All Her Secrets

Chapter 938 Provoking Ronin
Upon receiving the message, Finn immediately reported the situation to Black Robe, who sneered and sarcastically remarked, "Those fools tried to capture Catherine? It's ridiculous!"
Finn also thought that the four men hadn't fully grasped Catherine's abilities. Although he had never faced off against Catherine, he knew her capabilities well.
"Do you need to find out the whereabouts of those four people, Boss?
"Finn inquired.
"No need!" Black Robe coldly rejected Finn's suggestion, not believing that Branden would sit by in such a significant matter.
Knowing Branden must have already arranged for someone to investigate, Black Robe decided to wait. If things went awry, it would implicate his people.
"I'm tired," Black Robe said.
"I take my leave." Finn left the secret room, still troubled by his doubts. For - some reason, he felt that his boss had been acting strangely lately, appearing quite frail. He didn't dare to ask, not wanting to violate the rules.
Not long after leaving the secret room, Finn ran into Ronin. It seemed that Ronin had sought him out specifically.
"Are you looking for me?" Finn raised an eyebrow, eyeing Ronin.
Ronin, with a serious and cautious expression, replied, "Yes, I am. I've already persuaded Zobber. When will Boss see us?"
Even now, Ronin needed Finn's assistance to meet Black Robe. He knew it was because Black Robe still didn't fully trust him. Black Robe was so suspicious, distrusting everyone.
"I'll inform Boss. Just wait for his summons," Finn assured.
Finn's indifferent attitude infuriated. Ronin. He initiated a fight, and to Finn's surprise, he found himself overpowered by Ronin. He looked at Ronin in disbelief. "How could this happen?"
Ronin smirked, his satisfaction evident in his smile. "Didn't expect to be subdued by me so easily, did you? Brat, I warn you. Don't act so arrogantly in front of me. I only made a few moves in front of Catherine, and she could easily spot my weaknesses, allowing me to effortlessly defeat you."
Furious and shocked, Finn realized Catherine's prowess was greater than he had imagined. She hadn't even witnessed his confrontation with Ronin, yet she could detect his vulnerabilities from Ronin's moves. How could she possess such extraordinary abilities?" The thought was chilling.
"Report this to Boss as soon as possible. You know Zobber's temper. I can't guarantee I'll be able to control her if she changes her mind. "After issuing his ultimatum, Ronin prepared to leave. His arrogant demeanor left Finn seething. In his eyes, Ronin was merely relying on Catherine's strength.
"You're despicable, Ronin. Catherine has been good to you. While she's being hunted, all you can think about is using her teachings against her and her allies. Is betrayal so urgent for you?" Finn scoffed.
Finn's words made Ronin pause and turn back to face him. "Hunted? What do you mean?" His intense gaze fixed on Finn, eager not to miss any expression on his face.
"Why should I tell you? Besides, haven't you already betrayed her? Why the sudden concern?"
Finn's sarcastic remark only fueled Ronin's anger. He stormed up to Finn, grabbed his collar, and lifted him up. "I may have betrayed Catherine, but that doesn't mean you can badmouth her. Tell me what happened, or I'll make you regret it!"
Upon realizing that Ronin was serious, Finn felt apprehensive and decided to inform him about the events of the evening. Ronin pushed him out of the way and left in a hurry.
Catherine was roused from her sleep by the incessant buzzing of her phone. Before she could reach for it, Branden took it away. His large hand gently caressed her back as he soothingly said, "It's okay. I'll handle this."
"Okay," Catherine grunted and turned back to sleep. Seeing her sound asleep, Branden left the room with her phone and returned the missed call.
"Catherine, I...”
"It's me."
When Ronin heard Branden's voice, his heart skipped a beat, and his nerves tensed. "Where's Catherine? Is she okay?"

"She's already asleep. If there's anything, I'll have her contact you tomorrow."
Branden's composed tone eased some of Ronin's anxiety. He knew how deeply Branden cared for her. If something were truly wrong, Branden wouldn't be so
calm.
"Well, I won't disturb her," Ronin said.
Branden had intended to end the call, but Ronin urgently insisted, "I need to talk
to you!"
"Speak," Branden coldly responded.

people still targeted her.
