All Her Secrets

After Kason hung up the call, he looked at Catherine. His gaze changed immediately as soon as his eyes met Catherine’s. He looked more respectful and humble than before.

Before he could speak, two middle- aged men barged into the lobby. They looked anxious.

It had attracted everyone’s attention. From the uniform of the two officers, it could be seen their ranks were high from the badges on their shoulders.

Kason greeted the officers respectfully with a salute. “Inspector, Sir, why are all of you here?”

The two officers glared at Kason, expressing their dissatisfaction. The commissioner had called them personally, and the matter seemed urgent. They dared not disobey his order.

The two officers looked around and saw Paxton. After confirming he was the one, the inspector approached him and respectfully greeted Paxton.

“Mr. Duncan, it’s a pleasure to meet you. You should have sent your subordinate instead of coming over personally.”

Paxton glanced at the officer and was still stern. His attitude did not change just because these two were of a higher status than Kason.

“Did the commissioner contact you?” asked Paxton.

“Yes. We didn’t know it was you, Mr. Duncan. Sorry for the inconvenience caused,” said the inspector as he bowed slightly. Everyone could see his humble attitude toward Paxton.

Paxton glanced at the inspector and introduced Catherine to the officers.” This is Miss Swann, the victim of this case.”

Paxton was smart. His attitude when introducing Catherine had explained Catherine’s status to the officers. He had even straightforwardly told the officers that she was the victim.

The inspector glanced at Catherine. From Catherine’s young and beautiful appearance and her extraordinary temperament, he could tell her status was unique.
