When Wantel entered the room, he walked slowly to Catherine and stopped in front of her. "Catherine, do you have any orders? Just tell me," he said.

"Yeah." Wantel nodded.
"Tell the Duncan Corporation that the Hacker Alliance has accepted their order and demands," Catherine instructed.

"Okay, Catherine, I see," Wantel said.
"Go out," Catherine said.

Branden and the others arrived late, appearing after dark. After everyone gathered, Zobber stood up excitedly to announce, "To celebrate Catherine's victory, how about we have a three-day trip before returning?" Instead of immediately agreeing, everyone looked at Catherine, who seemed to be deep in thought. There was a moment's delay before she responded to Zobber. "I agree!" With that, cheers erupted.
Ronin raised his hands and shouted, " Awesome, Catherine!" When Catherine saw everyone in good spirits, her face showed a faint smile.
Zobber arranged for a boat overnight. Catherine stood on the deck, her hair tousled by the sea breeze.
Suddenly, a warm sensation enveloped her as her body was surrounded by a soft towel. She turned her head to see Branden approaching, his long arms enveloping her tightly.
"Feeling cold?" he asked in a gentle voice.
Catherine instinctively leaned her head back, pressing it against his broad chest. "No. Are they still drinking?" she asked.

"Yeah," Branden hummed, resting his head on Catherine's shoulder, accompanying her to enjoy the refreshing sea breeze.
"Professor Hartley wantsto accompany him to an academien seminar before retorn to the country because because of the championship," Catherine said. Hearing this, Branden furrowed his brows. "Where to? For how long?" he asked.
"I'm going to Theisia for about three days," Catherine said.
"I'll accompany you," he offered.
"No need." Catherine decisively rejected Branden's proposal. "You've been in Alton for a while. Loxton needs you. I'll only be gone for three days." She looked into his eyes with determination.
Three days wasn't too long. Sensing attitude, Catherine's firandem decided to comply with her arrangement. "Alright, promise me, don't do anything risky," he said. Catherine leaned a bit closer to Branden, wearing a warm smile on her face, but she didn't speak. Branden took her silence as consent.
