Chapter 23
Catherine had learned about Joseph’s profile. She only glanced at it, but she had got a photographic memory.
Joseph had learned contortion skills since he was a kid, so he could shrink into a small form.
This information was confidential. Only the seniors of the organization could access it.
Hence, it was thanks to his contortion skills that Joseph could successfully acquire the chip and take it out of the base.
When Joseph knew someone had broken in, he realized he was in trouble.
He chose to hide somewhere in the first place. Yet, never did he expect that Catherine would come on her own.
If it were other people who came, he might go all out and put up a desperate fight.
After all, since he betrayed the organization, he would die even if he went back. He could still stand a chance of surviving if he fought it out here. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
However, when he knew that Catherine came by herself, he stopped struggling and surrendered obediently.
No one could get away from Catherine’s hunt. Besides, if caught on the run, he could be tortured seriously.
Joseph did not dare to run away. And he believed that no one would dare to.
He crept gently to Catherine’s feet with a respectful and pious attitude. He said reverently in a deep and humble tone, “Boss, I’m Joseph Green!”
Catherine slowly reached out to Joseph. He immediately understood what she meant.
He took out a knife and stabbed it in his own arm.
As blood splashed, Joseph put up with the severe pain and put his hand into the skin. He took out the chip and passed it to Catherine.
“Boss, here is what you want!”
Catherine reached out two fingers to clamp the chip still stained with blood.
Staring at her movement, Joseph felt somewhat regretful.
He gave the chip to Catherine before cleaning it. This was blasphemy to Catherine. It was his mistake.
What Catherine did next was unexpected by Joseph. She casually picked up a knife from the aside and destroyed the chip she had just gotten.
Joseph’s eyes were ande open. He gazed in disbelief at the scene in front of him.
So many people were longing to get this thing, but Catherine just destroyed it without bliniting her eyes.
For Catherine, the chip was merely something she made randomly during her spare time.
Since it was stained, it should not exist anymore.
After the chip was destroyed, Catherine was ready to get rid of the traitor of the organization. She timed around and slumped onto the sofa aside.
She leaned against the sofa leisurely. The big cap covered most of her delicate and stunning face. Only her pointed and exquisite chin was exposed to the air, which would catch people’s migration.
“Joseph, you have one minute. Explain to me!” Catherine said.
When she said that, she showed an air of varied qualities, including wildness, arrogance, and indifference. It seemed that she was born to stand above everything.
Joseph hurriedly bowed to Catherine and expressed his gratitude constantly. Maybe Catherine was in a good mood today, so she spared his life.
Then he told Catherine the reason why he stole the chip. His lifesaver was diagnosed with cancer and needed a big sum of money for medical fees. Joseph had no other way but to steal and sell Catherine’s thing for cash.
He knew what would happen to him if he turned against Catherine. Yet, he just wanted to do his lifesaver a favor at the cost of his life.
No one could lie to Catherine. Joseph was aware of that. Nor did he have the gut to lie to her.
After Catherine beard Joseph out, she still kept an indifferent face. She kicked the box to Joseph and said coldly, “This will be yours. Deal with everything and come back to report for duty in three days. Remember this. From now on, your life will be mine!”
Having heard that, Joseph felt overjoyed and kept expressing his gratitude to Catherine.
“Thank you so much. I will do as you command. After dealing with my private affairs, my life will be yours!”
After he said that and lifted his head, he found that Catherine was already not on the sofa.
It seemed that nothing had happened. Catherine just came and left unknowingly.
