Although the university didn't officially release the announcement about expelling Catherine, someone put it on the internet and caused a great clamor. Netizens made various conjectures about what she did that got her expelled.

One user left a comment, saying, [Isn't she a badass? I heard Styre fancies her a lot. How come she got expelled?]

Another user replied, reading, [The truth is she lived off Styre while secretly selling data to others. She deserves it.]

This comment caused a lot of attention.

People entered her homepage and found she was also from Styre University, like Catherine. And then, many Styre students liked her comment as if verifying her words. Everyone believed what she said.

Soon, Catherine became a target. Some even commented on Audrey's account, cursing Catherine.

    The Duncan Corporation's big day arrived. Branden had sent out invites well in advance, including to notable figures like Marshall, Thomas, and Aaron.Though Karl and Thomas were meant to depart together, their ongoing rivalry meant Thomas opted to wait for Scott, instead.Karl, respecting their wishes, left for the venue alone.As Karl left, the observers in the shadows quickly relayed the change to their superiors. "Change of plans. Mr. Theo is alone, and Mr. Duncan is not with him. Shall we proceed?"After a brief pause, the command was clear. "Proceed. Target Thomas.""Got it!" came the immediate response.*****Half an hour later, Thomas and Scott finally left, bickering playfully."Dressed to the nines for what? It's not even your big day," Thomas chided."Well, you wouldn't go with Karl, and now you're giving me grief for being slow. I have to look sharp. I'm representing our side at my future brother-in-law's event." Scott shot back.Their banter continued until they

    Catherine arrived at the agreed location, an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Loxton.She scoffed internally at the cliché setting. 'Really? An abandoned factory? Feels like someone's playing too much into the movie tropes.'"Got guts, coming alone," a mechanical voice echoed, gender indiscernible.Catherine looked up, her gaze sharp and intimidating. "I've got the guts to come alone. Do you have the guts to show yourself?"The mysterious person, watching her every move from behind a computer screen, aimed to negotiate. "No need to provoke me, Catherine. Just hand over the list, and I'll let your person go."'If I can secure that list, I'd be in the boss's good graces. Then taking down Black Robe would be a piece of cake,' the captor thought.Catherine remained silent, her chilling stare felt through the monitor, putting the captor on edge."Want the ledger? Show me the hostage first," Catherine demanded coldly, uninterested in playing games.The captor attempted a threat,

    "You've seen them. Now, what about my end of the deal?" the captor urged, their worry about Catherine's potential backup increasing the tension.But Catherine didn't budge or utter a word, her silence and powerful aura ensuring no one dared to lay a finger on Thomas and Sccot under her watchful eyes.Time ticked away, and with Catherine still making no move, the captor, driven by impatience, activated the timers on Thomas and Scott's chests."You have five minutes, Catherine. Give me the list, and I'll let them go," the captor declared with a smug look, watching Catherine intently.But Thomas and Scott, far from pleading, seemed prepared to face death rather than compromise Catherine's safety.In a dramatic turn, Thomas feigned a seizure, spitting blood, causing immediate chaos among the guards who quickly removed his gag, desperate not to let him die before the list was secured.Once free to speak, Scott pleaded with urgency, "Release my grandfather! He has a heart condition. Yo

    The chaos enveloped the entire venue, leaving everyone clueless about the unfolding events.Onstage, amidst the confusion, Paxton noticed Branden was out cold and didn't waste a moment to call for medical help. "Let's get him to the hospital, now," he ordered.Meanwhile, the Duncan Corporation's PR team swiftly took over the situation, ensuring order amidst the chaos.Zobber, in her haste to escape, kept dialing Black Robe, anxiety lacing her voice. "Did it work? Is Branden dead?"Black Robe responded at a leisurely pace, "Seems like you're quite concerned about whether Branden lives or dies.""Isn't that obvious?" Zobber snapped back, her patience worn thin. "I'm the one who did it, in front of everyone. If Branden survives, what is left for me?" "No one is more concerned about his fate than I am right now," she fumed, her anger not drawing any rebuke from Black Robe, who found her frustration more genuine and fitting to her character.Easing his tone, Black Robe informed, "Ca

    Just as Selene was about to turn and leave, she felt the cold press of a gun against the back of her head. A shiver of danger ran down her spine."Who's there? Can't we talk it out?" she said, her tone sharp but cautious.An aged yet firm voice commanded from behind, "Hands up and turn around."Realizing this was no laughing matter, Selene complied, her hands rising slowly as she turned to face the source of the command.Her eyes nearly popped out of her head when Selene saw who it was. "Si-Simon? What are you doing here?" she stuttered.Simon looked at her with cold eyes, his voice stern. "After all the Duncans have done for you, you repay them by harming Miss Catherine. How could you?"Selene, caught in the act, found herself without a defense. Desperately, she argued, "But Simon, with Branden being such a catch, the Duncans have plenty of better matches. Why settle on Catherine? She's not right for Branden; she'll only drag him down."Hearing her stubbornness, Simon couldn'

    In less than half a day, news that Branden collapsed at a press conference and was fighting for his life had spread like wildfire, causing the company's stock to plummet and sending waves of panic throughout the organization.At this moment, the VIP treatment area at Casier Hospital was crowded with high-profile figures, rendering it nearly inaccessible.Upon seeing Will Brown, the hospital director, emerge from the consultation room, Karl immediately asked, "How's the situation?"Will, usually assertive, became cautious under Karl's imposing inquiry. He carefully replied, "Mr. Duncan, the situation is dire. We still can't pinpoint the cause of Branden's coma, and we're only able to slow the decline of his bodily functions with machines. As for Miss Swann..."Seeing Will hesitate, Karl impatiently snapped, "Spit it out! You're not holding up the sky. What's there to be afraid of?"Will, who had once treated a younger Karl and held a deep respect for him, replied, "Mr. Duncan, Miss

"Ronin, how is Catherine?"At the mention of Catherine, Ronin instantly became uneasy. He was furious. He wanted to kill everyone who hurt Catherine. "It was all Selene's fault. If it weren't for her hurting Catherine, Catherine wouldn't be like this now. She's still in the operating room."After hearing about Catherine's recent situation, Rylan's face immediately turned a bit pale, and his footsteps were a bit unsteady. "She's still undergoing surgery?"Ronin shook his head, his eyes turning red. "It's been over three hours already."Rylan tightly grabbed Ronin's hand and asked, "Do you know why Selene repeatedly targets Catherine?""It's because of Branden. Selene is jealous that Catherine is too excellent. She has always had a crush on Branden and she thought she could get Branden if

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.

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.

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.

    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.
