Franklin was incredibly astonished to hear about Catherine's background.He frowned looking at Baron as he asked quizzically, "Were you mistaken?""I heard she is just a young woman and barely a grown-up. How could she be capable of this?"Baron shook his head firmly. "Mr. Facer, regarding this, I'm absolutely sure. Even though the commander's face was covered, I recognized those eyes. We worked together for 7 days. The commander has an unusually powerful aura, so I can still remember it!"Franklin did not suspect Baron's background at all. After all, his father had picked the man, so he trusted Baron.Also, Baron had quite a reputation in the mercenary trade, and his words could be trusted. "Then, do you know more about her background?"The Swanns' granddaughter had become the highest authority in a mercenary team. Even though neither things had anything to do with each other on the surface, they were the same thing. This was genuinely mind-boggling. "I'm not sure either, bu
Seeing Catherine's poor attitude, Liana nearly wanted to explode in anger. "How could you talk like that?"Catherine did not answer Liana. She did not want to talk to her at all.However, Liana did not want to let her go easy. She looked down at Catherine cockily. "Catherine, what's the point, really? You found out why the teacher asked to see us here, so you tagged along desperately. Who got you in? Was it Bryan or Ronin, huh?"Or did you bribe the homeroom teacher for an opportunity like this?"As for Catherine and the homeroom teacher's relationship, Liana had never liked it to begin with. In her opinion, the homeroom teacher was taking sides with Catherine. The teacher must have done this because of Catherine's bribes!The more Liana thought about it, the angrier she felt. She could not help complaining. She could not let Catherine get her hands on such an opportunity"Catherine, do you think just because you get to talk to those representatives for advanced college p
No one expected that Styre University would come to Loyalty Academy to recruit students this time. This was an unprecedented thing.Liana, who had just been bent on attending the University of Penny, was now shaken.Being selected by Styre University would naturally be much better than attending the University of Penny.After all, her grades were in the top three. If she didn't have a chance in this group of people, the others would have even less.Liana was about to come forward with her resume. Not only her, but all the students present had such thoughts. Everyone wanted to be the lucky one.The gray-haired professor sat on the chair with his back straight and his face solemn as he scanned the crowd.After a while, the old professor suddenly spoke."Is there a student named Catherine Swann among you!"Hearing this, the crowd spontaneously made way to reveal Catherine, who was sitting at the very end.Catherine was still playing games with her phone. She had no interest in ad
The gazes of the people present were all focused on Marshall. No one knew what the reason was that this authoritative international professor was so amazed. After all, he was always composed.Marshall repeatedly checked what Catherine had written and then looked up at Catherine with a face full of amazement."Catherine, do you know the programming of chips?"Ronin snorted at the side. Catherine was more than knowing. She was considered the top in this industry.If it weren't for Catherine's low profile, everyone present should have called her teacher respectfully.Faced with Marshall's inquiry, Catherine nodded casually. "I know a little."But how could Marshall believe that?The students in his team who had been with him for several years might not have this understanding. Marshall felt more and more that he had come to the right place.There were provincial top scorers every year, but there were not many with full marks.He originally came with this thought, but he didn't ex
After the end of the enrollment, Ronin insisted that they must have dinner together tonight, saying that it had been quite a while since Catherine had gathered with them.Thinking that it had been almost a month since they last saw each other, Catherine agreed.The group had just walked out of the classroom when they heard urgent footsteps coming from behind."Hey, you! Stop right there!"The familiar voice made everyone furrow their brows. There was no need to guess who it was. Ronin impatiently exclaimed, "Catherine, let's go. No need to pay any attention to this crazy woman!"It seemed like Liana saw through Ronin's thoughts. She hastened her steps and arrived in front of the group, directly blocking Catherine.Catherine stopped in her tracks and gave Liana a cold stare.Seeing Catherine's face, Liana was pissed off.In her eyes, she felt Catherine was looking down on her with a condescending attitude.Liana gritted her teeth, glaring at Catherine with eyes full of hatred
Someone reported Branden's situation to Triston.Triston turned around and saw Branden walking toward him.When the big shot appeared, people on both sides quickly moved aside to make way.Branden stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, his gaze firmly fixed on the stage below.Without even looking at the face, he knew that it was his woman.Plus, he even saw that his silly nephew occupied the neighboring booth.As the woman made a wild leap, her clothes flew up, exposing her slender and pristine waist and prompting screams from the audience under the lights.Branden's face instantly darkened with eyes as cold as an icy pond.Everyone around him felt the atmosphere in the private room suddenly turn icy, and nobody knew what happened.They were too scared to speak and even dared not look at the big shot, only able to turn toward Triston on the side, asking about the situation.Triston was also pretty confused at first but eventually figured it out."Over the years
Early in the morning, Catherine reluctantly woke up in a haze of smoke, feeling groggy and tired.As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the man beside her, shirtless and looking like a noble deity from mythology.On the handsome and delicate face of the man, there lay a cigarette between his thin lips. His slightly raised brow showed a hint of sadness.This was the first time Catherine had seen Branden smoke in front of her.She knew Branden smoked, but in her memory, he had never smoked in front of her, not even letting her catch a whiff of the smell.Last night, Branden persistently lingered with her in sex and finally released her with reluctance until dawn.She was too tired to say anything, so she just closed her eyes and turned around to fall into a deep sleep.When he noticed the movement beside him, Branden's eyes flashed with a panic. His first response was to put out the cigarette in his hand.Having no time to find an ashtray, he snuffed out the cigarette butt with
Catherine was still playing a game online with Ronin and a few others when she got the news.She threw down the gamepad and rushed to the hospital as soon as possible.Outside the operating room, Audrey, Liana, and Rachael had already arrived. They all stood at the door of the operating room with a solemn expression.Catherine walked from the intersection toward the depths of the corridor. Her pace was slow. She looked so calm that one could not tell what mood she was in.Her footsteps echoed, and everyone turned around.Seeing Catherine appear, Rachael's eyes were immediately filled with anger.She sprinted forward and rushed toward Catherine.Audrey's movements were faster. She stepped in front of Catherine quickly, separating Catherine and Rachael.Seeing Audrey in front of Catherine, Rachael stopped in her tracks.She looked at Audrey with a fierce look in her eyes and snarled, "You're still defending Catherine. If it weren't for her, how could your Dad be lying inside the
