Chapter 439 Heartless
Catherine’s cold and stern attitude was unbearable for the Duncan trio. Francis stood frozen in place, staring at
Catherine with a puzzled expression.
Carlo was not as composed as Francis. Unable to tolerate Catherine’s indifference, he erupted in anger.
“Francis, let’s just withdraw from the competition and ignore this heartless woman.”
After expressing his thoughts, he felt that it was still not enough. When he thought about Catherine’s attitude, a
nameless fit of anger surged within him.
“You’re a heartless creature! If it wasn’t for our boss trying to please you, would he have suffered so much? Now
that he is in trouble, we just want to save him. We don’t even need your help. We just want you to let us go, but you
refuse. You hold a grudge against him and want him dead, don’t you?”
“Humph…” Catherine sneered. The look in her eyes was as sharp as a honed blade shooting toward Carlo.
“You know me well. You’re right. I want to torment him!”
For Carlo, Branden was not only his boss but also his hero, someone he admired.
Hearing his idol being insulted, Carlo was on the verge of exploding with rage. He knew that he couldn’t defeat
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCatherine, but he still wanted to give it a try, even if it meant risking his life.
Suddenly, Catherine’s phone buzzed in her pocket. She immediately stopped her sneer, put on a serious face, and
ordered Jon beside her, “Send them back to training. If they train passively, throw them into the water dungeon and
keep torturing them until they’re willing to train!”
After saying that, she turned around to leave, not even sparing a glance at the three of them.
Carlo wanted to catch up, but he was pulled back by Cory.
Although Cory was also angry, he was more level-headed than Carlo. He saw the bigger picture. As long as
Catherine didn’t agree, the three of them would never be able to withdraw from the competition.
They had to follow the rules and listen to Catherine’s commands.
If Catherine didn’t agree, no one would be able to leave. Carlo forcefully shook off Cory’s hand and looked at him
with a serious and angry expression.
“Why are you stopping me? Do you also agree with that lunatic’s decision? She wants to kill our boss. You’re not
going to do something about it? Can you bear to watch him being tortured by her like this?”
In the face of Carlo’s furious accusations, Cory sighed helplessly. ” Carlo, do you know what our boss did to her back
then…”
Before he could finish, Carlo interrupted him directly.
“I know our boss mistreated her back then, but we were on opposite sides at that time. We didn’t know who she
was. If our boss had lost, she wouldn’t have shown mercy to him, either.”
Carlo’s words made sense. Catherine was the type of person who sought revenge for the slightest grievance. She
would never let anyone who offended her get away with it. Most importantly, she hadn’t done anything to Branden
yet. It was Branden who was punishing himself. If he was willing to do this, he could only blame himself.
Francis decided not to sit idly by. ” Don’t forget who owns Scorpion Island. I’ll contact our immediate superior right
now. Our boss is the one in trouble this time. I refuse to believe that we can’t get out of here!”
The three of them unanimously agreed to let Francis make the arrangements and not rush out of the island
forcefully for now.
However, after Francis contacted their immediate superior, he was informed that Branden had given orders for the
entire island to follow Catherine’s instructions. As long as she didn’t agree, no one could leave here.
Everyone on the island was an elite, so it was impossible for the three of them to confront the entire island.
Francis decided to inform Paxton immediately and let him figure out a solution.
Upon receiving the news, Paxton hurried to find Catherine. He also thought that she had gone too far this time. In
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhis opinion, it was fine for her not to accept Branden’s apology. It was her personal decision. However, she
shouldn’t prevent others from saving him!
“You three focus on training. Leave this matter to me. I swear on my life that I will not let anything happen to our
boss!”
After saying that, Paxton hung up the phone. He didn’t have much time to waste. Besides dealing with his training,
his ultimate goal was to find Dr. Miracle to treat Branden.
Paxton hurriedly left the hospital to find Catherine. On the training ground, Catherine sat casually on the stairs,
holding her phone to her ear, listening to the incessant chatter on the other end of the line.
“Catherine, I heard you’ve been on Scorpion Island recently?”
“Yeah!”
Catherine didn’t deny it. Casier was Sean’s territory. She had suddenly disappeared for so many days. Sean would
definitely notice it. It wouldn’t be difficult for him to find out her whereabouts from Ronin.
Sean was also on their side, so there was no need to hide it from him.
“Catherine, you’re really something. By the way, is someone sick on Scorpion Island? The whole internet just
received a bounty posted on Scorpion Island, and the bonus offered is amazing. They say they’re looking for Dr.
Miracle. Do you know anything about it?”
