All Her Secrets

The following morning.

Catherine arrived at the training ground on time at eight, and the trainees were all waiting for her, including the newcomer, Branden.

Branden fixed his eyes on Catherine since she showed up and never turned away.

“Sir, this is 0339 reporting for duty.” Branden’s voice was loud, clear, and firm. Catherine was in her usual disguise suit. Like she used to be, she was stern and commanding.

She seemed to look at Branden casually, but she noticed his condition was so much different than it was yesterday.

“Are you sure you want to join the training?” Catherine asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Yes, sir!” Branden bellowed his answer.

Catherine laughed grimly and commanded, “Back in the line.”

That was officially agreeing to Branden’s joining the camp.

The other trainees had no objection to Branden’s joining. The tasks Branden had finished had gotten spread around. Surviving that kind of horrible environment proved his superior strength.

Their training was dangerous and challenging, but it was no match for what Branden had experienced. How dared they object to such a formidable person?

They had the deep-ocean training yesterday, so Catherine decided to have simple physical training this morning.

Hearing the training content, Paxton doubted if Catherine did it on purpose.

She knew Branden should avoid the vigorous exercise and still made such a decision. What would that be if she was not targeting Branden?
