All Her Secrets

Chapter 936 Don't Let Catherine Know
A simple plate of pasta turned out to be the most delicious meal Rylan had in recent times. He finished the last bite and then set the fork down.
Aaron sat beside him. When the plate was empty, he reached out to take it, but Rylan had already covered it with his hand.
"I'm full," Rylan said calmly.
Hearing this, Aaron couldn't help but complain, "You should eat more."
"It's enough," Rylan calmly replied, a faint smile appearing on his face. He didn't eat much on a regular basis, and if it weren't for his grandfather cooking today, he wouldn't have eaten at all, especially since he had already eaten before coming over. His claim of being hungry was solely to ease the escalating tension between them.
Aaron was known for his stubbornness, and this was the only way to keep him from getting too angry.
"It's getting late. I have to leave. See you next time, Grandpa!" Rylan said.
When Aaron heard that Rylan was leaving, his face darkened. Rylan had only been here for a short while, and now he was planning to leave.
Rylan felt increasingly uncomfortable. He wanted to spend more time with his grandfather, but he was worried that if he didn't leave soon, there might be trouble. Despite his reluctance to leave, he stood up. As he was about to leave the yard, Aaron called out, "Rylan!"
Rylan stopped, turned to look at Aaron, and gestured for him to go back and rest. As he turned away, a sharp pain struck his chest. He tried to endure it, hoping to make it out of the gate, but the pain overwhelmed him, and he collapsed on the ground.
Aaron had noticed something was wrong when he saw Rylan stumbling. The moment he saw him about to collapse, he immediately shouted and rushed over. "Rylan!"
In his final moments of consciousness, Rylan managed to utter a sentence." Don't let Catherine know!"
At the base, Ronin walked in with snacks he had just bought and tossed them onto Withal's lap. “Withal, don't you think something's strange?"
Withal, engrossed in his computer, glanced up at him upon hearing the question. "What's so strange?"
"Black Robe hasn't contacted me for days. I just rescued Zobber, and they should be eager to contact me and recruit Zobber. It's really strange that there's been no news at all!" Ronin was deeply puzzled.
Withal pondered carefully, unable to understand Black Robe's intentions. Ronin was right, but in times like this, they couldn't afford to speculate recklessly.
"Let's hold our ground and wait. I'm worried this might be a deliberate test from them. If we make too many moves, they'll become suspicious."
After some careful thought, Ronin agreed, "You're right. I'll take your advice."
"Stay put. I'll go find Catherine. It's been two days since I've seen her, and I miss her a lot!" Withal couldn't stand Ronin's infatuated look when he met Catherine, truly a loyal supporter of Catherine.
"Sure, hurry up and go!"
After bidding farewell to Withal, Ronin rode his motorcycle to the school. Finding Catherine was much easier now. All he had to do was visit the school laboratory, and he'd definitely find her there.
Catherine had just finished handling some tasks when she came out and saw Ronin waiting in the living room. " Looking for me?” she asked.
Upon seeing Catherine, Ronin's face lit up with a radiant smile. “Catherine, I brought your favorite pastries!"
Catherine glanced at the packaging, confirming that it was indeed her favorite brand. She happened to be a bit hungry, and the pastries arrived just in time. She didn't know what had gotten into her recently; she would frequently feel hungry. Previously, she would feel nauseous at the sight of food. But now, things were different. After eating the lunch arranged by Branden, she would feel hungry again around three or four in the afternoon. If she didn't eat something, she'd feel terrible.
"Come in!" she said.
Ronin followed Catherine into her office, placing the pastries on the table and pouring some rose liqueur for Catherine. "Catherine, it's ready to eat!
Catherine nodded slightly, finding the pastries on the table cute and appetizing.
A few minutes later, Ronin was surprised to see that Catherine hadn't even stopped. "Catherine, you..."
Seeing Ronin staring at her in astonishment, Catherine was a bit puzzled. "What's wrong?"

"Catherine, you like the pastries
today, don't you? You ate quite a lot!" He had gotten used to buying pastries for Catherine because she often missed regular meals due to work. Additionally, she had low blood sugar, and pastries quickly provided her with sugar while filling her up. However, she never ate too much. She preferred spicy New Orleans chicken wings over sweet food. Visit Novelxo.org to read the latest

Thanks to Ronin's reminder, Catherine realized she had overindulged. She had eaten more than usual, far exceeding her typical intake, and she hadn't even
noticed it.
"I didn't eat much in the afternoon, and now I'm a bit hungry. I didn't realize I had eaten so much all at once!" she explained.
Hearing Catherine say she hadn't eaten much in the afternoon, Ronin began to feel concerned. "Catherine, your health is more important than work; you need to
eat on time!"
"Okay." Catherine nodded, temporarily keeping Ronin in the dark. Based on Ronin's nature, once he found out, he would tell everyone around him.
"What did you come to see me about today?" Catherine asked.
Ronin expressed his confusion to Catherine. She happened to have something to
tell him. "I received information that a group of highly skilled assassins has recently arrived in Loxton. We don't know their target yet, so be extra cautious
during this time.
Keep an eye on that end. But remember, safety is the priority."

Ronin frowned. He understood that
these people wouldn't have come to Loxton for no reason: they must have come for a specific task. If they were targeting him, it would be troublesome. "Alright, Catherine, I'll be careful. You also need to be cautious." Visit Novelxo.org to read the latest chapter of this novel

Catherine wasn't worried about
herself. Although Branden hadn't
mentioned it, she had noticed several It, she O people around her recently. They bore no ill will towards her and were
likely arranged by Branden to protect her. Given her current situation, she needed to prioritize safety above all else. Visit Novelxo.org to read the latest chapter of this novel
