All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 736 Sleeping Beside Her

Late at night, the lights of the ward were turned off, leaving everything dim and the pathways barely visible.

An agile figure stealthily emerged within the ward and crept toward the bed. Before the intruder extended a hand, the person on the bed acted swiftly. The intruder was subdued completely with a gust of wind and a swift maneuver.

As the intruder attempted to resist, Catherine acted decisively and swiftly incapacitated the intruder’s hand with a forceful strike. The intruder was in so much pain that he grimaced and pleaded loudly, “Catherine, I swear I won’t do it again!”

With a firm grip, Catherine hoisted the intruder up and forcefully pushed him aside. The collision with the ceiling light switch instantly flooded the room with brightness from the previously dim space.

The intruder sat on the floor and clutched his sore arm. He stared intently at Catherine. “Catherine, aren’t you sick? With your current condition, even a special forces soldier won’t stand a chance against you.”

Catherine was expressionless as she stared at the intruder with her cold eyes. It sent shivers down the intruder’s spine.

The intruder asked, “Catherine, my arm’s busted. Isn’t this punishment enough?”

Catherine looked at him coldly and gestured dismissively. If it weren’t for the intruder’s years of allegiance, she would have taken him out.

This intruder was Wantells, one of the core members of the Hacker Alliance, akin to Withal and Zobber.
