All Her Secrets

Chapter 889 A Big Trap
In the room, Catherine had just walked in, and Ronin quickly grabbed a chair for her. However, Catherine didn't sit down. Instead, she pushed Ronin into the chair, saying, "Have a seat. Your head is still spinning, isn't it?"
Seeing Catherine's concern, Ronin flashed a wide grin, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "Catherine, ask whatever you want. I'm afraid if we delay going out, Zobber will be upset outside."
"Don't mind her. She's clueless. You don't have to pay attention to what she says," Catherine replied.
"Don't worry, Catherine. I don't mind. I've known Zobber for so long. I understand her personality. Besides, she cares about me, in her own way," Ronin said.
Ronin harbored no resentment toward Zobber. Despite her words of disbelief, she had never mistreated him in practical actions. Whenever there was something good, she would call him first, and when he was in trouble, Zobber was the first to help.
Seeing Ronin's carefree attitude, Catherine felt somewhat relieved. "Who sent people to get you?"
"Finn. He said the head wanted me back, but after they knocked me out, they didn't take me back. It's been about ten minutes since they left until you guys arrived," Ronin replied. He explained the situation in detail, and that was all he knew.
Catherine pondered silently, and Ronin didn't dare to disturb her. Catherine didn't appreciate interruptions when she was deep in thought.
"I'll investigate this matter. You rest here for today." Catherine said. This was their base, and whoever wanted to mess with Ronin should think twice.
Despite Catherine's suggestion, Ronin disagreed. He said, "Catherine, I want to go back tonight."
Catherine's eyes darkened, and she stared at him coldly. Though she didn't speak, her expression clearly conveyed her disapproval.
"Catherine, they won't harm me. They still need to use me. You don't need to worry about my safety," Ronin said.
Though Ronin might not lose his life, he could endure some physical pain. Catherine didn't want Ronin to be in trouble again.
Ronin unusually insisted, "Catherine, I understand your concern, but I still want to go."
Seeing she couldn't stop him, Catherine decided to let go and allowed Ronin to take his chances. "Fine, but be safe. Contact me if there's any problem.
"Yeah!" Ronin nodded happily. Protected by Catherine for so many years, now he wanted to make something happen through his own efforts.
However, there was something that Ronin found quite puzzling." Catherine, since you already have evidence to expose him, why continue to play along with him?"
Catherine squinted her eyes and looked ahead with a sharp, cold gaze. "If he wants to play, then let's play along. I want to see how this big act of his will end. There are still some things I haven't figured out. Once I do, his good days will be over."
Hearing Catherine's response, Ronin felt excited. He looked forward to the day when all the humiliation he suffered would be repaid. Without him having to lift a finger, Catherine would naturally settle the score for him.
"Catherine, let's go out," Ronin said.
"Alright," Catherine replied.
Zobber perked up when she heard the sound of the door opening. "You two are out. What did you talk about?"
Ronin looked downhearted and glanced at Zobber. "How about you go in and endure a round of Catherine's interrogation?"
Zobber silently stepped back. "Forget it. I don't want it."
"I'm tired. I'll go back and rest first. Catherine, are you coming?" Ronin asked.
Catherine nodded and took the lead.
"They just left like that?" Zobber looked at Withal beside her with confusion.
You care too much!" Withal said with disdain, glancing at her before turning away and ignoring her.
Seeing that no one paid attention to her, Zobber ceased her curiosity.
Ronin returned to the base and encountered Finn, who was guarding the entrance. Finn wasn't surprised to see him and greeted, "Come on. The head is waiting for you inside."
His calm demeanor caught Ronin off guard. "You knew I would come to see the head early in the morning?" Ronin asked with surprise.
Finn glanced at him and said coldly, It's not that I knew. The head knew."
Seeing that Ronin still wanted to ask, Finn warned with a gloomy face, " Ronin, don't think about challenging the head. Do you need me to tell you how
miserable the death would be?"

Ronin held back what he wanted to
say, chuckled, and silently followed Finn. He had initially wanted to askn Finn why he had subdued him and then suddenly let go. However, it seemed that Finn had likely been warned in advance. Ronin knew that asking wouldn't produce any results, so he didn't want to waste his efforts. Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
Soon, Ronin saw the man in the black robe. Finn left the room, leaving them
alone.
As soon as they met, the man in the black robe slowly raised his head and looked at Ronin, saying, "Ronin, are you curious why I had Finn bring you back and then suddenly dumped you on the roadside?"

Ronin felt uneasy, not understanding
the purpose behind the man bringing up this matter. After a moment ofm contemplatibi, Ronin decided to be
honest. "I don't know. When I woke up, I only saw Catherine. I thought it was just a coincidence that they came, so Finn didn't take me away to avoid conflict." Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this

"That's part of the reason." The man in the black robe nodded in agreement. When Catherine and Zobber came out of the apartment building, they received
the message.
While Ronin was still pondering the meaning behind the man's words, he suddenly returned to his high seat and said something inexplicable. He added,
"Most importantly, these pastries taste good!"

Ronin looked up and saw that the
man was holding the pastries he had bought for Catherine. He didn't seen them when he woke up, thinking they had been left at the scene, but he
didn't expect Finn to bring them back. Unable to understand the man's purpose, Ronin remained silent. Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
"Ronin, now that you've returned to Catherine and are slowly being accepted
back by them, shouldn't you fulfill the promise you made to me initially?" the man
asked.
The inevitable had come, and Ronin had known that the man wouldn't let him go
so easily. "Sir, please instruct."
Ronin's respectful attitude pleased the man. He looked at Ronin, who was
bowing his head, and asked slowly, " Within the Hacker Alliance, there is a confidential customer database. You should know about it, right?"
Ronin's heart trembled fiercely. He didn't expect this to be the man's objective. It
was a big trap, waiting for them to fall into it. Carefully, he answered, "I've heard about it, sir. Are you asking for...?"
