Chapter 929 Is It for Me?
Catherine saw the message from Branden half an hourter. She never brought her phone into theboratory, and today was no exception. Although it wasn’t time to leave yet, she often left early. Branden’s urgent message made her decide to set aside her current work and go see what was going on.
Arriving at the school gate, Catherine noticed a car parked not far away. This time, Branden wasn’t waiting in the car as he usually did. His tall figure leaning against the car attracted quite a bit of attention.
Despite the admiring nces from many girls, no one dared to approach, knowing about their rtionship.
Branden, focused on his phone, seemed to be waiting for an important call or message.
Catherine quickened her pace and approached. When Branden looked up and saw her, his cold expression lit up as he asked, “Why didn’t you reply to my message?” He had been waiting for her message, nning to wait for her in theboratory building.
Catherine didn’t like him using his privilege, knowing he wouldn’t drive onto the campus without a special reason.
“Why the rush to find me? Is something wrong?” she asked. Branden had been acting strangely today, repeatedly contacting her and evening to pick her up early. She was worried something was amiss.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.
“It’s nothing. Get in the car.”
“Alright.” Catherine followed him into the car, and as soon as she got in, Branden took out a beautiful sapphire blue box and ced it in front of her.
“Is this for me?” Catherine looked at Branden with surprise.
Branden’s gentle smile deepened. ” Open it and see if you like it!”
Receiving an unexpected gift without any special asion made Catherine feel a bit strange. However, her curiosity got the better of her, and she opened the box in front of Branden. As the box opened, her eyes lit up.
Inside was a beautiful ne made of a string of diamonds, each likely over a carat, with small diamond tassels around them, making the diamonds even more dazzling. The centerpiece was arge sapphire, clear and wless, with a perfect cut that showcased its extraordinary charm.
It was undoubtedly a priceless ne.
“For me?” Catherine looked at Branden with a puzzled expression.
Branden nodded and chuckled. “Who else would I give it to?”
After getting a definite answer, Catherine became even more puzzled. ” Why suddenly give me such a valuable gift?”
“Do you not like it?” Branden frowned, his expression somewhat indescribable.
“Perhaps no girl would refuse such a gift!” Catherine smiled wryly. “It’s just that it’s so expensive.”
Although she wasn’tcking in money, she never indulged in luxury or pursued designer brands or jewelry.
“If you like it, keep it.” Branden took the ne from the box and gently ced it around Catherine’s neck.
Today, Catherine happened to be wearing a top with a wide neckline, showcasing her perfect neck. The sparkling ne, against her wless skin, looked even more beautiful.
Some people needed fancy jewelry to enhance their beauty, while some could make the already dazzling jewelry even more beautiful. Catherine was thetter. When she wore this priceless ne, it looked even more attractive.
Branden also realized that despite being with Catherine for so long, he seemed to have not given her many gifts. Catherine was so special that he thought nothing in this world seemed worthy of her.
“I haven’t given you gifts before, but when I saw this ne today, I felt it suited you, so I bought it,” Branden exined. He hadn’t given her anything because he took care of everything for her, from clothes and shoes to jewelry and bags. He wondered if there was a need to give her separate gifts.
Catherine looked at Branden with a sweet smile and said, “In that case, I’ll keep it. It’s a beautiful ne, and I love it!”
Seeing her sweet smile, he felt relieved. Although in his eyes, these jewelry pieces didn’t match her, he realized that no girl would be unhappy to receive a gift, and Catherine was no exception. He decided he needed to collect more beautiful gifts to keep the freshness of their love.
After a while, they arrived at a luxurious hotel. As the car stopped, a waiter respectfully opened the door. The hotel manager immediately weed them. “Mr. Duncan, your reservation is ready. Shall I take you and Miss Swann there now?”
Branden nodded slightly and then linked arms with Catherine.
Although the hotel was one of the old luxury hotels in Loxton, it had recently beenpletely renovated. It was said that this restaurant was currently the most popr and luxurious one in Loxton, highly sought after for dates and proposals. With only three tables avable each day, reservations were booked a year in advance.
Today, the entire restaurant was booked by Branden.
Upon arrival, the manager greeted them and carefully introduced the restaurant’s features. The owner had personally called to emphasize the importance of not offending the VIP guests.

Branden paid little attention to the manager’s introduction, his gaze fixed on Catherine. “Do you like it?” he asked.
Catherine looked out through the enormous windows, feeling as if she were floating in the sky. “It looks amazing,” she replied, and Branden breathed a sigh of relief.
After observing Branden discreetly for a while, the manager felt much more at ease. “This is the menu, Mr. Duncan.”
Branden signaled for the menu, which the manager promptly handed to Catherine. After ordering, Branden asked Catherine to sit while he excused himself.
Not long after Branden left, the sound of a melodious piano filled the air. Catherine instinctively turned to look and was pleasantly surprised. There he was, dressed in a gray suit, resembling a prince, seated at the magnificent piano. His skilled fingers danced across the keys, producing a beautiful, enchanting melody.
Catherine rested her chin on her hand, her eyes filled with joy. She admitted that at that moment, she truly felt the romance and surprise.
