Chapter 839 I Know Who You Are
Branden left the apartment early in the morning and went to the company.
Catherine supposed that If Zobber's information was accurate, Branden should be en route to signing a collaboration with the Breens. Zobber offered to intervene, but Catherine declined. After all, she knew quite well that one couldn't keep people who wanted to leave.
Packing up her things, Catherine headed straight to the lab as if nothing had happened. And upon entering, she found Marshall looking distraught, clearly waiting for her. Catherine sat beside him and asked, "Marshall, were you here waiting for me?"
"Goodness, Catherine. What's caused your delay today?" Marshall replied with a rare look of distress, arising Catherine's interest.
"Look at you. What's troubling you so much?" she inquired.
Finally finding someone to confide in, Marshall seized the opportunity. "Do you remember the list you asked me to submit?"
"Yes, did it get approved?" Catherine responded.
"It did," he said with a mix of relief and worry.
Catherine found this curious, then added, "If it's approved, why are you upset? That's good news, isn't it? If they're willing to fund it, just enjoy it."
However, Marshall didn't seem to think so. He had deliberately inflated the request, seeking to replace equipment that was still functional, aiming to deter Reelyne Technologies. Unexpectedly, they approved it without hesitation, leaving him feeling guilty for the extravagance.
Having been frugal all his life, Marshall now found spending this money
unsettling and couldn't voice his concerns to others, so he turned to Catherine. "Catherine, what's Reelyne Technologies up to? I don't know what their real intention is."
"Marshall, just relax. As long as it benefits the lab, you have nothing to worry about. Their motives don't matter. With me here, they won't succeed," Catherine assured him, calming Marshall's nerves.
"Really?" he said, reassured.
Catherine then added, "Just focus on our research, someone else will handle the rest." 'Reelyne Technologies had the resources, and I would like to help them
spend it-it was like doing a good deed, she said to herself.
Flash arrived at the holding cell with the laptop, having secured Winston's cooperation, on the condition that Ronin join the effort to access Catherine's system. Both were essential for success.
Meanwhile, Ronin was sprawling on the floor, slowly picking himself up.
Flash saw this scene, admiring his quick recovery after administering just a little medicine. He said to Ronin, " Look at you. You're recovering so fast!"
"Well." Ronin scoffed. "It must be because I'm as hard to kill as you."
Understanding the insult, Flash refrained from retaliating but helped Ronin to his feet and said, "The laptop is ready. When will you start?"
Despite being imprisoned and whipped, Ronin remained composed. He stated, I'll cooperate, but I have a condition."
Flash was unsurprised by his demand, as Ronin was always assertive. "What's your condition?" he asked.
Ronin said each word slowly. "I want to see your boss."
Hearing that, Flash frowned, pausing to scrutinize Ronin, seeking his motives.
Ronin, seemingly reading his mind, clarified, "I want to survive, to escape, but you get no authority out there. I must turn to someone who has it."
Flash knew it was wishful thinking. Even if he was under orders, he couldn't command his boss. Yet he couldn't shatter Ronin's hope. Without it, God knows what Ronin would do next.

After hesitating, Flash agreed,"
Alright, I'll do what I can, but I can't make any promises. "Go ahead and ask. I trust they won't let me down," Ronin said with unwavering

Soon, he returned to the cell, summoning Ronin. "Get up. Come with me!" Ronin stood, smirking at Flash. " Curious how I knew?"
Flash waited for his answer. Ronin, smugly, teased, "Do you really want to know?
Well, Guess it for yourself!"
Hearing those words, Flash was infuriated and on the brink of violence,
reluctantly escorted Ronin out.

After looking over the boss, Ronin nonchalantly said, "I know who you are!"
The claim stunned everyone, especially Flash. Silence fell before the man in black ordered, "Ronin, is that really all you've got? Tell me who I am, or I'll kill
you."
Ronin laughed awkwardly. "Lighten up. Come on, it was a joke."
The man's voice lowered, a warning laced within. "I never joke." His eyes conveyed a clear threat. Now, Ronin needed a plausible answer or his life would
end there.
