Chapter 515 A Hot Body
Early in the morning, Catherine reluctantly woke up in a haze of smoke, feeling groggy and tired.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the man beside her, shirtless and looking like a noble deity from mythology.
On the handsome and delicate face of the man, there lay a cigarette between his thin lips. His slightly raised brow showed a hint of sadness.
This was the first time Catherine had seen Branden smoke in front of her.
She knew Branden smoked, but in her memory, he had never smoked in front of her, not even letting her catch a whiff of the smell.
Last night, Branden persistently lingered with her in s*x and finally released her with reluctance until dawn. She was too tired to say anything, so she just closed her eyes and turned around to fall into a deep sleep.
When he noticed the movement beside him, Brandenâs eyes flashed with a panic. His first response was to put out the cigarette in his hand.
Having no time to find an ashtray, he snuffed out the cigarette butt with his fingers.
âDid I wake you up?â
His deep voice carried a hoarseness, and it was mesmerizing.
âNo!â Catherine groaned, raising her arms high in the air and stretching lazily.
She had amazingly fair skin, and she practically glowed when the sunlight shone on her.
The purplish-red marks, set against her immaculate skin, shone even brighter like dazzling roses in full bloom.
After he took a glance, Brandenâs eyes were filled with heat.
He was worried that if things continued like this, he wouldnât be able to hold it anymore.
As Catherine experienced sex for the first time, even with an excellent physical condition, she couldnât withstand such long sex.
Branden tilted his head and looked away, then turned around and said to Catherine, âIâm gonna get you some food!â
The grey silk quilt slipped off his body as he moved, revealing his strong and robust physique.
He appeared slim with his clothes on, but when he took off his clothes, one might see some sexy muscles.
âThe bare upper body, the tanned skin, not a single trace of excess fat on the whole body, a perfect inverted triangle shape, truly captivating entity. I am not at a loss in sleeping with him.â thought Catherine.
She propped her elbow on the pillow, half-closed her eyes, and admired Brandenâs exquisite figure.
Half an hour later, Branden walked into the bedroom carrying the cooked meal.
When Catherine was lazy and not getting out of bed before, Branden would also bring food into the bedroom like this.
However, Catherine wasnât going to have her meal in the bedroom today. The whole place was filled with this weird smell that was totally killing her appetite.
Focus was crucial when having delicious food.
Branden would always grant whatever was requested by Catherine.
The food that had been brought over was put back on the table. Catherine sat at the dining table. Considering that she had just woken up, Branden cooked a relatively bland meal.
He also prepared a glass of rose liqueur for her. Catherine drank quite a bit of alcohol last night, and her voice was hoarse.
This rose liqueur was just perfect. It immediately awakened her soul.
After finishing cooking the oatmeal, Branden placed it at Catherineâs side.
âI heard you agreed to go to Styre University?â
It didnât surprise Catherine that Branden was aware of her choice.
This was not a secret. She presumed it must have already been spread within the school yesterday.
Branden had always cared about her every move, and it was inevitable that he would know it.
Catherine gave a half-hearted response. âThereâs only Styre University to choose from domestically, and that old man Marshall Hartley doesnât seem to have a bad temper!â
The nationally renowned expert was notorious for being difficult to deal with. Even some leaders had to be respectful to him. However, he was a good-natured old man in Catherineâs eyes.
She was probably the only one who dared to say that. Styre University was definitely good domestically, but it was like its name, mysterious and serious.
Catherine was a carefree and unconstrained person. With so many rules and regulations in this university, Branden worried she wouldnât adapt well.
âHey, how about I help you switch to a different college?â he asked.
âItâs just a small matter of going to college, causing so much trouble and inconvenience. What a hassle!â thought Catherine.
She didnât even think twice before rejecting Brandenâs offer. âNo thanks. Iâm going to Styre University!â
Branden looked at her with affectionate eyes and a doting expression. âAlright then. Weâll go to Styre University!â
Located in Loxton, Styre University was several hundred miles away from Casier.
Catherine put down her bowl and gave Branden a cold stare.
âDo you want me to stay in Casier?â she asked.
Branden immediately understood what Catherine meant, and of course, he wouldnât separate from Catherine.
It might be a bit troublesome if Catherine applied to study abroad now.
But if she were to stay in the country, Branden could visit Loxton, where the former residence of the Duncans was located, without any geographical restrictions.
âIf you go to Styre University, then Iâll go to Loxton. If you stay in Casier, then Iâll also be in Casier!â
Catherine could tell that Branden was trying to move his business to Loxton.
She raised an eyebrow, her beautiful eyes slowly turning, giving off a hint of flirtatious glances toward Branden.
âYou said that the Duncan Corporationâs future development was in Oceanvile, but now it has changed to Loxton?â
In the face of Catherineâs temptation, Branden showed no fear and leaned toward her, saying, âThe future of the Duncan Corporation is wherever you are!â
Initially, he planned to go to Oceanville, but Catherine would be in Loxton for the next few years.
Therefore, the Duncan Corporation would make Loxton its main direction. Moreover, there was that bastard Erick in Oceanvile. He didnât want to have someoneâs eyes glued to his woman all the time.
After returning to her small apartment, Liana was about to lose it when she saw the cramped space and the pile of takeout boxes on the table.
She angrily threw her handbag, unable to contain her temper any longer.
âHave you had enough? Whatâs the difference between you guys and the stinky bugs living in a garbage pile?â
Korbin turned his head and stared at Liana with a stern look. He couldnât believe that his little daughter would talk to him with such an attitude one day.
âAre you trying to defy me now, Liana?â
âBack in the day, my dad used to be all high and mighty, but now not only canât he lift his head because of Catherineâs oppression, but heâs also left with nothing thanks to Catherine.
âMy mom stays at my grandparentsâ house all day and doesnât want to come back,â said Liana inwardly.
With the humiliation she received, Liana couldnât control her temper anymore.
She shouted angrily at Korbin, âWhy donât you shout at Catherine, huh? If youâre so capable, why did you let all of Grandpaâs assets end up in the hands of that jinx?â
Korbin had become a complete mess during the past few days. Branden had cut off all his resources.
None of his old friends were willing to help him.
He could only be a bum at home, being a useless loser.
Unexpectedly, he was scolded by his own young daughter. Korbin could no longer control his temper and stood up in anger, eyes blazing with fury as he looked at Liana.
âYou damn girl, youâ¦â
When faced with a home like this, Liana really had no mood at all.
She was not afraid of Korbin at all now. She picked up her bag and turned around to leave.
When she turned around, she didnât notice Korbinâs difference behind her.
Korbinâs face turned red like a tomato, and he looked super painful. At the very moment when Liana closed the door, Korbin couldnât hold on any longer and collapsed.
