Chapter 445 A Secret

As expected, Catherine’s next move was incredibly cruel, mercilessly torturing people without any mercy. There weren’t many people left to begin with, and she managed to torture them to the point where only eight people remained, including Branden.

However, this wasn’t the result of Catherine going easy on Branden. It was because of his overwhelming power. Despite suffering serious injuries, he was still able to stand out among this group of people and successfully survive.

Tomorrow would be the last day of training. As long as they could survive the final test tonight, they would be considered successful in their training.

No one knew how many more people Catherine was planning to eliminate. Or perhaps, none of them would be able to pass the test.

On the first day of entering the training camp, everyone thought Catherine was joking. After all, they were here to train. How could they all be eliminated?

But now, those who had said that Catherine was joking knew they were naïve. With her ruthlessness, it was very likely for them to be annihilated or even tortured to death. The more critical the situation became, the less they dared to relax.

After the morning training session ended, they had a two-hour break for lunch. As soon as Catherine announced the training pause, everyone immediately collapsed on the ground, causing a small dust storm.

However, there was an exception, Branden. From the moment Catherine announced the pause of training, he started approaching her.

Catherine turned and walked away, and he followed her closely from behind. Those present who had sharp eyes noticed that something was off between these two big shots, but no one dared to say anything.

In order to better complete the training, except for a few members of the Duncan team, the rest of the people were unaware of Catherine’s identity. They naturally had no idea about her relationship with Branden.

Even Jon was kept in the dark, so whenever he saw the two of them, he couldn’t help but feel strange. However, his lack of strength prevented him from privately discussing it with others.

Branden turned the corner, making sure no one could see them. Then, he quickened his pace and took two steps forward, grabbing Catherine’s hand.

Catherine made no attempt to struggle and allowed Branden to hold her hand. he looked at her with a smile, his eyes sparkling with tenderness. They looked like two iron-faced executioners on the training ground, but now they looked completely different.

“What would you like to eat for lunch? I’ll prepare it for you!”

The food in the training camp had one requirement, which was nutritional balance. As for the taste, it was indeed mediocre.

Catherine’s appetite had long been spoiled by Branden. Filling her stomach was not a problem, but making her feel like she was eating well was difficult.

Whenever Branden had the time, he would try to improve Catherine’s meals.

Catherine shook her head and refused Branden. “No need. I want to go to the cafeteria for lunch today.”

Seeing her refusal, Branden didn’t insist but cooperatively said, “Then, I’ll accompany you to the cafeteria for lunch!”

After a simple lunch in the cafeteria, Catherine said to Branden, “I’m full. I want to take a nap!”

Branden looked at her gently and nodded. “Okay!”

Catherine stood up and walked away without hesitation. To her surprise, Branden didn’t follow her but obediently went to take a nap.

Catherine thought he was just too tired, so she didn’t think much of it. After all, her training camp was known for its cruelty and was not a place where just anyone could easily graduate.

After returning to the dormitory, Catherine casually lay on the bed and took out her phone to play games. She didn’t need a nap. For her, the best way to relax was to do something entertaining. Like playing games!

Games could relax her entire nervous system. When her brain relaxed, her body could enter a state of rest that was similar to closing her eyes and sleeping.

When a round of the game ended, Catherine noticed some movement outside the door. She then threw her phone aside, stood up, and walked towards the door. Paxton stood at the door hesitating for a long time, unsure if he should knock on the door.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew behind him. Paxton instinctively turned around, only to be punched and sent flying the next second. His bandaged ribs would probably need medical treatment again.

Paxton held his chest, struggling to stand up. Due to the impact just now, his arm was dislocated, and now he couldn’t move it at all.

Catherine approached, glanced at him, and stretched her hand towards him. Paxton slowly lifted his injured arm and handed it to Catherine. After she took it, she quickly twisted it.

With a “snap,” the dislocated bone instantly returned to its original position. It happened so fast that Paxton didn’t even have time to see Catherine’s movements before his arm was completely restored.

Paxton moved his wrist and felt a bit sore, but it was much better than he expected. “Thank you, Miss Swann!” Paxton smiled sincerely.

Catherine looked at him coldly, her face showing indifference and her eyes filled with a strong warning. “Next time, don’t lurk around my door!”

“Lurk around?” Paxton murmured inwardly. “Me?”

Paxton wanted to explain, but thinking about Catherine’s temper, he silently shut his mouth. He almost forgot that Catherine had another identity, one of the top three assassins in the world. With his suspicious actions just now, she could have easily killed him. He was only slightly injured, and that was on the basis of his previous injuries, which indicated that she had shown extreme mercy.

Paxton was about to tell Catherine the purpose of his visit when he heard her coldly say, “Lead the way!”

Paxton was stunned and looked at Catherine in surprise.

The aura of dominance emanating from her was terrifying, and Paxton lowered his head in awe without saying a word. He silently led the way, not daring to ask any more questions, though he didn’t know how she had figured out the purpose of his visit. Did Thomas tell her?

Catherine followed Paxton all the way to the hospital. In fact, she knew exactly what the purpose of this visit was. The fact that Paxton came to find her so cautiously could only mean that it had something to do with Branden.

The top floor of the hospital had a huge treatment room, and from the outside, one could see the scene inside through the glass windows, but the inside couldn’t see the outside.

At this moment, Branden was fixed on a large circular contraption. It looked as if he was tied to a huge gyroscope, and as it kept rotating, the expression on Branden’s face became increasingly painful.

Thomas stood by, monitoring the various data on the screen. Seeing Catherine’s serious expression, Paxton lowered his head and explained to her in a low voice.

“In order to participate in your training camp, Boss asked Mr. Theo to use banned drugs on him. These drugs have significant side effects, but only in this way can the blood circulation in his body be accelerated, allowing the toxins to be quickly eliminated. Although his life is saved, it is as painful as being skinned and having tendons pulled apart. It’s unbearable for ordinary people.”

Saying this, Paxton thought, “It’s even more painful than what you experienced back then.”

Paxton only dared to silently say it in his mind, not daring to say it out loud.
