All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 427 Please Let Me Do It

After Paxton was gone, Catherine looked at the time. It was only half an hour left. She estimated Branden must be exhausted, so she got up and headed to the training ground.

Just as she reached the training ground entrance, Paxton stopped her. “Miss Swann, could I trouble you for one more thing? Come with me, please.

“What do you want?” Catherine stared at him with doubt. Paxton kept his head down and avoided meeting Catherine’s eyes. “Miss Swann, you only need to follow me.”

Catherine walked behind Paxton for some time and came to a halt. Paxton noticed and looked over his shoulder.

He saw Catherine fold her arms before her chest with a grim look. Her eyes seemed harsh and piercing, almost scared Paxton out of his wits.

“Aren’t you gonna tell me the truth?” said Catherine with a commanding vibe. Paxton did not know what he had done wrong to expose himself, but he knew he could hide it from Catherine no more. He could only come clean.

“It’s Branden’s order. He doesn’t want you to be at the training ground. He wants to complete the challenge by himself.”

Speaking of which, Paxton felt aggrieved. When he was back at the training ground, Branden had given him a strict order to stop Catherine from returning.

Branden did not want Catherine to end the task in advance.

Catherine turned around to head back to the training ground, but Paxton strode in front of her and blocked her way.

Catherine glared at Paxton, and the latter subconsciously retreated a few steps. Watching her domineering back, Paxton muttered, “Branden, this is not my fault. She’s too powerful. I dared not say no.”

Catherine was indeed, as Paxton said, powerful. When she returned to the training ground, the fight was not over.
