Chapter 820 You and Me

Catherine finished the first round of experiments and walked out of the lab at 10 pm. That was when she saw Rylan waiting by the door.

Rylan came back very often, like before. But she barely talked with him. And he did not disturb her either by watching in silence.

But Rylan was somehow different today. His face twisted with anger. He was covered in a frenzy of rage. The minute he saw Catherine, he walked over and said, “Catherine, we need to talk.”

Catherine did not refuse and sat on a bench with him. She did not want to waste time with Rylan, so she got to the point directly. “What’s the matter?”

“Catherine, you know Branden is using you. Why do you still fall for him?” asked Rylan angrily.

Catherine was expressionless, her eyes fixed on him like two sharp knives. ” Rylan, that is not your business. You are in no place to judge.”

“I don’t want to see you be deceived,” said Rylan, looking at Catherine affectionately with a complex expression, painful and sympathetic. ”

Catherine, you are the one I care about the most. I see your hard work in the experiment. The last thing I want is for you to be someone’s stepping stone.”

Catherine still looked at him as if she had magically seen through him with her dark, shiny eyes. That gave Rylan a chill.

“What about you? What is your purpose?” she asked.

Rylan dared not look Catherine in the eyes. “Catherine, I care for you because you are my only friend and the one I want to protect.”

Touching, but worthless.

“Rylan, I don’t care what your purpose is. Let me tell you one more time. Stay out of my business. Whether Branden is using me or he loves me has nothing to do with you. I can handle my own business without you telling me what to do. This is the last time I warn you.” With that, Catherine left.

Rylan looked at Catherine from behind, his eyes turning cold. He thought, ‘ Catherine, this is your decision. You will pay for it.’

“Damn it! They are all gone!” Zobber’s rant caught Withal’s attention.

He stopped what he was doing and looked at her. “What’s going on?”

Hearing Withal’s voice, Zobber could not help but complain. “My effort is wasted. These people are gone. They have all disappeared unexpectedly. How weird is that?”

A few days ago, they arrested a few hostile people and interrogated them. Although they did not gain much information, they still got some clues, including the whereabouts of some of the hostile members.

Zobber and Withal decided to track them down secretly, monitor their actions, and find their basement. Then, they would be able to rescue Ronin, figure out who was behind the scenes, and kick their asses.

So, Zobber spent two days developing a secret weapon that could remain undetected while tracking people down. Unexpectedly, when she was about to put this secret weapon into use, those people were already gone. She could not even find any traces of them.

Withal frowned. He inspected it closely. Those people were gone without traces like Zobber said. Looking at Withal’s solemn face, Zobber was a little worried. “Why’s the long face? It is not a big deal. We will find them again.” She meant to comfort him because Zobber barely saw Withal as solemn as now.

“I’m afraid it is not that simple,” said Withal in a low voice.

That made Zobber nervous. “What do you mean, Withal?”

“We have been tracking them for so long. There’s no way they disappear like that unless they are all….” Withal made a gesture. Even Zobber was startled.

“You mean they are killed?” asked Zobber.

Withal nodded slightly, frowning unconsciously. They had known very little about their enemies. The enemies were more terrible and ruthless than they expected.

“What do we do now?” Zobber also felt the seriousness of the situation and could not help but feel a bit worried.

“Dead or alive, we have to find out ourselves,” said Withal. He was preparing already. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Seeing his action, Zobber also kept up. ” We will go together. I’ll inform Catherine.”

“No need.” Withal refused. Zobber stopped and looked at him in confusion. “Why?”

“I’m afraid Catherine is busy with experiments. I heard that it is a critical point now. So, it will be only you and me. Tell Wantells to back us up. And also inform Connie in case we die,” said Withal.

He seemed to be joking, but it showed how dangerous it was. Or else he would not involve Connie in this.

Zobber shrugged and relaxed a little, smiling at Withal. “All right, as you said, only you and me.”

Withal patted her head from behind and said, “You and me!”

Zobber slapped his hand off and said, ” Don’t treat me like a three-year-old. Stopping patting my head. Go away!”

The two of them played around again, and the tension instantly eased.

Catherine got a message from Zobber when she woke up. They did not ask her to come together, knowing she was busy with her experiments. Zobber only informed her of their action. Zobber explained Withal’s arrangement in the message. With Connie together and Wantells backing them up, their safety could be assured to the greatest extent.

But Catherine was still worried about them. She knew how cruel their enemy was. She had to think of other ways to help them.

She took out her phone and called Paxton. “Paxton, bring Zobber and Withal back safely.” She could use Branden’s people without his instructions now.

Paxton acted right away. Catherine’s order equaled Branden’s order. Branden had told him so many times. ” Okay, Miss Swann. Don’t worry, Loxton is our place. They will be fine.”

Paxton hung up and made some arrangements.
