All Her Secrets

Today, everyone who came to Class 8 was cautious. As soon as they entered the classroom, they felt a sense of intimidation
from a particular position at the back. Starting from Bryan, it radiated in a straight line and shadowed the whole classroom,
affecting everyone in it.
David was trembling in his seat, constantly praying in his heart. His prayer was not for anything special but for Catherine to arrive
quickly.
At this point, only Catherine could control Bryan. As long as she appeared, there would be hope for salvation.
When people heard footsteps approaching the door, their hopes were ignited. Unfortunately, when the owner of the footsteps
entered the classroom, they were disappointed. It wasn’t Catherine, but Ronin.
Bryan slowly lifted his head. His face turned utterly gloomy the moment he saw Ronin. He glared in Ronin’s direction. His cold
gaze seemed like he wanted to tear Ronin apart on the spot.
David and the other students felt the pressure and didn’t dare to look up, shrinking back and remaining silent. They had a hunch
that a crazy storm was about to hit. Now, all they could do was think about evading and protecting themselves if a fight broke out.
Ronin walked straight towards his seat, getting closer and closer. Suddenly...
Swoosh!
With its legs scraping against the floor, a chair came hurtling towards Ronin. He calmly lifted his foot, stopping the chair in its
tracks. At each end of the chair, there was a slender leg. They belonged to two different but equally handsome boys.
The classmates of Class 8 silently swallowed as they witnessed this scene. They would have applauded and cheered for Ronin’s
little stunt if it weren’t for Bryan’s prestige. “Oh my,” they exclaimed inwardly, “he’s so cool! 11
Ronin stood with his hands in his pockets, propping his foot up on the chair. His cold eyes stared straight at Bryan, exuding a
strong sense of arrogance. With his tongue pressed against his cheek, he had a roguish and charming appearance that would
make countless girls gasp.
“What’s wrong? You wanna fight me?”
Bryan’s heart was filled with anger, and he was thinking about where to vent it. It just so happened that Ronin appeared and
angered him. “If you want to fight me, then let’s do it. Do you think I’m afraid of you?”

A major battle was about to erupt, and everyone’s heart was in their throat. The bell rang, signaling the start of class. A graceful
figure appeared at the classroom door, changing the current situation.
“What are you doing?” A cold voice came, instantly making the tense atmosphere between the two dissipate. Everyone turned
their attention in the direction of the voice.
Catherine walked into the classroom, carrying her backpack in one hand. Her sharp eyes scanned Ronin and Bryan. Ronin was
delighted to see Catherine. ” Hey Boss, good morning! Have you had breakfast?”
Catherine nodded. Last night, she was still at Audrey’s house, and Audrey suddenly decided to wake up early and make
breakfast for her. In the end, however, all that appeared on the table was a glass of hot milk, slightly burnt toast, and a barely
recognizable fried egg. Although they didn’t look very appetizing, Catherine still finished them, considering it as a form of
encouragement for Audrey.
Ronin smiled happily upon seeing Catherine, but Bryan wasn’t as pleased. Bryan’s eyes were now filled with resentment and
grievances as he stared straight at Catherine.
“Boss!”
The way Bryan called Catherine was filled with extreme sadness, making him look like a sullen whiner. The intimidating
atmosphere turned the classroom into a pitiful battlefield. Everyone felt helpless in the face of this change, but they could be sure
that nothing significant would happen for the time being. After all, the “boss” had arrived. Who would dare to cause trouble?
Upon hearing Bryan’s cry, Catherine felt goosebumps all over her body. “It’s not even spring yet,” she thought, “so why is he
screeching like a cat in love?” Fortunately, she maintained her composure and calmly walked to her seat.
The chair Bryan had kicked out earlier was respectfully pushed back into place by Ronin. Then, Ronin invited Catherine to sit
down.
“Boss, have a seat, please!” Ronin said. After Catherine sat down, her gaze fell on Bryan beside her. She was not paying much
attention to him, but his gaze was like two shining light bulbs, making it hard for her to ignore him.
“What’s wrong?”
Bryan shook his head but then quickly nodded, realizing something was wrong. Catherine rested her cheek on her hand,
squinting at Bryan. “Just tell me.”

After thinking for a moment, Bryan spoke up. “Boss, why didn’t you invite me to join you for a barbecue last night?
After speaking, Bryan carefully observed Catherine’s reaction, afraid that she would think he was being clingy. He couldn’t help
but feel angry when he saw the pictures Triston and Aidan posted on their social media. They had both gone to the barbecue,
but Bryan wasn’t invited. That was not acceptable.
Hearing what Bryan said, Ronin couldn’t help but roll his eyes at the ceiling. “So, Bryan has been moody since morning because
of this?” he wondered. “What’s wrong with him? He looks like a little kid! It’s ridiculous!
Catherine was momentarily stunned by Bryan’s question. She turned and noticed him looking at her with a probing gaze, full of
caution and resentment, like a wounded rabbit.
“Weren’t you practicing guitar yesterday?” she asked.
Bryan had been devoting himself to practicing the guitar these days, neglecting sleep and food. He was naturally talented, and
he could do it very well with a little effort. But in his opinion, it was still not enough. He wanted to become the best in the shortest
time possible. He didn’t want to disappoint Catherine!
Hearing Catherine’s response, Bryan looked at her thoughtfully. “Boss, is that why you didn’t invite me?”
Catherine nodded gently. “It was a spontaneous decision last night, and you were busy, so I didn’t invite you. If you want, we can
go together next time!
Bryan had been upset and sleepless all night, but at this moment, he finally felt relieved. Now, he understood that Catherine
didn’t invite him because she was worried about him and didn’t want to interfere with his practice. Catherine was really good to
him. And she even promised to invite him next time. She was so considerate!
Bryan looked at Catherine with anticipation, his eyes shining like stars in the sky. “Boss, remember to call me next time!”
The speed of his emotional change surprised Catherine. She nodded earnestly and agreed. “Alright, I’ll make sure to invite you
next time we have a barbecue!”
Bryan’s face lit up with a smile as he stared at Catherine. Without thinking, he blurted out, “Boss, you’re so good to me!”
Catherine thought to herself, “Well, his IQ has been declining lately!”
