. He lowered his voice and whispered to Paxton
beside him, “Is it appropriate for Mr. Anon to act like this in public?”
Paxton rolled his eyes at him and replied, “What’s wrong with it? You’re making a big deal out of nothing. They have a normal
romantic relationship, not an affair!”
Jon was even more shocked. He didn’t expect Paxton to be so open-minded.
Was this acceptable?
Could it be that Paxton was also a... Thinking of how Paxton interacted with the Duncan trio, Jon suddenly felt uneasy. The more
he thought about it, the more nervous he became. He instinctively distanced himself from Paxton.
Catherine and Branden went to Thomas. Thomas seemed to have been waiting for Branden, as he immediately called over the
medical staff to support Branden when Branden appeared.
“You brat, aren’t you afraid of death? You’re more than half an hour late.
Aren’t you worried about your own life?
As Catherine watched Thomas angrily take Branden away, her eyes couldn’t help but darken. She stopped Thomas and blocked
his way.

Thomas had a bad temper, and he had his own rules when it came to treating and saving people. He didn’t allow others to
interfere.
But if it was Catherine, then things were different.
Thomas looked at Catherine with a loving expression. “Cassie, if there’s anything you need, just tell me, and I’ll take care of it for
you!”
“Mr. Theo, how is Branden now?” Catherine asked directly.
When it came to Branden’s condition, a frown appeared on Thomas’s face.” This young man is quite headstrong.
His injuries are more severe than yours were back then, yet he stubbornly held on. This is crazy. If anything goes wrong, he
could lose his life.”
Back then, Ronin had found a lot of doctors for Catherine, and many of them had admitted their helplessness after examining her
condition. It was only after he found Thomas that she was successfully treated.
At that time, Catherine was feeling very terrible, but what surprised her was that Branden’s condition now was even more serious
than hers back then.
It seemed that Branden was truly pushing himself to the brink of death with an unyielding determination.
To be so ruthless towards himself, this man was truly merciless.
