Chapter 673 You Made Your Own Bed

Roderick’s emotions spiraled out of control, and he resembled a frenzied beast. Displaying a threatening demeanor, he seemed almost eager to devour Branden on the spot.

However, Paxton swiftly subdued him with a single hand before he could come forward, delivering a punch to his abdomen. Roderick crumpled in pain, curling into a ball.

“Who do you think you are? How dare you trouble Mr. Duncan? It was practically seeking death,” thought Paxton. Feeling offended, he struck another blow to Roderick’s stomach.

This time, Roderick couldn’t maintain his stance and collapsed to the ground, clutching his abdomen in agony.

Branden approached slowly and looked down on Roderick with disdain. With lips slightly parted, he said in a cold, mocking tone, “This’s what I gave you back.”

This simple sentence instantly changed Roderick’s complexion. He dared not contemplate what this dignified man might do to his sister.

Even though he had a firm and somewhat disdainful attitude just moments ago, he gave in now. Raising his head, his eyes filled with plea, he said, “I did it all. Come after me if you want. But don’t harm my sister.”

Branden discovered Roderick had a sister, suffering from an illness and residing in the hospital. Due to their mom’s remarriage, his sister even changed her last name, and no one knew they were siblings.

Roderick worked tirelessly as a makeup assistant just to earn more for his sister’s treatment. Exploiting this vulnerability to make him talk was an easy task.

“Don’t harm your sister?” Catherine responded coldly, her words laced with mockery. “When you went after my sister, why didn’t you think of dealing with me only?”

Roderick finally understood why this beautiful woman seemed so familiar. She was the sister of Audrey, the renowned star. Now, he comprehended why she came to him.

He had no issues with Audrey; in fact, he admired her.

Audrey had a very good personality and would not be like some celebrities who started to make a fuss when they became a bit famous, and she would not find fault with some minor roles like assistants in the crew.

Audrey always treated them well and even shared good things with assistants like him.

After some internal struggle, Roderick chose to confess everything. He provided a name. It was the manager of the company that developed that movie town. Usually, those working on set had to interact with him.

The manager transferred a sum of money to Roderick, asking him to create a secret incident involving Audrey. The amount was substantial, and for the sake of his sister’s treatment, Roderick agreed.

Catherine released Roderick after he revealed the entire process. She didn’t subject him to further punishment but instructed him to turn himself in to the police and explain everything.

He made his living on set, but now, he actually hurt an actor for money. When word of this got out, who would dare to offer him this job again?

For someone like him, physical punishment wasn’t the most painful consequence. Taking the price for what he had done was the most painful thing for him.

Before leaving, Roderick turned back, eyes filled with anticipation as he looked at Catherine. “Can you tell me how you spotted the flaws?”

He couldn’t comprehend how even his colleagues failed to notice, but Catherine discovered his disguises just through the videos.

“No.” Catherine decisively rejected Roderick’s request and added, making it clear, “You’re not worthy.”

For someone who had harmed her family, entertaining such thoughts was a sheer delusion.

Seeing Catherine displeased, Paxton immediately arranged for people to drive Roderick out.

Later, Paxton organized some people to investigate further based on the name Roderick had provided, and soon they had results.

Paxton presented the findings to Catherine, who glanced at them and told Branden beside her, “Go to the hospital.”

“Okay.” Branden took her hand and got into the car together with her.

Later, they arrived at Serenity General Hospital.

Outside the ward, Triston stood looking troubled. Since the day Andrea visited, Audrey refused to meet him, even denying him entry to the ward.

Triston’s face lit up with a smile when he saw the group. He quickly walked to Catherine’s side. “Catherine, your timing is perfect. Take a moment to advise your sister.” Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Catherine glanced coldly at him, said nothing, and walked past him into the room.

Seeing Catherine ignore him, Triston was puzzled and looked at Branden. ” What’s going on?”

Branden ignored him, walking to an empty chair and sitting down.

Frustrated, Triston pounded the wall. He had no idea how things got this way. And he could not understand why everyone was treating him this way.

Inside the ward, Catherine handed all the information to Audrey.

Upon learning that her injury wasn’t accidental, Audrey was surprised. She had always kept a low profile in the industry. She never fought for anything, thinking it would secure her peace. Yet, it seemed she couldn’t escape trouble.

“Kathy, I want to handle this on my own,” said Audrey.

As the elder sister, she hadn’t taken care of Catherine. Instead, Catherine had been helping her. The more Audrey thought about it, the more guilty she felt. This time, she decided to resolve the matter herself.

She wouldn’t hold back since the other party came for her and had already harmed her.

Catherine wasn’t one to meddle much, and since Audrey said she could handle it, there was no need for Catherine to intervene. “Don’t get yourself hurt.”

“Rest assured.” Audrey smiled and nodded. “I’ve been working for so many years. Maybe I don’t have your cleverness, but I’m not a delicate flower in a greenhouse. If Miss Silva wants to harm me, let’s see if she’s capable of doing so. She wanted to marry into the Lamberts by doing so, right? I won’t let her have her way.”

Although Catherine didn’t help Audrey to take revenge, she provided Audrey with a lot of information about the Silvas. With this in hand, it was much easier for Audrey to deal with Andrea.

“Kathy, you’re busy with your studies. Go back. When you leave, call Triston in,” said Audrey.

Audrey knew Catherine had been busy with laboratory work lately, and she heard that even Branden had put down his work to accompany her. Thinking of her sister having such companionship, Audrey felt genuinely happy for her.

Outside the ward, Triston sat beside Branden, eagerly looking at him. “Mr. Duncan, when will you be ready? My once happy days are about to be ruined by you.”

Branden glanced at him indifferently and said coldly, “You made your own bed.” It was Triston’s own fault, and he couldn’t blame anyone. 1

Feeling the glare, Triston timidly touched his nose. “Resolve your matters as soon as possible so I can go back and confess to my parents.”

“Soon,” Branden replied indifferently.

Triston’s eyes, which were filled with despair a moment ago, now regained their brightness. Having known Branden for so long, he had never heard Branden speak falsehoods. If Branden said it would be soon, then it would be close to being over.

They were finally going to reach the day of victory, and Triston couldn’t help but get a little excited just thinking about it.

Catherine emerged from the ward, and Branden stood up, seeing her ready to leave.

Catherine looked at Triston and gestured toward the room. Triston immediately became excited, thanking her profusely with a smiling face.

“Thanks, my future sister-in-law!” With that, he joyfully walked toward the ward.

Watching his cheerful figure, Catherine chuckled softly. “Silly.”

Seeing her in a good mood, Branden reached for her waist, pulling her into an embrace. “Let’s go grab a meal. Don’t mind him.”
