Chapter 682 Finding It Out

The tension between the two sides was escalating, and it seemed like the situation was about to get out of control.

Suddenly, a cell phone rang, and Lorcan answered the call. Whatever the person on the other end said immediately changed Lorcan’s expression. His subordinates noticed something was off and couldn’t help but ask, “Sir, what’s going on?”

Lorcan didn’t respond but instead fixed his sharp gaze on Catherine. “You can leave Styre University, but you need to cooperate with our investigation. You can’t leave Loxton for the time being. Understand?”

The Duncans didn’t pay any attention to Lorcan’s words. They wouldn’t let anybody get the chance to bully Catherine.

Catherine tilted her chin and stared at Lorcan. She didn’t seem to be affected by his words at all.

Marshall, who had rushed over upon hearing the news, immediately approached Catherine. “Catherine, are you okay?”

Lorcan could tell that Marshall valued Catherine very much. He instantly understood the current situation and realized that only Marshall could persuade Catherine. He repeated what he had just said to Marshall.

Marshall looked at Catherine and said, ” I think it works. We need to investigate the matter thoroughly. It wasn’t us who did it, and no one has the right to slander us.”

Out of respect for Marshall, Catherine nodded slightly. Her agreement made Lorcan breathe a sigh of relief. He was genuinely worried just now. If Catherine hadn’t agreed, they wouldn’t have been able to do anything, and the situation would have once again fallen into a deadlock.

Lorcan stepped aside, making way. Branden wrapped his arm around Catherine’s waist and swaggered out.
