All Her Secrets

Chapter 411 Connections

Branden went to pick up Catherine from school. After getting her homework, winter break had officially begun. The winter in Casier was a bit cold, so he planned to take Catherine to Oceanvile.

Besides, the business of the Swann Corporation and the Duncan Corporation had been doing well there lately. The man had it all planned out in his mind, but he still needed to ask Catherine’s advice.

“Do you have any plans for winter break? If not, how about I take you to Oceanvile for the winter?”

Catherine might have regarded Branden’s arrangement favorably if she hadn’t taken the training mission to Scorpion Island.

Rodge had messaged her a couple of times for help, and Dr. Dunn had been urging her to make a trip over there.

“No!” Catherine instantly rejected the man. “I’ve got to go to Alton to tutor those brats… I promised and took the money. It can’t be refunded!”

In her opinion, training those rookies was just like tutoring little kids!

“For how long?” The smile on the man’s face was already fading.

Catherine casually replied, “About a month!”

Although it wouldn’t take a month, Catherine preferred to grant a wide range of time to cope with all sorts of changes.

The winter break was less than 40 days, and Catherine would be gone for a month. Three days was long enough for Branden, and when he heard this, his brows instantly furrowed.

“Can’t you not go? I’ll pay for the tuition. Double!”

The man’s generosity took Catherine by surprise. She clicked her tongue and thought, “He offers double without asking me how much the tuition fee is?”

“No, I have to go!” Catherine rejected and winked at the man, a naughty and adorable look on her face.

“I’m not the kind of person who gives in to money. I am a person of principle!

It sounded like a joke, but the man knew that Catherine had made up her mind. Knowing that he couldn’t persuade her, the man could only reach out and embrace Catherine into his arms, letting her sit on his lap and hug her tightly.
