Chapter 777 You Better Be

Upon hearing movement upstairs, Zobber, who had been somewhat bored in the living room, looked up. Then, she saw Branden holding Catherine as they descended the stairs. Catherine’s cheeks were rosy, exuding a sweet aura.

Zobber couldn’t help but tease her, Catherine, did you two just finish exercising? Indeed, young people are full of energy.”

Catherine gave a cold smile and looked her up and down. “What? You want to exercise too? Come on. Let’s do this.”

Zobber was puzzled, looking at Catherine in amazement. “Catherine, are you into both men and women?”

Without a word, Catherine dashed forward. Zobber couldn’t dodge in time and was swiftly thrown over her shoulder.

Seeing the two of them fighting, Branden walked over, feeling pleased. Paxton brought him a glass of water, saying, “Boss, have some water, please.

Branden took the glass of water and brushed the dust off his shoulder, instructing Paxton, “Arrange for a massage therapist; she needs it.” Since Zobber had taken the brunt of it for him, he had to do something to make her feel better.

Paxton, upon hearing this, felt somewhat gleeful. “Boss, I’ll go right away!”

Zobber dodged Catherine’s attack and took the opportunity to catch her breath. She knew she wasn’t a match for Catherine. Being a sparring partner only meant getting beaten. She immediately raised her hands and begged for mercy from Catherine. ”

Catherine, I was wrong. I promise not to talk back next time. You should find Ronin to spar with. He’s been regressing lately. You should train with him more.”

Ronin, who had been watching the scene, suddenly shouted, “Catherine, don’t listen to this conniving woman! She’s been gossiping about you and Mr. Duncan all morning. She even started a betting pool on whether you two would return last night and made millions of dollars off it.” Ronin looked at Zobber with resentment and spilled all her secrets.

Zobber turned pale with fear, wishing she could strangle Ronin for blabbing, but there was a bigger problem at hand, making it impossible for her to escape easily. She tried to appease Catherine. ” Catherine, it’s all a misunderstanding. I was just…”

“Hmph!” Catherine let out a cold laugh and looked at Zobber coldly. “You want to explain? Fine, but not before I teach you a lesson!”

Sensing the sudden chill in Catherine’s eyes, Zobber realized she’d be in big trouble. She wanted to run, but it was too late.

After a round of “training” by Catherine, Zobber finally collapsed, lying motionless on the ground, calling out to Paxton using her last breath.

Paxton waved his hand to reassure her, “The doctor will be here soon; just hang in there!”

Catherine had completed two rounds of “training” and was drenched in sweat. Her previously sore muscles regained strength, and she felt refreshed.

Seeing Catherine sit down, Branden handed her a glass of freshly squeezed fruit juice. “Would you like to take a shower?”

Catherine drank the juice in one gulp, feeling satisfied despite it not being chilled.

After finishing the juice, she handed the glass back to Branden and stood up. “Wait for me. I’ll take a shower and then accompany you to the company.”

“Okay!” She rarely agreed to accompany Branden to the company, so how could he refuse her invitation?

The Duncan Corporation’s several old companies had recently encountered numerous crises, causing widespread unease. Just the day before, the president of the Duncan Corporation appeared in the meeting room of the subsidiary company, which instantly boosted the employees’ morale. Despite the president’s youth, since he took charge of the Duncan Corporation, the company’s profits rose steadily, with the number of employees and subsidiaries increasing rapidly.

To the Duncan Corporation’s employees, their president was like a stabilizing force. As long as he was there, the Duncan Corporation wouldn’t falter.

In their opinion, this young, handsome, and wealthy president had always been quite mysterious. Surprisingly, many employees saw him entering the company through the main entrance on the ground floor. Since it was already past the time for clocking in, quite a few employees caught sight of him.

It wasn’t unusual for the president to visit the company, but what was truly surprising was that the president was accompanied by a beautiful young lady.

This piece of news instantly spread throughout the Duncan Corporation’s internal network, and everyone knew that he had brought his girlfriend.

Catherine followed alongside Branden, allowing him to hold her hand as they made a high-profile appearance in front of the Duncan Corporation’s employees. Initially, he had intended to go straight up from the underground floor, but unexpectedly, Catherine insisted on entering through the main entrance on the ground floor.

The driver, although not understanding Catherine’s intentions, was sure about one thing-Branden’s orders were not to be disobeyed, and Catherine’s commands were not to be disobeyed by Branden.

Catherine followed alongside Branden, making a high-profile entrance into the office with him. Branden’s secretary promptly followed them into the room. “Mr. Duncan, would you like some coffee today?”

Seeing the secretary not entirely aware of the situation, Paxton quickly gestured, and she immediately inquired of Catherine, “Miss Swann, the fruit today looks good. Would you like a glass of freshly squeezed juice?”

Catherine nodded slightly and then turned her gaze to Branden. “Two glasses.”

The secretary, cautiously glancing at Branden, who was known not to have a sweet tooth and preferred freshly ground black coffee, quickly realized that Catherine wanted two glasses of juice. She feared the consequences if Branden became displeased.

Sensing the secretary’s confusion, Paxton hinted again. “Hurry and prepare.”

The secretary, grateful for Paxton’s guidance, gave a thankful glance to Paxton and then left. As soon as she left, she was surrounded by a group of people.

The secretary said in a mysterious tone, “The lady inside is Mr. Duncan’s girlfriend. Behave yourselves!”

The crowd’s expressions varied, but they all committed the secretary’s words to memory. After all, the chief secretary was always cautious with her words. Now that she warned them to behave themselves, they had to be careful.

Catherine lay comfortably in the armchair, enjoying the snacks prepared by the secretary, feeling incredibly content. “You can deal with the troubles that Shane caused you. Don’t mind me.”

Branden raised an eyebrow as he assessed her. “So you’re not here to help me?”

Catherine looked at him with a smile. ” Who told you I was here to help? I was just bored at home, so I came to the company with you to find a different place to relax. Is that not allowed?”

“You better be!” Branden’s gentle tone carried a hint of warning. Seeing Catherine put on her headphones and start playing games, occasionally spouting some gaming jargon, he felt slightly perplexed. “Is she really here to relax?” he wondered.
