All Her Secrets Chapter 417 by Chestnut

Chapter 417 Being Thrown off the Helicopter

The next morning, Catherine woke up on time at nine o’clock. As soon as she woke up, she received an update from Jon. Last night, three trainers chose to quit due to being unable to withstand the pressure.

This was better than Catherine expected. It was only three people, whereas she had anticipated at least half would not make it.

Looking at the messy faces on the monitor, Catherine couldn’t help but feel disgusted and said, “What poor physical strength!”

Since she was awake, she would prepare some “breakfast” for them. A smug smile appeared on Catherine’s face.

“Jon, get ready to drop the bombs!”

Upon hearing that, Jon immediately woke up with a jolt.

“Okay!”

This was really exciting. Bombs were being dropped 24 hours a day without interruption.

He finally understood why the higher- ups spent a lot of money hiring Anon. Although Anon was an assassin, he was very good at combat training.

The team members who could stay this time would definitely become the elites among the elites.

The trainers in the dense forest had only rested for a while before discovering something wrong. There was a particularly subtle sound coming from above them. Unlike the sound of roaring helicopters, it was very light and sounded like a drone this time.

It was difficult for ordinary people to hear it clearly, but those trainers weren’t ordinary people. They had undergone professional training so they could hear it. Sure enough, following the direction of the sound, the trainers saw the drone flying straight toward them.

The distance between them and the drone was getting closer and closer, and there seemed to be something tied underneath the drone. By the time they could see what was tied under the drone, it was already too late.

“Run. There are bombs!”

One bomb landed just after one trainer said that, and the trainer who had just spoken was instantly injured, with no possibility of continuing training. The extensive bombing that began last night did not stop until 7 a.m.

It was only 9 o’clock now. The trainers had rested for less than two hours before being bombarded by a new round of bombs.

Unlike last time, it wasn’t an extensive area bombing but a precise drop of bombs using the drone.

With surveillance in the dense forest, the drone could accurately capture their positions and bomb them all in one go.

To avoid being bombed, they had to avoid the drone radar and the dense surveillance everywhere.

Even Carlo was in despair. “Cory, this instructor is the devil!”

Two hours later, the sound of an alarm on the playground reached the dense forest, and this round of testing was finally considered over. The crowd gathered on the playground, dragging their tired and tattered bodies.

Failing to reach the playground before noon would also result in them failing the test. Everyone knew that the training on Scorpion Island was brutal, but no one expected it to be brutal to this extent.

The instructor, this time, was really perverted!

It was only the second day, and half of them had already been eliminated. When the trainers arrived at the playground, they saw an off-road jeep on the playground.

On the car’s roof, a heavily armed man wrapped tightly from his head to his feet. His sitting posture was extremely lazy and arrogant. Even if they could not see his body and face, the aura emanating from him alone was enough to intimidate everyone present.

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Catherine picked up the nearby loudspeaker and casually placed it in her hand to speak.

“I’m glad to still see you all standing here!”

Judging from this familiar voice, everyone knew who this seemingly annoying person in front of them was.

At first, everyone didn’t recognize him as the instructor because he was so petite in front of them. Compared to them, the big and tall men, he looked like a tall woman.

But when the crowd heard his iconic demonic voice, they immediately trembled all over. There might be nothing in the world that could make them feel more terrifying than his voice. It was not until the third day that they saw the instructor, which showed how unique he was!

Before Catherine could continue speaking, a sudden voice broke the quiet of the scene. “Report, team member Francis is here!

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man who was all ragged and wet walking toward them from the side. Everyone was somewhat puzzled. The quota for this training was fixed. Could someone join in now?

Just as they wanted to watch the instructor teaching this trainer a lesson, they heard the voice of the instructor calling him to take his post.

Catherine didn’t expect that the trainer who was said to be excellent and joined through connections would be Francis.

It seemed that Branden really had the ability. He even enjoyed privileges on Scorpion Island. Francis took the initiative to walk over to Cory and Carlo’s side, but he didn’t rush to greet them.

The three exchanged glances at each other, each tacit. Various noisy voices echoed in the team, all of which were questions about Francis’s sudden joining.

After all, they had a difficult day and night. If Francis could join them without passing the previous tests, would it be fair for those eliminated?

The questioning voice grew louder and louder, and it wasn’t until Catherine looked up and glanced at the crowd that the voice gradually disappeared.

But this was due to Catherine’s authority. They were completely unwilling to accept Francis’ joining in their hearts.

Catherine was very clear about their ideas.

To ensure fairness, Catherine directly reached out and pointed at Francis.

“You, come out.”

Francis stepped out of the line as instructed.

Catherine told him coldly, “Tell these people how you came to the island!”

“I was thrown off the helicopter over the Patrific and swam to the island!!”

Francis said it lightly, but those familiar with this area knew how difficult it was to swim from Patrific to this island.

Putting physical strength aside, if one wanted to go to the island, one not only needed to pass through an island full of cliffs but also through a sea area frequently infested by cannibal sharks.

No one expected Francis to be thrown off a helicopter, which was much more difficult than what they experienced last night.

The point was that Francis was still alone, unlike them, who could still have a team and a buddy to help, which further increased the difficulty factor for Francis.

“Take your post!” Catherine shouted coldly, scanning the crowd. “So, do you have any more questions?”

The crowd didn’t dare to speak again. This competition was meant to choose the strong. Since Francis was so strong, the others had nothing to say. A few seconds later, Catherine announced the latest task.

“Since no one has any objections, let’s continue.”

What?

Everyone present had their blood frozen. This instructor didn’t treat them like humans at all. He treated them like animals.

No, they should be inferior to animals in his eyes.

They hadn’t rested since yesterday. Looking at the dejected faces of the trainers ahead, Catherine couldn’t help but curse, “Look at yourselves. You’ve become tired so easily?

“I promise I’ll let you rest for an afternoon after the new task!”

Although this news sounded somewhat exciting, everyone knew that the instructor in front of them was a pervert.

Who knew how tough the next task would be?

They didn’t even dare to be happy, mainly because they were scared.

Catherine Swann, a simple countryside girl, was having a leisurely and carefree life in the countryside. She thought she could have a happy life there for the rest of her life. Unfortunately, life had other plans for her. Her grandfather left a will for her, making her the inheritor of the Swanns’ billion-dollar fortune. As if that wasn’t shocking enough, he also arranged a marriage for her.

Branden Duncan, the only heir of the wealthiest family in Casier, was the dream prince charming of almost all the women in Casier. But Catherine turned him down in public. Instead of being angry about it, he was attracted by Catherine's cold eyes.Although Catherine seemed to be a girl with a simple life in the countryside, she was not simple. What kind of identity did she have? How would she deal with her unexpected fiancé and the opposition from the rest of the Swanns to her inheritance of the Swanns’ fortune?

Chapter 1 Return of the Jinx At Vicente Swann's funeral. As the Swanns were one of the three prominent families in Casier, Vicente's funeral was naturally packed with big shots and members of respected families in Casier. In the noisy venue, the arrival of a girl in a white T-shirt attracted the attention of everyone present. All of the people present were either rich or powerful. Despite being good-looking, the girl wore a cheap and battered T-shirt, setting her apart from everyone else at the funeral. Seeing how she walked straight toward the Swanns family, someone couldn't help asking curiously, "Who is she? Why is she sitting with the Swanns?" "I heard that she is Miss Catherine, the second daughter of the Swanns that had lived away from the family. Vicente only asked her to come back before he died." "Is that so? I heard that Vicente ordered the family to announce his will in front of everyone before he died. I guess she only returned for this!" ... The girl did not know that she had already become the topic of the guests' discussions. She looked calmly ahead with an indifferent expression on her face. Her eyes remained focused on Vicente's portrait in the middle of the venue. Nobody knew what she was thinking about at the time. At the sight of Catherine Swann like this, Liana Swann, the youngest and favorite daughter of the Swanns, couldn't help complaining to her mother, who was sitting next to her. "Mom, what is going on with this country girl? Grandpa has died. Even if she isn't sad, she should at least pretend to cry. What would the others think if the media took a photo of her like this later? She wouldn't even change her clothes when we asked her to. People that don't know better would think that the Swanns have mistreated her!" After hearing her youngest daughter's complaints, Rachael Swann furrowed her brows too. She thought that her youngest daughter did have a point. She never loved Catherine, her daughter from the countryside, dearly. In fact, Catherine pissed Rachael off just one day after she had returned. However, it was not the right time for Rachael to handle Catherine now. She planned to wait until the funeral was over before sending Catherine back to the countryside so that Catherine wouldn't continue to embarrass the Swanns here. Looking up, Rachael saw that her husband had arrived. She comforted her youngest daughter in a low voice, "Liana, be good. Your father is here. Bear with Catherine for now. We need to deal with what is important first!" Liana couldn't show her annoyance towards Catherine in public, so she could only choke back the complaints on the tip of her tongue. Nobody noticed that Catherine, who had been looking straight ahead, smiled lightly. The Swanns never spent time with Catherine, so they wouldn't know she had exceptional hearing. Even though Rachael and Liana spoke in a low voice, Catherine clearly heard every word of their exchange. Her mother truly did not love her! As Catherine stared at Vicente's portrait, her eyes flashed with a faint trace of sadness. Did she have to cry because of pain? ... Korbin Swann walked up the stage slowly. He gave a long speech first and expressed his views about how great Vicente was before finally announcing that the family would publicly announce Vicente's will. As many people knew this beforehand, the crowd was not too surprised. Vicente had a son and daughter. It was a no-brainer who would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. However, nobody understood why Vicente would make sure to make such a fuss to announce his will publicly. Was it just for formality? The lawyer Vicente trusted the most when he was still alive opened the sealed will and read it out loud. "After careful consideration, I, Vicente Swann, leave all my shares of the Swann Corporation, real estate properties, and a 500 million-dollar deposit at the Bank of Nospines to my granddaughter, Catherine Swann..." At the lawyer's words, the crowd gasped in shock. Not even the Swanns, everyone present was dumbfounded. Catherine Swann? Wasn't she the second daughter of the Swanns, the jinx that Vicente sent off to be raised in the countryside when she was young? How could it be? She would inherit the fortune of the Swanns. With their jaws dropped, everyone shared a similar look of horror. Except for Catherine, the center of the discussion. She still looked indifferent, as though nothing had happened. Her eyes were still fixed on Vicente's portrait in the center of the hall. Her lips parted slightly as she spoke in an almost inaudible voice. "Old man, what were you thinking?"
