After entering the room, Joseph put the safe he had been carrying on the table.Joseph looked coldly ahead and made such a strong presence that intimidated others when he entered the room."Mr. Duncan, this is the chip Hacker Alliance has just developed. We can sell it to you at the original price and give your company exclusive use for a year. But you must promise to give us 30 percent of the development project shares."Apart from looking at Joseph once when he came into the room, Branden did not look at him again.After hearing Joseph's condition, Branden turned to look at him slowly.On his handsome face, his deep eyes looked cold and bottomless.Just a look from him was enough to make Joseph's heart skip a beat, even though he was usually bold.Branden was too horrible. He was even scarier than Joseph's Boss.Branden's fingers moved slightly on his knee, and Paxton knew what he meant immediately.Paxton looked up at Joseph with the same cold and expressionless face."My
Two minutes later, the rest of Branden's men arrived in a rush. They saw Branden holding a black trench coat in his hands, standing rooted on the spot looking gloomy.One of them plucked up his courage, went up to Branden, and asked, "Mr. Duncan, is he gone?"Branden didn't need to answer, as one could see how things were at a glance.Branden glanced at the mannequin on the floor, an arrogant ridicule at him.It was the first time for him to have a taste of defeat. A creepy smile appeared on his gloomy face.Branden's men, who had been with him for so many years, couldn't help but shiver in fear after seeing his smile.They rarely saw Branden get mad at anything. However, the angrier Branden was, the calmer he would appear. From the smile on Branden's face, they could tell that he was really furious.They all knew that someone was in big trouble. However, they did not know who that person was yet.Branden ordered coldly, "Secure the bar immediately. I don't want to see even a f
Branden rolled down the window, took out a pack of cigarettes from the side, and was about to flip it open.However, seeing Catherine's brows slightly furrowed, Branden put the pack of cigarettes back and rolled the window back up.Everything happened in silence. It was as though nothing had happened.Branden stared at the cold expression on Catherine's face. A trace of a smile glistened in his cold eyes as he told her his condition."I don't want the Swanns' shares. I only want one thing. If you can get it, I'll sign your contract.""What is it?" Catherine asked immediately.Looking tense, Catherine couldn't help but frown. She knew what Branden wanted must be hard to get.Branden asked casually, "Have you heard of Hacker Alliance?"As he spoke, Branden looked remarkably calm. It was as if he was talking about something irrelevant and unimportant.However, Catherine knew immediately that Branden suspected her.Her identity might be a huge secret for others. However, she thou
Audrey saw Catherine stopping in front of an empty mansion. She couldn't help but find it weird and walked up to Catherine to ask her what it was about.The mansion was even larger than that of the Swanns'. It was the most luxurious mansion in the neighborhood. However, after it had been built, it had been empty for all three years.Audrey went up to Catherine and was about to pat her on the shoulder when Catherine opened the door of the mansion.Audrey was in shock. Why did Catherine have a key to this mansion?Before she could figure it out, Catherine had already slipped into the house and returned on a heavy motorcycle.With a beautiful drift, Catherine parked steadily next to Audrey.Audrey couldn't help but exclaim as if her chest was bursting, "Kathy, you're so cool!"Catherine had just parked and almost toppled over at her words.She raised her head and looked at Audrey, who was still looking surprised, with a frown.Was she really her birth sister?Catherine took a bl
After leaving the Principal's Office, Audrey still had her brows furrowed. She was starting to regret what she had decided upon careful consideration.She muttered to Catherine, "No, I have to see the principal again. You can't go to Class 8. Liana is in Class 8. You can't be in the same class with her. With her character, she would surely cause trouble for you."With that, Audrey turned to head back to the Principal's Office, but Catherine grabbed her arm and yanked her back.Audrey looked up at Catherine in confusion.Catherine said lightly, "There's no need!""No need? Are you okay with being in Class 8? But what if Liana bullies you?" Audrey looked at her somewhat worriedly.Bully her?Catherine was confident that no one on earth could bully her. She smiled lightly, looking somewhat scary but casual as she said jokingly, "I'll bully her back then."For some reason, Audrey felt that Catherine was not joking.After all, she had seen Liana fighting with Catherine. Despite bei
It wasn't that nobody wanted to sit next to Bryan. It was that nobody dared to sit next to him.If Liana was the prettiest girl in Loyalty Academy, Bryan was the school bully.Nobody dared to cross Bryan. Besides, the youngest son of the Duncans was known to have a taboo, which was that he didn't like girls.Therefore, Bryan's seat was surrounded by male students.In the past, a girl that didn't know better forced her way into sitting near Bryan.She was kicked out of the classroom that day and was asked to quit school the next day. Since then, no girl dared to even think about sitting near Bryan.Now, the homeroom teacher asked the new student to sit beside Bryan directly. Everyone was worried about the new student. Some students couldn't help but wonder if the teacher hated the new student for making such an arrangement.Since Catherine stepped into the classroom, she had attracted the eyes of many. Now, it could be said that she was the center of attention.However, Catherin
Catherine woke up so suddenly that Bryan didn't have time to react. He hurriedly turned away so she wouldn't notice anything wrong with him.Bryan sat up straight and looked outside the window, pretending nothing had happened.A few seconds passed, and Bryan still didn't hear any movement behind him.This made Bryan furrow his brows slightly, feeling strange.Just as he considered whether he should turn back to look, a voice rang beside him."Bryan, she's gone. Stop pretending."Bryan turned his head back slightly and glanced, only to see that Catherine was indeed gone.His hands clenched slightly under the desk, and a faint trace of anger was on his face. He looked somewhat fiercely at David."When did I care about her? Don't talk nonsense."However, David didn't say who she was. Bryan confirmed David's guesses without being pressed.Nonetheless, Bryan's expression already scared David out of his wits. He didn't dare to retort at all.His boss looked truly scary when he got
Catherine left the alley and was about to pick up her motorcycle.Suddenly, a red BMW Z4 sped toward her and parked next to her.Catherine knew the car was here for her, so she turned to glance at it.Then, the car parked steadily next to her, revealing Audrey's smiley face."Kathy, are you very surprised to see me?"Surprised?That was impossible. However, instead of being surprised, Catherine was shocked!Catherine lowered her eyes and looked calmly at Audrey. Her cold face was emotionless.Despite how cold Catherine was all the time, Audrey didn't seem to mind at all and was as enthusiastic as she could be.She beckoned at Catherine excitedly. "Kathy, since it's your first day here, I guessed you probably have no one to have lunch with. I also studied here, and I know a great restaurant with super delicious food nearby. I came specially to take you there. Come on."Catherine was planning to skip lessons in the afternoon, as school was somewhat boring.However, by showing
