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
Catherine contacted Ronin after she left the hospital. They got together again for dinner.However, this time, Catherine did not choose to have a barbecue.Influenced by Branden, she had been enjoying some lighter-flavored dishes lately. They chose light dishes today.Ronin shaved the bones of the chicken legs and placed them on Catherine's plate. Bryan, who was sitting next to him, did not want to be outdone. He poured a cup of iced cola and handed it to Catherine.But they all tacitly agreed not to mention the matter of the Swanns the whole time. They all knew that Catherine did not like to hear about these things, so no one dared to mention it.Seeing that Catherine had a good appetite today, Ronin served her some soup. He took the opportunity to ask, "Catherine, if we go to Loxton to study, won't you and Mr. Duncan be separated?"Catherine picked up the soup and took a sip. After that, she put the soup down slowly before responding to Ronin lazily."That's not true. The Dunc
Rachael was furious the moment the demand note of her husband's medical bill was thrown in her face.She did not expect that there would be a day in her lifetime when she was called for debt.Originally, she had planned to hire two full-time caregivers to watch over her husband 24 hours a day. This way, both she and her daughter could rest without being bothered.However, she never expected to receive a demand note from the nurse after she arrived at the hospital.Staring at the amount owed, Rachael's brow furrowed."Are you guys mistaken? How could we possibly be in arrears?"The nurse was with a cold face and a somewhat aloof attitude.She said to Rachael, "The demand note is clearly stated. Your pre-paid fees were used up yesterday. Please pay the fees as soon as possible so as not to delay the treatment!"After saying that, the nurse left the ward without looking back.Rachael rubbed the demand note in her hand into a ball angrily and cursed in a low voice, "Damn it. Don't
When Catherine received a message from Kim, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.Her sister was actually making progress.Branden happened to witness this scene when he came out.Seeing her rare smile, he asked, "What's making you so happy?"Catherine raised her phone and waved it at him. "Rachael tried to borrow money from Audrey and got rejected."Understanding her meaning, Branden smirked."Under your guidance, she is showing good judgment."Catherine gave him a disdainful glance.Afterward, she called the hospital.Korbin could use any medication he needed.However, he must pay for the non-essential expenses.It wasn't that Catherine placed great importance on this matter. She considered it helping Audrey.Once Catherine was done, Branden sat beside her and reached out to lift her up."I heard you're starting college early this year. Shall I take you to Loxton next month?"The meteorological department announced that this year's peak temperatures would arrive ea
