All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 350 Teaching You a Lesson
Oceanvile was not far from Casier, but Loyalty Academy had deep pockets and arranged a plane for the teams participating in
the semi-finals.
Branden arrived at Catherine’s house early in the morning. When Audrey was in a dazed state to open the door and tried hard to
open her eyes to send Catherine to the airport, she saw Branden’s tall and imposing figure.
Branden reached out his hand, and Audrey automatically handed the suitcase to him without thinking about it.
Audrey was hesitant about whether to say something when Catherine stumped out of her room, looking drowsy.
Catherine was not surprised to see Branden standing outside the house. The only thing she felt weird about was Branden’s good
spirits.
He had been dealing with the job last night when she was asleep. He got up earlier than she did and was vigorous and
energetic. There was no hint of sleepiness on his face. Seeing Audrey yawning constantly, Catherine could not help but frown.
Audrey insisted on getting up early and demanded to drive her to the airport, leaving no chance for Catherine to refuse.
Catherine looked askance at Audrey and pointed at Branden. “He will send me to the airport. Go back to sleep.”
Audrey would still insist on accompanying Catherine if it were not Branden but someone else. Since Branden was with
Catherine, Audrey didn’t need to be the third wheel.
Besides, Audrey was so sleepy. Audrey squinted at Catherine and waved at her. “Kathy, be careful. I will go back to sleep now.”
Catherine raised her brow and nodded casually. After Audrey returned to her room, Catherine left with Branden.
There was some distance from Catherine’s apartment to the airport. After they got into the car, Branden thoughtfully adjusted the
seat for Catherine and let her head rest on his shoulder.
“Get some sleep. I will wake you when we arrive.”
Catherine nodded in satisfaction. She was glad that Branden had arranged everything for her. Paxton was a steady driver. He
knew Catherine always slept in the backseat, so he would try to slow the speed every time he drove for Catherine.

Branden never objected to what Paxton did, even when the time on the road extended to double. After a few times, Paxton knew
what to do.
Catherine had a nice nap before they got to the airport. If it were not that Catherine had a flight to catch, Branden would not want
to wake Catherine up.
It was not that Branden could not use his private plane, but Catherine did not want to be treated specially, so Branden let her be
and adapted to her style.
The moment Branden’s palm touched Catherine lightly. Catherine opened her eyes. There was chill and wariness in her eyes on
her gorgeous face.
One could see the vigilance that only top fighters had from Catherine’s eyes. Branden never brought up Catherine’s past, nor did
he allow the Duncans to dig it up.
Everyone had their history. He would not check Catherine’s if she did not allow him to. When Catherine was wide awake, chill
and wariness began to fade. Catherine looked sideways at Branden and asked, “Are we there yet?”
“Yeah.” Branden eyed her softly and asked, “Do you want to rest longer or go in there now?”
If she wanted to rest some more time, Branden had his ways to delay her flight. There was nothing he could not do for Catherine.
Catherine checked the time. It was the right time to go in. She was not too early and needed to wait for the others, nor was she
too late and kept others waiting. Paxton was great at timing. The time they arrived was what Catherine wanted.
“Let’s go in.”
Catherine sat up straight and got out of the car. Paxton opened the car door and prepared to take the suitcase for Catherine, but
Branden took it. Branden would carry the suitcase for Catherine in person.
He held Catherine’s suitcase in one hand while holding Catherine’s hand in the other. The two were a perfect match and caught
many people’s eyes in the crowded airport terminal. Catherine was wearing a hat, but Branden did not. Only his face was
appealing enough to the passers-by.
Some people subconsciously took out their phones and wanted to snap him, but Branden cast a cold glance at the passer-by
who raised his phone the first.

That man was startled and dropped his phone to the ground, and the others shut down the idea of taking photos of Branden.
Branden was not only handsome but had a powerful vibe. He was so powerful that others would feel stressed. The passers-by
did not dare to provoke him. Catherine had sharp eyes and saw her teammates and teachers, so she stopped Branden.
“They are there. I will go to them myself.”
Branden did not insist on going with her. He only asked, “What time is your flight the day after tomorrow? I will pick you up.”
The semi-finals would only last for one day. Catherine would be there today and have the competition tomorrow, and she would
return to Casier on the third day. Branden wished he could fly to Oceanvile with Catherine, but he had important things to do in
Casier.
Catherine did not show her emotions and said, “I won’t be back with them. I asked for several days off from the school. There’s
something I need to do in Oceanvile.”
Branden’s brows drew together tightly after he heard what Catherine said. He asked reluctantly, “How many days do you need to
stay there?”
It did not matter that Catherine asked for leave, and he had no intention of prying on what Catherine wanted to do. All that
mattered to him was how long Catherine would be away from him. Catherine thought fast about her schedule before she gave
him the answer.
“At least a week.”
“A week?” Branden’s already furrowed brows deepened. After a moment of hesitation, Branden did not stop her. He said
concernedly, ” Call me anytime if you need anything.”
Catherine rarely agreed so readily. “I will.”
Then, she took her suitcase from Branden’s hand and walked toward her teammates. Branden watched her back retreating. She
did not even bother to wave goodbye at him. He suddenly felt a little sad.
What should he do?
She did not go far yet, but Branden already felt unhappy to part with her. He decided to handle things in Casier quickly and fly to
Oceanvile to be with Catherine. Her teammates saw Catherine heading to them and greeted her delightedly.

“Catherine is here!”
Ronin had been playing a mobile game. When he saw Catherine, he put his phone down and ran to her. He took over
Catherine’s suitcase and pulled out the chair for her.
“Catherine, why didn’t you let me pick you up this morning?”
Ronin texted Catherine and offered to pick her up, but Catherine refused. Ronin obeyed whatever Catherine said, so he did not
go to her place.
The others were accustomed to Ronin’s attention to Catherine. After all, Ronin had been around Catherine from the first day he
came to Class 8.
At first, some students thought Ronin fancied Catherine and wanted to pursue her. Later, even a blind person could tell that
Ronin merely saw and served Catherine as his superior. There was nothing romantic between them.
The two looked more like siblings, and of course, Ronin was a little younger than Catherine. Liana was wearing earphones,
seemingly immersed in her music. However, she was paying more attention to Catherine than anyone else.
She snorted coldly and disdainfully at Ronin’s gallantry toward Catherine. When Catherine falls from grace, Liana wondered if
those simps would still suck up to Catherine. Liana would wait and see.
Catherine arrived at the right time, and there was no time for them to chat because they were supposed to line up and board.
Bryan stood up and walked to Catherine. “Catherine, my seat is near yours. Let me go with you.”
Catherine said nothing but only lowered the brim of her hat to cover her little face, preventing the others from seeing her
expression.
It was weird that Ronin did not object. Usually, Ronin would be irritated when Bryan was playing up to Catherine. It was a miracle
when Ronin and Bryan stopped quarreling with each other even for one day.
No one could stop their quarrels. They would only have a truce when Catherine asked them to. Ronin did not react when Bryan
said his seat was next to Catherine’s. How was that not surprising?
The question was answered after they boarded the planeCatherine found her seat and sat down, and Bryan followed her. Just as
Bryan was about to sit, Ronin, behind Bryan, fastened his pace and took the lead to sit next to Catherine.

Bryan held back his rage and said to Ronin, “This is my seat. Get up!”
Ronin looked up and stared at Bryan smugly. “Who told you it’s your seat? Open your eyes and check your ticket carefully. Is this
your seat?”
Bryan took out his ticket and was about to show it to Ronin and slap him in the face. He did not expect that his seat was not
there but three rows behind Catherine’s. Bryan was shocked. He widened his eyes and glared at Ronin, “Brat, you played me?”
They were flying to Oceanvile together. How would Ronin let go of the chance to sit near Catherine?
Ronin had already hacked the airline system and switched seats with Bryan. It was just that Bryan was foolish enough not to
discover that.
Ronin raised an eyebrow and looked at Bryan gloatingly. “Kid, I’m teaching you a lesson about how dangerous the world is. Be
careful next time.”
