All Her Secrets

Chapter 854 Being Convinced

Amelia walked into the lab and saw Catherine standing on the side organizing documents, so she immediately went over to help. “Super Catherine, let me handle these things!”

Seeing her eager to do it, Catherine didn’t stop her, so she handed Amelia the documents and turned to get water.

It was lunchtime now. Only Catherine and Amelia were in the lab.

Amelia immediately started chatting with Catherine, “Hey, Super Catherine, I saw Zobber when I came in just now. She seemed a little angry and stomped off. Did you guys have a fight?”

Amelia didn’t think it was very likely, but when Zobber left, her face was indeed very angry.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

After hearing what Amelia said, Catherine couldn’t help but smile wryly. “That girl is on her period these days. I scolded her a bit, but it’s no big deal.”

“Period? No wonder she’s in a bad mood. So am I. Every time I’m on my period, I just want to tear everything within a 30 feet radius to shreds,” replied Amelia.

Catherine put down her empty cup and said to Amelia, “I’m gonna go take a break.”

Amelia knew she had been working overtime on her experiments these days and must be exhausted. “Super Catherine, you go ahead. Leave it to me. I promise to help you get everything in order.”

“Yeah.” Catherine nodded and then turned toward her office.

She was the first one in the lab to have her own office during her student days, and that was a privilege that Marshall Hartley arranged for her.

She was always stuck in the lab. It was really inconvenient not having an office to take a break in sometimes.

As soon as she entered the lab, Catherine’s phone in her pocket buzzed. She glanced at the incoming number, then swiped to answer and put the phone to her ear.

“Chief, I’ve finished modifying the data for the lab report. When should I send it to you?” said Rodge.

It was a day earlier than Rodge had promised her.

It was no surprise to Catherine that Rodge finished the task early. After all, she knew how capable he was. “No rush. Keep it for now. Rodge, I have another task for you.”

When Rodge heard Catherine’s response, he couldn’t help but feel a little confused.

He heard about the certification committee. To prevent the information from leaking again, Catherine gave him all the experimental data and let him make the modifications.

When he saw the information, he was once again shocked by Catherine’s ability. Catherine was actually able to come up with all the modification ideas in such a short period of time.

If it were him, it would be hard to finish it in less than a year or so. But Catherine did it in less than a day as if she had already anticipated and prepared for it.

Catherine gave him the direction for the changes, and he just needed to follow her lead to do the next process. Basically, he was just a ghostwriter.

He thought that Catherine would submit the information to the certification committee right away to complete the certification, but it looked like she was not in a hurry.

But he believed that Catherine must have her reasons for doing so.

He had been by Catherine’s side for so many years and had never seen her make any wrong decisions. “Chief, go ahead, please!”

After Catherine finished explaining the task to Rodge, she tossed the phone aside and relaxed.

After leaving Styre University angrily, Zobber went back to Connie’s house.

Withal was bored, playing a game. Seeing Zobber appear all angry, Withal couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “Who did you get shut out by again? Why are you coming back with such a sour face? 11

It would be fine if Withal didn’t mention it. As soon as he brought it up, Zobber got even angrier.

“Withal, I went to see Catherine today. I showed her Ronin’s video. Guess what happened?” asked Zobber.

Withal casually tossed the game controller aside and continued, ” Alright, spill it. What’s going on?”

“Can you believe it? Catherine didn’t react at all. That’s bad enough, but even worse, when I said I wanted to settle things with Ronin, she said it wasn’t necessary. Do you think that’s reasonable? Catherine hates it when people betray her. We both know that, right?” replied Zobber.

Seeing the furious Zobber, Withal gestured for her to calm down. “Please have a seat first, and don’t be so worked up.”

“How am I supposed to calm down?” Zobber was so angry right now and just wanted to let it all out.

Seeing the situation, Withal didn’t try to persuade her but rather voiced his thoughts. “I’m asking you. Don’t you understand the relationship between Ronin and Catherine? Ronin has betrayed Catherine now. It’s like her own blood brother betraying her. Even though Ronin isn’t related to Catherine by blood, he’s closer to her in her heart than her actual blood brother. If it were you being betrayed by the closest person to you, what would you do? Would you just kill them, or what?”

“I…” Zobber was just about to say something, but then she swallowed her words.

She couldn’t believe how she would handle it if her parents ever betrayed her one day.

For Catherine, Ronin was like a family. Anyone who was betrayed by a family member would have a hard time making a calm decision.

Zobber, who was usually very articulate, suddenly went silent. Withal knew that he had finally convinced her.

He reached out and gently patted Zobber on the shoulder. “The thing has already happened, and we just gotta trust the wisdom of Catherine. She might not have a solution right now, but I believe she’ll come up with a decision soon. We just gotta wait for the update. Don’t get too mad. We just need to do whatever Catherine says.”

The anger in Zobber’s heart was gradually calmed down by Withal.

She lost her previous anger and gradually regained a calm rationality. ” Alright, then we’ll just wait for Catherine to give us the task.”

Zobber stared fiercely at the phone on the table and said menacingly, “As long as Catherine orders me to finish Ronin, I will definitely go all out and kill this bastard without mercy.”

The most annoying thing for Zobber was being betrayed by someone. She had thought about it before. If Ronin chose to betray them because he couldn’t handle the torture and abuse, she would definitely forgive Ronin and personally rescue him, then slaughter that group of assholes.

But the situation she saw in the surveillance footage was completely different from what she had in mind. Ronin did not look like he was being tortured at all. It was obvious that he was in cahoots with them.

She even suspected that Ronin had been bought long ago, and being caught was all Ronin’s choice. Her initial guilt had turned into hatred toward Ronin.

She swore that if she got her hands on that little bastard Ronin, she would make him understand what the hell on earth felt like.
