All Her Secrets

Chapter 484 A Carefully Designed Game

The chief attendant’s eyes lit up unconsciously after hearing the conclusion Catherine had reached.

Catherine did not use any instruments to test. Based on her observation of the corpse with only her

eyes, she was able to give the same conclusion as the one prescribed by the most brilliant forensic

experts in the royal family.

This was too impressive.

The chief attendant nodded silently, affirming Catherine’s conclusion.

“Dr. Sugar, according to the joint judgment provided by the forensic bureau, it is currently determined

that Bert died of heart failure!”

Catherine said no more and continued to observe the body. Suddenly, a small pinhole on Bert’s neck

caught Catherine’s attention.

This small pinhole did not stand out on Bert’s body. There were too many scars on his body, and the

pinholes of all sizes were dense on his body.

There were those left from treatments and those left from experiments to determine the disease. No

one knew what the pinhole on his neck was for!

Catherine looked at that pinhole for a while. She did not attract anyone else’s attention to that pinhole

when she looked at it. After examining Bert’s body, Catherine took off her gloves and threw them in the

recycling bin on the side.

She and her group did not leave the palace immediately. The palace only provided the entrance

passage, but not the exit passage for the time being.

The chief attendant did not want to snub Catherine, so he arranged for them to take a night tour inside

the palace.

Even if only part of the palace were open, it would still take half a day to complete a tour. Catherine

was not interested in wandering around all the time. Her physical strength was not for walking. After

casually strolling around the back garden, Catherine followed the crowd back to the mausoleum.

Noticing that Catherine’s gaze was fixed on the recycling bin in front of her, Branden inquired with

concern, ” What’s wrong?”

Catherine said faintly, “The gloves I threw away are missing!”

Paxton glanced at the recycling bin. There was a pile of white gloves thrown together, and it was

impossible for him to tell which pair Catherine had just used. He admired Catherine for being able to tell

the difference.

“Maybe they were put away by the servants! There are so many gloves, and you may misrecognize

them!”

“It’s impossible!” Catherine answered with a firm tone. Everything she used was specially prepared by

Ronin. Even her gloves were customized by Ronin with special symbols on them.

As for Paxton’s comment about the gloves being taken away by the servants was possible, but

Catherine dismissed it the next moment.

Because all the other gloves were still there, only the pair she used disappeared.

The servants could not just take away her gloves alone, right?

Catherine’s expression was serious. Branden trusted Catherine’s judgment.

He swept a glance toward Paxton.

Paxton dared not hesitate. “Mr. Duncan, I will check it out right now!”

The missed pair of white gloves were now being carefully placed on a dark rosewood table deep in the

palace.novelbin

The person placing them was observing them with an extremely admiring look in his eyes. It was the

first time the servant who brought the gloves there saw Prince Harry showed such a dedicated and

serious gaze.

Perhaps the servant’s gaze was too persistent, and it caused Harry to suddenly look up. Harry’s sharp

eyes were fixed on the servant.

The servant was so frightened that he immediately knelt. He was trembling all over and couldn’t even

speak.

His slightly trembling appearance made Harry burst out laughing uncontrollably. He lifted the servant’s

chin with his toe slowly, forcing him to lift his head.

“Jesse, don’t be afraid. I am not going to put my hands on you. All you need to do is to keep an eye on

Dr. Sugar for me. Report to me if there is any news. Got it?”

Jesse nodded in a hurry. He was afraid the prince would kill him if he nodded a second late.

“Please don’t worry. I will do my best to serve you!”

“Okay, I let you go!”

After getting Harry’s order, Jesse fled the place as soon as possible. He only felt a strong sense of

oppression when he was by Harry’s side. That feeling made him feel as terrifying as if he was in hell.

Jesse’s fleeing figure made Harry’s mouth outline a malicious sneer. In a low voice, he slowly cursed,

“Useless lackey!”

After cursing Jesse, his gaze once again fell onto the pair of white gloves. Harry picked up the white

gloves and sniffed the fragrance on them affectionately. He had finally found Dr. Sugar after all his

efforts.

He should think carefully about how he should appear in front of Dr. Sugar in order to attract her

attention.

More than half an hour later, Catherine and the others got permission from the palace to leave the

palace. Just then, Paxton returned. Withal was responsible for driving. Paxton sat in the passenger

seat and reported the situation.

“Mr. Duncan, I’ve checked the surveillance. Someone should have picked up Miss Swann’s gloves.

This person is especially familiar with the palace, and none of the surveillance cameras captured his

face. He was wearing the clothes of a palace servant, so it was a bit difficult to track him down. I’ve

strengthened my manpower to continue tracking him down!”

Without waiting for Branden to respond, Catherine gave her decision in a cold voice. “There is no need

to continue tracing!”

Paxton looked at her in surprise. He did not understand Catherine’s purpose.

At first, he thought Catherine was making a big deal out of it. It was only a pair of gloves that were

missing, and it was entirely possible that Catherine was mistaken.

But later, Branden gave him the order, and he had to check it out.

When he arranged for an elite squad to infiltrate the palace’s surveillance system and check the

surveillance equipment, he was once again shocked by Catherine’s sensitivity.

Unexpectedly, the matter of the gloves was really done by someone on purpose. Although the other

party did it cautiously, under their careful investigation, they still found clues.

Paxton had been following Branden for many years and had always been cautious, He would not let go

of any details.

Although it was only a pair of gloves that were missing, it had already aroused Paxton’s inner alarm.

This was too unusual.

He was ready to transfer manpower to conduct a full investigation.

However, Catherine refused so lightly.

Paxton could not guess what Catherine was thinking and could only fall his gaze on Branden. He would

do what Branden asked him to do.

Branden looked at Catherine calmly. He did not comment on the decision she made.

Facing the curiosity of the crowd, surprisingly, Catherine was in the mood to give them an explanation.

“Just let it be! When it’s time for him to appear, he’ll appear, right?”

That person would even secretly take her gloves, so he would inevitably try to appear in front of her by

all means. Since that was the case, why should they bother looking for that person?

They might as well just wait peacefully for the other party to show up. When it was time for him to

appear, he would appear!

Branden held Catherine’s small hand and gently kneaded it. Catherine’s skin was especially delicate,

and her hands were soft and smooth to the touch. While playing with Catherine’s hand, Branden

thought about the chaotic situation they were facing.

Initially, he thought that their trip to Ravenloth was simply to fulfill a mission, but now it seemed that this

mission was somewhat like a carefully designed game.

If this game was really aimed at Catherine…

Inside the dimly lit car, the man’s deep eyes suddenly darkened, and the darkness in his eyes was

bottomless.
