Chapter 812 Don’t You Hate Me

“Mr. Duncan, there’s nothing much to do today. Why don’t we leave work early?” Paxton suggested in a low voice from the side.

Hearing this, Branden raised his head toward Paxton. “Why? Do you have anything to do?”

Seeing his misunderstanding, Paxton quickly shook his head. “No, no. I don’t have anything to do!”

Paxton thought to himself, “I’m just a single guy with no family and not even a girlfriend. I don’t have anything to do.

Branden used to be eager to finish work early to spend time with Catherine. But due to his argument with Catherine, he had been working overtime at the company every day until the end of the day these days.

It caused no one on the entire floor to dare to leave work, and everyone was suffering unbearably. There were a lot of complaints.

Since the morning, every employee who entered the office to report had gone out with a mournful face. The secretaries in the secretarial office could hardly bear it anymore and were coming to Paxton for help.

However, there was nothing Paxton could do. He was suffering every day, too.

He almost prayed to God to make Branden and Catherine reconcile quickly.

Seeing that Branden did not move, Paxton once again risked his life to suggest, “Mr. Duncan, today is the 14th. Aren’t you going to accompany Miss Swann?”

Branden paused for a moment, and his eyes fell on the main road outside the huge glass window. The road was bustling with cars. There seemed to be an unusually large number of vehicles there today.

“Arrange the car!” Branden ordered.

Paxton instantly smiled and went to arrange the car excitedly.

Paxton thought he could do anything as long as Branden and Catherine reconciled.

The black Bentley made its way to the front of the school slowly. Paxton parked the car and was ready to turn around to ask Branden if he should drive it in.

Just then, Paxton saw a familiar figure appear in front of him. His eyes lit up for a moment, and then he saw the man following Catherine. Paxton almost screamed in shock.

Paxton mentally exclaimed, “It’s over. “He wanted to turn around and avoid letting Branden see this scene, but it was too late.

“Stop!” Branden’s cold voice contained hidden anger, frightening Paxton so much that he shivered and braked instantly.

After the car stopped, Branden pushed the door and got out of the car directly.

Paxton followed closely behind, his heartbeat instantly accelerating.

Perhaps Branden’s aura was too powerful, Catherine and Rylan subconsciously looked toward the direction Branden was coming from.

They then saw Branden walking straight toward them.

Seeing Branden’s angry face, Rylan did not feel any fear in his heart. His seemingly calm eyes were filled with provocation.

He was waiting for now, so he would not let go of such a good opportunity. Catherine was a bit surprised when she saw Branden walk straight to her.

“What brings you here?” Catherine took the initiative to ask.

Her cold tone made Branden couldn’t help but want to get mad, but he held back. “Let’s go back together, shall we?

Catherine hadn’t been back to the apartment in two days. Branden wanted to take her back tonight.

Branden’s offer made Catherine frown slightly.

She already had an appointment with Marshall tonight to talk about the experiment, and even if she agreed to go back to the apartment, she would have to go back very late.

She was just about to explain when she heard Branden ask unhappily, “No?”

“I have things to do. I can’t go back now. You go back first,” Catherine said calmly.

Branden already had anger in his heart, but now that he heard Catherine’s words, his anger grew even more intense.

“Fine,” he said coldly and turned around to leave.

Seeing this, Paxton glanced at Catherine in embarrassment.

Catherine had an expressionless look on her face. Paxton felt a bit dissatisfied with Catherine when he saw she had no intention of making peace with Branden.

He knew Branden’s dedication to Catherine and Branden’s dedication to her was obvious to everyone.

Paxton was touched by Branden’s dedication to Catherine and he thought that even an outsider should be touched by it.

But now Catherine was not even willing to take the initiative to do something for Branden, which made Paxton a little disappointed.

With his disappointment in Catherine, Paxton followed Branden away.

Rylan witnessed all of this and felt a wave of triumphing in his heart.

He said, “Catherine, you should realize by now, right? Branden is just using you. You have to be careful. Maybe he’s playing a game with you now. As long as this experiment is ongoing, he won’t let you go!”

Rylan was giving Catherine a heads-up. He knew Branden would never give up on her so easily.

Catherine turned her head and her cold gaze fell on him. There was a harshness in her cold voice. “Have you finished your words?”

Rylan froze for a moment. “Catherine…

“If you’ve finished your words, get the hell out of here. Or else, don’t blame me for being rude.” After Catherine finished speaking, she turned around and left, not even giving Rylan an extra look.

Rylan wasn’t annoyed. Thinking that Branden was now more uncomfortable than him made him happy. Не hummed and left without pestering Catherine anymore.

Catherine returned to school and went straight to the lab.

Then she immersed herself in the experiment, completely ignoring what was happening outside.

The masked man hid for two days. After making sure that no one was following him, he carefully returned to the latest secret base. “Sir, I’m back!”

The man in a black robe sitting on the main seat saw the masked man looking disheveled, so he didn’t arrange for someone to kill him.

He had been arranging for someone to monitor the masked man these days secretly.

After replaceing the whereabouts of the masked man, he didn’t pick him up immediately but secretly monitored his every move.

Only after confirming that the masked man had not committed any acts of betrayal did the man in the black robe tell him the location of their latest base and allow him to return. “Since you’re back, rest for some days. Come back to me for your mission when you refresh.”

“Yes, sir,” the masked man replied respectfully.

The masked man first cleaned up properly and then found Ronin, who had been transferred and detained.

If it weren’t for the man in the black robe suddenly proposing to transfer Ronin that day, Ronin would probably have been saved now.

The masked man had thought about whether Ronin took the opportunity to expose the position of their new base, but he couldn’t replace any evidence.

The man in the black robe also investigated and found that it was Withal and Zobber who had inadvertently investigated their new base, and it had nothing to do with Ronin at all.

Ronin leaned back in a chair, playing games seriously with the gamepad in his hand. He teased the masked man with a relaxed tone. “Hey, where did you go? You disappear for a few days and reappear.”

The masked man didn’t say anything. He stood at the door watching Ronin’s every move, but there was no change in his expression.

Seeing that he didn’t respond, Ronin continued, “To be honest, I was worried about you. I don’t want you to die. People who do your job are very likely to be killed, right? You’re all taking your lives to make a living.”

Hearing Ronin’s words, the masked man laughed out coldly. “You were worried about me? Ronin, it’s too fake for you to say that.”

Ronin’s game was over. He put down the gamepad in his hand and looked at the masked man with a serious look in his eyes. “Isn’t it normal that I worry about you? You offer me food and drink, and I rely entirely on you here. If I don’t worry about you, who should I worry about?”

The masked man stared at Ronin in confusion, his voice mixed with uncertainty. “Ronin, don’t you hate me?”
