Chapter 201


    The next day, Audrey was still in bed when Catherine was ready for school. Audrey struggled to get up


    and walk out of the room after she heard vague noises.


    Seeing Catherine with her bag, Audrey’s eyes instantly widened as she nced at the clock on the


    wall.


    “Geez, it’s sote. Kathy, sorry. I’m upte again.” ”


    She looked at Catherine with a frustrated look and said, “I was going to make you breakfast, but I got


    upte again.”


    Catherine knew Audrey got back from her event in the early morning, and it was almost impossible for


    Audrey to wake up at 7 o’clock to cook breakfast for her.


    “I’ll just eat in the restaurant!”


    Audrey reminded Catherine with a guilty expression, “Please do. Breakfast is the foundation of the


    day!”


    After all, Catherine could only eat out because Audrey couldn’t get up early.


    “Okay!”


    Catherine continued, “You can go back to sleep. I’m leaving!”


    Looking at the door open and close, a sweet smile appeared on Audrey’s face. The two dimples on the


    corner of her mouth made her look adorable, and she might not even know how cute she looked now.


    “Kathy has been talking to me a little moretely. That’s so nice!” After muttering to herself, Audrey


    returned to her room to continue sleeping.


    There was nothing morefortable and joyful than being able to sleep. As soon as Catherine walked


    out the door, she heard a deep and hoarse voiceing from not far ahead. “Good morning!”


    The familiar voice evoked Catherine’s good mood for the day. She looked up slowly and saw the man


    standing across from her in a straight suit.


    Unlike the seriousness of the traditional ck suit, the navy blue slim-fitting suit added a gentlemanly


    aura to the man.


    The man leaned against the door. With a gentle smile on his handsome face, he looked at her with his


    bright ck eyes. Catherine graciously and casually replied, “Good morning!”


    At the same time, she raised the car keys in her hand and waved them in front of the man. The


    nking sound of keys colliding made the manugh helplessly. His little girl had a stubborn nature!


    The man suddenly stepped forward, reducing the distance between the two. The proximity allowed


    Catherine to feel the man’s breath. Catherine felt the warm breath on her face. Catherine’s heart


    skipped and beat irregrly as she tingled.


    The man seemed to lower his voice intentionally. His hoarse voice appeared more and more seductive


    at the moment. “Kathy, I asked Paxton to prepare your favorite pancake. Are you sure you don’t want to


    have some?”


    “Breakfast is the foundation of the day, isn’t it? Kathy…” Branden elongated thest syble


    deliberately, which made the original simple word sound ambiguous.


    Catherine grunted subconsciously. ” Mmm!”


    The man’s eyes lit up. His raised eyes had betrayed his thinking. He looked at Catherine dotingly and


    said softly, “Good girl, Kathy. Let’s go!”


    He took the bag off her and held her hand to pull her toward the stairs. A whileter, Catherine finally


    reacted and cursed Branden countless times in her heart.


    “He’s such a bastard. He has excellent hearing, and he eavesdropped on my conversation with Audrey.


    “The point is, he also seduces me with his handsome looks!


    “He’s good at flirting with me now. I’ve been tricked by him, and it’s toote to say ‘no’ now. “It looks like


    I won’t be able to escape from him.


    “He’s so charming!”


    Looking at the little girl sitting in the car eating pancakes quietly with bulging cheeks, Branden’s mood


    improved greatly.


    There was none of the cold and aloof look that Catherine usually had. There was even a little


    resentment at the corner of her eyes, which made her look cute and made Branden want to kiss her.


    It was as if he had discovered something new. He was in a good mood after discovering another lovely


    side of Catherine!


    It seemed that his decision to move there was not a bad one after all. When Catherine entered the


    ssroom, she went to Ronin’s seat immediately. When she was eating the pancake, she thought it


    was tasty, but now, was a little salty. she felt it


    “Ronin, is there any coffee?”


    “Boss, is rose liqueur okay?” Ronin asked. Catherine reached out. Ronin poured the rose liqueur into a


    ss and handed it over to her.


    Seeing that she was drinking it in a hurry, Ronin couldn’t help but ask, ‘ Boss, did you have breakfast


    today?”


    Catherine answered casually, “I had some pancakes. It was a bit salty.”


    She leaned back in her seat idly andzily, drinking the rose liqueur Ronin gave. She did not notice the


    change in expression on his face.


    Ronin’s face was filled with resentment throughout. The once cute and handsome face was now


    twisted. He couldn’t understand. Branden was the head of the Duncans.


    He had such a huge business and had a lot of affairs to deal with every day. But he had the time to


    bring breakfast to his boss and took her to and fro from school in person. Ronin thought to himself, “Is


    he that idle?


    “Doesn’t he need to deal with his business? “Will a man like him who doesn’t do his job ruin his family?


    Will he make Boss suffer in the future?”


    The more Ronin thought about it, the more he felt that Branden was unreliable. He decided to spend


    some time investigating Branden thoroughly.


    If Branden was found unreliable, Ronin would have to advise his boss to stay away from him, even at


    the risk of death.


    Branden dropped off Catherine at school before rushing in his car to a meeting at the office. It was a


    half-hour drive from the Duncans’ to Audrey’s apartment at top speed.


    Not only was this a waste of time, but there was also no way for him to get breakfast to Catherine in the


    best condition.


    After a few tries, Branden decided to move to the neighborhood and live in the apartment across from


    hers. In this way, he saved time and maximized his time with Catherine. This enabled him to achieve


    two goals at one time..


    Representatives from several partnerpanies wereing to hispany today to discuss the


    renewal of their contracts. There was no way he could bete for it.

    Shortly after the car started, Branden sneezed three times in a row. His whole face sank. He didn’t


    believe his strong body could catch a cold, and there was no reason for the sneezes.


    He raised his eyes to the front coldly. Paxton, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, instantly felt a feeling


    of oppression from a mysterious force.


    Paxton felt as if he was strangled. He expressed his innocence hastily. ” Sir, the car was cleaned


    yesterday.”


    What he meant was, it was unlikely for Branden to sneeze because there was dust inside the car! After


    hesitating for several minutes, Paxton couldn’t hold himself back. ” Could it be that someone is scolding


    you right now?” he whispered slowly.


    This was possible. No one dared to challenge Branden’s authority face to face, but it was possible to


    do it behind Branden’s back.


    Branden’s face instantly sank. He looked terrifying. His cold eyes swept over Paxton, and thetter felt


    like he could die any time. Paxton shut his mouth obediently and dared not speak again.


    He shut his mouth and focused on driving.
