After she finished the call with Branden, Catherine's nap came to an end.After taking the cushion from Seven's hand and placing it on the nearby chair, she ordered, "Go back and recharge!"Seven nodded its silly big head toward Catherine."Thank you, Boss. I will now go back and have my meal!"Catherine stared at the silly backside of Seven and got lost in thought inexplicably."What was I thinking? Why did I code such a silly program?" thought she.She stood up and stretched lazily when the doorbell echoed through the room suddenly.She opened the door with her phone. Then, an older man with gray hair walked in from outside the fence and came before her.The older man respectfully looked at Catherine with a genial smile and softly spoke. "Mrs. Swann, it's time to eat!"Catherine nodded and walked into the room.The older man carried a food box as he followed behind Catherine.His name was Randolph Dunn. He was a specialist in wheat technology research and was commonly addr
After much hesitation, Randolph finally decided to ask Catherine."Mrs. Swann, why all of a sudden you gotta go study? Is high school, like, a blast or something?"Catherine casually replied, "I haven't attended it before. Just want to give it a try!""I see." Randolph nodded in understanding."Trying new things in life could be a good experience. Upon consideration, I have never attended high school. Perhaps it is worth finding some time to go back and experience the joy of Mrs. Swann!" said he inwardly.Catherine's phone that was placed aside rang again. She glanced in the direction of it.Randolph immediately understood and walked over, holding the packed lunch box and respectfully bidding farewell to Catherine."Mrs. Swann. I can see that you're busy. I'll take my leave now!"After Randolph left, Catherine reached out to answer the phone.Branden's deep and gentle voice could be heard on the other end of the phone. "What are you doing?""Just finished eating!" Catherine r
Cory brought Carlo to a secluded rural area in the western outskirts of Oceanvile.Looking at the vast expanse of wheat fields, Carlo couldn't help but exclaim, "Aaron, who would have thought that the globally renowned wheat research facility would be located on the remote outskirts of Oceanvile if it weren't for the higher official's guidance?""Call me Sir!" Cory gave Carlo a disdainful glance, his face full of disgust.They had grown up together since childhood, and he was about the same age as Carlo.He was a few months younger than Carlo and was selected to join the Duncans earlier than Carlo, so he was named Cory and enjoyed more respect.If it weren't for the summoning of Branden, he wouldn't be willing to meet Carlo in Oceanvile.Carlo wanted to say a few words but was interrupted by Cory coldly."Okay, let's find the person first and complete the task immediately!"He didn't want to continue to endure the endless ramblings of Carlo. If given the choice, he would rather
If it weren't for Carlo knowing Cory well enough to know that Cory wouldn't cause trouble recklessly, he would have intervened just now.Even if Cory had obtained specific intelligence and was aware that spies were coming, their time was limited, and they couldn't stay behind to protect the research personnel here.Cory coldly spoke up. "Imbecile! Dr. Dunn just lied!""Did Dr. Dunn lie? What does that mean? What is he hiding from us?" asked Carlo.Cory shook his head and said, "Let's wait for two days and see. Don't rush!"As a matter of fact, Cory was not aware of what Dr. Dunn had been keeping hidden from them.He merely had a vague feeling that this matter was not simple or that there was something they wanted inside this experimental base.No matter whether his judgment was accurate or not, he would like to stay and examine carefully.Hearing Cory's words, Carlo decided it was best to remain silent and stay here for the time being.After separating from the two, Randolph w
Catherine didn't bother with the two of them and just let Randolph kick them out.After Cory and Carlo left, Randolph quickly apologized to Catherine, "Mrs. Swann, it's all my fault. I didn't manage them well!"Catherine was indifferent to the matter and didn't think it was Randolph's fault. "It's alright. Give me the research report. I will let you know once I have studied it thoroughly.""Dr. Dunn, keep an eye on the two guys when you have some free time."Randolph didn't dare hesitate even a little at Catherine's order."Rest assured, Mrs. Swann!"After seeing off Randolph, Catherine gave a call to Withal.Withal called her just now, but she did not answer it."Withal, what's the matter?""Catherine, I found out that Red Star is connected to 417 Laboratory, and a group of members from Red Star went to 417 Laboratory recently," replied Withal."417 Laboratory?" thought Catherine.She furrowed her brows slightly. She was well aware that this laboratory was as renowned as Ar
Cory and Carlo guarded the outer perimeter of the courtyard in the still of the night.With the previous experience, they did not dare to get too close this time.Only after the sky darkened and even the streetlights were turned off did they dare to approach the small courtyard cautiously.Cory could confirm that something was off with this courtyard. Therefore, no matter the cost, he must enter the courtyard today and investigate the situation inside before making further decisions.He had already arranged for some professionals in the Duncans to study and find a way to crack the lock on the fence.They were certain to win today.Seeing Cory not move for a long time, Carlo couldn't help but whisper, "What's going on? It's been so long. Didn't you say you already cracked it?"Just after Carlo finished speaking, Cory reached out and pushed the door. The door was opened smoothly."Hey, didn't you already open it? Don't be such a drag!"As Carlo strolled in grandly, Cory was at a
After a thorough explanation by Paxton, both Cory and Carlo had a grasp of the situation.One of them was in Oceanvile, while the other was abroad. Neither of them had stayed by Branden's side.They only heard that their boss was to be betrothed to Miss Catherine, who had returned suddenly to the Swanns. However, they did not have any knowledge about who Miss Catherine was.It was rumored that their boss had an extreme fondness for Miss Catherine and even made many changes for her, which shocked many people.It was unexpected that Miss Catherine of the Swanns appeared suddenly in the courtyard of the experimental base.It was a conflict that arose between people on their own side. Tonight, they disrupted their boss' night and disturbed the young miss beside their boss.Just punishing them for doing handstands could be considered lenient.With a gossipy look, Carlo leaned in to please Paxton. "Paxton, why did you suddenly come here? Isn't Miss Swann the second young lady of the w
Besides Paxton, Cory and Carlo had yet to witness the martial prowess of Catherine.It would be fine if they didn't know Catherine's identity. But now they knew she was the future mistress of the Duncans. Besides, she was a woman."As two men, how could we fight against her?" thought Carlo and Cory.They could only follow behind Paxton to scrape the barrel while planning on throwing Paxton under the bus for this.To their surprise, Paxton, who charged forward first, got taken down by Catherine in just three moves.Paxton was shocked. Carlo and Cory were even more shocked.Paxton was surprised to find himself so vulnerable in front of Catherine, while Carlo and Cory were completely stunned by Catherine's violence.The kick from Catherine was so strong that it sent Paxton flying.Catherine did not continue with the next round of attack. She lazily stood in place, raising her eyebrows and looking frivolously at Paxton."I am giving you all one more chance. If you don't want to di
