All Her Secrets

Chapter 912 How Dare You!

Withal turned away, unable to bring himself to hurt his good friend. He delegated the task of extracting a confession to Zobber, cautioning her to be gentle.

Zobber nodded. But then again, she used to be Ronin's close friend as well. How could she bring herself to harm him?

Zobber slowly approached Ronin. She decided to try her best not to hurt him and urged him to tell the truth.Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Looking at the interrogation tools, Ronin realized they were serious about this, and he resigned himself to his fate.

Just as Zobber was about to take action, the door to the secret room was forcefully knocked open. Before the three of them realized what was going on, they saw a motorcycle crash through the door and land smoothly on the ground.

Catherine parked the heavy bike, stepped off, and gazed coldly at the three individuals.

At the sight of Catherine, Zobber panicked instinctively. "Catherine, why are you here?" Catherine glared at her and said, "I'll teach you a lesson later." Then, she walked over to Ronin.

Drawing a knife from behind her waist, she freed Ronin from the ropes. After putting away the knife, she smacked Ronin on the head.

Ronin looked bewildered, gazing up at Catherine with a puzzled expression. She glared at him and rebuked, "I taught you how to deal with this kind of situation back then. And now you're tied up like this, staring at me like a fool?"

Hearing Catherine's words, Ronin lowered his head and muttered, "I never expected these two to be the ones to attack me."

Though his voice was low, everyone present heard it. Withal and Zobber laughed awkwardly, knowing that Catherine was angry. Seeing Catherine untie Ronin, Zobber took the initiative to explain to Catherine. "Catherine, Ronin is a traitor, I have evidence!" "What evidence?" Catherine asked.

Zobber then presented the information she had found to Catherine.

After glancing at the documents, Catherine threw them at Zobber. "Is this your so-called evidence?"

Zobber looked at Catherine in disbelief. "Catherine, isn't it enough?" She had worked hard for two days to dig up the information, only to have it dismissed by Catherine.

Catherine retorted, "Evidence? I could produce two copies of these in an hour."

Zobber couldn't accept these harsh words and glared at Catherine. "You are covering for Ronin, Catherine! You have a good relationship with him, so you refuse to believe he betrayed you. Even when the fact is right in front of you, you refuse to accept it!" Catherine bellowed, "How dare you!"

Sensing the tension, Withal reached out to try to stop Zobber, but to no avail.

"I used to respect you because you are fair and capable. But now, you've turned a blind eye to Ronin. I won't listen to you anymore, "Zobber said defiantly before storming off in anger.

Withal glanced at Catherine and urgently followed her out.

Ronin looked worriedly in the direction they left, then turned to Catherine. "Catherine, Zobber will be okay, right?"

Catherine, expressionless, replied, "Withal is with her. Nothing will happen."

"It wasn't me, Catherine!" Ronin knew Catherine believed him, but he couldn't help but explain again.

Catherine nodded slightly. "I know."

Despite this, Ronin felt very upset. His two best friends didn't trust him now. "Catherine, give me some time. I will find evidence and clear my name."

Catherine didn't say much. After saving Ronin, she left directly. She was tired and needed to rest.

Ronin came out of the secret room, feeling dejected. Not long after, he ran into Finn, who looked at him and gestured towards a nearby car.

Although Ronin was feeling frustrated, he still got into the car. He couldn't let his emotions disrupt Catherine's plan.

Before long, the car stopped, and Ronin was brought in front of Black Robe. Then, Finn left.

Ronin was still pondering why he was brought here, so he didn't speak immediately. Black Robe slowly said, "Have you suffered?"

Ronin suddenly realized something and glared at the man in front of him. "So, it was you who planted those pieces of evidence. Do you know I almost got killed by Zobber?"

His agitated demeanor, to Black Robe, seemed like the anger of someone who had suffered inhumane treatment, which made him aware of the success of his plan, bringing him inner joy. "Don't get so worked up. You're still standing in front of me now, aren't you? This time, I'll give you credit," said Black Robe.

"I don't care!" Ronin couldn't hide his anger. "You take all the credit. I almost lost my life."

The more agitated Ronin became, the more Black Robe thought he was successful. In the end, Ronin left safely with a large check as a reward.

He kept the money, even though it was ill-gotten gains. He would rather donate it to charity than tear it up on the spot.

Branden came home from work and saw Catherine peacefully asleep on the couch. Seeing this softened his heart a bit. He approached slowly, ready to pick her up.

However, his phone started buzzing, so he chose to answer the phone first to avoid waking Catherine.

Catherine woke up slowly and felt a presence nearby. It seemed like Branden was approaching. But when she opened her eyes, the living room was empty.

Seeing the shoes by the door, Catherine knew it wasn't her imagination. She got up slowly and headed in the direction of the study. If he wasn't in the living room, he was most likely in the study.

As she approached the study, Catherine stopped in her tracks. She heard voices inside, and they mentioned her.
