All Her Secrets

Recently, the business world in Loxton has been tumultuous, mysterious, and unpredictable.
The Breens' representative in Eskana, Edson, had joined forces with several major families to besiege the Duncan Corporation, aiming to destroy it completely.
Everyone was speculating on how long the Duncan Corporation could resist in the face of the fierce attack from powerful external capital.
The Breens even arrogantly declared that they would destroy the Duncan Corporation within three days.
The reason they dared to make such bold statements was that they had the capital to back it up. After all, unethical actions like this were not new for the Breens.
As a formidable top-tier capital force, the Breens were infamous overseas, showcasing the sinister nature of capitalists to the fullest.
Unfortunately, even the usually unbeatable Breens seemed to be facing a Waterloo this time. They had been besieging the Duncan Corporation for two days straight, with no successful attacks and a significant capital loss. This turn of events restored confidence in the Duncan Corporation among those who initially doubted it.
Triston was particularly curious about how Branden achieved this. Having known Branden for years, he was well aware of Branden's prowess, but he hadn't expected Branden to be this formidable.
Waiting until Catherine finished her meal, Branden leisurely wiped his hands with a napkin and tossed it aside. He then responded to Triston's question. "Because this is Eskana." Attempting to kill local businesses on Eskanese soil, disrupting the Eskanese market to serve their capital interests- while this might be possible in other countries, it was strictly prohibited in Eskana.
This simple statement stirred Triston's passion.
"Mr. Duncan, you're right. These damn foreigners want to meddle everywhere. We can't care about other places, but we can't let them get away with bullying us at our doorstep." Branden looked up at Triston, a faint smile in his deep eyes, a subtle hint of cunning discernible if one looked closely.
"Mr. Lambert, since you're so passionate, why not lendscapital to get things moving?" "Borrow money from me?" Triston hesitated.
Then, it dawned on him that he was being teased when he saw the amused expressions around him. "Mr. Duncan, I'm just concerned. Don't teaselike that." Branden's expression turned serious. " I'm not joking. I really need to borrow money." This time, even Aidan couldn't believe it. "Other things might be true, but being short of money is impossible for you, Mr. Duncan. How could you be short of money?" Aidan knew Branden still had a 50 percent stake in the Skyline Fund, holding absolute control. Skyline Fund was a substantial financial reservoir; being short on funds was out of the question.
Branden glanced at the two, a cold look passing over them.
Triston, who knew him well, couldn't help but express his confusion. "Are you serious?" he asked.
"Yes," Branden grunted.
Triston and Aidan exchanged glances, both skeptical about Branden being short on funds. They guessed this was part of Branden's strategy. Perhaps he couldn't use his capital at the moment.
After discussing it, they responded generously, with Triston speaking on behalf of both.
"How much do you need? Give us a figure, and we'll do our best to gather it. They knew Branden would require a substantial amount, and though the Lamberts and the Lanes were prominent families, they might not meet Branden's needs.
They were prepared to assist wholeheartedly. The true test of friendship lay in times of need. The three of them had a really deep friendship.
Branden calmly said, "Thanks." Aidan couldn't resist a playful comment, saying, "Well, I never thought I'd hear Mr. Duncan say ' thanks' in my lifetime. It's rare. This meal was worth it." Instantly, the atmosphere at the table lightened. Everyone laughed, and even the usually aloof Catherine had a smile on her face.
Zobber, however, didn't quite understand. She could see the strong bond between Catherine and Branden, and she wondered why the wealthy Catherine didn't help Branden.
As the chief consultant behind Skybow Group, Catherine's call for funds to help the Duncans would be more direct than that of the Lanes or the Lamberts.
Zobber was just about to say something when Withal, who was on the sidelines, saw through her intentions. Withal subtly kicked her under the table. Zobber turned to look at him and swallowed the words that were initially on her lips. She suppressed her curiosity and decided not to ask.
With everyone full and discussions concluded, they prepared to leave.
"She has class tomorrow, so we'll head out first," Branden said, standing up and pulling Catherine along.

Branden drove, stopping at a red light. In the silent car, his deep voice slowly
sounded. "Don't you want to know why I didn't borrow money from you?" The playful tone carried a hint of teasing, sounding more like a joke between lovers.
Branden sat in the driver's seat, and Catherine took the front passenger seat. She propped one hand on the car window and tilted her head to gaze at
Branden.
