All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 148 Send You to School
Soon, it was the first round of auditions for the school’s celebration gala. It was an aristocratic school. Whenever it came to a
celebration, the school would pay much attention to it and hold a grand event.
Moreover, it was the anniversary celebration this time, so the school authorities attached great importance to it. Even people
from art colleges were coming to select talents.
Bryan had been training overtime these days and finally made some headway, and Catherine had already recognized him as
part of the team.
The school authorized the students not to wear uniforms during the performance. Bryan had arranged for the best tailor to make
a new outfit, which was the same color as his guitar, an invincible match.
Seeing Bryan coming down from upstairs without wearing a school uniform and going out without even eating breakfast, Karl
shouted to him to stop immediately. “Brat, dressed like that, where are you going by skipping school?”
Hearing Karl’s words, someone immediately blocked Bryan. Bryan could only obediently turn back and respond, “Grandpa, I’m
going to school.”
“Humph!” Karl snorted and rolled his eyes at Bryan with great disdain. ” Going to school? Dressed like this? With such a big
black box on your back, are you telling me that you’re going to school? Do you really think I’m old and easy to fool?”
Bryan really felt that Branden shouldn’t be so capable as to let Karl retire at such a young age. Judging from Karl’s vigorous
appearance, he should be able to work at the company for a few more years. That way, Karl wouldn’t have the time to keep an
eye on him.
“The first round of auditions for the school’s celebration gala is being held today, and I’ve signed up to participate. The school
informed us that we don’t have to wear school uniforms.”
Seeing Bryan’s sincere face, Karl cast a glance toward the butler on the side. The butler had been with Karl for decades and
knew what he was going to ask with just one look.
Everything, no matter how big or small, was followed by the butler. He knew that Bryan had been practicing his guitar hard at
home lately.

Getting an affirmative answer from the butler, Karl became interested and looked at Bryan with an excited face.
“Since there’s a performance, do you want us to go and cheer you on? I’ll arrange for a group to go.”
“Cheer me on? Arrange for a group?” Bryan repeated inwardly. Karl’s words gave him a massive headache.
He wondered, “Does Grandpa think this is a kindergarten performance party? Does he think I’m a kindergarten kid?”
Bryan was speechless and refused with a dark face. “No need, Grandpa. I’ve formed a troupe with my classmates. It’s not so
nice for you guys to go and their parents not to be there.”
He was clear that he couldn’t directly reject and refute Karl. Otherwise, when Karl’s temper flared up, he might really arrange a
group to go there. Bryan would be the one to suffer at that time.
“Well...” Karl pondered it thoughtfully. Before he could think through the matter, Branden on the side blurted out, “Will Catherine
be there too?”
It was rare that Branden, who never cared about family matters, would suddenly ask something. The few of them were shocked
and focused their eyes on him.
Branden, however, looked natural. There was no other expression on his cool and handsome face. Only his clear and dark eyes
slowly landed on Bryan. His eyes were calm without any emotion, but they gave Bryan an endless sense of oppression.
Bryan did not want to talk to Branden about Catherine. After a stalemate of no more than three seconds, he failed.
“Yeah.” Bryan said. After hearing his response, Branden elegantly wiped his hands, stood up, and said coldly, “I’ll take you to
school.
Bryan was furious, but that was all. In front of Branden, he never dared to say anything. He thought, “I’ve already grown up, and
I’m not an elementary school student. Is he actually taking me to school? How could he even think of that?”
Bryan knew that Branden was taking him to school because he wanted to see Catherine. The thought of his boss being minded
by some other people made Bryan uneasy in his heart.
Even though he had a lot of complaints in his heart, Bryan still had to obediently follow Branden the moment he walked out the
door.

This was the rule of the Duncans. The words of the family head were orders. No matter who it was, they had to carry it out
unconditionally. Karl, sitting at the dining table, looked at the departing backs of the two men and silently fell into contemplation.
He didn’t expect that his youngest son would actually emotionally change in one day. It was really rare. He noticed Branden’s
eyes obviously softened for a moment when Bryan mentioned that name just now. It was unusual.
He thought, “More good show is going to come. What a rare occurrence.”
“Go check that Catherine,” Karl ordered. Hearing the command, the butler hurriedly answered, “Will do, sir.”
Branden took Bryan to the school gate. Before they could get out of the car, Bryan took the initiative to say, “Boss arrives at
school every day just as the bell rings. We came early today, so there’s no way we’ll run into her.”
He purposely asked the driver to speed up and didn’t remind Branden because he didn’t want Branden to bump into Catherine.
He always felt that Branden was not a good match for Catherine.
Although Branden was excellent and unrivaled in Bryan’s mind, he was a businessman with a mercenary and treacherous
nature. He was experienced and cunning, and no one was a match for him.
But Catherine was different. She was refined and unique, like a fairy. How could Branden not understand Bryan’s thoughts? He
just didn’t bother with Bryan.
Before Bryan could say more, Paxton had already come to the car door and took the initiative to open it for him.
“Mr. Bryan, please.”
It was evident that Bryan was being driven away. However, he was overjoyed in his heart that he had still achieved his goal. But
Bryan underestimated how much Branden was interested in Catherine.
After Bryan walked inside the school, he glanced at the school gate and realized that Branden’s car was parked in the same spot
with no intention of leaving.
Bryan couldn’t help but feel a pang of exasperation. “I should have been more careful,” he thought. True to Bryan’s word, five
minutes before the bell rang, Catherine appeared.
Catherine saw Paxton standing next to a black car. Paxton was like Branden’s shadow. Whenever Paxton appeared, it meant
Branden was also around. Catherine glanced toward the black car. It was different from the last one. It was a Cullinan Black

Badge.
“What a fickle man, but he’s dedicated to color. He’s never been in a car that wasn’t black,” Catherine thought. Just as Catherine
turned back and headed toward the car, Branden got out of it and stood beside it, waiting for Catherine’s approach.
Standing a step away from him, Catherine raised an eyebrow and fixed her cold eyes on Branden.
“What brings you here?” she asked. Her voice did not have the slightest warmth, nor did her eyes fill with a smile. But she wasn’t
as cold and unapproachable to Branden as she would have been to a stranger.
For Catherine, it was already a rare attitude to have. Branden took the food box Paxton handed him and brought it in front of
Catherine.
“Here, your breakfast.”
“Did he come all the way here just to bring me breakfast?” Catherine wondered.
