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.It became a hot topic on the internet and lasted for a long time, which Catherine found confusing cause she was not a celebrity. But she became a hot topic on the internet now and then.Branden cal

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,

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

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

Although the villa was filled with people, the surroundings were surprisingly quiet at this moment.Black Robe slowly unbuttoned his robe and took off his voice changer, revealing his true face.Black Robe was Rylan, the mastermind who had been hiding behind the scenes.Rylan looked up at Catherine with a cold expression of doubt. "Catherine, when did you find out my true identity?"He wanted to know the truth, but Zobber became impatient and wanted Catherine to end it as soon as possible.But Catherine didn't end it quickly. Considering they were once friends, Catherine gave Rylan the answer. "From the day you came back home to me."Rylan was still thinking about when he revealed a flaw that made Catherine discover it, but he never expected that he had already been exposed in front of Catherine from the very beginning.Catherine never believed in any coincidences. She secretly investigated Rylan's situation abroad and kept her eye on him. She kept investigating and ultimately c
