All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 636 His Arrangement

Things at the lab wrapped up quicker than expected. Remembering Branden’s instructions before they parted ways, Catherine messaged him for him to pick her up.

It took about half an hour to get here from the apartment.

Shortly after sending the message, Catherine got a reply from Branden, which read, [I’m waiting at the door.]

Putting aside what she was working on, Catherine grabbed her coat and headed out.

Just as she stepped out, she spotted a man standing in the chilly wind.

She thought she might have to wait a while, but she didn’t expect that he had never left. Catherine walked right up to him. Seeing that, Branden began to take off his coat.

“No!” Catherine refused him outright. Seeing Branden frown, she explained, ” I’m not cold. We can get in the car right away.”

Seeing her insist, Branden didn’t push further.

He opened the car door for Catherine and guided her carefully. He was afraid that she might bump into something.

Once inside the car, Catherine felt bored and struck up a conversation with Branden.

“Why didn’t you head back? Aren’t you worried I’ll be busy until midnight?”

Catherine smiled faintly and cast a meaningful look at him.

When an experiment encounters problems, there’s no telling how much time it could take to fix the problem. Before Catherine found the problem in the experiment, she didn’t know how long it would take, let alone Branden.

Surprised by her rare initiative in asking, Branden looked at her confidently and said, “If an hour’s not enough, then two. If two aren’t enough, I’ll wait till dawn. Eventually, you’ll crack it, right?”

Catherine pursed her lips and nodded in agreement. “Makes sense!”

They exchanged a smile and looked at each other.
