All Her Secrets

Catherine immediately got in touch with Branden after leaving the lab. Branden drove to pick up Catherine and took her to Oceanvile's most famous restaurant.

It was a rare outing for them. Catherine was tied up with work, so he decided to help her unwind a bit during her free time.

Catherine didn't mind. She knew everything would be taken care of with Branden around.

However, Branden didn't know that the restaurant he carefully picked out would lead Catherine to run into an acquaintance.

Erick was stunned when he saw Catherine, but he quickly realized the situation. "Catherine, you're in Oceanvile!" he greeted in delight.

After looking up, Catherine caught sight of Erick. Her expression softened as she replied, "Just cover for something urgent." "Great! I didn't expect to bump into you here. What a coincidence! Let's have dinner together, Catherine," Erick said with excitement.

The restaurant owner, who was standing next to Erick, was astonished at Erick's behavior. He had known Erick for stand was used to Erick's distant demeanor.
