All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 274 What’s Going On?

At the Duncan Corporation. Triston, holding his phone, rushed into the office in a panic. He was moving

so fast that Paxton couldn’t even react. Before reaching Branden, Triston shouted, “Mr. Duncan, we

have a big problem!”

Branden calmly looked up, his cold eyes fixed on Triston, instantly freezing him in place. Triston had

originally intended to charge forward, but this single glance from Branden made him stop 10 feet away.

He was too afraid to approach any closer.

Branden’s lips slightly parted. He said in a low and cold voice, “You better be sure that what you’re

about to say is important, or I’ll have Paxton throw you out of here!”

This building had a total of 88 floors, and Branden’s office was on the top floor. It seemed that Branden

was planning to throw Triston off without giving him a chance to explain.

Triston was so shocked that his whole body trembled, his legs involuntarily shaking. He suddenly

regretted his impulsiveness. He realized that he shouldn’t have rushed to Branden’s office as soon as

he received the news.

What if…

Triston quickly got out of his imagination, tentatively asking, “If it’s about Catherine, does that count as

an important matter?”

After observing for a while, Triston couldn’t perceive any useful information from Branden’s expression.

After all, Branden always had an icy look, unchanging for years.

Triston was now in a difficult position and felt panicked, not knowing what to do. He could only timidly

seek help from Paxton, who was standing beside him..

Paxton was truly not interested in dealing with Triston’s foolishness. If it weren’t for Triston’s long-

standing relationship with Branden, he would have thrown Triston out a long time ago. Rolling his eyes,

Paxton coldly said, ” Mr. Lambert, Mr. Duncan wants you to cut the nonsense and get to the point!”

“Oh, I see!” Triston responded, suddenly understanding what was going on. He quickly handed over his

phone. “Mr. Duncan, this is serious. You need to watch this video. Someone publicly confessed his love

for Catherine!”

As Triston’s exaggerated words filled the air, Branden’s face darkened. Paxton really wanted to

strangle Triston on the spot. “You just don’t know how to communicate properly, do you, you idiot!” he

cursed inwardly. ” Do you really want to provoke Mr. Branden and get everyone in trouble?”

The video started playing, and Grayson’s deep voice echoed through the office. The more they

listened, the darker Branden’s expression became.

Paxton’s heart sank. He couldn’t understand why fate had sent Triston, a fool, to sabotage him. His

boss loved Catherine, and now another man dared to say such ambiguous things to her in public. That

guy was asking for trouble!

“Ah, we’re doomed,” Paxton murmured inwardly. A thin layer of frost covered Branden’s face, and his

eyes stared intensely atthe video in front of him. He gazed at Grayson’s handsome face, his eyes

growing even darker!

Until…

After Grayson finished speaking, the video shifted its focus to another person at the scene. As the

camera reversed, a stunningly beautiful face appeared on the screen. However, the owner of this

beautiful face was taking. a nap.

As Branden looked at her peaceful sleeping face, his sharp eyes gradually softened, and the cold aura

around him slowly dissipated. The intense pressure in the office seemed to suddenly fade away,

leaving Triston somewhat bewildered. Triston looked up and saw Branden smiling.

“His fiancée was being praised so ambiguously in public, and now he’s smiling?” Triston asked

inwardly. ” What the hell is going on?”

Driven by curiosity, Triston slowly approached and glanced at the screen. When he saw Catherine’s

sleeping face, he almost burst into laughter. But he didn’t have a chance to examine it further, as

Branden had already placed the phone on the desk upside down.

Branden turned his head and glanced at Paxton, who immediately stepped forward, preparing to escort

Triston out.

Startled, Triston exclaimed, “Mr. Duncan, you can’t be so ruthless! I came here to deliver information.

Can’t you at least let me have a drink of water before I leave?”

Ignoring Triston’s protests, Paxton continued to drag him away. As Triston was about to be dragged out

of the door, he decided to play his trump card.

“Mr. Duncan, I have important information to report!” he exclaimed. The moment Branden looked up,

Paxton, as if triggered by a sensor, instantly stopped restraining Triston. Shaking off Paxton’s grip,

Triston approached Branden.

“Mr. Duncan, although Catherine doesn’t have any interest in Grayson, he is quite persistent. I suggest

you be prepared!”

Branden raised his head, his icy gaze falling on Triston’s face.

“Is that all?”

Triston was comparing him to Grayson. Was it because Triston thought highly of Grayson or looked

down on him?

This single glance made Triston panic. Triston swallowed nervously, his expression suddenly tense. He

said slowly, “Mr. Duncan, I believe Grayson has some ulterior motive. He is doing well in the

entertainment industry, and he even has a stake in his current talent agency. Also, he enjoys making

investments and has made quite a fortune over the years. Most importantly, I suspect he has

connections with the Hacker Alliance!”

The mention of the Hacker Alliance caught Branden’s attention. His eyes narrowed instantly.

“Are you sure?”

Triston felt uneasy under the cold tone but cautiously nodded. “Yes, six months ago, Grayson and

Raymond were planning to collaborate on a multinational project in the lawless Middle Estria. They

offended the local reactionary forces and almost caused a major incident. Later, Raymond said that

Grayson had enlisted the help of the Hacker Alliance to resolve the situation.”

Raymond was Triston’s cousin, and Branden happened to know him.

If what Raymond said was true, then Grayson must have some connection with the Hacker Alliance.

The nature of that relationship still needed to be investigated.

Branden turned his head to look at Paxton, who immediately nodded respectfully and responded, “Yes,

sir, I will investigate right away.”

As Paxton was about to leave, Branden stopped him. He glanced in Triston’s direction and said, “Take

him with you!”

This time, Triston obediently followed along, Once they were out of the office, Triston finally let out his

frustration and started venting.

“Paxton, what’s wrong with your boss? I kindly brought him the information, and he didn’t even offer me

a glass of water. He just kicked me out like this! Are we still friends?”

Paxton rolled his eyes at him without saying a word. Triston continued, “Why is he so ungrateful? How

can he be so ruthless to me?”

“You asked for it.” Paxton bluntly pointed out without any mercy. Triston was so infuriated that he

almost fainted on the spot.

What on earth was going on here?
