All Her Secrets

Chapter 131

Branden made a move, but his actions shocked people even more. “If you’re tired and want to rest, I’lltake you downstairs!”

It was only one elevator ride away from upstairs to downstairs. But Branden said he would take herdownstairs! Everyone could tell that Branden really cared about the beautiful woman in front of him.

Watching Branden’s astonishing behavior on the side, Triston clicked his tongue secretly. How did henot know Branden had such a good temper?

Sure enough, it was a world where only good-looking people could be treated kindly, and he had nofairness. If one were nice to Catherine, she would also show them some respect.

Audrey didn’t want to leave, and Branden had just arrived, so it really wasn’t the right time to go. Sheadjusted her posture and leaned back in her chair without leaving. Seeing that she hadn’t left, Brandenalso put away the thought of leaving.

“Do you want something to drink?” The man’s low voice sounded lazy and hoarse. Catherine had littleinterest in alcohol. Audrey had already drunk a lot, so she didn’t plan to drink anymore.

“Soda!” Catherine answered faintly. Before Branden could do anything, Triston had already steppedforward. “I’ll serve it. I’m the host, at least. How can I let you guests serve yourself? I’ll do it!”

Carrying a bottle of cold beer for Branden and a soda for Catherine, Triston obediently stepped back.His service was thoughtful and considerate.

The apartment Triston bought was about 3,000 square feet, with all the walls in the middle beingknocked, and the oversized living room was enough for everyone to enjoy themselves.

Triston had spent a lot of money on purchasing a complete set of sound equipment during therenovation, ensuring that its sound effect was better than that of hotels.

However, although the lively room had been completely opened up, an invisible barrier in the middleseemed to separate the two sides of the room.

The left side was filled with singing, dancing, and bustling, while the right was quiet and indifferent.Branden sat beside Catherine, one drinking beer and the other drinking soda, and the others dared notto come up to interrupt them.

They were curious, but neither of them dared to step forward. After all, they didn’t want to lose theirlives. Neither Branden nor Catherine spoke. Branden had a cold temper and didn’t talk much.Catherine was even colder than him.

After a while, someone finally spoke up. Not surprisingly, the person who spoke was Branden. “Kathy,what game did you play with Bryan last time?” Catherine tilted her head. Her dark eyes met Branden’sgaze. “You want to play too?”

The man’s thin lips slightly raised, his gaze deep was serene, as if everything was so natural. Hehanded her his cell phone, saying, “Please download it for me!”

His phone’s screen lit up. Catherine was instantly attracted by the picture on his screen because sherecognized the image as the very picture she had shared in her WhatsApp moments.

Ordinary people would think that it was just a black picture, but only Catherine could tell the secret at aglance. Because the image was designed by herself, and there was a dark pattern in it that ordinarypeople couldn’t recognize.

Catherine just glanced at it and then moved her gaze away. After she helped Branden download thegame, she handed him his cell phone.

The internet speed of Branden’s phone was exceptionally fast. At a glance, it was clear that his phonehad been specially set up. She handed Branden his phone with the game downloaded. “Here you go!”novelbin

Although Branden had never played games, he knew the basics. After logging in, he saw Catherine’saccount inside his friend’s list. He raised his eyebrows and looked toward Catherine. “Let’s play it?”

Catherine was feeling bored. Since Branden wanted to play, she could accompany him to play. Withoutsaying a word, Catherine logged in.

Branden invited her to play together, so after she logged in, Branden formed a team with her. Seeingthat she was online, Branden was about to start the game. But he saw that someone had applied tojoin their team then.

After a quick glance, he realized that it was Bryan who wanted to join them. Branden clicked refusewithout even thinking.

Branden didn’t expect to find two strangers on their team when he started the game. He looked up atCatherine with surprised eyes. “Did you invite them?”

Catherine sneered. “You started with a team of four!”

All right, Branden felt like he was being taunted. He didn’t know the game had this kind of operation. Hefelt disdained and said, “The game developer isn’t smart. Why doesn’t it ask me how many teamplayers I needed for the game before I started?”

Branden was focused on his phone’s interface and didn’t see Catherine’s eyes gradually darken afterhe said that.

However, Catherine admitted that the problem raised by the man did exist. She needed to arrange forthe technical department to add an extra step to save some of the game idiots from not knowing how tooperate it.

The game had already started. Branden was not a tangled personality, so he naturally wouldn’t beentangled in such a small problem in front of him.

“Do we need to exit and start over?” he asked. Catherine didn’t care. Playing with Branden, a completenovice, might not be as good as playing with two other strangers anyway. She didn’t bother to quit!

“Go on!”

After she said that, Branden naturally had no intention of exiting.

Branden’s operating interface was still the most primitive one. He had only watched Catherine play itwithout having played the game himself.

When one of the other teammates invited him for a joint skydive, Branden didn’t click to accept ordecline. Only after seeing Catherine’s acceptance did he click to accept.

He didn’t realize that the other teammate had invited Catherine to follow him long before asking him.Because the other teammate saw Catherine was a girl from her account.

Catherine had always been lazy to operate before landing, so the system defaulted to follow herteammate.

These two other teammates knew each other. The intelligent system would usually match thecorresponding teammates according to each other’s performance. For example, Catherine andBranden were on their respective friend lists. They knew each other.

The teammates matched by the system would also be people who knew each other. Catherine andBranden were No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, and their two teammates were male and female. Thefemale was No. 3, and the male was No. 4.

Now, No. 4 was in charge of taking them skydiving. He picked a place with relatively abundant suppliesand few people.

Unfortunately, they were unlucky this time. Although they had chosen a safe place, quite a few teamswere landing there. Catherine swept a glance. There were at least four teams in this place.

Just after they landed, No. 3, the girl spoke. Her voice was filled with dislike. “Why did we match twopeople who don’t talk? Can you guys make it? If you get shot, don’t ask us to come to get you up!”

After hearing her complaint, No. 4 hurriedly consoled her, “Don’t be afraid. Don’t you still have me ifthey get attacked? I promise to take you to the end game.”

No. 3 said, “Our team can only rely on you. I have great faith in your marksmanship!” Letting the twoteammates boast each other up, Catherine picked up two guns. She threw one of them at Branden’sfeet.

She didn’t turn on her mike because it wasn’t needed. Branden was right beside her.

“Take the gun and stay close to me!” Just after she said those words, she and Branden heard agunshot coming, followed by the screams of their female teammate coming from inside theirheadphones, “Ahh…”
