All Her Secrets By Chestnut

If that classmate did not have the guts, he should not have come and annoyed him like so. Nobody had the guts, so why did they think that he was brave enough to do so?

It was a well-known fact that Catherine should not be disturbed while sleeping. He did not want to take this risk.

What was the worst that could happen? At most, they would be the team that was ranked last. Between offending Catherine and embarrassing themselves, Bryan would choose the latter option without hesitation.

Being last was a small matter, but he would be in big trouble if he offended Catherine! Ronin did not want to do anything, and Bryan was not gutsy enough to do anything.

In the end, everyone could only helplessly watch Catherine sleep openly in a venue where all eyes were on them. She was most definitely the only one like that.

Meanwhile, at the Duncan Corporation. Someone who should have been in a meeting with his executives was now sitting in front of a large screen and watching the National Literary and Art League with Triston. Triston could not help but grumble when he saw the host talking non- stop.

“Mr. Duncan, why is the host talking so much? She should hurry up and announce the start of the competition! Isn’t Kathy going to be competing today? I’m waiting to watch that!”

Bright and early in the morning, Yesenia had sent many messages in the group chat. She told them that Catherine was competing today in a nationwide competition and hoped everyone could tune in to support Catherine.

Initially, Triston thought that judging from how much Branden doted on Catherine, he would be at the scene to support Catherine.

Unexpectedly, Branden was in his office. Triston thought that if he had not rushed over and turned on the large monitor, Branden might not have even watched the live broadcast.

Seeing that Branden did not answer him, Triston could not resist adding, ” Mr. Duncan, why do I feel that you’re not concerned about this at all? If I didn’t come, you wouldn’t have watched the live broadcast?”

Even Paxton, standing at the side, felt that Triston was babbling too much, not to mention Branden.

“Why would Triston think that if he didn’t come, Mr. Duncan wouldn’t watch the live broadcast?” he thought.

Branden had already instructed him to cancel a very important meeting very early on. After that, he had been waiting for the competition to begin.

Triston was merely behaving like a smart alec. Triston wanted to say something else, but Branden glanced at him. Triston’s face turned ashen white in fear, and he hurriedly shut his mouth. He could offend anyone except for Branden!

The director switched the scene from the host to the audience and the waiting area. Although it was just a second, Branden still caught sight of that beautiful figure. Among all the competitors, she seemed so out of the ordinary.

Branden wanted to phone her but stopped himself. Since Catherine was resting, he decided not to disturb her. That way, she could have a good rest.

When Catherine set out this morning, Branden had personally sent her to the venue. Before she got out of the car, Branden specifically asked her if she wanted him to go with her. In the end, she rejected him without any hesitation.

Catherine was the only one who would reject him so promptly and arrogantly. He would listen to her since she did not want him to go.

Branden would only go if she told him to. Back to the competition venue. After giving the basic opening speech, the host introduced the competition’s judges.

There was not only a highly reputed and respected elderly senior in the arts industry but also a famous manager in the entertainment industry. In the end, the host also introduced a mysterious judge.

The host blinked her eyes and stared in fascination below the stage. “Come, let us welcome the dream man of millions of girls, Grayson Clifford!”

When they were promoting the show, the production team only mentioned that there would be a mysterious guest. Everyone guessed that that person would be Grayson. However, no one expected that Grayson would appear as a mentor and a judge.

This implied that Grayson, who never participated in any variety show, would be here from the preliminary rounds until the finals as a judge. This news resounded in everyone’s ears like a thunderclap. Everyone burst into an excited uproar.

Catherine was in deep sleep when she suddenly heard the environment become noisy. She opened her eyes in a daze.

“Is there an earthquake?” she murmured. Using his phone at the side, Ronin heard her words and answered, “No, it’s not an earthquake. They just announced that Grayson is a judge. Go ahead and sleep. When it’s our turn, I’ll wake you up.”

Catherine made a muffled sound of acknowledgment before turning her head and sleeping again.

The people around them, who were initially excited, heard Ronin and Catherine’s conversation. All of them stopped their actions. What kind of queer team was this? This seemed like it was made up of a mistress and her servant.

Why were they not the least bit excited about such astonishing news? If this continued, they felt nothing would affect Catherine’s sleep, not even if the sky fell!
