Chapter 342 Afraid Catherine Might Dump You

“Brat, don’t push it!” Sean raised his leg and kicked the chair Erick sat on. Erick turned around and glared at Sean with his cold and sharp gaze as if he would skin Sean alive if he could.

Even someone ruthless like Sean was taken aback by that look. Erick might look weak and thin, but he was like a wolf pup. He could be fierce and ruthless if he were provoked.

Sean would never risk his safety to deal with someone like Erick unless necessary. Since he could not deal with Eric the hard way, he could only negotiate with him.

“Hey, although Catherine did sing well, aren’t you bored listening to the cuts of her singing hundreds of times? Can you please play something else?”

Erick had gotten the information from somewhere that Catherine was joining the competition on a live broadcast show.

So, he woke up early and sat before the television, waiting for Catherine’s turn to perform. After Catherine performed, he closed the live broadcast and cropped the part where Cathrine sang, playing it countless times in a loop.

Most importantly, he watched the video countless times. Others might even think he was trying to look for something through the video.

Erick glanced at Sean coldly upon hearing his question. Ignoring Sean, he continued to watch the performance seriously.

Sean did not know what to say. He had no idea why Catherine left this boy at his place. His place was turning into a shelter for people experiencing homelessness.

Sean understood that if he continued pestering Erick, Erick might fight with him. So, Sean decided to seek another approach and called Catherine to ask her to deal with this matter. Meanwhile, Korbin was in his villa. His assistant was reporting the latest information he got to him.

“Mr. Swann, Erick is now in the black market. He is being held captive by the boss of the black market.”

Korbin puffed the cigar and spoke in his hoarse voice. “Is this information accurate?”

The secretary handed a few blurry pictures to Korbin. Although unclear, he could still see that the young man in the photos was Erick.

“No wonder we failed to find him even after searching Casier inside out. So, he is now in the black market!” A sinister smile appeared on Korbin’s face. He seemed to be confident about getting Erick.

“Send these photos to the Winfreds. Ask Xavier to look for us if he needs us.”

The assistant was efficient and immediately sent the Winfreds the photos. When Xavier received the photos, he sent a precious gift to the Swanns to express his gratitude on the Winfreds’ behalf.

The Winfreds were not as powerful as the Swanns in Casier. Although Xavier knew Erick was in the black market, he could not get Erick out of that place. They still had to rely on the Xavier family’s help.

The assistant told Korbin the information he brought back from the Winfreds, “Mr. Swann, the Winfreds had sent over the document. The planning department had checked it, and they had discussed the details. The Winfreds intend to ask for our help to get Erick out. If we can hand Erick over to them, they would sign the contract, and the deal would be done!”

Korbin squinted his eyes as he looked at the document before him. A glimpse of malicious intent flashed across Korbin’s sharp eyes.

“Xavier is cunning. He had planned everything well and left no room for us to take advantage of him.”

“Mr. Swann, what should we do about this? Should we agree to the Winfreds’ request?” asked the assistant.

“Of course. Why can’t we agree? Arrange someone to get Erick out of the black market, no matter what,” said Korbin, giving a new order.

“Noted.” The assistant nodded and went to make the arrangements. Catherine had just arrived at the barbecue shop when she received Sean’s call, complaining to her about Erick in a long-winded manner. It made her frown. She snapped coldly. “Cut it short.”

Sean, who had wanted to tell Catherine his grief and complaints about Erick, immediately stopped complaining once he heard Catherine’s cold and impatient voice.

He went straight to the point. ” Catherine, can you please take this brat away with you? My black market is turning into a homeless shelter now.”

Before Sean could continue his request, Catherine cut off the call. She disliked it when Sean was whiny. After hanging up the call, Catherine got back into the private room.

Looking at her walking in, Branden pulled the chair for her to sit naturally. Catherine’s empty bowl was again filled with her favorite grilled food.

The meat in her bowl was still hot. It seemed that he had just grilled it for her. Catherine looked at the man beside her. His beautiful eyes were looking at her with anticipation. That melted her heart and made her less irritated. Even her puckered eyebrows loosened.

The man smiled upon seeing her, and his gaze on her eas gentle. His soothing and deep voice sounded gentle as he spoke, “Have some more barbecued meat before it gets cold.”

Triston, sitting opposite them, was stunned. He subconsciously wanted to fork the hot meat and eat it, yet the hot meat almost burned him. To prevent being embarrassed, Triston endured the pain and swallowed the meat.

He felt aggrieved that he had to see the couple acting lovey-dovey and even got burned by his favorite barbecue.

It made him realize he should not be there with them. He regretted having this meal with them. After dinner, Catherine left the barbecue shop with Branden and Triston. Just as she left the shop, her phone beeped.

It was a message.

Catherine looked at the message and let go of Branden’s hand. Branden noticed it and looked at her in a puzzle. He asked curiously, “Do you have something to deal with?”

“Yes.” Catherine nodded. She was about to leave. Then, she stopped as if she had just remembered something. She turned around and looked at Branden, promising. “I’ll tell you about this later when I get back.”

Branden’s displeased face calmed down instantly, and his gaze was softer.

“Okay. Call me when you are done. I’ll pick you up.”

“Okay!”

After Catherine left, Triston quickly approached Branden, wanting to gossip. “Mr Duncan, Catherine has left just like that. Aren’t you going to ask what she is going to do or where she is going? Aren’t you afraid she might dump you and run away? After all, she is young and beautiful…”She was even cool. Many guys like girls like her.

Triston did not tell Branden everything on his mind because Branden had already glared at him when he praised Catherine for being beautiful. That gaze was so scary that Triston was alarmed.

“Please don’t misinterpret my words. I am just concerned.”

Branden snorted as he glanced at Triston coldly. He said in disdain, ” Only those useless men would be afraid of losing their girlfriends.”

Then, he got into the car without looking back. Just as he closed the door, Paxton drove off. Only Triston was left standing before his shop in a daze. After a few seconds, he realized he had been mocked.

Branden was indicating he was a useless man.
