Chapter 384 Here He Is
Catherine didn’t bother with the two of them and just let Randolph kick them out. After Cory and Carlo left, Randolph quickly apologized to Catherine, “Mrs. Swann, it’s all my fault. I didn’t manage them well!”
Catherine was indifferent to the matter and didn’t think it was Randolph’s fault. “It’s alright. Give me the research report. I will let you know once I have studied it thoroughly.”
“Dr. Dunn, keep an eye on the two guys when you have some free time.”
Randolph didn’t dare hesitate even a little at Catherine’s order.
“Rest assured, Mrs. Swann!”
After seeing off Randolph, Catherine gave a call to Withal.
Withal called her just now, but she did not answer it.
“Withal, what’s the matter?”
“Catherine, I found out that Red Star is connected to 417 Laboratory, and a group of members from Red Star went to 417 Laboratory recently,” replied Withal.
“417 Laboratory?” thought Catherine. She furrowed her brows slightly. She was well aware that this laboratory was as renowned as Arbotte Laboratory.
The two laboratories were similar in many research directions, but they didn’t know each other very well. After all, the projects they studied were top secret.
The chief of Red Star once tricked her. It was the first time in her life that she had been cheated by someone.
She swore to find that bastard and pay him back double, making him feel the torture he caused.
Unexpectedly, the other party’s whereabouts were so elusive that even she couldn’t find them. Furthermore, under her continuous investigation, she discovered that Red Star was even more massive than she had imagined.
Now, 417 Laboratory was also implicated. She vaguely felt a greater force might be behind Red Star, which was the truly terrifying existence.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter a moment of silence, Catherine responded to Withal.
“Keep investigating, and be careful!”
“Catherine, rest assured. I’ll have an investigation and won’t do anything reckless!” Withal said with cheerful laughter.
“This damn Red Star actually dared to mess with Catherine.
“When I find them, I’m gonna kill their chief and bring his head for Catherine to kick as a ball,” thought he. Just after Catherine hung up Withal’s call, a call from Branden came in.
Originally, the two had always communicated through video calls. However, Branden had been busy with official matters these past few days, so they could only communicate through phone calls.
Branden’s magnetic and gentle voice could be heard on the phone as soon as the phone was picked up. “Are you busy?”
“Just finished!” Catherine speculated that Branden had probably called her earlier but didn’t answer because she was on the phone with Withal.
“Same with me here,” replied Branden. Catherine could discern the pleasure in Branden’s voice. In the next second, she sussed out the man’s little scheme.
“I may need a few more days,” said she.
Initially, it was planned for three days. But if the people from Asmein came, she had to take care of Randolph and the people in the laboratory, so she might not be able to return so soon.
“How about you come to me instead?” added Catherine. Branden also had such an intention. That was why he called Catherine. ”
Alright, I will come to you tonight!”
Carlo was sitting at the dining table inside the base cafeteria, seemingly on the brink of madness. He had been staring at Randolph with wide eyes since Randolph found them at noon.
Randolph followed them the entire time, never taking his eyes off them no matter where they went. If it were someone else, Carlo would have taken violence long ago.
But Dr. Dunn was a top scientist in the country and an old man with gray hair. How could Carlo hurt such a man?
After ten minutes, Carlo could no longer bear it.
“Dear Dr. Dunn, could you please kindly stop staring at us like that? Your creepy gaze is freaking us out!”
“Hmph!” Randolph snorted coldly toward Carlo, his face full of arrogance as he declared, “No, I have to keep an eye on you two to prevent you from breaking the rules again!”
Unable to convince Randolph, Carlo chose to surrender.
“I swear I won’t go to the courtyard again, alright?”
Randolph let out a disdainful laugh and uttered a word. “No!”
He had already promised Catherine he would not allow these two brats to disturb her. Carlo felt overwhelmed and could only turn to Cory for help.
Cory glanced at Carlo. The two of them were perfectly in sync.
They stood up simultaneously three seconds later. Randolph also stood up but didn’t expect these two brats to be so cunning. One went left, and the other went right.
“Little brats! How dare they play dirty tricks on me!
“This is my base. Not to mention two men. I’ll notice even if it’s just one sprout missing,” thought he.
Half an hour later, Carlo found Cory in a small drain. He took refuge inside it as he gasped for breath. “Wow, Aaron, you’re impressive! You found such a good place.”
Cory remained silent, engrossed in studying the computer in his hand.
Carlo was exhausted from being relentlessly tracked by Randolph. It was unexpected that a doctor specializing in wheat research could track him even better than Carlo, an expert in this field.
“Aaron, I believe that the courtyard and that beautiful woman are definitely not ordinary. Otherwise, Dr. Dunn would not attach much importance to them. I suspect the beautiful woman might be Dr. Seven’s granddaughter or something. In any case, she must be connected to Dr. Seven somehow.”
After a moment of silence, Cory finally muttered a word as a response. Carlo gave him a bump. “What are you muttering about? Have you been listening to me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing him still holding and operating the microcomputer, Carlo could not help but approach to have a closer inspection.
It turned out that Cory was investigating that beautiful woman. ” Aaron, how is it going? Did you find any information about her?”
“No!” Cory shook his head.
“It was extraordinary that no information was available about her, as if her background were a blank sheet of paper.
“There were few people that I could not obtain their information on the intelligence network of the Duncans. Who exactly is this woman?” said he inwardly.
Carlo asked about Cory’s following plans. Cory gritted his teeth and muttered in a low voice, “I’ll personally go there when it gets late at night. I don’t believe it!”
“Okay, I’ll keep Dr. Dunn occupied for you. You go ahead!” Carlo said with a loyal expression.
Cory did not want to bother with this idiot and intended to act alone.
It was the first time Paxton had seen Branden come to a remote and impoverished area in the middle of the night.
“It was unknown why Miss Swann had come here, and my boss is madly in love. As soon as the experiment in the laboratory was over, he immediately rushed over without even having a short rest,” Paxton said inwardly.
“Sir, this is it!” Paxton looked at the small courtyard in front of him and respectfully reported to the man behind him.
Branden was planning to call Catherine to tell her he had arrived when a round and chubby robot emerged from the house and opened the door for them.
“The boss has asked me to pick you up. Please follow me.”
After glancing at the intelligent robot, Branden couldn’t help but curl up the corner of his mouth into a slight smile.
“Quite adorable!” thought he.
They followed the robot into the courtyard and saw Catherine leisurely resting there. The robot slowly moved over to Catherine and briefed her about the situation.
“Boss, I’m back!”
Catherine sat straight slowly and looked toward the man standing not far away. With his gaze unwaveringly fixed on Catherine, Branden stood in the dark night and slowly walked toward her step by step.
