All Her Secrets

Chapter 979 Black Robe's True Identity

Although the villa was filled with people, the surroundings were surprisingly quiet at this moment.

Black Robe slowly unbuttoned his robe and took off his voice changer, revealing his true face.

Black Robe was Rylan, the mastermind who had been hiding behind the scenes.

Rylan looked up at Catherine with a cold expression of doubt. "Catherine, when did you find out my true identity?" He wanted to know the truth, but Zobber became impatient and wanted Catherine to end it as soon as possible.

But Catherine didn't end it quickly. Considering they were once friends, Catherine gave Rylan the answer. "From the day you came back home to me."

Rylan was still thinking about when he revealed a flaw that made Catherine discover it, but he never expected that he had already been exposed in front of Catherine from the very beginning.

Catherine never believed in any coincidences. She secretly investigated Rylan's situation abroad and kept her eye on him. She kept investigating and ultimately confirmed Rylan's purpose.

Rylan was nothing more than the mastermind who had been hiding behind the scenes, and the boss behind him was the Breens. The Breens not only wanted to annex the Duncan Corporation but also wanted to get the experimental results from Catherine.

Originally, Shane planned to pass on the Breens to Catherine to manage, and this way, his other goal would be achieved directly. Even if Catherine was reluctant to annex the Duncan Corporation in the end, the Breens and the Duncan Corporation would be connected by Catherine and Branden's marriage, which would be a strong alliance. It could be considered a win-win situation.

Shane didn't expect Catherine to refuse, let alone her tough attitude and Catherine actually concealed the immense power she had accumulated in the Hacker Alliance.

Shane was worried that Catherine's power would affect his family's economy, so he approached Rylan and tried everything to annex the Duncan Corporation, wanting to take down Catherine.

Rylan stared at Catherine and smiled coldly. He thought he had a clear chance of winning, but he didn't expect to end up being fooled around. "Catherine, do you think I lost?"

He stared at Catherine with an infatuated gaze. When he found out that Catherine knew everything from the beginning and kept him in the dark, he was not angry but rather a little excited. Only Catherine could do such a wise thing. That was also why he liked Catherine. He felt that only Catherine was a good match for him, but unfortunately...

Hearing his question, Catherine looked at him expressionlessly. "You want to make the last stand?"

Rylan smiled with a hint of pride in his eyes. "I don't think I've been defeated. Even if you're not injured, do you know how many of my people are around here? With just you, do you think you can leave here safely today?"

As soon as he said that, Ronin jumped down from a high place. He looked at Rylan with a cynical expression and said, "Rylan, we meet again."

Rylan glanced at him and didn't take him seriously, but what Ronin said next made him dumbfounded. "Rylan, are you still wondering why the people you ambushed in the dark haven't come out to save you yet?"

Rylan suddenly turned his head and stared at Ronin with a sinister gaze. "What have you done?"All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Ronin clapped his hands and Flash walked out from the dark. "Sir, long time no see."

At this moment, Rylan was completely desperate.

No one knew Rylan's manpower layout better than Flash. If Ronin had the help of Flash, Rylan's manpower in the dark might have been defeated.

Rylan never expected that Ronin could persuade Flash to help him.

After following Catherine for so many years, Ronin had indeed grown a lot.

Rylan tried to make a final struggle. 'Ronin, don't you care about Professor Warner?"

Hearing his question, Ronin laughed. "Professor Warner? Rylan, are you sure it's Professor Warner?"

Rylan froze for a moment. Ronin said as he looked to the crowd not far away, "Professor Warner, why are you still hiding? Hurry up and come out so Rylan can see you." Content belong to NôvelDráma. Org.

After that, a hunchbacked middle-aged man came out from among the crowd.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, even Withal and the others didn't know the truth.

The fake Winston in disguise was finally revealed for who he really was.

It turned out that Catherine knew about their plan from the beginning. She had Wantel, who was good at disguises, pretend to be Winston and move the real Winston to a safe place. Otherwise, Marshall and the others wouldn't have been able to work without worries after their best friend's disappearance. They all knew the truth, but they were just purposely putting on a show to hide the truth from the people behind the scenes.

Wantel waved his hand in greeting to Rylan. He'd been bored to death in captivity all these days, and now that he could finally come out and see the sunlight, he took some pleasure in it.

Withal punched Wantel's chest and shouted, "Brat, you did a good job. I can't believe you hid it from us for so long. I was wondering why you disappeared. It turns out that you're hiding to have a good time."

"Have a good time? You can take this boring mission the next time. You'll see if you can have a good time," Wantel replied.

How happy they were, how angry Rylan was inside.

He originally thought that everything was within his grasp, but he didn't realize that he had been fooled the whole time. He raised his eyes and closed them, sighing deeply. "Catherine, I don't regret losing to you."

Catherine had always been the girl he admired the most. She was charming, and there was no doubt about that. Rylan never doubted Catherine's ability. Catherine was indeed powerful.

Finn stood by, somewhat in disbelief at what he was hearing. "Sir, are we just going to give up?"

Rylan narrowed his eyes at him. "Since Catherine can stand here in peace, what do you think is the situation on Branden's side?

His words left Finn speechless. Catherine was already powerful. If she joined forces with Branden, they would be invincible indeed.

They had been exposed from the beginning, and now they were doing nothing more than a useless struggle. Catherine stood silent. It would be best if Rylan would surrender because it would save Catherine a lot of trouble and reduce unnecessary injuries.

Actually, Rylan was wrong about one thing. Branden was not safe and sound, he was not out of danger yet.

To make Rylan believe that Branden was poisoned, Branden did take poison. Although he did not take a large dose of poison, it still caused some harm to his body.

Catherine only found out about this when she arrived at the hospital.

Worried that she might stop, Branden didn't tell her beforehand.

But no one expected that Selene would actually put her hands on Thomas, causing an unexpected incident.

"Can I make one last request?" Rylan asked.

Catherine raised her eyebrows and gestured for him to make his request.

Rylan looked at Finn beside him. "I'll come with you. Please let Finn go. He did everything according to my instructions and didn't do anything wrong."

Before Finn, almost everything was handled by Flash, so Finn was not at fault.

Finn widened his eyes and looked incredulous. He didn't expect his boss to beg others for him at the last moment.
