All Her Secrets

Chapter 809 New Boyfriend Amelia was planning to drag Isabella away when Rylan first spotted the two and walked directly toward Amelia. "Amelia, please wait!"

Isabella turned her head to look at Amelia, her eyes filled with questions. " Well, he knew Amelia's name in such a short time," she thought.

Amelia looked innocent. She didn't want any of this. It had nothing to do with her. All she could say was that Rylan was really something.

Now, neither walking away nor standing still seemed appropriate, so the two of them awkwardly stood there. Rylan approached and stood in front of Amelia, blocking her way. "Amelia, is Catherine in the dormitory? Or is she in the lab?"

Amelia originally wanted to say she didn't know, but Rylan's eyes and the warm smile on his face... She really couldn't lie to such a handsome guy, so she had to tell the truth. "Mr. Melton, Catherine is upstairs. But she seemed to have returned very late last night, so she slept quite soundly and probably won't get up so soon."

Amelia couldn't speculate about Catherine's situation. After all, she didn't know what had happened between Catherine and Branden. It was Catherine's business, and she couldn't casually tell others.

The reason she said this was to hope Rylan would back off and not bother Catherine for the time being.

Having obtained the information he wanted, Rylan no longer stopped Amelia. "Thanks, Amelia."

"You're welcome." Seeing the release, Amelia immediately pulled Isabella away. She was afraid she might say something wrong if she stayed any longer.

Rylan watched Amelia leave. He didn't have any ulterior motives toward Amelia. He was just in a pretty good mood because Amelia brought him good news.

Catherine didn't stay at Branden's apartment last night and returned to the school in the middle of the night. It indicated a rift or an argument between her and Branden.

He would wait here until Catherine appeared.

At noon, the sun shone into the dormitory beds. Feeling the warmth, Catherine opened her eyes in her sleep and woke up slowly. Glancing at the time, she had actually slept through lunch.

Catherine immediately got out of bed. Since no one was in the dormitory, she didn't need to be discreet. With a handsome flip, she stood firmly on the floor.

After a quick wash, Catherine came down from the dormitory, ready to have lunch at the cafeteria before heading to the lab.

As she descended the stairs, she saw Rylan standing in front. With an expressionless face, Catherine walked past him, completely ignoring him.

However, Rylan wasn't willing to let Catherine go so easily. When Catherine walked past, he immediately followed, wearing a full smile, seemingly unafraid of rejection. "Catherine, it's lunchtime already. How about you take me to your cafeteria?"

Catherine stopped and turned her head toward him, her eyes cold, face expressionless. "Can't you go by yourself? Why should I take you?"Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Rylan, acting as if it was perfectly reasonable, said, "Catherine, I think the food in your cafeteria is excellent. But I'm not a student here and can't buy the food. I only know you here, so naturally, you'll take me. Anyway, we've known each other for so long. Are you really unwilling to treat me to a meal at the cafeteria?"

"Yeah, I'm unwilling." Catherine bluntly refused and pointed to the side of the road. "Rylan, if you really want to eat, just stand there and shout. With your looks, I guarantee someone will take you to the cafeteria or even treat you."

Catherine wasn't exaggerating; Rylan could indeed get a meal based on his appearance. He could easily deceive quite a few naive girls with his handsome looks. Otherwise, the school wouldn't have been filled with rumors and gossip about Catherine because of Rylan during this time.

After hearing Catherine's sarcasm, Rylan didn't get angry. Instead, the smile on his face became more apparent. "Catherine, I like the way you speak. I didn't expect you to appreciate my appearance as well."

Rylan knew very well that his face was attractive to girls, but he never cared about these things. But if Catherine liked it, it would be a different story. He didn't mind using his looks to his advantage.

Seeing that she couldn't shake off Rylan, Catherine could only let him follow.

The two entered the cafeteria one after the other, attracting quite a bit of attention. Even though it wasn't peak hours, there were still quite a few people inside the cafeteria.

The crowd discreetly observed Catherine and Rylan, whispering and gossiping.

"Isn't that Catherine? I remember the handsome guy who used to be by her side wasn't this one, right?"

"Who knows, maybe he's her new boyfriend."

A female student gazed at Catherine with envy. "Why is she so amazing? Every boyfriend she has is so handsome. Our campus heartthrob is nothing compared to this guy!"

"Haven't you seen how capable Catherine is? If we had half of her abilities, we wouldn't be single until now."

Endless rumors and gossip surrounded them, but Catherine was accustomed to these discussions, expressionlessly walking toward the food counter.

After ordering her meal, she was about to leave, but she heard Rylan talking to the cafeteria lady behind her. "Ma'am, please get me the same as her." Catherine frowned and turned around." Did I say I would treat you to a meal?"

Before Rylan could reply, the cafeteria lady interrupted, "Dear, don't be so harsh on your boyfriend. It's just a meal, and you can pay for your boyfriend." Catherine rolled her eyes in silence and didn't want to argue. She knew she could not outdo the cafeteria lady in an argument.

Having no other choice, she had to help Rylan cover the meal expenses. Accepting the plate from the cafeteria lady, Rylan thanked her with a smile. Catherine found a place to sit, and Rylan immediately followed suit. Glancing at the plates in front of them, Catherine compared her own portion with Rylan's.

Indeed, some people could receive preferential treatment just based on their appearance. The portion of meat the cafeteria lady gave Rylan was clearly twice as much as hers.

Rylan noticed Catherine's gaze. He picked up a piece of meat from his plate and tried to put it onto Catherine's plate.

But before it could land, Catherine spoke up. "Enjoy your meal. Don't push me to the point where I have to hit you.

Aware of Catherine's temper, Rylan dared not provoke her at this moment and silently retracted the offered fork.

Suddenly, a flash quickly passed by.

Catherine subconsciously looked to the side and saw a group of students taking pictures of the flowers in front of the cafeteria. She didn't think much of it.

Focusing on her meal, Catherine quickly finished her food.

Seeing she was about to finish om eating, Rylan hurriedly asked, "Catherine, what will you do next? How about I take you somewhere fun? I've been in Loxton for a while but haven't had a good time."

Without even looking at him, Catherine packed up her utensils and left.

Rylan acted as if he hadn't seen Catherine's disgust and persistently followed her. Seeing Catherine about to enter the lab Building, he raised his voice and shouted, "Don't you believe me yet? Do you still not think Branden deliberately got close to you?"
