All Her Secrets

After the training was over, Catherine headed straight to the hospital. At the entrance of the ward, the people guarding Branden saw Catherine and voluntarily saluted her, each one more devout and respectful than the last.

Catherine still had a cold expression on her face, showing no emotions and emitting a formidable aura.

Paxton was inside the ward, and when he saw Catherine enter, he immediately saluted her with admiration in his eyes.

“Miss Swann!”

Catherine glanced at him, her icy gaze at him lingering for only a second before shifting away.

Branden had awakened. Just as Thomas had mentioned, Branden had exhausted himself physically and was too tired, so he fell asleep.

This kind of physical exhaustion was not the ordinary tiredness that was caused by running too much, which only needed some sleep.

Humans had only tapped into less than twenty percent of their physical potential, but under the influence of the experimental reagent, Branden had unlocked more than half of his potential. It was as if all his energy had been emptied, leaving him exhausted and unconscious.

Thomas only said it was excessive sleepiness because he knew how to help Branden’s body recover. But if an ordinary person were in Branden’s situation, it was highly likely that they would never wake up from being physically overused.

The reason why Branden was able to wake up so quickly was not solely due to Thomas’s treatment. The more important factor was that his physical strength was extraordinary.

When Catherine looked at Branden, he was also looking at her. However, the gaze in his eyes, perhaps because of the stern look on his face, looked somewhat weird. It didn’t resemble the joy of seeing someone after a long time but rather a sense of resentment.

Catherine frowned, not understanding what Branden meant.

Was he blaming her?

Catherine’s aura gradually became colder, her face expressionless. The atmosphere in the ward turned thick with tension, and the few people present noticed this as well.

Thomas was the first to break the awkward silence in the ward. After all, he had seen countless scenarios like this.
