All Her Secrets

After nearly an hour, Marshall finally managed to give Catherine and her group a
tour of the laboratory.
Marshall stopped and looked at Catherine with great interest, asking, How do you
like it?”
Upon hearing Marshall questioning her, Catherine responded earnestly with a
word as her evaluation. “Great!”
Marshall asked again, “Have you noticed anything that needs improvement or
areas that could be further enhanced?”
Besides them, there were a few remaining students in the lab. They were all staff
members of this laboratory and also Marshall’s students.
They had been following Marshall for many years but had never seen Marshall
be so polite and amiable toward anyone.
“Wow, this cute girl is really something!” they thought.
Catherine looked around and pointed at the machine being operated in front,
saying, “I feel like these devices are a bit outdated. Maybe we can get a new
batch of more advanced machines if we're going to work on a new project.”
When Catherine spoke up, the guy operating the machine immediately showed
his displeasure and even straight up rejected what she said.
“Hey, young lady, if you don’t know, please don’t talk nonsense. This is currently
the most advanced equipment domestically, with an accuracy of up to 20
nanometers. Do you understand these numbers?”
His tone sounded a bit stiff, and he didn’t seem particularly friendly.
Marshall was just standing there, watching the fire start to spread. He didn’t
seem to want to get involved at all.
As the laboratory leader, he recognized Catherine's abilities and recruited her.
Whether everyone in the laboratory could accept Catherine depended on
whether she had the ability or not.
Faced with such tough questioning, Catherine remained calm and composed.
“20 nanometers is very advanced, but the project that we are going to research
next is an issue that has not been successfully researched yet. In order to be
ahead of others and be at the forefront of the world, our equipment must also
keep up. Alton’s equipment accuracy has already reached 7 nanometers. How
can we compete with them using 20- nanometer equipment?”
Her gentle voice resonated powerfully, enveloping the entire laboratory space like
a heavy hammer pounding on everyone's heart.
Hearing Catherine's response, the guy who was talking earlier was left
dumbfounded.
Since nobody said anything, Catherine continued, “The equipment in Alton is 7
nanometers. That's public data. I've seen 5-nanometer equipment at Arbotte
Laboratory, and I believe that if Arbotte Laboratory can do it, then Alton can do it,
too.”
Hearing this news, everyone in the room, including Marshall, was absolutely
shocked.
He stared at Catherine with an astonished look and excitedly asked, ” You
actually went to Arbotte Laboratory?”
Catherine nodded and calmly said, Yeah!”
Amelia discovered that after Catherine said she had been to that laboratory, the
people present all looked at her with glistening eyes.
“What kind of laboratory is this? It's actually so powerful?” she thought.
Catherine's confident response made Marshall's heart race.
“5 nanometers. We are four times theirs. You're right. Relying on current
machines, we've already lost in terms of hardware if we want to be ahead of the
world.
“Catherine, the information you provided is very important. I'll report it to my
superior and see if there’s any way to improve the hardware conditions.”
Once the lab tour ended, Catherine proactively told Marshall that she wanted to
leave.
Marshall didn’t stop her but just reminded her to come to the lab after class every
day and get familiar with the lab’s operation with everyone before letting her go.
After leaving the lab, Amelia was planning to take Catherine to eat something.
But Catherine didn't feel like going. She wanted to head back to the dorm and
rest.
Branden would be back in the evening, and Catherine wanted to keep some
room in her stomach to enjoy the meal he cooked, which was much better than
the cafeteria food.
So, the two of them hurried back to the dormitory.
Just as they reached the dormitory building, Amelia excitedly grabbed
Catherine's hand, urgently pointing in the direction ahead.
When Catherine raised her eyes, she caught sight of that highly anticipated
figure.
“Wasn't he supposed to be back in the evening? How did he arrive in the
afternoon?” she wondered.
Seeing Catherine had noticed it, Amelia let go of her hand automatically.
Catherine approached the figure, unaware of how long the man had been
standing there.
Upstairs and downstairs, countless gazes had already fallen on him and his
surroundings. As Catherine approached, it was like a psychic connection.
Branden immediately sensed her presence.
Catherine walked toward him, and he approached Catherine as well, both
moving toward each other.
The moment they got closer, Branden couldn’t wait to hold Catherine’s hand.
Catherine was just like a regular girl, taking the initiative to strike up a
conversation with Branden.
“Wasn't it said that you would only be back at night?”
Branden’s eyes were full of smiles as he looked at her, and he asked leisurely, ”
Is this considered proactive care?”
Catherine raised an eyebrow and showed a hint of challenge in her delicate
eyes, saying, “If you think it is, then it is!”
Her words brought a delightful feeling to Branden, and all the exhaustion along
the way vanished in an instant.
“I finished things early, so I came back early,” he replied.
If Paxton were to hear this from
Branden, he would probably be so infuriated that he would drop dead on the
spot.
They were so busy that they didn’t even have time to use the bathroom in order
to make it back early.

It was still early before mealtime. Branden quickly prepared some fruits and
accompanied Catherine to rest.
Catherine was playing on her phone while Branden was holding his computer to
do his work.
From time to time, the two of them would have some verbal exchanges, just like
an ordinary couple coming home from work, feeling comfortable and at ease.
After finishing a game, Catherine put down her phone, grabbed Branden’s arm,
and sat up.
“I went to visit Professor Hartley's lab today.”
Once he heard her speak, Branden immediately put down the work in his hands
and patiently listened to what she had to say.
“Did you get into Marshall's lab?”

“Sure!” Branden nodded in agreement. As long as Catherine made the decision,
he would support it.
Speaking of Arbotte Laboratory, Branden thought of something else.
The Duncans had an extremely powerful network of information, enabling them
to be privy to many undisclosed pieces of information.
Branden received a message that had some connection with Catherine
yesterday.
“Have you been in touch with Zobber lately?”
“No, what happened to her?” Catherine looked at Branden with confusion.
She knew there was no way Branden would bring up that name for no reason.

Hearing the news, Catherine immediately stood up. “I'm gonna make a phone

She knew Zobber must be in trouble because she knew how reliable the
Duncans’ information was.
