Chapter 444 Are You Monsters?
When Paxton arrived, Catherine was no longer in the ward. He heard that she had gone to the training
ground to train those little brats. He also received news that the Duncan trio had been severely
tortured.
Carlo had attempted to surrender several times, but the other two stopped him. Paxton could imagine
how cruel Catherine’s methods were.
Branden, lying on the hospital bed, opened his eyes instantly when Paxton entered the room. His icy
gaze was like a sword, bursting out from his eyes, sharp and horrified!
“Where is she?”
Paxton understood Branden’s meaning and immediately gave an answer.”
Boss, Miss Swann is still training them on the training ground!”
If Branden had known earlier that Catherine was Anon, he wouldn’t have spent a fortune to hire this
instructor and bring her to Scorpion Ind for training.
The environment on Scorpion Ind was harsh, and the training was tough. Catherine had gotten
tanned these past few days, which made him feel heartbroken.
Paxton didn’t know what was going on in Branden’s heart at the moment, but seeing Branden squinting
his eyes and looking dangerous, he was so frightened that he knelt down. Branden must be thinking
about how to punish him right now.
“Boss, I offended Miss Swann. So, I beg for your punishment!”
Then, Paxton exined in detail what happened during the past two days of Branden’s
unconsciousness, including his confrontation with Catherine and the punishment of the Duncan trio.
After finishing, Paxton looked up and saw that Branden’s face hadpletely darkened. Suddenly, a
faint voice in Paxton’s heart told him, “You’re done for!”
Branden nced at Paxton coldly.
“Paxton, you do have some nerve! I’ve only been asleep for two days, yet you’ve caused so much
trouble for me!”
Paxton’s heart sank. Apparently, Branden didn’t know about these things.
“I’m done for,” Paxton murmured inwardly.

“Boss, it’s all my fault. I ept my punishment!”
Branden showed no mercy. He could forgive Paxton for other things, but not when it came to
Catherine.
“Next month, there’ll be a project in South Apridon, and you’re going!”
Paxton’s legs went weak with fear. It seemed like he was being sent to the border to do hardbor.
Reluctant as he was, Paxton dared not disobey the order. He nodded obediently.
“Yes, sir!”
Thinking about the punishment this time, Paxton trembled and looked toward Branden.
“Boss, should we investigate Miss Swann or ask if she has any other identities, like a powerful figure
that would scare people to death when revealed?”
Seeing Branden’s face darken, Paxton quickly exined, “Boss, Miss Swann is now considered our
family. If we happen to encounter her in the future, it would save us a lot of trouble if we know her
identity.”
The word “family” seemed to please Branden a lot, and his expression softened a bit. Paxton secretly
breathed a sigh of relief. He had already been sent to South Apridon. If he offended Branden again, he
might be expelled from the Duncans.
Branden had never investigated Catherine and had never nned to do So. Seeing that Branden’s
mood seemed to be good, Paxton boldly asked again, Boss, should I arrange for someone to
investigate now?”
Branden coldly nced at him. “Even if I let you investigate, what would you find?”
Those simple words were truly discouraging.
Branden was right. Even if Paxton investigated, he wouldn’t find anything. Judging from the exposure
of Catherine’s disguises, any one of them was of the level of a super powerful figure. It wasn’t
something that could be easily investigated.
After careful consideration, Paxton decided to give up.
“Boss, please consider what I said as nonsense.”
Catherine was still giving them training on the training ground. The team members were all in awe of
Catherine because she could maintain a cold and emotionless expression in such circumstances. She
must have incredible skills.
The three Duncans looked at Catherine with painful expressions. Their faces were swollen, each bigger
and funnier than the other.
Carlo’s head, which was already very big, now looked like a pumpkin. It was swollen all over, making
people unable to hold back theirughter.
The toxicity of those red ants was too strong. They managed to endure the training yesterday, but it
came at a painful cost!
Now, whenever people saw their faces, they couldn’t help but burst intoughter. Their faces looked
truly ridiculous.
For the three Duncans, beingughed at was no longer their concern. They now simply hoped that
Catherine would not punish them like this again, as they couldn’t take it anymore. Catherine looked
around, preparing to announce the nextmand.
Suddenly, a jarring sound came.”
Reporting to the instructor, 0399 is back!”
Catherine turned her head and saw Branden, who was now wearing training attire, standing beside her
and saluting her.
His injuries seemed like they were still healing. He had just woken up, and now he was ready to cause
trouble again?
Catherine looked at him seriously and said in an unusually stern tone, “0399, this is a training camp,
not a preschool. If your body can’t take my training, I don’t rmend you enter the camp!”
Branden looked at Catherine seriously, his eyes filled with a smile and gentleness that was only
directed at her.
“Sir, I understand. But please rest assured. I will definitelyplete the training tasks. I will train myself
hard until the end of the training!”
From his eyes, Catherine sensed determination and an unwavering resolve. Everyone had to take
responsibility for their own choices. Since Branden had chosen to participate in the training, he would
have to bear whatever consequences came with it.
“0399, back to the team!”
“Yes, sir!” Branden saluted Catherine and quickly walked towards the team. When he saw Carlo and
the other two Duncans, he frowned and couldn’t help but make ament.
“Are you three monsters or something?
Carlo felt terrible and wanted to cry, but he managed to hold it in. With his current appearance and his
actions, he looked both funny and disgusting.
Branden looked at Carlo disdainfully and sarcastically remarked, “You look so ugly. Why do you have to
participate in the training?”
Carlo couldn’t hold back his tears anymore. He never expected that one day his own boss would look
down on him.
The reason? He was too ugly right now!
“Quiet!” Catherinemanded, and silence fell over the surroundings. There was only one week left
for training, and considering the current situation, there would be a need to eliminate a few people.
“Brace yourselves up! Don’t get caught by me. Otherwise, none of you will graduate!”
Her words scared everyone present, their faces turning pale and trembling. Theing days were
bound to be more and more brutal.
