After dinner, Catherine hounded Sean to tell him about what happened at the casino.
Sean told the story quickly in a short manner.
Catherine knew it was dangerous. The casino was big, and Harlan hired so many muscle men. If Brad didn't arrive in time, something bad might happen.
Catherine said, "I shouldn't have left."

"Nice idea. But for me, your safety matters the most."

Catherine wanted to stand next to him. So she tried to make herself stronger.
"It's my duty to protect you. Don't think too much. I'm okay."
