All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 465 The Scarred Man

Catherine didn’t even glance at the documents the kidnapper held. She had one request.

“I’ll sign when I see her.”

Catherine stood at the entrance of the factory. The afternoon sun cast a glow upon her,

which made it impossible to discern her expression or features.

However, she exuded an intense aura that was hard to ignore. Upon hearing Catherine’s

demand, the scarred man sneered and squinted his eyes. He stared at Catherine with a

malevolent look in his gaze.

“Kid, I’ve got the upper hand now. You’re no one to negotiate with me.

“Come over here and sign this obediently. I’m giving you this opportunity because you’ve

got some guts left. Don’t think just because you’re a girl, I can’t handle you.”

The scarred man often enjoyed hunting in the mountains, but when he captured prey, he

wouldn’t immediately finish it off.

Instead, he’d give the prey a glimmer of hope and let it escape. When the prey believed it

had escaped, he’d recapture and kill it.

He would make his prey experience the utmost despair before eventually dying in agony.

To the scarred man, Catherine was now just like the prey he had recently captured.

However, this was just the scarred man’s imagination.

After all, he was facing Catherine.

Catherine idly played with her fingers.

She was thoroughly uninterested in the scarred man’s nonsense. She remained calm and

casually looked up, with her eyebrows slightly arched.

“Stop wasting time. If you’re going to act, do it quickly!”

“Oh…” the scarred man chortled. He was taken aback by Catherine’s confidence. He

looked at Catherine mockingly and waved his hand toward the two henchmen behind him.

Dealing with a girl like Catherine, he thought two of his men were overkill. His two

henchmen rubbed their hands eagerly and stepped forward with smiles on their faces.

They had been itching for Catherine for a while now. With her stunning face and attractive

figure, she was extremely beautiful.

She was even better than the top-notch ladies from the high-end clubs. And she came

from a wealthy family to boot.

Catherine was so extraordinary. Just getting a touch would be a jackpot for them. They

would have pounced long ago if their boss hadn’t held them back.

With excitement, the two men inched closer to Catherine. One of them couldn’t resist

reaching out a hand when he was just a step away from Catherine. But before his hand

could touch Catherine’s clothes, suddenly…

A gust of wind rushed in. The men couldn’t quite grasp how Catherine moved so quickly,

but he felt a powerful force pulling his body forward, and then he was sent sprawling.

Then came two crisp snaps, and his forearm was twisted into an unnatural position. He

didn’t even have time to register the pain or scream.

Catherine swiftly raised her leg and brought it down hard on the man’s lower back.

“Ah…”

A wretched scream followed, and the man lay writhing on the ground in agony. The force

behind that kick was enough to leave him in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

On the side, another henchman witnessed everything up close, leaving him petrified. He

had been in the game for years and seen many tough folks, but never had he witnessed

anything as terrifying as this.

Moreover, Catherine was just a young girl.

Catherine lazily scrutinized the other henchman. She extended her hand and lightly

beckoned him with her finger. The henchman screamed in fear and instinctively tried to

retreat.

Catherine lifted her foot and delivered a powerful kick, sending him flying through the air

before crashing onto the ground.

A loud thud followed as his massive body hit the ground. It caused a cloud of dust. The

henchman struggled to get up and attempted to seek help from the scarred man.

But as he opened his mouth, a surge of blood gushed from his lips. Then he collapsed to

the ground without lifting his head. The scarred man was splattered with his comrade’s

blood. He stood there in shock.

He hadn’t expected Catherine to be this formidable. At that moment, he finally understood

why his boss had warned him to be cautious of Catherine.

His grip on the small vial in his pocket tightened. With anxiety, he felt regret that he didn’t

use it. His boss had prepared a vial of special substance for him to deal with Catherine.

By threatening her through Audrey, he’d make Catherine take the substance and then

have her sign the agreement.

But upon seeing Catherine, he dismissed her as just a pretty girl. He thought his boss was

overreacting and didn’t follow the plan.

Now he realized his mistake.

The scarred man turned around and saw his dozen or so henchmen behind him. They were

all armed with weapons. He himself had a revolver holstered on his waist. With this kind of

firepower, Catherine’s strength was irrelevant.

Thinking of this, the scarred man regained his confidence. He looked at his henchmen as

he raised his arms and shouted, “Let’s go together! Once we finish her, we’ll have a

victory celebration tonight!”

Motivated by the scarred man’s call, the henchmen brimmed with enthusiasm. Catherine

still maintained her indifferent posture. She was seemingly unimpressed with their

numbers.

But she thought the scarred man’s decision was quite sensible. For Catherine, dealing with

all of them at once was more efficient. With a thunderous roar, the henchmen charged

forward and caused a cloud of dust.

Catherine stood her ground and allowed them to approach. When a henchman swung a

baseball bat at her head, she casually retaliated. She lifted her leg and delivered a swift

kick to the henchman’s head.

With a side kick, the henchman holding the baseball bat went flying in an instant.

Then Catherine grabbed another henchman. She seized his arm and struck his abdomen

with her other hand.

Her movements were swift and precise. She delivered a brutal blow.

Coincidentally, the two individuals who were struck happened to be together, providing

each other with some company.

In just a few short minutes, Catherine had completely dismantled the opposition. Their

previously confident demeanor had crumbled under Catherine’s blows. Now, they were

filled with fear. The scarred man was stunned. He stood frozen and forgot to move.

It wasn’t until Catherine sent another henchman flying and landed right in front of him,

emitting a deafening scream, that he snapped out of his stupor.

In a frenzy, the scarred man hastily drew his revolver and trembled as he aimed it at

Catherine. At that moment, the scarred man was wearing a self-satisfied grin.

In his view, no matter how powerful Catherine’s fists were, she couldn’t withstand the cold

bullets. No matter how good she was at fighting, she would still end up dead in his hands

shortly.

Catherine, who was in the midst of fighting, suddenly felt a chilling presence behind her.

After she quickly turned her head, their gazes met.

The scarred man hadn’t anticipated Catherine to turn around at this critical moment. He

was shocked by the look in Catherine’s eyes.

Her gaze was akin to a black hole and seemingly capable of swallowing everything. It

brimmed with an incomprehensible and formidable power.

After years in the game, he had lived through some seriously tough times.

He had seen all kinds of tough folks, but it was the first time he’d encountered someone

with such an intense presence.

The scarred man was stunned, and his hand paused.

After just a brief lapse of 0.01 seconds, the situation took a complete turn.
