All Her Secrets

Chapter 783 Returning to Loxton Because of Catherine's intervention, Shane's scheme for Casier Real Estate was quickly broken.

Initially, everyone was prepared to be retaliated by Shane, waiting for her counterattack. However, after a few days, Shane did not do anything at all.

Ronin gave the latest intercepted information to Catherine. "Catherine, Shane took a plane back to Loxton yesterday. He's not in Casier."

Catherine had a Rubik's Cube in her hand. She turned it rapidly with her index finger.

Each side of the cube was still in chaotic colors, but in the next second, each side was turned into one color by Catherine, and she made it with only one hand.

After restoring all the colors on the cube, Catherine messed up its colors and restored them once again.

She was so focused on turning the cube that she didn't seem to be listening to Ronin at all.

Ronin didn't mind. He picked up the extra Rubik's Cube that was thrown on the floor. He tried to turn to make each side of the cube a different color in the same way as Catherine. Although he tried his best, he was far from being able to keep up with Catherine's pace in terms of speed.

"Catherine, if you go to the cube competition, you'll definitely win the championship!"

Catherine had no interest in being a world champion. She just didn't like one-way thinking, which meant that when she was thinking, she must be doing something else at the same time.

After restoring the cube once again, Catherine threw it away and got up from her chair to leave.

Seeing her walk away, Ronin immediately chased after her."

Catherine, what are you going to do?"

Catherine replied, "Packing up and going back to Loxton!"

Since Shane wasn't in Casier, there was no point in her staying, so she might as well go back to Loxton now.

Marshall was still waiting for her to go back and attend classes!

Knowing that Catherine was going back to Loxton, Ronin immediately notified everyone.

Everyone was willing to follow Catherine back to Loxton. They came to Casier to follow Catherine. Now that Catherine was leaving, they naturally needed to follow her back.

After Catherine packed her things, she came downstairs to see Zobber, and the others also finished packing their things. She frowned slightly. "Do you still plan to rest?"

Zobber smiled and said, "Catherine, you plan to rest too. As it happens, I'll take another break for myself and go to Loxton with you guys. I like staying with everyone!"

Zobber didn't want to take missions. Catherine didn't care and let her.

The Hacker Alliance did not require each member to take on a certain amount of missions every month. Usually, when a mission came in, there would be a specialized person who would distribute it to the right member to take it on.

However, the prerequisite was that the members themselves were willing to take on the mission. As long as the price was reasonable and the members were willing to accept it, this mission was considered a successful undertaking.

Over the years, the Hacker Alliance had never failed a mission.

Zobber wanted to take some time off, and Withal didn't want to work either. Ronin wanted to continue to finish his studies, and all of them had the same goal, so they went back to Loxton with Catherine.

In Casier, the Duncan Corporation still had some troublesome follow-up work that required Branden to handle personally. Originally, Branden was planning to send Catherine back to Loxton and then return to Casier to handle the work.

But Catherine said to him, "No, I'll go back with everyone. You don't have to go back and forth. Don't make things complicated."

Catherine wasn't an unreasonable person. She understood Branden. She knew that the Duncan Corporation was big, and there were many things that Branden had to deal with personally every day.

Moreover, because Branden went to Florona this time, there was no one to guard the Duncan Corporation, causing the Duncan Corporation's subsidiary in Casier to suffer quite a bit of repercussions. This was a critical time.

Branden staying there could recover most of the losses, so naturally, Catherine thought that Branden didn't need to send her to Loxton and then come back.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

It wouldn't be too late for Branden to go to Loxton after the matter in Casier was settled.

Seeing Catherine's persistent attitude, Branden agreed with her decision.

He leaned over slightly and kissed her on the forehead, his eyes filled with tenderness. "Call me as soon as you get off the plane. You'll stay at the school dormitory for the next few days while I'm gone. I'll pick you up when I get back!"

Catherine nodded and responded obediently, "Okay!"

Branden only allowed her to leave after seeing her so obedient.

The happiest person when Catherine returned to Loxton was Marshall.

He went to the airport to pick up Catherine in person. Catherine was picked up by Marshall and taken to the laboratory before she even had a chance to say goodbye to the others.

On the way to the laboratory, Marshall didn't forget to complain to Catherine. "You bad girl, you almost killed me."

Catherine frowned at him, clearly puzzled by his words.

Marshall sighed. He still had lingering fear when he talked about it now. "It's about you sneaking out last time. You didn't even know how intimidating your fiancé's behavior was. I'm old and I can't stand being scared like that. Don't put yourself in a dangerous situation next time. I'm afraid your fiancé will really kill me in a fit of rage."

Although Marshall exaggerated a bit, he was more worried about Catherine.

No matter how strong and angry Branden was, he would let Marshall off the hook for the sake of Marshall's mentor-student relationship with Catherine.

Marshall was more worried about Catherine and didn't want Catherine to risk her life. Catherine didn't make a sound in response. Seeing her nod, Marshall felt much more comfortable.

After that, he was ready to give Catherine a task next. "Now that you're back, can you focus on experimenting now? I've helped you take on all those socializing tasks these days.

Catherine couldn't help but laugh out loud at Marshall's look. “Professor Hartley, isn't it nice to have someone treat you to delicious food every day? Why did you still think they almost killed you?"

Marshall despised Catherine when he saw she didn't understand him. He grumbled, "If you like to have delicious food every day, then go participate in those social activities yourself!"

Their team winning the award shocked the entire circle.

Not only did people from all walks of life compete to invite them to attend various activities, gatherings, and meals, but even the higher-ups had arranged quite a few events and gatherings for them.

Marshall would rather stay in the laboratory every day than go out to socialize.

If it were just a matter of asking their laboratory researchers to go out occasionally to make some contacts, Marshall would be willing to pave the way for his students.

It was just that the frequency of such incidents should not be too high. Because of Catherine's departure, Marshall had to take on Catherine's social engagements, too, which was the kind he couldn't put off.

All of his previous social engagements combined didn't add up to the number of social engagements he'd had this month.

Fortunately, Catherine returned in time. He was able to announce to his higher-

ups that the experiment was restarting, that he needed to devote himself to it, and that he could no longer go to socialize.

Facing Marshall with a sad face, Catherine smiled and stood up." Professor Hartley, I'm going to the laboratory!"

Marshall waved his hand impatiently." Hurry up. I leave them all to you!"

He knew Catherine's abilities and was very confident in handing everything over to her.

On the way out of Marshall's office and walking to the laboratory, the cell phone inside Catherine's pocket suddenly rang.

She pulled out her cell phone. The moment she saw the caller ID, her eyebrows immediately furrowed, and her face unconsciously became more serious.
