Elvis's arrogance contrasted with Catherine's calm demeanor.The classmates from the EIE class stood behind her in support, unwilling to show weakness.Amelia stepped out and pointed at Elvis, cursing, "Stop hopping around like a sissy. Tell me, what will you do if you lose?"Elvis, knowing that the EIE class had gotten provoked, put on a triumphant smile."You can't scare me, and you can't scare the medical class! Let me tell you, in this competition, you have no chance of winning. If you miraculously win, I'll agree to whatever conditions you set."Catherine took a step forward, standing in front of Elvis with her arms crossed, exuding dominance."If I lose, I'll drop out. And if you lose..."Before Catherine could finish speaking, Elvis excitedly interrupted, "If we lose, then what?""Humph!" Catherine chuckled lightly and stated the punishment she wanted. "You have to live stream eating shit. Do you dare?""Holy crap!" The surrounding students were stunned. They didn't exp
The young instructor felt a bit embarrassed as everyone stared at him. He scratched the back of his head and smiled shyly."10 rings, 10 points!"Catherine hit a perfect ten with her first shot, which was unbelievable! She was amazing!They had initially thought the first shot was luck, but then, as the results of the second and third shots were announced, no one dared to say that Catherine was just lucky. Throughout the competition, Catherine never missed the 10-ring.Everyone was astonished, except for Dylan, who knew that even if Catherine closed her eyes, she could easily hit the center of the 10-ring.The shooting competition ended, and Catherine easily took first place. Seeing this, the students from the EIE class all rushed forward under the lead of Amelia.Originally, they wanted to give Catherine a hug to celebrate. But when they got close to her, one glance from her made them silently shrink back in fear.There was no way to describe the powerful aura emanating from Ca
Intense training made all the freshmen suffer every day.Every night, after Amelia returned to the dormitory and took a shower, she would have a foot bath. According to her, if she didn't have a foot bath at night, she wouldn't even be able to walk the next day.Seeing Catherine sitting in a chair and playing games with her feet propped up, Amelia became even more curious."Catherine, you used more physical strength today than any of us. But why don't you feel tired at all?" she asked. She had never seen Catherine having a foot bath or doing anything like that to relax her muscles. Every time Catherine finished washing up, she would immediately start playing games without any signs of fatigue.After her roommates finished washing up, Catherine would turn off her phone immediately and rest with everyone else. Just as Catherine finished a game, she heard Amelia talking to her and turned her head to look at Amelia.Amelia was having a foot bath, her face twisted in pain, and she ke
Catherine had just hung up the phone when another call came in. Without even looking at the caller ID, she knew who it was.Branden knew that she was living in a dormitory now. He would call her every day at nine o'clock to avoid disturbing her, as she had to turn off the lights and go to sleep by ten.Catherine answered the call and held the phone to her ear. Branden's deep and attractive voice came from the receiver."I heard you participated in a competition today and even won a prize?"Even though Branden wasn't present, he knew everything related to her at school.Facing his knowingly asked question, Catherine didn't hesitate to expose him."Don't you know better than me?""Haha." Branden chuckled softly, his voice deep and husky."Are you angry? If you don't like it, I won't inquire about your affairs anymore."His cautious tone carried a sense of carefulness and probing. No one would believe that the esteemed president of the Duncan Corporation, the chief of Red Star, w
The day of the closing ceremony of the physical training arrived in the blink of an eye. All the freshmen were dressed in brand-new training uniforms, marching in perfect unison in front of the flag-draped podium.With the ceremony coming to an end, the freshmen's physical training journey also concluded. Immersed in the exhaustion brought by the training, the only thought on the mind of all the freshmen was for the training to end quickly. But now that it was truly about to end, they started to feel reluctant.Having spent half a month together, the thought of the instructors leaving weighed heavily on the freshmen's hearts. Amelia took out her Polaroid camera and raised her arm, shouting, "Let's take a group photo with the instructors!"The usually serious instructors appeared quite outgoing at this moment, satisfying various requests from the freshmen. Several girls expressed their desire to take individual photos with the instructors, and Amelia offered to help take the pictur
Catherine had just arrived at the school gate when she spotted a familiar figure waiting at the entrance.Branden knew she didn't want to attract too much attention at school, so every time he came to see her, he would purposely park his car outside Styre University or on a distant street and then walk in to find her.It was midsummer, and the scorching sun was shining on the earth.Branden stood under the shade of the trees at the school gate, his white shirt perfectly wrapping his figure, revealing his exceptional build. He wore a simple pair of black trousers, and the tailored cut made his already long legs appear even straighter, emitting a hint of restraint.From a distance, he looked like the campus heartthrob, looking handsome and charming. Passing girls couldn't help but glance at him, not willing to take their eyes off him.Branden, however, remained indifferent, his face devoid of any warmth.Then, he saw that familiar graceful figure appear, and suddenly, the ice in hi
Late at night, outside Loxton, Zobber and Withal parked a discreet black SUV in a pile of grass in front of a factory. The factory had been abandoned for many years, and the grass had grown taller than a person, making it quite hidden. However, very few people came here, so suddenly appearing in the workshop would definitely attract attention. Withal decided to leave the car where it was and sneak in while it was dark. When he got out of the car, however, Zobber grabbed him."I'll go. You keep watch!""Are you sure?" Withal asked.Zobber nodded without hesitation, not only because she wanted to impress the leader but also because she understood that this task suited her better. She was petite, agile, and less likely to be detected, although her combat skills were not as good as Withal's.Loxton was not their territory, so it wasn't suitable to cause a scene. It was better to use strategy. Withal didn't say anything more when he saw her determination, but he gave her a final rem
When Catherine spoke, Branden had already gotten up and stood behind her.In the moonlight streaming through the window, his perfect abs were clearly visible."Aren't you going out?" His deep voice brought Catherine's wandering thoughts back.As Catherine snapped back to reality, Branden had already put on a white shirt. While she was in a daze, he casually picked up her jacket and helped her put it on.But this jacket was a bit... thick. It was summer now, but he had brought her a long-sleeved jacket.Noticing Catherine's puzzled expression, Branden explained earnestly, "It gets chilly at night. It's better to wear more."This wasn't the first time Branden had done something like this. Indeed, nights were much colder than the daytime, so Catherine went along with him. The main reason was that she felt it would be too troublesome to take off her clothes again.The two of them went downstairs together. Branden didn't notify anyone. He just took the car keys and brought Catherine
In the end, Branden couldn't stand it anymore. He took the initiative to snatch Catherine back, only then did the scene come under control.Now, no one dared to continue touching Catherine's belly.Once he snatched Catherine back, he held her tightly in his arms and prevented anyone from touching her. He thought in his mind, "Since these people like this brat so much, I'll just give the brat to them when Catherine gives birth. Saves one more person from sharing my wife with me."Triston smiled and watched the crowd as the birthday party began exactly as it should.The big screen began to show all the images of Audrey from her debut until now that were outstanding or worthy of recording. Some of the images weren't even in Audrey's possession, but Triston had found them and made a video of them.As the images flashed by, Audrey's tears couldn't help but fall from her face. She cried not only because she remembered the hardships she had endured in showbiz for many years, but also bec
Since Triston brought Audrey to meet his family, he had worked non-stop to put their marriage on the agenda.Audrey was a popular actress, and to not affect her career, Triston chose to propose in a low-key manner.Triston arranged a party on Audrey's birthday and invited many of Audrey's friends.Audrey originally thought Triston was too high-profile, but Triston insisted. "I didn't participate in so many of your past birthdays. I finally have a chance to participate this time."He persuaded Audrey repeatedly. Audrey couldn't resist him and could only agree to let him arrange the party.Luckily, he only invited Audrey's close friends and did not send out invitations widely, so she could take this opportunity to have a gathering of friends.Audrey was surprised to see Catherine when she arrived.Catherine was now eight months pregnant. Normally, she would be rejected by Branden if she wanted to visit Catherine.Branden was now very careful with Catherine every day, and Audrey w
Sure enough, only after Audrey said those words, Willa's face completely darkened.Seeing that Willa was about to explode, suddenly...Triston applauded happily, which instantly attracted the crowd's attention.Triston calmly met everyone's gaze and looked at Audrey gently. "Good. You're worthy of being the woman I love. I'm most annoyed with those women who stay at home day in and day out and like to gossip when they have nothing else to do. You have your own career and I'm very supportive of that."Triston said this with a proud look on his face and raised his eyebrows at Audrey, full of smugness.Willa's face instantly turned gloomy.Her son had demeaned her by calling her a gossipy woman just to please another woman, and it made her furious.Egbert kind of realized that his son was totally in love with Audrey. He thought it was good because Triston used to be a playboy and was always surrounded by messy women. At that time, he was really worried that Triston would marry an u
Although Audrey was born into a wealthy family, Triston's mother, Willa Lambert, had always been prejudiced against showbiz and therefore did not approve of Triston's pursuit of Audrey.In Willa's opinion, female celebrities in the showbiz industry had always appeared in public, which was not like the demeanor of a lady from a wealthy family.It was only after learning that Audrey and Triston might be together that she eagerly introduced Triston to girls in the first place. She didn't realize that after all this time, her son still hadn't given up on Audrey, and this was the first time she'd seen her son so attached to a girl.If it weren't for that, she wouldn't agree to appear at today's dinner party now.Triston led Audrey into the door, and everyone from the Lamberts had already arrived.The scene of everyone sitting in the private room made Audrey feel a bit guilty. She looked guiltily at the crowd and whispered, "I'm sorry. I'm late."Triston's father, Egbert Lambert, had a
Audrey never expected to be so suddenly arranged to meet Triston's family.She couldn't react when Triston talked to her about it. Looking at Triston with disbelief in her eyes, she said, "Pardon me?"Triston's handsome face carried a gentle smile. "I've inquired with Kim. You don't have any work arrangements since this afternoon, and you can also take a day off tomorrow. It's just right for us to have dinner together in the evening."Audrey frowned and asked inwardly, "Is that what I care about?"What she cared about was who Triston had just said she would have dinner with tonight. "Why are you suddenly asking your family to have dinner with me?"The Swanns and the Lamberts were both in Casier and they were also considered to be friends. For Triston's family, although Audrey was not familiar with them, she had seen them at major parties.But in the past, they used to meet as ordinary friends.Now that she and Triston were in a relationship, his sudden proposal to take her to di
Audrey hesitated for a moment but still answered the phone with a nervous heart.She believed that Catherine definitely had a way to get her to answer the phone, but things would be troublesome if she made Catherine take her actions.She put her phone to her ear and inquired in a low voice, "Morning, Kathy. What's the matter?"Catherine's voice remained as cold as ever, without any emotion. "Tell me, what is it that you haven't told me?"Audrey had already figured out a strategy to deal with it and how to excuse herself, but as soon as she answered the phone, Catherine asked her so directly, which made her suddenly unable to react.Audrey had no choice but to tell Catherine the truth.After listening to her trembling narration, Catherine only asked coldly, "Are you sure you want him to be your boyfriend?"Audrey was a bit hesitant. Everyone blessed her and Triston after they found out they were together again, but Catherine was the only one who asked her to calm down and think i
Faced with Triston's questioning, Ronin looked arrogant. "Catherine and Audrey are sisters, so Audrey is my sister. You can bully anyone, but you can't bully her. Or else, we can't even be friends."Ronin's words sounded childish, but there was seriousness inside his eyes when he said those words. He grew up with Catherine and regarded Catherine as his most important family member. To him, Catherine's sister was his sister.After listening to Ronin's words, Triston faintly laughed out. "I see."Ronin thought that Triston didn't take his words to heart, and immediately felt a burning anger. "What do you mean? You don't understand my warning, do you?""Easy!" Triston gestured for him to calm down, then said calmly, "Even death row inmates have a chance to explain, right? You should at least hear me out.""Hmph!" Ronin snorted disdainfully. He secretly thought in his heart, "If Triston says any more asshole words, I'll definitely not show him any respect."Triston put away that cyni
They had an appointment at a recreational manor, a new property Zobber had just bought. Zobber had invited them to come along for the experience.Since Catherine's pregnancy, the entire Hacker Alliance had had much leisure time. Even though there was less to do, they had earned no less money and were basically in a dominant position.Zobber enjoyed the current situation too much becasue there was still money to be made easily. They might only have one business per year, but the profit from this business was already enough for them to spend for a year.After wandering around with her friends, Zobber excitedly looked at everyone. "How about this place? It's not bad, right? I bought it at a high price!"This was Casier, and Triston was aware of any changes in the real estate industry.He had indeed received the news when Zobber auctioned off the manor, and he also knew that Zobber had given an above-market price to take the land. But he knew that Zobber had plenty of money. It was fi
Since that dinner, Audrey had been in a special kind of relationship with Triston.Although they didn't make it clear, Triston could feel that Audrey had slowly accepted him.The number of times they met increased, and most of Audrey's work this year was in Casier.Whenever Triston had free time, he would stay alongside Audrey.Whether on set or during recording sessions, one could always catch a glimpse of Triston.Everyone kind of knew deep down that Triston was the man behind Audrey.But nobody ever exposed this whole thing, mainly because of Triston's identity.Neither he nor Audrey wanted too much attention paid to their relationship right now. If he didn't spill the beans, who else would dare to report on it?Besides, the reason Audrey and Triston's dating didn't cause much jealousy was they were a good match.Among the Four Noble Families in Casier, the Lamberts and the Swanns each held a seat, and the Swanns' power was not weaker than the Lamberts.Plus, now that Cath
