All Her Secrets

Chapter 754 Her Trouble Had Arrived
Just because Wantel had impressive combat strength didn't mean he could withstand so many people's attacks. Moreover, those attacking Wantel were his training partners whose strength was not inferior to his.
Wantel could only surrender and allow himself to be beaten by them. After enduring the assault, he lay on the ground, exhausted.
"Is that enough? Or should we throw a few more punches?" Ronin was about to attack again when Wantel immediately grabbed his fist. "Hey, man, we are good friends, right? You shouldn't do this."
Ronin rolled his eyes at him. "You took Catherine away without telling us. Did you treat us as your friends?"
"Exactly," Zobber chimed in.
Wantel protested loudly, looking at everyone with a pleading expression. " It's not my fault! It's Catherine's order. Who dares to defy her? Come on. Tell me. Who dares to disobey her orders?"
These questions made Ronin, who was the most arrogant among them, calm down. After all, any one of them would unquestionably obey Catherine's commands.
Seeing that they no longer intended to attack him, Wantel finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to take a rest, a shadow suddenly loomed over him. Looking up, he saw the grim- faced Branden standing in front of him. He knew Branden, but he hadn't expected Branden's aura to be so intimidating in a confrontation, causing his heart to race.
Branden didn't intend to waste time on Wantel. "Give me Florona's coordinates," he demanded.
Wantel was about to protest, but a gun was suddenly pressed against his forehead.
Everyone was shocked, sensing the murderous intent in Branden's eyes.
If Wantel said another word, Branden might actually pull the trigger and end his life with a single shot.
The atmosphere instantly turned thick with tension. Zobber had thought she was accustomed to it, but when Branden got serious, she realized how terrifying he truly was. She didn't dare to persuade him and certainly didn't want to witness anything happen to Wantel. "Wantel, stop the nonsense and spit it out. Mr. Duncan is doing this for the good of Catherine. It's too dangerous for her to go to Florona alone," she urged.
Wantel had no choice. He wasn't afraid of death, but he understood the reasoning behind Zobber's words. "I can provide the coordinates of Florona, but even with the coordinates, getting there is not an easy task. For so many years, only Catherine has been there," he said.
Hearing Wantel's blabbering, Paxton, who knew Branden well, knew that Branden's patience had reached its limit. He quickly persuaded, "Just say it. You don't have to bear the danger anyway."
Wantel thought he was being seen as a coward, so he quickly expressed his loyalty and then provided the coordinates. "I have already decided that if Catherine doesn't come back tomorrow, I will go to the island myself. Even if it means death, I choose to die with Catherine," he declared.
With the coordinates, Branden was ready to take action.
However, Zobber had another piece of information, and she nervously stopped Branden. "Mr. Duncan, just hear me out," she said.
Branden glanced at her, indicating for her to speak.
That glance made Zobber's heart skip a beat, and her legs couldn't help but tremble. "Mr. Duncan, Wantel has a device that can communicate with Catherine. Shouldn't we try to contact her before taking action?" she suggested. “Instead of continuously trying to contact her, it's better for Catherine to provide a shortcut so that we can find her in the shortest time," she added.
Even though they were willing to sacrifice themselves for Catherine, it was better to take a more efficient approach rather than make unnecessary sacrifices.
Paxton also felt that Zobber's words made sense. He could tell that Branden, who was usually rational, was getting a bit impulsive at this moment. After all, it was difficult for Branden to remain calm when it came to Catherine.
"Boss, I think Zobber has a point," Paxton said.
Seeing Zobber signaling to him, Wantel immediately understood what she meant. "I'll contact Catherine now. If she doesn't respond within half an hour, we'll go find her ourselves. It doesn't matter if we wait for another half an hour, right?" he proposed.
After a series of persuasions, Branden finally halted his steps. He decided to wait for another half an hour. If Catherine didn't respond after half an hour, even if she were in Hell, he would go and bring her back.
In Florona, preparations were underway for the annual flower appreciation event, attended only by the island's prominent figures.
Catherine was among the kitchen staff, helping Amos prepare the floral arrangements. Seeing that everyone in the kitchen was busy and not paying attention, Catherine whispered to Amos, "I just heard that the head chef has the list of attendees. I'm going to borrow it and take a look."
Amos initially planned to do it for Catherine, afraid that she would expose herself, but knowing her personality, he abandoned the idea. "Miss Swann, you must be careful," he warned.
"Alright," Catherine replied, carrying the prepared ingredients towards the head chef. "Chef, here are the ingredients you requested," she said.
The head chef, without even looking at Catherine, coldly replied, "Just put them there."

As Catherine approached, she
paused for a second, swiftly snatching the list from the head m chef's pocket with a quick flick of her
finger, using the slightest force she could. She then discreetly left, and as she headed towards the hallway, everyone assumed she was going to move some goods, paying her no mind. Visit Popsnovel.com to read

Once out of sight, Catherine opened the list. A total of 40 guests were invited to
the event. After memorizing the list at a glance, she stealthily returned it to its
place.

There were no familiar names, but
only two female guests with the surname " Bradley." Typically, citizens living on Flordna would change their
names, but most would retain their
original surnames. She made a mental note to pay attention to these two Bradley- named female guests later, hoping for some discovery. Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel

After packing up the things she
needed, Catherine was preparing to initiate the next phase of her plan when her electronic wristwatch afaint light. She accessed lightwatch m the hidden system and read the
ommitted
message from Wantel. Upon learning its contents, Catherine furrowed her brow. She knew she wouldn't be able to hide this from Branden for long, but she hadn't expected him to personally come looking for her. This time, he probably wouldn't let her off easily.
