Chapter 372
Chapter 372 Wanted to Stay With You
Withal followed Catherine out of the restaurant in a sad mood. Their group of people were particrly
envious of Ronin because he was the only person who could apany Catherine every day, which
was really enviable.
Catherine had sent Branden the restaurant address, and by the time she walked out, Branden was
already there waiting.
He stood at the entrance of the alley as if he had sensed Catherine wasing. He raised his head as
soon as Catherine came out and looked toward her. The moment his eyesnded on Catherine, he
noticed Withal following her.
Catherine walked straight toward Branden, and from a distance, Branden reached out to hold onto her
palm.
Withal followed behind and saw the scene clearly. When he saw their hands holding together, he
trembled all over.
God, he had discovered another secret. Catherine was actually with someone, and the point was that the
man was freaking handsome.
Just as Withal hesitated to politely go up and say hello, Catherine had taken the initiative to make the
introduction. “This is Hamza, my friend!”
Hearing that Catherine was introducing himself to the man in front, Withal rushed forward. After sizing up
Branden, he said politely, ” My name is Hamza. You can call me Withal as Catherine did!”
Branden nodded and said coldly, “My name is Branden!”
He then turned his gaze back to Catherine. There was no other ce for anyone else in his eyes. He
thought he and Withal only needed to get to know each other briefly. As Catherine prepared to leave,
Branden followed her to the car.
Withal stood frozen in ce for a long time as he watched the car move away. He always felt that the
name Branden was somewhat familiar, and he could sense from the aura emanating from this man that
this man was not ordinary.
“Branden!” Withal recited the name in his heart again silently, and suddenly…
He remembered! The man was the young head of the Duncans in Casier, who was rumored to be the
perfect man!
ording to rumors, the Duncans were not only the richest family in Casier but also the richest family in
the country.
N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.
Because the Duncans had always kept a low profile, they had not publicly ranked as the richest family in
the country.
People who knew the truth knew that the more prosperous a family was in the past century, the more
they knew how to keep a low profile.
On the contrary, the wealthy families on the rankings were just being pushed out to cover the truly
wealthy families. The truly wealthy were still the heirs of these top families.
The man behind Catherine was actually Branden. Withal originally thought that no man in the world was
worthy of Catherine’s exceptional intelligence, but after learning that her man was Branden, Withal felt
they were a win-win union inexplicably.
After all, Branden was rumored to have a transcendent status. The title of heir to the Duncans alone was
enough to put him on the tip of the world’s pyramid.
It was quiet in the car. Catherine had rested enough today, so even if she was sitting in the car now, she
was not sleepy at all and could still take out her phone to y games. Upon seeing her ending the game,
Branden promptly reached out and pressed her hand.
“Stop ying. Let your eyes rest.”
Branden might not stop Catherine’s behavior openly, but he had always kept a standard in his heart. He
would remind Catherine from time to time. After ying a game, Catherine was also tired. Upon
Branden’s reminder, Catherine put down her phone.
Seeing her being so well-behaved, Branden looked at her with a doting face and asked, “Do you have
anything to do tomorrow? When do you n to return to Casier?”
“Next week!” Catherine then gave the precise time. She still had a few things to do, so she wasn’t
nning on going back so early.
The matter of the Winfreds was still unsettled. The Swanns had close contact with the Winfreds, and it
was a little more convenient for her to stay over here as she was able to get first- hand information at
Oceanvile.
“I have something to do tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.”
The man frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
“You can focus on your things. I can do it all alone.” Catherine was not the kind of little girl who was
clingy. She had always been used to being alone, so even if Branden was not by her side, she was fine.
The huge Duncan Corporation was now all handed over to Branden to manage, and he had to do a lot of
things every day. Men were busy with their careers, and Catherine could understand it very well.
“Haha…” Brandenughed a little helplessly. It was not necessarily a good thing that one’s girlfriend was
too generous.
He put one arm around Catherine’s waist, and with a slight application of force, he grabbed Catherine’s
entire body into his arms.
He rested his head on Catherine’s shoulder and whispered softly, “The one who can’t be alone is me.”
The one who couldn’t be alone wasn’t her but Branden himself. Thinking about leaving for two days,
Branden wanted to kill that group of idiots in hispany. They never got things done right, and he had
to handle things in person.
Even he didn’t know when he started feeling like he couldn’t live without Catherine! Inside the dimly lit
car, Catherine’s clear eyes shone like the brightest stars in the night sky. The person who had always
been cold had her eyebrows curved with a smile at this moment.
“It’s just two days. It will end very soon! “Rarely, Catherine actuallyforted the man who began to sigh
because he was going to be separated from her for two days.
It was still early. Branden guessed that Catherine should have just finished her meal, so he didn’t n to
take her to dinner.
“How about we have a walk?”
“Yes!” Just finished eating, Catherine also nned to take a walk to help digestion. Beforeing to
Oceanvile, Audrey asked her to bring back some specialty products.
Although Catherine didn’t like shopping, she didn’t reject it, either. Shopping for something during a walk
was not a bad idea.
Paxton parked the car in the underground garage of Oceanvile’srgest mall, which was not only the
largest in Oceanvile but also one of the threergest zas in the entire East.
On the first floor, there were cosmetics and luxury goods from around the world, all of which were first-
tier brands. Some second-tier products were difficult to have a ce here.
From the fourth floor to the eighth floor, there were all luxury items. Branden led Catherine directly to the
clothing area on the fourth floor, but her requirements for clothing were not high.
Her clothes were all arranged by Ronin, all of which were luxurious and customized designs. She
nned to start checking the bags on the fifth floor!
“Let’s go to the fifth floor!”
Branden had no objections at all. He took Catherine’s hand and walked up the esctor immediately.
They got on the esctor, and the first store on the left was Hermès. Hermès products were always at
the forefront of luxury products.
Catherine remembered that Audrey and Yesenia both loved this brand. After receiving thest shooting’s
payment, Audrey bought a Hermès handbag and showed it off in front of her for a long time.
Catherine nned to go in and take a look, but Branden’s cell phone rang. She asked Branden to
answer the phone first while she went into the store alone first.
There were not many customers in the store, but there were quite a lot of clerks. As soon as Catherine
entered the store, the clerks noticed her.
They looked Catherine up and down. Seeing her shopping alone with aplete set of ck sportswear
and a peaked cap that couldn’t tell the brand on her head, they were somewhat reluctant toe up to
receive her.
However, those who came to the store were guests, and they had to follow the employee rules.
After hinting at each other, the new clerk was pushed out. Approaching Catherine, she said coldly, “Hi,
how may I help you?”
