All Her Secrets By Chestnut Chapter 58
Chapter 58 Crazy
Bryan had never expected to become friends with Catherine. He believed he didn’t deserve such an honor.
Catherine possessed a commanding personality, exceptional combat skills, and remarkable intelligence.
If she were an ordinary student, could she have taken a half-day leave and assumed the position of chairperson?
While Bryan didn’t even know which university he would attend, Catherine had already become the chairperson.
Not many people could reach such a position, so naturally, Bryan wanted to be by her side.
Catherine furrowed her brows slightly upon hearing Bryan’s words. She wasn’t a gang leader. Why would she need someone to
address her as “Boss”?
Ronin, that brat, often called her Boss, but she wasn’t interested in acquiring another “lackey. “If Ronin discovered that she was
recruiting someone like Bryan, who knew what trouble it would cause?
Thinking about the restless Ronin, Catherine was somewhat worried. She hesitated for a moment, lazily choosing not to
respond.
Bryan panicked at her reaction. He had already given up everything, his pride and dignity, just to become Catherine’s follower.
Everything would be fine as long as he could serve Catherine.
“Catherine, please accept me. There are many things to handle in school, and I can run errands for you. You don’t want too
many troubles, right?”
“Let me tell you, I may not excel at anything else, but I know how to make your life in school easier. I’m not boasting.”
David had planned to turn around and ask Bryan where they should go after school, and he was shocked to hear Bryan
shamelessly volunteering himself.
His eyes widened as if they were about to pop out. Was that still the Bryan he knew?
He couldn’t believe Bryan would make such an effort to become someone’s follower.
Catherine hesitated for a moment. She had to admit that Bryan had some insight into people. At the very least, he recognized
that she didn’t like trouble, which meant she was lazy.
She agreed to Bryan’s proposal since Ronin was not around. “Alright, that’ll do!”
After giving Bryan an answer, Catherine stood up and gracefully walked away from her seat.
It took Bryan a moment to react. He watched Catherine’s retreating figure and thought about
how much he admired her.
“Catherine is the coolest person in the world!” he muttered to himself.
As Bryan helped Catherine tidy up the table, he respectfully bid her farewell from behind.” Catherine, it was an honor! See you
tomorrow.”
Some classmates who hadn’t left the classroom almost stumbled upon hearing Bryan’s fawning words. They thought Bryan had
gone crazy. It was all because of Catherine.
Meanwhile, Liana was on her way back home. As soon as she returned from school, she sought out her mom.
With tears streaming down her face, she recounted the events of the day to Rachael. “Mom, I don’t deserve to be treated like
this. You have to stand up for me.”
Rachael was frustrated too. She gently patted Liana’s hand to offer comfort.
“My baby girl, I know you’ve been wronged. Catherine is a disaster, and she has caused enough trouble for me since she came
back.”
Liana wholeheartedly agreed with her mother’s words. She clung to her mother’s arm, acting like a child begging for a toy.
“Mommy, can we send her away? I don’t want to see her anymore. Let’s send this jinx back to the countryside.”
Liana believed that once Catherine disappeared, everything would return to normal, and she could go back to her previous life.
Rachael also wanted Catherine to leave. However, before returning home, she had discovered that the jinx had become the
chairperson. She even tried to seek confirmation from Korbin, but he had asked her to leave his office.
Korbin advised her to endure for three months to avoid conflicts with Catherine.
After three months, he promised to send Catherine back to the countryside for good and
ensure she would never return.
Korbin repeatedly warned Rachael not to stir up trouble at this time.
He suspected that there were others behind Catherine, and she was merely a pawn in a bigger game. Otherwise, she wouldn’t
be able to threaten so many people.
Though Catherine was now the chairperson of the Swann Corporation, Korbin believed she was just a minor character. If he sent
her back to the countryside, left her to starve, or even harmed her, rumors would spread. The public would side with her, which
would be detrimental to the Swann Corporation.
In order to protect the assets of the Swann Corporation, Rachael wanted Liana to endure for the time being. She tried to analyze
the situation with Liana. Unfortunately, Liana couldn’t understand and focused solely on her anger toward Catherine.
“Mom, you’ve changed. You don’t want to help me anymore!”
Rachael looked at her daughter, who bore a resemblance to her. However, she felt rather
Liana may have looked like her, but how could she be so clueless?
upset.
“Liana, listen to me. This is a critical moment. It’s best for you not to act out. I promise you, I won’t let anyone hurt you.”
After saying that, Rachael stood up and paid no further attention to Liana.
She was going to have dinner with other socialites. Socializing with the upper class was more important than comforting her
daughter in this moment.
She gave Liana some time to contemplate. If Liana couldn’t grasp the situation, then she didn’t deserve to be her daughter.
Once Rachael left, Liana couldn’t contain her anger any longer.
She swept away everything around her and smashed it forcefully onto the floor.
Her fierce gaze locked onto the mess before her, burning with intense anger. Her fingers turned white and contorted after her
violent outburst.
She had reached her limit. Catherine had changed everything.
Even her mother no longer loved her as much, and she was expected to tolerate Catherine.
How much more could she endure?
Hadn’t she been humiliated enough?
It was all Catherine. It was all her fault. Liana was determined to make Catherine pay the price.
She continued to dwell on ways to exact revenge.
Tuesday arrived quickly, and exams were just a routine part of school life.
However, today’s exam held special significance for the students of Class 8.
Class 8 had a significant wager riding on this exam. To prevent cheating, the teachers had arranged for an empty classroom and
divided the students into two separate exam rooms.
Each desk was positioned one meter apart, ensuring that it was impossible to glance at others’
answers.
Intentionally, Catherine and Bryan were placed in different classes. Furthermore, the math teacher had volunteered to be the
proctor.
Everyone could see that these arrangements were specifically targeting Catherine, and there was a prevailing belief that she
would be expelled from the school.
Upon hearing about the exam rules, Bryan grew highly anxious and sought out Catherine.
Boss, don’t submit your paper too early. Try to delay until the last possible moment. After each exam, I’ll quickly approach you
while David distracts the teacher. I’ll pass you the answers, and all you need to do is copy them. Understand?” he whispered to
her.
Catherine raised an eyebrow, meeting his gaze without uttering a word. Observing her nonchalant demeanor, Bryan grew even
more concerned.
“Boss, I know you prefer to rely on your own abilities and would rather lose than cheat. But please, heed my advice. The math
teacher has set her sights on you. Why should we play into her hands?”
“Trust me. If we follow my plan, everything will be fine.”
Bryan wanted to offer more guidance, but seeing Catherine’s apparent indifference, he realized he was running out of time. The
school bell rang at that moment.
Bryan had to return to his exam room, needing every second available. He emphasized to Catherine repeatedly, “Boss, I’m
leaving now. You must follow my instructions, alright?”
Catherine lazily looked up, her drowsy eyes giving off an air of indifference, and watched Bryan rush back to his exam room.
She remained as stunning as ever, her lovely face adorned with a faint hint of amusement at the corner of her lips.
She was sure she wouldn’t lose.
Haha!
