Chapter 277
In response to Loraine’s inquiry, Catherine chuckled. “No worries. Next time you encounter me, you can
apologize to me again!”
Hearing this, Yesenia, standing behind Catherine, burst intoughter. Catherine’s words were truly
ruthless! She knew well how to infuriate people without using any foulnguage.
The mockery andughter from the crowd left Loraine feeling utterly humiliated. She never expected that
Catherine, a country girl, would have some tricks up her sleeve and such a sharp tongue, making her so
embarrassed.
Loraine’s face had be extremely dark, and if she hadn’t forced herself to remainposed, she
would have probably copsed long ago. She gritted her teeth. “Well, I’m looking forward to our next
meeting!”
Next time, she would make Catherine kneel and apologize to her. Catherine smiled faintly. “Sure!”
“Hmph!” Loraine snorted coldly and left in a huff. She stomped her high heels so hard on the floor that it
seemed like she was creating craters. It was evident just how angry she was this time.
After Loraine left, Yesenia skipped over to Catherine’s side, looking at her with admiration in her eyes.
“Catherine, why are you so amazing? You effortlessly defeated the number one socialite in Casier. I can
tell that Loraine was so infuriated by you that her carefully crafted facade of the past decade is about to
crumble.”
Loraine was not only famous in Casier but also ranked highly on the national socialite list.
Yesenia’s elders used to encourage her to learn from Loraine, not only to improve herself but also to
enhance the Duncans’ reputation. She had intended tomunicate with Loraine, as Loraine rarely put
on airs in front of her.
But after knowing Catherine, she suddenly changed her mind and realized how naive and foolish she
used to be.
“Catherine, aren’t you afraid of Loraine morally manipting you? I feel like every word she said was
meant to praise herself while taunting you,” Yesenia asked sincerely. Catherine responded, “As long as I
set aside my morals, no one can ever manipte me!”
After Catherine finished speaking, Branden pulled her towards the private room, saying, “Let’s eat!”
Yesenia stood dumbfounded behind them, her face full of astonishment. Catherine was so cool! She was
truly amazing!
Yesenia admired her so much that when she finally came to her senses, Catherine was already almost
inside the private room. She hurriedly caught up, saying, “Super Catherine, wait for me!”
Grayson, who was left behind, stared at the hand holding Catherine’s, lost in thought. The moment
Branden appeared, hepletely lost his presence.
Countless people had told him that he was a superstar. And he had once lost himself, thinking that he
was capable enough to stand by Catherine’s side. But Branden’s appearance made him. realize how
insignificant he was.
He hated this feeling! Even though he knew it was impossible, he still didn’t want to let go. Seeing
Grayson standing in the lobby in a daze, Ronin spoke up.
“Grayson, why are you still standing there like a fool? Boss and the others have already gone into the
private room. I ordered a birthday cake for you. Chestnut vor, by the way. You and Boss love it, don’t
you? Hurry up ande!”
Grayson smiled. He thought Ronin was so lucky. If only he could be as simple as Ronin, who treated
Catherine as nothing more than family.
He used to dislike everything with a chestnut vor, butter, he knew that Catherine loved it. Slowly, the
chestnut vor became his favorite taste. There was only one reason-she liked it!
The next day, Catherine arrived at ss, and as expected, she became the center of attention once
again. The incident of Grayson’s concert yesterday quickly spread on the inte.
Although Grayson said it was gratitude, his tone was too ambiguous, and everyone was specting
about the rtionship between Catherine and Grayson. Some even thought that Grayson liked
Catherine.
Grayson was currently a popr idol, and posts containing rumors about him were joked about as
“menstrual posts.” Basically, there would be a new post about him every month, indicating he was dating
another woman.
However, time had proven that those rumors were all orchestrated by the women involved, just to gain
attention. But this time was different. Grayson was the one who said those ambiguous words first. The
fans didn’t know the truth, so various spections spread all over the inte.
Catherine pulled out a chair and sat down, adjusting herself into afortable position, not paying
attention to anyone. She exuded an aura that made people dare not approach her.

Although her ssmates were curious, no one dared to ask Catherine directly. They could only secretly
hide in the corners, observing her every move.
Liana was one of them, of course. She hated the sight of Catherine showing off in ss, and now she
only wanted to see Catherine in a sorry state.
Thinking of her mother’s instructions, Liana followed closely behind Catherine as Catherine walked out of
the ssroom.
“Catherine, stop!” she shouted, but her aggressive attitude didn’t make Catherine stop in her tracks.
Liana stomped her foot in frustration. Catherine was walking so fast, making it difficult for Liana to catch
up with her.
Unable to catch up, Liana had to use a different tone to call out to Catherine, Catherine, wait. I have
something to tell you!”
This time, Catherine stopped in her tracks. She turned around, squinting her eyes and tilting her chin up.
With her hands in her pockets, she stared at Liana.
Her rebellious and arrogant demeanor made Liana tremble with anger. Liana angrily questioned her,
“You heard me calling you, didn’t you? Why didn’t you stop?”
Catherine, however, didn’t even say a word. Hearing Liana’s angry words, she turned around once
again. Liana knew that Catherine was using her actions to threaten her. If she wanted to talk to
Catherine, she had to follow Catherine’s rules and speak properly.
Liana stomped her foot in frustration, but there was nothing she could do. She knew how stubborn
Catherine was, and for the sake of what was toe, she had topromise, “Catherine, please stop. I
have something to tell you!”
Although Liana’s tone had softened, Catherine still didn’t pay any attention to her. Watching Catherine
walk further away, Liana could only apologize obediently, It’s my fault. I’m sorry, okay? I apologize for my
behavior earlier.”
After she finished speaking, Catherine finally turned around, still in the same posture as before. With a
cold gaze, she looked at Liana, expressionless.” What’s the matter?”
Liana didn’t want to say much to Catherine, but she had toplete her task.
“Catherine, everyone is going to Grandma’s house today. There will be a car picking us up after school,
Remember not to bete!”
Seeing Catherine’s indifferent attitude, Liana couldn’t help but ask again, “Did you hear me?”
Without looking back, Catherine left, leaving Liana fuming with anger.
