Chapter 941 We Are Friends
Catherine followed Thomas to Aaron’s courtyard, where they found Aaron and Rn ying chess. Thomas recognized Rn and nced at Catherine. “What is he doing here?”
Catherine casually replied, “He’s the ungrateful grandson Aaron mentioned. Thomas frowned, surprised by this unexpected connection.
Upon hearing Catherine’s words, Aaronughed. “Miss Swann is right; this is my ungrateful grandson.” He then urged Rn to give up his seat to Thomas.
“Please have a seat, Mr. Theo,” said Rn as he stood up.
Thomas sat down and nced at Catherine, who said, “I’ll take a stroll. Aaron’s courtyard is lovely.”
The courtyard, meticulously tended for generations, exuded charm in every detail, which Catherine appreciated.
“Do you like this courtyard?” A deep, gentle voice came from behind her, quite pleasant.
Catherine turned to Rn. “It feels veryfortable to be here,” she replied.”
Rn agreed, “I like it too.”
As Catherine quietly strolled and admired the scenery, Rn stood nearby, silently watching her. After a while, Catherine grew tired and sat down. A servant brought her a cup of coffee and some snacks. The fragrant coffee and delightful snacks provided a pleasant break.
“Care to join me for a cup of coffee?” she asked.
Catherine’s invitation caught Rn off guard. A faint smile graced his face as he took a seat opposite her.
Catherine raised an eyebrow, asking, ” Why do you look so surprised?”
Rn honestly admitted, “I thought you’d despise me. I didn’t expect you to invite me for coffee.”
Catherine chuckled. “We are friends, and you haven’t done anything wrong. Why should I despise you?” Her simple words left Rn speechless.
It was only after a long while that Rn finally broke the silence. “Is everything okay?”
“Yeah, I’m perfectly fine,” she replied.
Rn’s voice was barely audible as he murmured, “That’s good.”
Catherine didn’t respond, quietly enjoying her coffee and the beautiful scenery.
Later, while having dinner with Thomas, Catherine received a call from Withal. “Catherine, Ronin has filled you in, right?”
“Yes,” Catherine replied calmly, showing no change in expression. “Any updates?”
Withal replied, “Yes, I found something. Do you want to take a look?
Catherine then ordered him to email the information and promptly ended the call.Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
Thomas, noticing the abrupt ending of the call, remarked, “Didn’t you n to rest for half a day? Now you’re back to work?”
Catherine nodded, remaining silent.
Thomasined to Aaron, “Young people don’t take care of themselves. I told her to rest for half a day, but here she is, thinking about work again!”
Aaron’s eyes darkened as he sighed. It’s true. They never take care of themselves.”
Rn’s eyes darkened at these words.
