Chapter 123 Give Me a Ride

With the end of the barbecue, the conflict was sort of put to rest. What followed was the big question of who would send Catherine back.

The men were at odds with each other. Bryan didn’t dare to fight with Branden, but he was bold enough to fight with Ronin!

Ronin was young and had no fear of them. Although he was intimidated by Branden’s aura deep inside, he didn’t hesitate to choose Catherine when he was in front of her.

Catherine had no idea how she had, all of a sudden, become the lead in their fight. Did she need them to tell her how to go back?

While the few men were at a standstill, Catherine was already heading towards Ronin’s underground garage.

Several motorcycles were parked inside the garage, all of which were Ronin’s, and the keys were all inside the slot.

Without hesitation, Catherine picked one of them and straddled it handsomely. Then, she turned back and waved her hand at them. “Gotta go!

The few of them returned to their senses. Seeing Catherine trying to ride the motorcycle by herself, they knew there was no hope of giving her a ride.

Just when Catherine arrived at the gate of the neighborhood on her motorcycle, she raised her head and saw the man at the entrance of the alley in front of her.

The man stood under the streetlight, leaning against the wall. The yellowish streetlight poured on his body, lengthening his reflection infinitely.

His cold and stunning temperament made people notice him at a glance. The motorcycle roared. Branden slowly looked up and saw Catherine come to a stop at his side.

Catherine looked at the man in front of her. With his charming eyes narrowed, a faint smile escaped his cold face. “You’re quite fast!”

After getting out of Ronin’s house, she rode a motorcycle while he walked there. He left later than her but still managed to be here earlier.

Even if he had taken a shortcut, there was no way he could have gotten ahead of her without some skill. Catherine sized Branden up and down and suddenly felt that this man was a bit unfathomable.

Branden’s face was handsome and flawless. His thin lips were curled up into a faint smile, and his eyes were upturned as he looked straight at her. “Kathy, can you give me a ride?”

Although he did not smoke, his voice was hoarse and low, with a hint of seductive magnetism. It made people unable to reject his words.

In Catherine’s frozen seconds, the man had already straddled the motorcycle. His movements were even smoother and faster than hers.

When Catherine reacted, she could only start her motorcycle and ride away. Catherine took Branden’s words seriously and sent him to the Duncans’.

She could only send him there because this was the only place she knew where Branden was staying. As for other places, she didn’t know much about them.

After arriving at the Duncans’, Branden took the initiative to get off the motorcycle and didn’t pester Catherine.

In the darkness of the night, his large, bright eyes were as bright as thousands of stars. His gaze slowly fell on Catherine before he gently said, ” Thank you, Kathy!”

Catherine realized that she couldn’t stand Branden’s voice when he spoke to her in such a way. It would put her into a state of obsession. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Shooting a glance at him, Catherine turned back, started the motorcycle, and disappeared into the darkness of the night. Triston happened to see the scene as he drove Bryan back. Bryan despised Branden’s behavior to the fullest.

Although he didn’t dare to rebel against Branden openly, he still cursed angrily through clenched teeth as he passed by Branden, “Despicable!”

Branden slowly shot a cold gaze at Bryan. Bryan’s heart skipped a beat out of fear when he saw Branden’s expression. He grabbed his school bag and rushed into the house.

Triston was laughing crazily as he watched them from the side. He had never thought that a person like Branden would cause public anger one day.

Just now, they were discussing how to get back home, and when they turned around, they realized Branden had already left. They didn’t expect him to do this behind their backs.

With his arms crossed over his chest, Triston pouted his lips and nodded at Branden. “Mr. Duncan, I do think that what Bryan said makes sense.”

Branden looked up and raised his eyebrows, staring scornfully at Triston with icy eyes. Then, he said coldly,” Want to get beaten up?”

Frightened, Triston hurriedly shook his head and changed his attitude. He looked at Branden with a fawning smile and said, “Of course not! I just think your tactic is brilliant. I’m afraid I’ll never be a match for you. I’ll learn from you in the future.”

Before he could finish, Branden frowned impatiently and said in disgust, “Get lost!”

Triston didn’t dare to disobey, so he quickly turned around and left. Catherine’s agreement to attend the school gala spread throughout the entire class the next day.

It was unlikely for George to spread the news. He didn’t have the guts to offend Catherine. It was only because the school had a rule that the reported program had to be made public.

The crowd was stunned to see that Catherine had actually prepared a singing performance. She was so majestic and usually wouldn’t say a single extra word. But now, she was actually going to give a singing performance on stage. The scene would be…

Liana sneered deep down when she saw the news. She thought, “How could a country bumpkin like Catherine know how to sing?

“I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to find a chance to crush her, but it seems like that chance has come to me automatically.

“This is a perfect opportunity to take the wind out of Catherine’s sails. I want the whole school to know who the real princess of the Swanns is. “Catherine will never be able to steal my limelight!”

Ronin was excited to hear that Catherine’s performance was singing. He was incredibly nimble with his fingers and had taken drum lessons for a while to train his wrist strength.

During the class break, he approached Catherine and said, “Boss, is it okay if I perform with you? I’ll play the drums for you. You still remember I know how to play the drums, right?”

If someone asked Ronin to perform on stage alone, he’d rather be killed than perform individually. But with Catherine, that would be different. He was willing to do whatever he was asked to do as long as Catherine was around.

Hearing Ronin’s offer, Catherine didn’t think there was any problem. She knew that Ronin could play the drums. Back then, she had sent Ronin to a training class.

But later, he came back after only taking one lesson. He then learned how to play the drums by himself on his computer, performing better than anyone else.

It wasn’t much of a problem to have an extra person on stage for the performance. Since Ronin wanted to be on the stage with her, Catherine agreed. She nodded and said, “Okay!”

Ronin was happy about this. “Thank you, Boss!”

Just the thought of being able to perform on the same stage with Catherine made Ronin excited, and he couldn’t contain the smile on his face. Bryan watched the two’s expressions from the side, and inwardly, he despised Ronin.

He cursed inwardly, “Do you think you’re a three-year-old child? It’s a shame to pretend to be cute and beg for Boss’s affection. You’re just as shameless as Branden.

“Don t you just know how to play the drums? What’s the big deal? I’ll go back to learn the guitar tonight. I’ll also perform on stage with Boss. I don’t believe you’re the only one who can do that! Humph!”

At this moment, Catherine’s cell phone on the table buzzed. She looked up at it  and found there was a message from the bank.

[Dear Miss Swann, you have received a transfer of 500,000.00 dollars.]
