All Her Secrets

Chapter 848 Questioning from the Authorities

The morning sunshine shone gently in the room. The beauty sleeping on the bed was awakened by the sunlight.

Catherine slowly opened her eyes. Looking at the familiar decorations, she realized that she was now sleeping on the bed in Branden’s apartment.

She remembered that last night she and Branden had indulged in a night of indulgence within the crystal spherical house until she finally ran out of energy and fell asleep.

She didn’t remember how Branden brought her back to the apartment from outside and made her sleep peacefully in bed.

“Are you awake?” Branden’s gentle voice came. Catherine looked up and saw Branden standing at the door wearing an apron.

Standing against the light, he seemed to be covered in a layer of golden light, shining brightly. “Get up and have some breakfast. I’ll take you to school later. Marshall should be up early and waiting for you in the lab. Today is certification day.”

“Okay.” At the mention of Marshall, Catherine smiled a little helplessly.

Marshall was really funny.

After changing into the clothes Branden had prepared, Catherine finished washing up and walked out of the bedroom.

The table in the dining room was set with light dishes, but they were all the perfect foods for breakfast.

“Do you need me to accompany you today?” Branden took the initiative to propose.

Catherine refused without even thinking about it. “It’s just a certification. I’ll just go by myself.”

She had always been independent. Having someone accompany her would make her uncomfortable instead.

Branden respected her choice. After having breakfast, she was sent to school.

It was Paxton who drove. After Catherine left, Paxton didn’t immediately start the car and leave. ” Mr. Duncan, we checked. Rylan didn’t show up.”

After hearing the news, Branden sneered and a sharp cold light appeared in his eyes. “Hmph, there’s no rush. Keep watching the show.”

His sneer made Paxton shiver. Paxton thought to himself, “What’s wrong with Rylan? Is he an idiot? How could anyone be stupid enough to mess with Mr. Duncan? Isn’t he seeking death?”

“Mr. Duncan, shall we return to the office?” Paxton asked as he finished his thought.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Okay,” Branden grunted, and Paxton immediately started the car and drove in the direction of the Duncan Corporation.

Marshall waited for a long time, sticking his neck out in anticipation. He finally saw Catherine’s figure appear.

After seeing Catherine appear, he immediately greeted her, “Catherine, you came quite early today.”

Catherine pursed her lips and smiled lightly. “You came earlier than me.”

Marshall’s face stiffened as he awkwardly thought to himself, ”  Catherine is laughing at me again.”

After much consideration last night when he returned, he finally took out the calming pills given by Catherine and took one.

The pill was effective. Not only did it relieve his nervousness, but it also allowed him to sleep comfortably.

“Catherine, I have everything ready on my end. Mr. Farrell personally arranged for the car. He’ll go with us. It’s still early. Do you want to check the information again?” Marshall asked.

Checking was not a habit Catherine had. Her preparations were foolproof every time, and there was no need to check at all.

“No need,” Catherine responded arrogantly.

If other students were to say such words, Marshall would have already knocked them on the heads, but he wouldn’t do that to Catherine.

Because he trusted Catherine’s ability. He knew that since she said it, she would make it.

“Then you…” Without waiting for Marshall to finish, Catherine stated her arrangement. “I’ll go to my lab.”

Marshall nodded in satisfaction. That was what he liked about Catherine. He never had to worry about Catherine and she would arrange everything reasonably.

In the blink of an eye, it was 10 o’clock in the morning. Marshall went to the lab door and notified Catherine to depart.

Catherine walked out the door, casually took a hat, and put it on. She followed Marshall to Ultan, who was waiting downstairs.

Seeing Catherine appear, Ultan frowned slightly and questioned Marshall in a whisper, “You didn’t tell Catherine what kind of occasion we’re going to today?”

Marshall nonchalantly rolled his eyes at Ultan. “You think she doesn’t know?”

“But she’s dressed like this…” It was clear that Ultan wasn’t very satisfied with Catherine’s outfit today.

Catherine was wearing a casual outfit today. Although it made her very comfortable, it was not suitable for formal occasions.

Ultan and Marshall were both dressed in suits and ties, looking very formal, and Catherine did look a little out of place standing next to them.

Fortunately, Marshall didn’t care about this. After hearing Ultan’s words, he said nonchalantly, “What’s wrong with dressing like that? She has talent.”

He thought it was a virtue that his students liked to keep a low profile.

Seeing Marshall’s arrogant appearance, Ultan knew that he couldn’t persuade him, so he simply gave up. “Okay, fine. You have a point. Get in the car. Let’s go.”

After saying that, the three got into the car together and set off for the certification organization.

The lab had sent out its application a month ago. This time, the certification would be held at the most famous certification organization in Eskana.

Because of the special nature of the experimental project, the certification organization also invited several well- known organizations with international authority to participate together.

This was done for fairness and also for the sake of being able to get international certification in the future, which was a necessary process.

The reason why Catherine rushed to certify on this day was that it was not easy to invite the authoritative experts of these certification organizations to Eskana together.

If she missed this time, the next time might be a long way off.

After arriving at their destination, Ultan took Catherine and Marshall to the certification hall.

They needed to submit all of Catherine’s reports, and then submit them to the international lab’s formula set of tests after the site confirmed and gave a preliminary certification.

“Ready?” Marshall asked Catherine.

Catherine nodded slightly. Marshall’s fingers trembled slightly as he gently patted Catherine’s shoulder. “Go if you’re ready.”

Before Catherine left, she advised, ” Professor Hartley, take another one of those pills I gave you.”

Marshall frowned and was about to refute Catherine. Seeing her resolute expression, he could only follow her advice and took out a pill from the small porcelain bottle to take. “Well, don’t worry. I’m not nervous.”

“Okay.” Catherine wasn’t afraid that Marshall would be nervous. She was worried that Marshall wouldn’t be able to accept the next scene.

Catherine stood on the stage. There were thirty certifiers arranged from each of the world’s top ten organizations sitting below. Even though most of them were foreigners, Catherine stood without fear, a faint domineering aura lingering around her.

She made the information public, but this information was not the core part.

However, when she displayed the information, there was a commotion in the originally quiet venue.

Whispers and various voices came. But they weren’t voices of amazement, they were voices of questioning.

Both Ultan and Marshall realized that something was wrong, and the two of them glanced at each other. Ultan gestured for Marshall to calm down, and he immediately went to inquire about the situation.

Just then, the president of the certification organization looked at Catherine with a microphone.

His expression was very serious and his voice was unusually sharp. “Miss Swann, are you sure this is your experimental certification information?
