All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 502 Return to Casier At the Swanns’.

Withal was investigating the account of the Bank of Nospines on the computer. After seeing a series of

numbers change, he happily waved his hand to greet Catherine.

“Catherine, we’ve got the money.”

Just now, they received the commission from Ravenloth, marking the completion of this mission.

Catherine was leaning on the side, playing a game. As the sound of gunfire rang out, a burst of green

smoke rose, signifying the end of the battle.

She threw her phone aside and turned her gaze back to Withal.

“Contact Rodge and transfer the money to him.”

“Are we giving it to Arbotte Laboratory again?” Withal felt a bit distressed.

Although this sum of money belonged to Catherine, and she could spend it however she liked, the

operation of Arbotte Laboratory was too expensive.

Several hundred million dollars were being used there, and Catherine didn’t allow anyone to complain

about it.

Catherine glanced at Withal again, and he understood what she meant. He dared not say anything

more and immediately called Rodge.

Rodge’s laboratory was in dire need of funds. He had originally planned to hold on a little longer before

contacting Catherine. After all, he had indeed spent too much money, but he didn’t expect to receive a

call from Withal so soon.

With the new funds coming in, the laboratory became active again. Rodge couldn’t be happier.

“Mr. Withal, please thank the chief for me!”

Withal reluctantly said, “Save it.”

Every time Rodge said thanks, it cost several hundred million dollars, and Withal couldn’t afford it.

The only one who could afford it was Catherine. Just as Withal finished the call with Rodge, Branden

returned with Paxton.

When Withal returned with Catherine, he noticed that Branden and Paxton were not there. Thinking

that they had probably gone out for something, he asked others and found out that they had been

summoned to the palace by the king.

Withal immediately panicked, thinking that the king wanted to renege on the deal and hold Branden

and Paxton hostage. He immediately planned to rush to the palace.

But he was stopped by Catherine, who looked at him with an indifferent expression and asked, “Do you

think the Duncans are pushovers?”

This simple sentence brought Withal back to reality. Catherine was right. If even Branden couldn’t

handle the situation, Withal would only make things worse by going there.

Branden was Catherine’s man, so if Catherine wasn’t worried at all, Withal shouldn’t be too.

Withal regained his composure.

As Catherine expected, the king obediently allowed Branden to return. As soon as Branden entered, he

walked straight towards Catherine and sat down next to her.

After he took his seat, Catherine comfortably leaned against his thigh.

“Is everything taken care of?” Catherine raised an eyebrow and looked at Branden. Branden nodded

slightly. “I’ve taken care of my end. What about you?”

Catherine smirked, feeling somewhat proud. “I’ve got the money, anyway.”

Seeing her joyful expression, Branden reached out and patted her head. ” Great, when are you

planning to go back?”

Without hesitation, Catherine answered, “Now!”

Paxton and Withal, who were nearby, exchanged a glance subconsciously, thinking that Catherine was

acting a bit crazy.

Although they all wanted to return as soon as possible, this seemed a bit rushed. In the next moment,

Catherine realized that the time she mentioned was a bit tight.

It might be too late to contact the airlines now, so she was planning to change the schedule. However,

to her surprise, Branden nodded and agreed to her idea.

“Alright, go upstairs and pack. I’ll arrange the plane. We’ll leave soon!”

Catherine hesitated and asked him, ” Won’t it be too tight on time?”

“No!” Branden looked at her tenderly.” The exam results will be announced tomorrow. It’s perfect to go

back in the evening so we can check the results together tomorrow.”

Branden thought that she wanted to rush back to check the exam results, but in fact, Catherine just

wanted to go back to her homeland and enjoy the food there, as she was tired of the cuisine in

Ravenloth.

Even though many of the ingredients were flown in from Chritie, the taste was still different from what

she had in her home country.

Hearing this, Paxton knew that this matter had been settled and there was no room for negotiation. He

obediently contacted the airlines and urgently arranged the flight.

His boss, Branden, really doted on his woman. Even if Catherine said she wanted the moon, he would

contact the space agency without hesitation.

Seeing Branden doting on his wife to the point of madness, Paxton sighed silently and shook his head

as he left.

Withal quietly gave a thumbs-up to Catherine. “Catherine, I’ll go pack and leave with you too. There’s

no need for me to stay here anymore.”

They had arrived silently, and they left without a trace.

It wasn’t until the plane took off and left Ravenloth’s airspace that the king received the news. He was

furious. “You bunch of idiots! Four grown adults left just like that, and you didn’t know?”

The officials responsible for the investigation knelt on the ground, afraid to utter a word. They truly

didn’t expect this group of people to be so powerful.

The private plane slowly landed at the airport in Casier. This was a private exclusive apron where the

Duncans’ private planes in Casier took off and landed. As soon as the plane came to a stop, the

Duncans’ guards approached respectfully, waiting by the side.

The sudden appearance of the guards surprised the people on the plane. Withal couldn’t help but make

a joke. “I know our identities are somewhat special, but do we really need such a grand reception?”

Branden subtly glanced at Paxton, who immediately went forward to inquire about the situation.

Afterwards, Paxton looked at Branden with a serious expression.

“Boss, Mr. Karl requests your presence.

Branden’s eyebrows slightly furrowed. “I see. Send Catherine back first.”

Right after Branden said that, Paxton looked at Branden with a reluctant expression. “Boss, Mr. Karl

said he wants you to bring Miss Swann along.”

After Paxton finished his sentence, he shrank his neck and didn’t dare to move. He understood better

than anyone else the importance of Catherine to Branden. Now that Karl suddenly wanted to see her,

he didn’t know what was going on. Moreover, it seemed that Karl didn’t inform Branden in advance.

No one knew why Karl wanted to see Catherine. What if it was because of something unpleasant?

What would happen?

Branden’s slightly furrowed brows tightened. He turned his head to look at Catherine. As long as she

showed any displeasure, he would immediately refuse Karl’s request, even if it would anger Karl.

However, Catherine showed no displeasure. She just nodded indifferently. “Let’s go!”

Hearing Catherine’s response, Branden asked, “Are you really going?”

Catherine nodded without hesitation.” Since I’m invited, why not?”
