All Her Secrets

Inside the hospital room, Catherine saw Leonel lying in a hospital bed. He was wrapped in a lot of bandages. He had just woken up from a coma and still looked a little weak.

Hearing footsteps, he opened his eyes. After discovering that the person coming was Catherine, his expression was clearly a bit excited.

“Miss Swann, you need to be careful lately. After Korbin attacked me, his next target must be you!” Facing Leonel’s reminder, Catherine looked at him with an expressionless face and issued a question strangely.

“Why are you so sure it was Korbin?” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Leonel thought Catherine was too young to understand the sinister nature of human beings in the world.

He reminded her again, “Miss Swann, people can do anything for money. Many people can even kill their siblings for money. Humans are the most sinister.

“And the reason I’m so sure is because I’m well aware that Vicente had an elite unit cultivated secretly during his lifetime. Later, this elite unit was pocketed by Korbin. The person just attacked me happened to be someone I once met in the unit.” who

Leonel was Vicente’s most trusted person during his lifetime. He had been involved in many internal affairs within the Swanns and had a good understanding of the Swanns.

Catherine didn’t know that her grandfather actually had an elite unit. It seemed that her grandfather was really hiding a lot of things from her.

However, this could save her time. She could check fewer things and focus on arranging the next layout. Was Korbin desperate and starting to use his trump card?

He was worried that she would win the bet and take the Swann Corporation into her hands, so he couldn’t wait to kill her?

Her father was really ruthless and had learned fully of Vicente’s ruthless side. She had promised Vicente back then that she would never kill anyone of the Swanns. But she didn’t say she wouldn’t fight back!

Since Korbin wanted to bring her to her death regardless of their family affection, why should she be merciful to Korbin?

She pressed her lips together and curled them up slightly, showing a seductive and evil smile. At first glance, her smile was very charming, but upon closer inspection, it could make people’s blood freeze.

“Have a good rest. I’ll take my leave first!”

Catherine walked out of the hospital ward after saying that to Leonel. Just as she walked out, Audrey stepped forward, looking at her with a concerned face. “Kathy, is Leonel okay?

“He’s fine!” Catherine responded coldly. Audrey breathed a sigh of relief silently and then emphasized, “Leonel is Grandpa’s most capable assistant and has been with Grandpa for so many years. We can’t let anything happen to him, or else I’ll feel guilty!”

Catherine narrowed her eyes slightly and sized up Audrey with the corner of her eyes. It was a seemingly careless look, but if one looked at her closely, one would find that she was sizing Audrey up very carefully.

She could tell that Audrey had great respect for Vicente. When Audrey was expelled from the Swanns, although Vicente did not personally do it, as the head of the family, Vicente did not come out to stop it. It could be said that Vicente allowed all of this to happen tacitly.

It was interesting that Audrey still respected Vicente so much after all that.

“You are so loyal to Grandpa. You even show a little more respect for the people he valued during his lifetime.”

Catherine’s voice was soft, even with a hint of teasing. Hearing this, Audrey froze for a moment. After a few seconds, she reacted. But instead of getting angry, she turned to Catherine and comforted her.

In her opinion, the fact that Catherine would make such a teasing comment was a sign of her dissatisfaction with their grandfather for sending her to the countryside back then.

“Kathy, don’t be angry with Grandpa. We have such a big family. We don’t know how many things were waiting for Grandpa to handle every day. There was too much pressure on him. He still loved us. After all, we are his own granddaughters. Do you think I’m right?”

Catherine gave Audrey an expressionless look and said to her with a lazy attitude, “As long as you’re happy!”

No one knew Vicente better than Catherine. He wasn’t a responsible grandfather, but he was indeed a good head of the family.

He was a great businessman. He had the situation well in hand and controlled everything, taking the Swann Corporation to create one glory after another. For the sake of the Swanns, he could compromise everything.

For example, she was obviously sent to the countryside by the Swanns when she was a child. But after she revealed her amazing talent, Vicente could condescend to personally come to accompany her, tutor her, and even do everything to make her get the Swann Corporation.

All of this was for a better Swann Corporation. This was Vicente, a complete businessman. After making sure Leonel was okay, Catherine was ready to go home. She still had a series of things to arrange.

Since Linda wasn’t hurt, Catherine left everything at the hospital to her for the time being. Catherine left the hospital with Audrey.

Audrey couldn’t understand why Catherine came to the hospital in a hurry just now but left after taking a simple glance.

“Kathy, don’t we need to stay a little longer and help Linda?”

Hearing her words, Catherine turned back to glance at her with her hands in her pockets and her head down.

“So, what do you think you can do to help Linda here?”

Audrey wanted to refute her, but she couldn’t find any words to refute her after she racked her brains. The fact was just like what Catherine said. Tough Linda didn’t need their help at all.

If Audrey stayed, she might even cause trouble for Linda. After seeing through the fact, Audrey left the hospital with Catherine obediently.

Inside the building of the Duncan Corporation, Paxton immediately rushed into the door of the president’s office after receiving the news.

Since Catherine appeared, anything related to her had been considered a level-one task and must be reported in the shortest possible time.

Now Paxton understood that even if it was not Catherine who was in trouble, but someone close to her, it was still considered an urgent matter. And he had to report it to Branden as soon as possible.

Hearing the knock on the door, Branden lifted his head slowly from the bookcase, revealing his handsome and stunning face. Upon seeing Paxton standing in the doorway, he said, “Come in!”

His deep and low voice echoed throughout the office. Paxton dared not hesitate and walked to Branden’s desk with the document, reporting the latest situation.

“Mr. Duncan, Leonel was attacked. He is in the hospital and is not in danger of his life for the time being.”

Branden stopped his movements and looked at Paxton. A chilling cold light flashed in his obsidian-like eyes, giving out a terrifying domineering aura. Paxton lowered his head. Branden’s powerful aura made Paxton not dare to look at him.

“Mr. Duncan, Miss Swann is fine. She has already visited Leonel at the hospital.”

Just after saying that, Paxton felt the pressure inside the office gradually disappearing. He breathed a slow sigh of relief and secretly congratulated himself on surviving.

Paxton thought in his heart secretly, ” It seems that Mr. Duncan values Catherine far more than I’ve imagined and deeper than my understanding.”

Catherine’s position in Branden’s heart was unparalleled by ordinary people.
