Chapter 804 Catherine’s Family

Branden glanced at his phone. It was already 6 PM, and there was no sign of any message on his personal phone.

He didn’t want to wait any longer and decided to head to the school directly. Half an hour later, Branden arrived at Catherine’s school in his car.

“Mr. Duncan, should I drive in?” Paxton asked.

“No need.” Branden opened the car door, got out, and asked Paxton to stop the car on the side of the road. He walked into the school alone.

As he reached the bottom of the laboratory building, he coincidentally encountered Marshall coming out. Branden greeted him, considering Marshall was Catherine’s mentor.

“Looking for Catherine?” Marshall smiled kindly.

Branden nodded, and Marshall gestured to him. “Come on, I’ll take you in. When I left the lab, her lights were still on. She should be inside.”

Marshall knew Catherine always left her phone in a drawer when she was in the lab. Unless she checked her phone, it was not easy for others to find her.

Marshall admired Catherine’s dedication to her work. He believed such qualities were essential for someone in research.

Guided by Marshall, Branden entered the building. As they passed the security office, Marshall waved at the security personnel when they were about to stand up. “No need to bother. This is Catherine’s family. I’ll take him up.”

With Marshall’s guarantee, the security didn’t approach, letting them in.

“Catherine’s family,” Branden thought and accepted the new title calmly, and his expression suggested he was quite satisfied.
