Chapter 825 Recognized Beauty

“Is what you’re saying true?” Shane was a bit incredulous when he heard the news from his assistant. He didn’t expect Catherine to actually succeed, let alone in such a short time.

The assistant nodded affirmatively. Yes, Mr. Edson. The news is reliable, and we also know that Catherine will send the report paper on her experimental results to the authority for certification next Friday.”

“Next Friday?” Shane’s eyes were filled with incredible suspicion.

“Yes. Catherine’s experiment has reached its final stage. If it goes well, it can be sent for certification in time for next Friday.”

Although this might sound unbelievable, it was already the result of the assistant’s repeated verification.

They were truly shocked by Catherine’s ability. They knew Catherine was very efficient, but they didn’t expect her to be so efficient.

After Shane knew all of this, he was more than a little shocked inside.

He underestimated Catherine, the genius he had nurtured firsthand.

It seemed that Catherine’s talent far exceeded his perceptions, or rather she had had some reservations with him from the beginning.

It wasn’t entirely out of the question that Catherine was so smart that she could do this.

“Can there be a way to get the experiment information?” Shane knew that stealing the results of the experiment outright wasn’t possible.

He wanted to get the experiment information and some core stuff. The team members he had were all top-notch talents from around the world.

Although they couldn’t complete the experiment, it was possible for them to produce a paper based on the information and obtain certification from authoritative institutions through his operation.

After they obtained certification, Catherine would have to come to negotiate with him in person. At that time, it wouldn’t be Catherine who had the final say.

He believed that with Catherine’s intelligence, she would be able to tell which one was more important.

What she cared about was the experiment. There was no way she would give up the experiment for the sake of immediate benefits and choose to start all over again in another direction.

Shane was different. What he cared about was profit.

If the results of this experiment fell into Shane’s hands, with this lucrative experiment, the Breens would thrive forever.

The assistant looked embarrassed after hearing Shane’s order. “Mr. Edson, this might be difficult!”

Shane, however, said without much concern, “Oh, we have never been afraid of difficulties. If there were no difficulties, would you be needed? Remember, I don’t keep lame ducks!”

The assistant nodded silently. “Mr. Edson, please don’t worry. I will go and arrange it now.”

After the assistant left, Shane took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed a mysterious number. “I don’t think it’s necessary to continue our cooperation. You didn’t even tell me that Catherine will be sending the experimental paper for certification next Friday.”

Shane’s deep voice was filled with anger, but he tried his best to suppress it.

Then, someone’s cold voice came from the receiver. “Mr. Shane, I believe the people under your command will report this little matter to you. And what I need to do for you is an important event. Do you think I’m right?”

Shane didn’t want to negotiate with the other party and made a direct request. ” I need the information in Catherine’s lab, or…”

Without waiting for Shane to finish, the other party agreed readily. “Okay!”

With that, the call ended. Shane held his phone, with a proud expression in his old eyes.

The two talents he had raised were both the most ferocious characters.

But no matter how powerful these two people were, the victory would always go to him, who stood on the hill with a hunting rifle in hand watching.

Amelia cautiously walked through the door. Just as she hesitated to knock, Catherine reacted and looked toward her. “What can I do for you?”

Amelia’s eyes widened in shock. “Super Catherine, do I have loud footsteps? How did you know I was coming?”

She didn’t believe in coincidences. Catherine’s gaze clearly told Amelia that she knew her appearance.

“Your footsteps weren’t loud. It’s just that I have sharp ears,” Catherine said blandly.

Even though her tone was extremely flat, it still shocked Amelia a bit.

Amelia inwardly exclaimed, “Geniuses not only have smart brains, but even their sensory organs are sharper than ordinary people.”

In front of Catherine, Amelia seemed like a muggle who came to the world to make up the numbers.

Amelia smiled bitterly and brought the food boxes in her hand to Catherine. ” They’re from Mr. Duncan’s assistant. He said that you should not forget to eat your lunch.”

Catherine glanced at the time. It was lunchtime in the blink of an eye. Branden was quite punctual.

Knowing that Catherine might forget her lunch, Branden simply asked Amelia to deliver it.

Looking at the large food boxes, Catherine guessed that there should be quite a lot of food inside, so she took the initiative to ask Amelia to eat with her together. “Have some with me together?”

Amelia knew that Catherine was genuinely inviting her to lunch, so she readily agreed. “Sure. It’s from Mr. Duncan. It must be delicious. It’s a rare occasion, so I’ll make myself at home.”

As soon as the food boxes were opened, Amelia was amazed to see that it was filled with exquisite dishes. “This is too sumptuous!”

Originally, she just wanted to have a bite to try it out, but she didn’t expect to be amazed by the food inside.

And she could see that the food was plentiful, Catherine couldn’t finish it alone, so she started eating with peace of mind.

Looking at Amelia’s enjoyable appearance, Catherine’s mood for eating also changed for the better. She felt that the food was also quite a bit more palatable.

The food was completely enough for two people. Perhaps Branden had arranged Amelia’s portion in advance so that Catherine would not be too lonely if she had someone to dine with.

Thinking of Branden’s thoughtfulness, a smile involuntarily appeared on Catherine’s face.

Catherine, who usually had a cold face that could almost be described as expressionless, suddenly smiled. Amelia was stunned directly.

Amelia praised her. “Gosh, Super Catherine, you look so beautiful when you smile. You’re even more beautiful than a fairy in a fairy tale!”

Catherine was a recognized beauty. There was no doubt about it.

Although she didn’t participate in the school’s beauty contest, compared to the school beauty queen elected by the highest number of votes in the school, everyone still thought that Catherine, the invisible school beauty queen, was the most deserving.

Looking at Amelia’s exaggerated movements and expressions, Catherine couldn’t help but interrupt her. “Be serious. Don’t be so exaggerated.”

Regarding this point, Amelia, who had always obeyed Catherine, immediately disapproved. “I’m not exaggerating. I’m telling the truth. You’re really beautiful. No wonder there are so many outstanding boys chasing after you. Mr. Melton, who recently threatened the status of the most handsome boy in our school and caused a stir in the school, is still standing downstairs right now.”

“He’s here again?” Catherine frowned slightly.

Amelia nodded. “Yeah. I ran into him when I came in just now. He asked me if you were in the lab. But I told him that I couldn’t help him because I couldn’t get into your lab. Is it okay for me to say that?” Amelia inquired carefully.

She could see that Catherine had no other thoughts about Rylan.

Catherine’s reaction when Amelia mentioned Rylan was completely different than when Branden was mentioned. When Branden was mentioned, there was a light inside Catherine’s eyes, whereas when Rylan was mentioned, her eyebrows involuntarily furrowed.

Although Amelia wasn’t as smart as them, she could observe all these subtleties.

“It’s okay.” Catherine responded easily, “Just tell him the truth if you find it difficult in the future. Don’t worry about me. I’m fine with that.”

Although Amelia didn’t know why Catherine had instructed her to do so, she was sure that Catherine must have had her reasons for that.

Amelia thought to herself, “Since Catherine has made it possible for me to tell Rylan the truth, there is no need for me to lie to him.”

Every time Amelia needed to dodge Rylan’s gaze and lie, she felt exhausted as if she had experienced severe torture. Now it was great, she didn’t have to have that kind of experience anymore.
