All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 366 Apologies to Catherine
Catherine originally planned to put down her phone and take a break. Then, she received a message from Ronin.
[Catherine, Grayson just tweeted. Take a look!]
Upon seeing the message, Catherine opened Twitter. She didn’t have to search. Grayson’s tweet was already at the top of her
feed.
She clicked on it. Then, she saw Grayson’s tweet. Grayson’s Twitter handle was simple. It was just Grayson Clifford. Ten minutes
ago, he posted a long tweet with two pictures.
Grayson posted the tweet. “That year, we were both eight years old. Thank you for bringing me back to the real world.”
The first picture showed an adoption certificate with Vicente as the adoptive parent. The second picture featured two children.
The boy looked handsome, and the girl, though incredibly beautiful, had a hint of an awe- inspiring and dashing aura.
Grayson’s fans all knew Grayson didn’t have a family. From rags to riches, Grayson had achieved everything through his own
hard work, with no one’s help.
But what his fans didn’t know was that Catherine had adopted Grayson when he was a child. When Catherine was just a child
herself, she adopted Grayson.
Because she was too young to handle the formal adoption process, Vicente handled the adoption paperwork for Grayson, just
like he did for Ronin.
In Grayson’s view, there was no Grayson without Catherine.
Like Ronin, he called Catherine affectionately. Catherine had always been exceptionally intelligent, even as a child. Both of them
had grown up with Catherine.
Ronin had joined the family earlier. Ronin had been by Catherine’s side since he was five years old. It was hard for outsiders to
believe that when Catherine was a child, she had taken care of two children around her age.
But it was the truth. They were grateful to Catherine, and they cared for Catherine more than anyone else. They knew better than
anyone that they wouldn’t be where they were today without Catherine.

Grayson’s dedicated fans were moved to tears by Grayson’s Twitter post. In the comments section, fans were in deep
lamentation. They expressed their empathy for Grayson’s struggles.
They were especially sympathetic to Grayson, who, under pressure and threats from various online users, had decided to reveal
his past. Forcing himself to confront the pain from his past was such a cruel thing to do.
The fans made numerous comments. A user with the handle “Only Love Peerless Grayson” posted a comment. ” Wow. I can’t
believe Catherine was Peerless Grayson’s savior! No wonder Peerless Grayson is so good to her. They are childhood friends.
I’m in awe!
Another user with the handle “Lifetime Admiration” posted a comment. “This is heartbreaking. What did Peerless Grayson do to
deserve this?”
A user with the handle “Grayson’s National Fan Club President” posted a comment. “A few photos are supposed to prove
cheating? If you have evidence, show it! To push someone to this extent is ruthless! Someone who helped Peerless Grayson
when he was so young would never cheat over a minor competition!”
“What they said above is so true!”
The Twitter feed was in chaos. Some fans went on a frenzy to defend Grayson and Catherine after Grayson posted the tweet.
However, there were still those who felt that these posts didn’t prove that Grayson didn’t help Catherine cheat. Instead, it testified
to their close relationship.
After the celebrities and Grayson posted their tweets on Twitter, the official account of the competition finally joined in.
The official account of the SKD Intercollegiate Competition posted a tweet. “To ensure the fairness of the competition, the rules
of the event are all formulated by the event committee, and the selection of the cards is arranged personally by the event
chairman. Whether it’s event mentors or participants, no one has the opportunity to know in advance which card they will draw.”
Subsequently, two other mentors also retweeted the official Twitter post of the competition and confirmed this fact. As mentors,
they also had no opportunity to know in advance. Since none of the mentors had that chance, it was natural that Grayson had no
opportunity, either.
This proved that Catherine did not cheat. The fans finally had favorable evidence, and Grayson’s devoted supporters launched a
fierce counterattack.

Audrey’s fans believed that since Audrey and Catherine were sisters, it was not wrong for Audrey to cheer on Catherine in a
competition.
The hashtag “Apologies to Catherine” gained momentum and trended on social media. Many netizens started apologizing
voluntarily, but a small, stubborn faction resisted.
However, their resistance posed no real threat, as Grayson’s powerful fanbase exposed them one by one and forced them to
apologize to Catherine.
Catherine finished browsing her phone and was about to put it away.
Branden, who had gone to heat milk for her, suddenly returned and stared at her phone screen.
For some reason, Catherine had a nagging feeling of being caught red- handed.
She casually tossed her phone aside, but Branden picked it up again.
He stared at the screen for a while and lowered his gaze to Catherine.
In his deep eyes, he had a meaningful look as he watched Catherine.
After a long pause, Branden finally spoke in a voice with a hint of sorrow and concern, “We haven’t even taken a photo together.”
Catherine was genuinely taken aback, and then, it hit her.
Branden was feeling jealous.
She looked up and gazed intently at Branden before her with her beautiful eyes.
“So, you’re jealous?”
Branden didn’t say a word and maintained a stern expression. Catherine raised her hand and gently placed it on Branden’s
shoulder.
With a slight pull toward her, she brought Branden closer.
Her rosy lips met his thin lips with pinpoint accuracy. The kiss was brief, which left Branden with no chance to savor it.

Afterward, Catherine let go of him and gazed playfully at Branden. Her beautiful eyes were filled with mischief as she stared at
him.
“Still jealous now?”
She was so beautiful, and her gaze was so captivating.
It made Branden feel uncomfortable all over.
He knew it wasn’t the right time, so he had to bear it.
Even with strong self-control, he was enduring immense pain. He now understood that some people were destined to be his
lifelong nemesis. Noticing his change in complexion, Catherine didn’t realize the power of a simple kiss.
She purposely extended her hand and gently ran her fingers over his face. Then, she gently caressed it back and forth.
After that, with a mischievous tone, she asked, “So, are you still jealous?”
Branden’s deep eyes darkened instantly. Catherine was really playing with fire. He wasn’t sure if he should be impressed by her
trust in him or be annoyed by her boldness.
On the verge of exploding, Branden managed to hold back. He spoke in a hushed tone, “Get some rest. I have to go to work.”
After that, as he turned to leave, he heard the laughter behind him.
It sounded arrogant and satisfied.
Branden couldn’t help but smile wryly with affection.
He didn’t care more about that photo and the so-called childhood friends. He had gotten his girl right here in his arms. No one
could take her away.
If anyone dared to make a move, he would deal with them personally.
