All Her Secrets

Branden heard Catherine suddenly change her mind, and his bright eyes lifted, staring straight at her.

"Because of me?" he asked.

Catherine didn't deny it. It was a fact that she returned to Loxton early because of Branden, and there was no need to deny it.

Branden received the news in the morning that Edson had launched an attack on the Duncan Corporation. On Paxton's side, everything was proceeding smoothly according to the previous deployment, and he had nothing to worry about.

But he was pleased knowing that Catherine was worried for him and had even changed her plans. It indicated a steady rise in his position in Catherine's heart.

Branden looked at Catherine in a good mood. "If it's for me, there's really no need. You focus on your matters and don't need to worry on my end." Although the Breens were powerful, Branden didn't regard them highly. If they really moved against the Duncans, even if the Breens put their best foot forward, they might be unable to bring down the Duncans completely.

Seeing his confidence, Catherine didn't continue. After dinner, she asked Branden to take her to the laboratory. Rodge anxiously waited at the laboratory's door, worried that Catherine might not show up. His heart finally settled when he saw her.

"Catherine, yesterday's test results are out. It's indeed as you said-the experiment data had a deviation, causing the infinite loop failure of the experiment." Catherine nodded toward him and then turned to Branden behind her. “I'll contact you after I finish the experiment." After getting a response, Branden left feeling reassured.

The experiment calculations continued until the next morning, which was quite normal for the laboratory. Experiments were long and tedious, often causing researchers to stay awake for days and nights, fully immersed in the laboratory.

After a sleepless night, both Catherine and Rodge were still energetic. They had becaccustomed to these days without a sense of time.

Rodge's mood was evidently high. The problem that had tormented him for a week was easily solved after Catherine appeared.
