Chapter 53 Who Is She

Upon hearing Leonel’s question, Catherine nonchalantly nodded, as if she were unaffected by anything that had transpired. It had taken an hour, which was too long for her.

“I’ve read everything and memorized the main points. There shouldn’t be any problem dealing with the projects of the Swann Corporation. If I have any questions, I’ll contact you!”

Her voice was cold, without warmth or emotion. However, why did it sound sarcastic to him?

Leonel couldn’t help but feel like a fool for offering his support earlier. Did someone like her, who could absorb and memorize so much information in just an hour, truly need his assistance?

Seeing Catherine get up and leave, Leonel quickly followed. He finally understood why Mr. Swann insisted strongly on Catherine returning to inherit the family business.

There would be no hope for the Swann Corporation without Catherine. She could make the Swann Corporation invincible and always stand undefeated in the industry if she wanted.

As they reached the ground floor, Leonel was about to inquire about Catherine’s next destination so he could make the necessary arrangements.

Before he could speak, a tall and imposing man suddenly appeared. This man exuded an air of majesty and seemed to bring a chill with him wherever he went.

Leonel recognized him as Paxton, Branden’s assistant.

However, what was Paxton doing here? Leonel turned his head to look at Catherine beside him.

Catherine showed no surprise at Paxton’s presence, as if it wouldn’t faze her no matter who appeared.

Paxton maintained a stoic expression as he gazed at Catherine, who reciprocated with a cold and frigid look in her eyes. Paxton respectfully bowed.

“Miss Swann, Mr. Duncan heard you are at the Swann Corporation’s office, so he is here to see you. Please follow me.”

Catherine furrowed her brow upon hearing Paxton’s words.

It was said that this man was distant and aloof, and yet he stuck to her like a shadow, which was unexpected.

However, she wasn’t surprised that Branden knew her whereabouts.

After all, the Duncans wouldn’t have dominated the city of Casier for so many years if they

didn’t have this ability.

Catherine wondered what Branden wanted this time. He had previously treated her to dinner and presented a business project. What was his purpose today?

Nevertheless, Catherine disliked dwelling on matters she couldn’t know. She looked up at Paxton, who immediately understood her unspoken request.

He gestured respectfully, signaling for Catherine to follow him.

Catherine departed, leaving Leonel behind in front of the building

Leonel knew that Catherine was Branden’s fiancée, so it didn’t make sense for him to accompany them as the third wheel.

Branden’s car awaited them at the door, with Paxton opening the door for Catherine.

When the car door opened, Catherine saw the attractive and wicked face inside the car.

Countless attractive people existed in the world, but it was rare to encounter someone as eye-

catching as him.

Combined with his aura, he was truly one in a million.

Catherine seated herself in the car, and as she did, Branden’s intense gaze, accompanied by at faint, elusive smile, locked onto her.

Catherine returned his gaze, her expression icy and her eyes indifferent. Yet, her slightly raised eyes seemed to silently question Branden’s purpose for coming to see her.

Observing Catherine’s demeanor, Branden found her even more intriguing.

She was like a captivating puzzle, and the closer he got, the more challenging it became to find.

a solution.

He had received earlier news that Catherine had gone to the Swann Corporation to prepare for assuming the role of chairperson.

Did she truly believe she could take over that position?

Branden initially considered it nearly impossible when he heard the news, but he wouldn’t mind assisting her if that was her desire.

To his surprise, upon rushing over, he learned that almost every shareholder had agreed to have Catherine as the new chairperson.

The situation astonished him

Once again, Catherine had turned the impossible into the possible, leaving him perplexed as to

how she achieved it. From that moment on, he began to believe that she might be the one to succeed in the three-month agreement with the Swanns.

Branden extended his hand toward Catherine, his slender and fair fingers waiting for her to Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

shake them.

“Congratulations, Miss Swann!”

He purposefully elongated the pronunciation of her name. His voice was deep and magnetic, and the way he spoke added to his charm. It was impossible to resist his allure.

Even Catherine, who usually remained unaffected by the outside world, felt her heart quicken. Her gaze shifted to his hand, noting the distinct joints, slender fingers, and meticulously rounded nails, which displayed an attention to detail.

However, Catherine chose not to shake hands with Branden.

Although she didn’t dislike him, she didn’t enjoy physical contact with others, regardless of

their attractiveness.

With a touch of indifference and aloofness in her voice, she replied, “Thank you.”

Paxton, seated in the driver’s seat, couldn’t help but feel shocked. He had never witnessed anyone behave this way toward his boss. It was indeed a rare sight. His back was drenched, and he felt nervous for Catherine.

If his boss became furious, Catherine might be in trouble..

However, his shock intensified in the next moment.

Branden didn’t seem offended by Catherine’s arrogant attitude. He gracefully withdrew his hand, showing no embarrassment or offense.

Branden truly lived up to his reputation, remaining composed and elegant despite the rejection.

“Now that the matter with the Swann Corporation has been settled, where would you like to go? It’s lunchtime. Shall we have lunch together?”

Catherine regarded him with a peculiar look. Why did this man always bring up food?

“No, I just need a place to take a nap!”

Branden didn’t agree with Catherine’s decision this time or even ask for her opinion before making his own.

Because he knew that if he asked, he would be rejected.

He coldly instructed Paxton, who was before him, “Drive to Le Bouchon!”

Le Bouchon was a private dining establishment, and just by its elegant name, Catherine could discern that it offered foreign cuisine.

As they arrived at the restaurant, Branden alighted from the car first and then turned, walked towards Catherine, and personally opened the car door, waiting for her to exit.

Prior to their arrival, Paxton had already informed the restaurant to prepare for Branden’s

visit.

The restaurant staff, aware of Branden’s identity, became serious upon hearing that he was coming, eagerly anticipating the arrival of this distinguished guest.

However, they were taken aback when they saw this prominent figure opening the door for someone else after he himself had alighted from the car.

Could it be that there was an even more prominent figure in the car than the heir of the Duncans?

Catherine glanced at the scenery outside the car window. Although it was an artificial environment, the decoration was exquisite.

Since she hadn’t eaten yet, she thought it would be suitable to have something to eat, considering the ambiance.

Everyone noticed her long, slender legs as she stepped out of the car.

The next moment, they were astonished by her stunning appearance. Even with a simple white T shirt, her delicate face made people forget about her outfit.

She possessed such natural beauty that she would look fabulous, even in pajamas.
