All Her Secrets

Chapter 800 Rylan’s Visit

Rylan had been unable to find Catherine for two consecutive days. Finally, after investigating with her roommate, Amelia, he learned that Catherine hadn’t returned to the dorm or the lab during these two days.

With no other choice, Rylan decided to visit Catherine’s apartment.

“Ding-dong!” When the doorbell rang, Catherine was still lounging on the sofa, eating fruit, and watching a variety show.

Thinking it might be her food delivery, she was about to put down the fruit bowl to answer the door.

Branden, however, was one step ahead. He had already set aside his laptop, stood up proactively, and confidently declared, “Wait here. I’ll get it for you.”

With someone taking care of it, Catherine didn’t need to exert any effort. She continued watching the variety show, her gaze fixed on the amusing scenes.

As the door opened, both men were momentarily stunned. Branden stared at the cold-eyed man outside, assessing him from head to toe.

“You’ve got some nerve. I haven’t even come to settle the score with you, and here you are, boldly showing up at my doorstep. Seems like you’re not afraid of trouble, huh?” said Branden inwardly.

Seeing Branden, Rylan was also taken aback. He finally understood the reason behind Catherine’s two-day disappearance.

So, she was hiding out in the apartment with this man. The thought fueled a nameless anger within Rylan. His eyes involuntarily narrowed as he emanated a chilling aura.

His imposing presence clashed with Branden’s equally strong aura. Branden showed no signs of weakness. After all, this was his territory.

Seeing Branden take quite some time to fetch the takeout and not return, Catherine paused the variety show and went to check.

As she reached the doorway, she witnessed two tall men facing off, glaring at each other with an air of mutual displeasure.

Catherine thought that if she had arrived a bit later, these two men might have ended up in a physical confrontation at the doorstep.
