Chapter 765 Back to Loxton


    Catherine was standing behind him. And she must have heard what he said about her and Branden.


    Paxton wanted to cry when he made eye contact with Catherine. His heart pounded fast. ” Miss


    Swann.”


    Catherine looked at him with a fake smile, her sharp eyes piercing Paxton’s heart like two sharp


    des. What she said next was even more frightening to Paxton. “I heard you’ve been talking about


    metely, Paxton.”


    Paxton smiled at Catherine bitterly and said, “Miss Swann, please don’t get me wrong. I only think you


    and Mr. Duncan have a good rtionship.”


    Everyone couldn’t help but want tough when they saw Paxton’s embarrassed face. Ronin also took


    the opportunity to reveal what Paxton had previously said about Catherine being pushed down.


    Paxton’s face turned deathly gray in an instant, and he almost begged for merciful death at that


    moment. He gave up hopelessly, lowered his head, and begged with frustration. “Miss Swann, It’s all


    my fault.”


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    Catherine gave him a cold gaze and pointed at the rough sea. “Either you jump yourself, or I’ll kick


    you.”


    Paxton peeked at the deep, dark sea by his side and swallowed nervously. He would be dead and


    gone if he fell into the sea. Survival was not an option.


    He looked at Branden pleadingly, hoping Branden would help him out. But Branden flinched. He


    shrugged at Paxton, meaning there was nothing he could do. Damian and Kurt also looked away,


    refusing his request. As was widely known, pissing off Branden was near death, but pissing off


    Catherine was death by a thousand cuts.


    Catherine dropped a hint at Ronin, who was excited. “Trust me, Catherine. I’ll make him suffer.” Ronin


    gestured and joined forces with Withal and others, approaching Paxton.


    Paxton stepped backward in fright. ” What are you going to do?” The others rushed forward and pinned


    him down.


    Seeing them messing around, Branden wrapped his arm around Catherine’s shoulders and pulled her


    closer. “After you are done with Paxton, do you have the time to talk about us?”


    Catherine felt a chill in her neck and panicked. “Was he going to settle ounts with me?” thought


    Catherine.


    When Branden was not paying attention, she ran away quickly. Before she ran, she said, “I have


    something else to do. See youter!”


    Branden was not anxious. He stood there and looked at her run away from behind. This ship was


    small. And outside the shipy the rough sea. Where could she go? Was she too panicked to think


    straight? That was cute of her.


    Half an hourter, Branden found Catherine, who was already sleeping in bed, in the deepest room of


    the cabin. Perhaps due to being too tired during this period, Catherine slept soundly and didn’t even


    notice him opening the door. Looking at her sleeping face, Branden’s original anger dissipated.


    When he learned that she had deceived him and came alone without telling him, he was furious. After


    his arrival at Florona, his anger had long dissipated, leaving only constant prayers for her safety. He,


    who had never believed in God, silently prayed in his heart, hoping that she could return safely.


    Branden wanted to reach out and touch her soft cheeks but was worried about waking her up from her


    slumber, so he could only let go. He gently lifted the corner of the nket and crawled into the warm


    bed, lying beside her, apanying her to sleep.


    Over the past few days, Branden had hardly closed his eyes. All he could think about was Catherine.


    Unaware of her situation on Florona Ind, he worried about her safety. While actively preparing


    everything, he did not have proper sleep for days.


    Now, he finally felt at ease. Lying next to Catherine made him even morefortable. He fell into deep


    sleep before long. Branden breathed evenly in his tight sleep. Little did he notice how sweet


    Catherine’s smile was.


    After half a day on the sea, everyone returned to Snake Ind and left in a helicopter arranged by


    Branden, heading to Loxton. Halfway through,


    Branden received a message from Loxton. Several subsidiaries of the Duncan Corporation, located far


    away in Casier, had been jointly besieged by foreignpanies and were now facing bankruptcy.


    Although the Duncan Corporation had relocated its headquarters to Loxton, it had also developed in


    Casier for so long. Those subsidiaries held a significant position in the Duncan Corporation. If they


    faced bankruptcy, the Duncan Corporation would also be affected significantly.


    Branden’s brows furrowed slightly, his expression eerie and iprehensible. Before he left, he made


    a lot of arrangements. He knew that once he left Loxton, the people who had been tightly suppressed


    by him wouldunch a crazy counterattack. But he did not expect they were not targeting the


    headquarters in Loxton but rather subsidiaries located far away in Casier.


    It seemed that the interior of the Duncans was not peaceful. Shane Breen tried to seize his lifeline from


    the rear and erode his headquarters strength in Loxton.


    “Mr. Duncan, do we need to change the route now?” asked Paxton. He felt that after such an incident in


    Casier, Branden must personally take charge. The helicopter had not yet arrived in Loxton, so it was


    better to take advantage of this time to turn around and go directly to Casier. The faster they were, the


    earlier they could take things under control.


    Paxton was nning for the best. But Branden did not think so. “Keep going!”


    He instructed the helicopter to continue its original flight, first to Loxton, and after safely transporting


    Catherine and the others back, he rushed to Casier.


    Catherine, resting on the side, suddenly opened her eyes. She did not ask too much and spoke lightly.


    “Head to Casier.”


    Branden looked down at her with a hint of disagreement. “I’ll send you back to Loxton first. Then, I’ll


    rush to Casier in time. It won’t dy my work.”


    Catherine, however, did not ept his suggestion and said to herself, “I haven’t returned to Casier for


    a while. Let’s take a look, by the way. Change the route.”


    After listening to Catherine’s proposal, everybody agreed. Zobber excitedly said, “Casier is a great


    ce. I also want to go to Casier and have a good time.”


    Withal casually waved his hand and said, “I’m free anyway. Anywhere suits me. It’s up to you.”


    As everyone suggested changing the route, Branden nced at Paxton and gestured for him to follow


    everyone’s advice.


    “I’m on it, Mr. Duncan.” Paxton stood up excitedly, limping and running towards the cockpit.
