All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 303 Gave Up
Korbin understood what Paxton meant for sure. Paxton might only be Branden’s assistant. However, what he said represented
Branden’s intention.
Korbin did not speak up soon and looked at Rachael instead. He wanted her to settle this matter. Rachael panicked. She did not
expect this matter to be so serious.
Being imprisoned for ten years would mean her son’s life would be doomed. She would never let that happen. Under her
husband’s instigation, she decided to beg Branden for mercy.
The only person who could turn the table was Branden. She put down her arrogance and looked at Branden with a smile.
“Mr. Duncan, I think this must be a misunderstanding.”
It was again the same old sentence. Branden did not even look at her. Feeling awkward, Racheal decided to punish her son. She
turned around and slapped Johnathan. It was a loud slap as if she was trying to prove something.
Johnathan was dumbfounded again. This was the first time his mother had slapped him in his life. Rachael gritted her teeth and
said, ” Brat, be honest! Do you want to be taken away by the police?”
Johnathan lifted his head and looked at his mother. He noticed his mother trying to beckon him to go with her flow. He covered
his face and cried, “Mom, I didn’t do it! I wouldn’t dare!”
He wanted to deny it, but Paxton did not give him another chance. Paxton took out a new piece of evidence and said, “Mr.
Swann, Mrs. Swann. this is the transaction history of Mr. Johnathan transferring money to one of the culprits.”
When Paxton showed them the evidence, Rachael fell to the ground, and Korbin’s expression turned gloomy. They finally
understood that Branden did not go over to ask questions. He was there to seek revenge.
From Paxton’s attitude, they could see Branden had all the evidence needed and was waiting for them to admit it.
Since that was the case, Rachael could only make her son admit it and minimize the damage caused to their family. Johnathan
had never expected the Duncans to have so much evidence and wanted him to go to prison.
He shoved off his mother’s hand and roared, “Mom, are you a fool not to notice Catherine is here to seek revenge? I have never
arranged for anyone to murder Branden. My target had always only been Catherine!”

Branden snorted and opened his eyes. He squinted his eyes and looked at them. His oppressive temperament was like the dark
clouds before the storm. It was depressing to look at him. He looked sinister and cold.
“Looks like you have admitted you paid someone to carry out a murder for you Mr. Johnathan?”
Then, he lifted his eyebrows and looked at Johnathan meaningfully. His gaze looked mysterious, challenging anyone to decipher
its intent. Since things turned out like this, Johnathan gave up.
“Yes. I planned this, but I never wanted to kill you. My target is that jinx, Catherine!”
Johnathan had always been ruthless and would never even listen to his parents. From the beginning to the end, he had reflected
on his mistake.
He felt embarrassed as he had been slapped by his parents and humiliated before so many outsiders and the woman he hated
the most.
“What have I done wrong? Catherine was the one who wanted me dead. I was getting back at her.”
Johnathan did not expect it to be such a coincidence that Branden happened to be with Catherine. The men Dayton employed
were thugs and would not recognize Branden.
If he knew Branden would also be there, he would never have arranged for them to attack Catherine. No one would dare to
offend Branden in Casier. He was not a fool. Why would he do something like that?
Catherine happened to end her first round of games and heard Johnathan screaming through her silent earphones.
She did not like explaining but would not let anyone accuse her either. She knew what Johnathan meant by saying that.
Catherine took off her earphones and lifted her head to look at Johnathan. Her calm and cold expression scared him a little.
Evan Johnathan did not know why he would feel fear when Catherine looked at him like that. It was natural for him to be afraid
when Branden glared at him.
Branden was a reputable man, and he had always had a domineering temperament. Meanwhile, Catherine was nothing to him.
Putting her phone aside, Catherine felt uncomfortable sitting like that. She adjusted her position and leaned against Branden’s
shoulder, making him her bolster.

After adjusting her position, she spoke in her usual lazy tone as she glanced at everyone casually, not taking anyone there
seriously.
“It has nothing to do with me. You are a fool to believe in what others tell you and have been made used by them. Don’t you
realize that?”
Johnathan heard Catherine’s words and was pissed off. “How could that have nothing to do with you? You did that. Catherine, do
you think you could get away with it? You are such a coward for refusing to admit what you have done! What a shame!”
Catherine scoffed as she looked at Johnathan. “I don’t need your praise. Johnathan, who do you think you are to condemn me?
“You can report it to the police if you have evidence.”
Johnathan thought of something and quickly tugged his father’s trousers. “Dad, show them the evidence you found. We can
report it to the police and make them arrest this jinx.”
Johnathan had been a fool all this while. To him, he thought everything would be settled with Catherine being arrested.
To keep herself safe, Catherine would have to let go of him. Then, he could get back at Catherine after everything was over.
Korbin was speechless by his son’s foolishness.
He could not understand why his son was such an idiot. He had indeed investigated that someone had done something to
Johnathan’s car, causing the accident.
But he had no proof that it had anything to do with Catherine. He would never let Catherine off if he had the evidence.
With Korbin’s character, he would have already reported to the police and gotten Catherine arrested long ago. It would help him
eliminate this jinx and have the Swann Corporation to himself.
With Johnathan causing this trouble, they had not only alarmed Catherine but also given her an opportunity to get back at them.
Catherine brought Branden to their place just to get Johnathan arrested. Johnathan was a fool and had offended Branden. In
Casier, no one would dare to provoke Branden. Korbin had no choice but to speak and try to turn the table to save his son.
“Johnathan, what nonsense are you talking about? How could you think of your sister like that and be blinded by other’s
instigation? How could you even try to murder your sister? You disappoint me!

“Don’t ever say you are my son!”
