The recent performance of the Styre Team was impressive and showcased the team's true strength to everyone.The Bide Cup this year had been particularly exciting due to the emergence of the dark horse Styre Team, which had brought the competition to a climax.The gambling outside the stadium was even more intense as Catherine's comeback led the Styre Team to victory. Many of those who bet against Styre Team ended up losing everything.Looking at the constantly rising numbers in front of the computer, Zobber couldn't stop smiling. "Catherine, look, we've struck gold this time!"Due to too many people losing money on betting against Styre Team, the peripheral market was not open for trading in the later stage.How could Zobber miss such a good money-making opportunity? She directly invested 100 million dollars to build a new market. Regardless of how much they bet Styre Team would lose, she would still receive the payment.Those crazy gamblers who couldn't find a place to bet again
After the first round of power struggles by the Johnville Team, no other team dared to engage in reckless behavior.Losing the game was a small matter. Tarnishing the reputation of the entire school was the real issue.No one knew if other teams would have hidden talents like the Styre Team, secretly harboring cheat-type players like Catherine.Without any shenanigans, the Styre Team had also drawn a strong opponent and was prepared to begin the second round of the competition.Marshall knew that Catherine was extremely talented, but they could not rely solely on her to participate in the competition.Last time, it was because the Johnville Team played tricks, and this time, since they drew a team of equal strength, they must show their true level and not just rely on Catherine.Marshall had discussed this with Catherine and advised her not to rush to take action but instead wait until team members were truly incapable before stepping in to turn the tide.Catherine understood Ma
Zobber had a secret hidden within her; she had just boarded the ship when she received a piece of news involving classified information, something she hadn't mentioned to anyone. She was waiting for the right moment to brief Catherine in private. Little did Zobber expect that Catherine knew her so well that she almost didn't need to say anything. Catherine already knew Zobber had something to share."Catherine, I don't think Branden is on this trip for business," Zobber said. Hearing this, Catherine raised an eyebrow. Zobber knew she had piqued Catherine's interest. The look Catherine gave almost made Zobber feel a shiver run down her spine. "Why does the conflict between these two big shots have to involve me?" Zobber wondered. "Living between these two big shots was pure torture!"Zobber then reported, "Catherine, the Duncan Corporation placed an order with the Hacker Alliance, specifying that they want you to handle it. After being refused, they placed an order with Wantel, re
The yacht was slowly moving forward in the azure sea, following the waves of the current.Withal and Ronin were playing a game on their cellphones when Withal suddenly noticed something ahead. He immediately put his phone away.Seeing that something was wrong with Withal's expression, Ronin looked in the direction Withal was staring at.Then, Ronin saw a speedboat racing in the sea not far ahead. He could tell at a glance that it was moving toward their yacht. From a distance, however, he couldn't see the people on the speedboat clearly.Ronin noticed that Withal's chilling aura was intensifying, so he also put down his phone and stood up.When the speedboat got close, everyone except Catherine, who was resting in the cabin, stood up."We're here, Boss!" said Paxton as he stood up from the driver's seat and prepared to connect to the opposite yacht.It turned out to be Branden who had arrived.Withal pursed his lips and sat back. He had thought it was someone looking for troubl
Paddy couldn't stand hearing this. Now, everyone was praising Catherine's talent and saying that her success had elevated the entire Styre University in the academic field. He had no idea how Catherine managed to win against the Johnville Team. Speaking of which, he thought the Johnville Team was nothing but a bunch of losers. They always boasted about themselves, but when it came to a major competition, they actually lost to a team like Catherine's. It was simply embarrassing.Hearing some of his teammates whispering nearby, Paddy scoffed in disdain. "Catherine has a close relationship with the chairman of the competition as well."Hearing this, a junior student nearby couldn't help but sigh. "I really envy Catherine. She's so young, yet she knows such influential people. Mr. Goodman was someone I could only see on TV and in magazines. I never thought Catherine would know him.""Exactly, I'm both envious and jealous!" someone chimed in.Paddy's original intention was to make peopl
With their night vision goggles, the two men in black could see clearly in the pitch-black environment. Their boss had warned them that the woman not only had good combat skills but was also very clever, so they had to be extra cautious. Quietly, they pried open the door of the restroom. In the pitch-black interior, their target lay motionless next to the toilet.One of the men gestured for his companion to drag Catherine, who had been rendered unconscious by drugs, out of the restroom. However, as his companion bent down to pull her up, he suddenly froze in place. "Alpha, what's going on? Pull her up!" The man found it strange and called out several times, but his companion remained unresponsive. In frustration, he reached out to pull his companion, trying to figure out if he had suddenly gone deaf or something unusual had occurred. To his surprise, when he gently pushed his companion, the latter suddenly collapsed. The unexpected turn of events shocked the man. He didn't have ti
Fergus immediately rushed to the hospital when he received the message. He had conducted extensive research on neurotoxins, but upon examining the virus sample extracted from Catherine's body, he said he had never seen this type of virus before. "Even a slight change in any value can affect the toxin. To wake Catherine up and neutralize the poison inside her, it is crucial to study its structure and components, and then we can find a way to counteract it," he explained."How long will that take?" Marshall appeared impatient, extremely concerned about Catherine's safety.Fergus pondered for a moment before providing an answer. "Three days, at least!""Three days!" Marshall furrowed his brow, his eyes reflecting worry.Eamon, who had rushed to the hospital with Marshall, muttered, "What about tomorrow's match? Catherine's going to miss it." To Eamon, the Bide Cup was a dream for many, and it would be regrettable if Catherine couldn't participate due to this unexpected situation."Al
The second round of the competition officially began, and only three teams could emerge victorious in this round. The winning teams would secure a spot in the final round, competing for the ultimate victory against the previous champions.Throughout the competition, the Styre Team was undoubtedly the most popular and prominent. Although they only sent two teams to compete, both advanced to the second round, showcasing unquestionable strength.As the competition was about to commence, members of the Styre Team were making their final preparations in the backstage lounge. Eamon looked towards the entrance of the lounge, asking, "Professor Hartley, Catherine can't come, right?""Alas!" Marshall sighed deeply. "She's still in the hospital. From now on, you all need to compete seriously. Don't bring shame to her."Eamon's eyes showed some disappointment. Catherine had always worked miracles for them. He thought she would do the same this time, but the miracle did not happen.Due to F
