All Her Secrets

The black Bentley that had initially started its engine came to a stop. Ronin knew that he had already been discovered. He slowly
approached the black Bentley, his young face carrying a cold and gloomy expression that did not belong to his age. It was
solemn and intimidating.
He carried a backpack and walked with a rigid and straight posture. If one did not make eye contact with him, they would mistake
him for a studious and obedient young man. However, if one were to look into his clear black and white eyes, one would see a
piercingly cold gaze.
Paxton stopped the car, releasing his hands from the steering wheel. He gripped the door handle with one hand and was ready
to step out to engage in combat at any moment.
Branden slowly lowered the car window. His gaze was coldly fixed on the outside. Ronin was planning to provoke Branden and
show Branden how good he was at hitting where it hurt the most. However, Branden raised his eyebrow and said softly, “You
don’t need to stand guard!”
“Stand guard?
“Stand guard?” said Ronin inwardly. He could hardly contain his anger anymore. “I came to negotiate with this man, and this man
actually said he was on guard.
“Is he saying he’s a security guard?
“Man, that dude can really spit some venomous words,” he said inwardly. He knew that Catherine would attend a birthday
banquet in the evening and was worried that Catherine would not be accustomed to the food outside, so he specially wrapped up
some fruit pizza and brought it over. It was still steaming hot.
Instead of seeing Audrey’s car returning, he saw a flashy Bentley parked downstairs at Audrey’s apartment. When he saw
Audrey rushing out of the car, he knew that the playboy had begun his amorous pursuits once again.
With a face full of disdain, he originally planned to remind Catherine after she got out of the car. Surprisingly, after Audrey exited
the car, Catherine still hadn’t gotten off.
Through the car window, he saw the despicable man daringly extend his hand to pat his boss’ head as if petting a small pet.
“Oh my goodness, can this scumbag do such a thing? “I’m gonna chop off that bastard’s hands, and nobody can stop me,” he
thought.

After suppressing his inner anger with rationality, he finally rushed forward once Catherine exited the car. He was prepared to
teach that guy a lesson but was taken aback when the guy claimed he was on guard.
“How despicable and vulgar this man is!” thought Ronin. After a long while, he finally regained his composure. He gave Branden
a dismissive glance and looked at him with disdain. He snorted and said, “Speak up. Are you interested in my boss?”
Upon hearing this, Branden looked at him casually and said, “I thought Kathy had already told you that we were dating.”
After speaking, Branden stared at him, smiled slightly, leaned back slowly in his chair, and scanned Ronin with a casual gaze.
The gaze made Ronin feel despised.
“What does this guy mean?
“Is he showing off that he’s with the boss? Or is he indicating that my relationship with my boss isn’t close enough that she didn’t
tell me about something like this?
“No matter what, I cannot allow that despicable man to belittle me.
“And he’s still using such an intimate nickname as Kathy?
“I can’t take it anymore. I absolutely can’t,” he said inwardly. With a stiff neck and an angry expression, Ronin stared at Branden
and said, “Of course, I know all about my boss’ affairs. I am here to inspect you on her behalf and see if you are qualified
enough.
“Do you know how prestigious my boss is? She’s not someone that any ordinary man can get in touch with. Those who admire
her lined up from Casier to Paris, but she wouldn’t even spare a glance, understand?”
Ronin thought that he finally managed to regain some ground this time. To his surprise, Branden gave a slight smile with a
surprisingly gentle look in his eyes. “You’re absolutely right!” he agreed.
“What does he mean?” wondered Ronin. He didn’t quite catch the meaning behind Branden’s words before he heard Branden
say indifferently, “Kathy does have high standards. Otherwise, why would she be with me?”
Ronin was momentarily speechless, feeling a sense of unease about making sarcastic remarks.
“If I argue with the bastard now and show my disgust toward him, aren’t I saying that the boss has a bad taste and is interested
in such trash?

“No way! I can’t do it!
“My boss has always been wise, brave, and extraordinarily intelligent. It’s impossible for her to have a misjudgment,” he thought.
Ronin couldn’t find any reason to refute, so he sulked. In this round, Ronin suffered a complete defeat in his battle with Branden.
Although somewhat reluctant and inexplicably feeling like he was being pushed into a trap, Ronin had to admit that Branden
could indeed be considered outstanding.
He had heard of the power of the Duncans, and it was said that they were unrivaled in Casier. They possessed overwhelming
authority and were a force to be reckoned with.
At a young age, Branden had surpassed his uncles and older relatives, directly inheriting the position of head of the Duncans.
This demonstrated his incredible abilities.
However, for Ronin, no matter how powerful Branden was, as long as Branden couldn’t convince him, it didn’t matter. Even if the
great God himself appeared, he wouldn’t change his attitude.
“I must warn you that my boss is very honorable. If you are in a relationship with her, you must adhere to the principles of being a
good husband and obey the virtue of men. Do you understand?”
Sitting in the driver’s seat, Paxton almost had a stroke when he heard Ronin’s arrogant words. “Is this kid crazy or what? He
wants Mr. Duncan to obey the virtue of men!
“Does he even know the status of Mr. Duncan?
“Ridiculous!” he thought. As the party involved, Branden listened to Ronin’s words with a calm and elegant expression, showing
no hint of anger. Instead, he propped his chin up with one hand and looked at Ronin with an interested gaze.
“Share your thoughts!”
Ronin initially intended to humiliate Branden and turn the tables on him, but unexpectedly, Branden became interested in his
words.
“Since that’s how it is, I should just have a good chat with him,” thought Ronin.
“It’s super easy to be a good husband. All you have to do is be devoted to my boss while you’re together. You should treat her
with all your heart and never cheat on her, or else... I’ll...” “Chop off your penis” was what he wanted to say.

But he didn’t dare to say the second half of the sentence out loud. He hesitated briefly before emphasizing, ” Anyway, the
consequences are very serious, you know what I mean.”
Branden just gave a slight nod and replied with a simple word.
“Okay!”
Ronin did not argue with Branden. In his view, a man of Branden’s status would not make promises easily, so if he agreed to
something, he would follow through on it.
Regarding this matter, he still trusted Branden. Due to Branden’s prompt response, Ronin’s gaze toward him changed, at least
without the previous disdain and contempt.
However, he was not so easily convinced. After all, concerned his boss, who was more important than his life.
“Next is the virtue of men, which is also easy! “My boss has a bad temper. You must comply with her opinions, obey her
commands, and respect her decisions!
“As for the other requirements, I have not decided yet. Let’s see your performance and decide later on!”
After he spoke domineeringly, he fixed his gaze on Branden, awaiting his response. He didn’t believe that such a man, wielding
power and standing on a pedestal, would agree to such harsh conditions.
