All Her Secrets By Chestnut Chapter 38
Chapter 38 A Real Boss
Catherine woke up so suddenly that Bryan didn’t have time to react. He hurriedly turned away so she wouldn’t notice anything wrong with him.
Bryan sat up straight and looked outside the window, pretending nothing had happened. A few seconds passed, and Bryan still didn’t hear any movement behind him.
This made Bryan furrow his brows slightly, feeling strange. Just as he considered whether he should turn back to look, a voice rang beside him.
“Bryan, she’s gone. Stop pretending.” Bryan turned his head back slightly and glanced, only to see that Catherine was indeed gone.
His hands clenched slightly under the desk, and a faint trace of anger was on his face. He looked somewhat fiercely at David.
“When did I care about her? Don’t talk nonsense.”
However, David didn’t say who she was. Bryan confirmed David’s guesses without being pressed. Nonetheless, Bryan’s expression already scared David out of his wits. He didn’t dare to retort at all.
His boss looked truly scary when he got mad!
Bryan stared at the empty seat next to him. His brows were slightly knitted as he remembered how Catherine looked when she walked into the classroom.
Catherine’s eyes were so bright. They made Bryan feel as if he had seen her before. They were dream-like and tempting.
Most of the time, Bryan could attract the attention of everyone, no matter where he was.
However, the new student didn’t even spare him a glance after being in the classroom for so long. In fact, Catherine had totally neglected him.
Seeing Bryan stand up, David was a little flustered. He asked hurriedly, “Bryan, where are you. going?”
Bryan answered coldly and arrogantly without even turning back to look at him, “Home, of course!”
Watching Bryan walk away briskly, David couldn’t help but feel that something was off. But he couldn’t tell what was off. Also, why was Bryan limping slightly?
Was he hurt?
Who would dare to harm Bryan?
No. Who would be so powerful to be able to harm Bryan?
As Catherine stepped outside the school, she knew someone was following her. Catherine’s bright brown eyes remained as emotionless as her cold expression.
She turned to walk into an alley next to campus. It was out of the way, and few people came here. Just as Catherine turned into the alley, she heard fast and messy footsteps coming up from behind her. There were quite a few of them.
Four of five gangster-looking young men walked out at the two ends of the alley. Catherine could tell at a glance that they were actual gangsters that had received little education.
They weren’t students at all but hooligans.
The one who looked like he was the group leader had his hair dyed blonde. He was carrying himself in a way that didn’t match his youthful and somewhat handsome face at all.
Blondie walked up to Catherine and blocked her way. After sizing Catherine up, he was utterly mesmerized by Catherine’s other-worldly beauty.
“Oh god. The girl is too beautiful!” he thought.
Blondie stared in a daze and only collected himself after being reminded by his sidekick.
Even though Catherine was really pretty, Blondie had to do what he had been paid to do.
Leaning on one leg, Blondie held his head high and looked at Catherine in a way he thought was intimidating. He even slurred a bit to sound more casual.
“Girl, I heard you were very arrogant at school!”
With her brows slightly furrowed, Catherine’s calm expression showed a slight trace of annoyance.
She checked Blondie out with a glance and said coldly, “Just go ahead. Don’t waste time. chitchatting!”
Her cold tone and clean words cut Blondie off from what he planned to say. Blondie choked on his own words. He was both annoyed and angry.
He decided to teach Catherine a small lesson first so she would learn that there were some people she couldn’t afford to offend. Then, he would talk to her.
Blondie was particularly confident in dealing with girls like Catherine. He didn’t even open his eyes fully and waved a hand lightly.
“Jacky, go on!”
The boy he called upon took a knife from his pocket and walked towards Catherine with an evil grin.
“Girl, if you beg for mercy nicely, I might be able to ask my boss to let you go.”
Annoyed, Catherine couldn’t understand why the gang talked so much. Why couldn’t they just go straight to the fight?
After spouting all kinds of threats, Jacky saw that Catherine didn’t react at all. He was so embarrassed and mad that he charged straight at her with a knife.
Then, Jacky, still looking ferocious just now, fell on the ground in a horribly twisted posture.
Nobody saw how Catherine attacked Jacky. It all happened in the blink of an eye. Jacky didn’t even have time to scream before being completely crippled.
She was so cold and ruthless…
Blondie finally opened his eyes without hearing anything from Jacky and was shocked by the scene. Jacky was lying by Catherine’s feet motionlessly.
Then, Blondie turned to look at his men. All of them looked horror-struck, as though they had seen something ghastly.
Blondie pointed at Catherine and asked his men, “Did this girl attack Jacky?”
His men didn’t know whether to nod or shake their heads. They didn’t even see Catherine move before Jacky fell. It was too scary.
Blondie then turned around to size Catherine up again and said coldly, “I didn’t imagine you could fight!
“Boys, let’s go together!”
The group of men charged at Catherine, who didn’t even blink.
A minute later, Blondie and his gang, who were so arrogant just now, were all sprawled on the floor in extremely twisted and disgusting postures.
There was no blood, but anyone could see that a fierce fight had just happened here.
In fact, it was a single-sided torture as Blondie and his men were no match to Catherine at all!
After dealing with the gang, Catherine walked off.
She dealt with the dozen men single-handedly, still holding her school bag in the other hand.
Blondie looked up at her before collapsing fully. His eyes were filled with admiration as he
watched Catherine leave.
What a boss!
She was a real boss!
Blondie and his gang didn’t notice a third group of people standing by the window of the building opposite the alley, and they had witnessed the whole incident.
David only collected himself after Catherine had left.
He snapped his jaw, which had gone numb, shut with a hand, as his jaw had dropped when he saw Catherine in action.
David was fortunate to see his boss, Bryan, fight once and was already amazed by and totally admired Bryan for his fighting skills.
He didn’t expect to encounter a woman who could fight so well one day. It was truly amazing!
“Bryan, did you see clearly? I didn’t even see how the new student attacked them. Say, if you fight with her, who would win?”
David’s words made Bryan frown.
What nonsense was he spouting?
They weren’t even on the same level of skills. If Bryan were to fight with Catherine, he probably wouldn’t even last a minute.
Bryan was downright stunned. Catherine was so strong. No wonder his leg was still shaking. If anyone could fight Catherine, it could only be that guy Bryan had in mind!
