Chapter 275 Who Else but Branden?

Grayson, standing on the stage, saw Catherine’s sleeping face and smiled helplessly. Because it was just a small concert that was purely held as a way to express his gratitude toward his loyal fans on his birthday, it wasn’t made particularly grand.

The originally planned three songs, plus an encore requested by fans, were performed. The concert came to an end.

As soon as the concert ended, Ronin reached out and tapped Catherine, waking her up. Catherine opened her eyes in a dazed state and looked at Ronin with a somewhat hazy gaze, asking, “Is it over?”

“Yeah, Boss, it’s over. I received a message from Grayson. He invites us to meet at the secure passage,” Ronin said while handing her a cup of moderately warm coffee.

Watching this, Yesenia was full of envy. Grayson’s singing just now was so amazing, and she, just like other fans at the venue, screamed wildly. Now, her throat felt as dry as if it were on fire.

All her water had gone, and she couldn’t even take another sip. There was a regulation for the concert that each person was allowed to bring in one bottle of water.

Ronin didn’t even drink it himself, leaving a cup of coffee he brought in for Catherine. He really provided excellent service.

Catherine was completely unaware of what had happened. As they walked into the secret passage arranged by Grayson’s security, Ronin enthusiastically revealed what had happened earlier.

“Boss, Grayson just expressed his gratitude and thanks to you on stage. Can’t imagine this kid knows how to repay kindness.”

“If one day, I get the chance to express my gratitude to you on a stage, I’ll definitely do it so that the whole world can see!”

Ronin had been by Catherine’s side even before Grayson arrived. He had always been following her lead, with only the thought of protecting and taking care of her in his mind. He had known Grayson for many years, and in his opinion, Grayson’s kindness towards Catherine was the same as his own. It was admiration and reverence!

“Is that so?” Catherine responded casually, her face showing no emotion. Perhaps it was because Ronin expressed his gratitude and appreciation to her every day, and she had long been accustomed to it.

Bryan stood aside, sneering coldly, thinking to himself that Ronin was truly an emotional fool. Even he could tell that something was off. Ronin, however, couldn’t even sense the strangeness in the situation.

Grayson’s gaze towards Catherine was so affectionate. There was surely a problem.

“How dare that guy say such things to Boss on the stage!” Bryan bellowed inwardly. “If I don’t do something, I’d disgrace the Duncans!”

“Oh, here you are!”

A slightly hoarse voice came from behind, and everyone turned around. They saw Grayson leaving his assistant behind and rushing towards them. Throughout the entire time, Grayson’s eyes were focused on Catherine. He waved his hand to greet her.

Catherine was about to respond when she felt a vibration in her pocket. She glanced around and lowered her head to pick up her phone, placing it by her ear.

“Looking for me?”

“Yeah!” A deep and attractive voice came through the receiver, different from Grayson’s deliberately trained deep voice. Branden’s voice sounded even deeper. It was the kind of voice that truly made anyone who heard it fall for it, piercing through their eardrum and striking the deepest part of their soul.

“Went to a concert?” the man asked, and Catherine hummed in response. Branden continued, “It’s about time for dinner. Shall I pick you up?”

Catherine could tell that it was a tentative suggestion.

“Why don’t you come along? I can’t leave for now!” Since Catherine had promised Yesenia and the others to have dinner together, she didn’t want to go back on her word.

“Alright, give me the address. I’ll come over later!” After Branden finished speaking, he waited for Catherine to hang up before putting away his phone.

Triston watched in awe from the side. All of his rare moments of shock and amazement in life were dedicated to Branden.

He never expected that Branden, the usually icy and aloof tycoon, could be so gentle when talking to his girlfriend over the phone.

The brief moment of tenderness made Triston forget his fear of Branden. He immediately pounced on Branden, tugging at Branden’s sleeve. “Mr. Duncan, I want to go too!”

How could he, the gossip expert, miss out on this scene of avenging the adulterer?

Branden remained unmoved, and Paxton, who was beside Triston, stepped in. Triston was directly thrown out of the hall! Triston shouted in frustration, “Mr. Duncan, you can’t just throw me out like that. I will be very helpful!”

Ronin approached Catherine after she hung up the phone. “Boss, is someone else coming?”

“Yeah.” Catherine nodded slightly, not wanting to say much more. Ronin knew what she meant. Who else could make Catherine answer the phone personally besides Branden?

Grayson had been keeping an eye on Catherine. He noticed the change in her expression when she took the call.

He knew that Catherine was always cold and aloof, treating everything and everyone with the same cold demeanor. He had assumed that Catherine was always like this and that she would never change for anyone.

But during that brief phone call, Grayson had sensed something different. Her eyes were different. There was a light of joy in them. It turned out she was able to treat others in a gentle way, but she wouldn’t treat him like that.

Grayson felt a pang of discomfort, like a needle piercing his heart, but he still smiled and tried to act normal. “Boss, can we go now?”

Catherine nodded slightly. “Yeah. Let’s go,” They went to a very secluded restaurant. It was highly private, and reservations had to be made well in advance.

Grayson was a member, and since it was his birthday, he received special treatment and didn’t even have to make a reservation.

But they didn’t expect to run into Loraine in the restaurant’s lobby. They hadn’t seen her since their last encounter at the resort. That made sense. They lived in different circles, so they didn’t cross paths often.

Ronin was the first to notice Loraine. He rolled his eyes. leaned in towards Catherine, and whispered, “Boss, we must have missed our lucky day today. We’ve encountered another troublemaker!”

Catherine followed his gaze and saw Loraine. Their eyes met, and sparks of hostility flew. Loraine walked towards them. The last time they had seen her at the resort, things hadn’t ended well. Now, no one knew what would happen.

Even Yesenia unconsciously tightened her nerves and prepared for the worst.
