Chapter 613 The Jealous Branden

In the dessert shop, Catherine was still seated on the side, engrossed in playing the game. Ronin and Edson sat across from her. Seeing Edson not leaving, Ronin decided to join him.

He divided the cake and placed it in front of Catherine. “Catherine, try it when you have time. It tastes really good!”

Not to be outdone, Edson presented his gift and affectionately said, “Cassie, this is a bracelet. From the moment I saw it, I felt it was perfect for you!”

Without responding to either of them, Catherine skillfully manipulated the buttons on her phone. In a moment of leisure, she picked up a fork, scooped a spoonful of cake, and tasted it.

Observing Catherine enjoying the cake, Ronin couldn’t help but feel proud. He glanced at Edson with a smug expression.

“Ronin, you’re still as childish as ever!” Edson said nonchalantly.

This remark almost broke Ronin’s composure. Angry but managing to suppress his emotions, Ronin retorted to Edson, “Compared to your pestering, my immaturity is at least appreciated, isn’t it?”

They had known each other for many years, and Catherine had always favored Ronin over Edson. In Ronin’s eyes, Edson’s jealousy stemmed from this. He was envious of Ronin because he was not as favored.

The next moment, Edson’s expression changed. Even though it was subtle and probably unnoticeable to the others, Ronin noticed it.

Ronin had dealt with Edson for so many years; every time Edson got angry, the blue color of his eyes deepened slightly. Ronin knew it very well.

Seeing Edson upset, Ronin felt as if he had won a victory. As the game ended, Catherine casually tossed her phone aside. Everyone eagerly watched as Catherine prepared to speak.

Edson seemed a bit nervous, unsure of how Catherine would react. Usually proud, he felt uncertain in Catherine’s presence.

“Kathy!” Suddenly, a familiar voice caught Catherine’s attention. She instinctively turned her head, and those around her followed suit.

At that moment, many held their breaths, awestruck. “Wow, he’s so handsome!” they exclaimed in their mind.

They thought today truly was a feast for the eyes. They saw three incredibly handsome guys, each outshining the other.

Branden walked confidently toward Catherine, stopping in front of her without sparing a glance at Edson. ” Ready to go?” He gazed at Catherine’s beautiful face, and his tone was gentle.

“Yes,” Catherine replied, standing up. Branden took her hand without hesitation. Catherine didn’t resist, allowing Branden to lead her away.

Ronin watched as Branden, with Catherine in tow, left. The sight of Edson’s gloomy face cheered him up, and he even couldn’t help but hum a tune.

Edson’s face darkened completely as he threw the gift box toward Ronin. “It’s yours!”

Ronin accepted it gladly. After all, only a fool would refuse a gift for nothing. He then shouted after Edson’s retreating figure, “Thanks! Take care. I won’t see you off.”

After Branden led Catherine out of the restaurant, they got into the car. As they got in, Paxton handed over a delicate bag. “Sir.”

Branden took the bag and opened it on the small table in the car, revealing a beautifully crafted chocolate mousse cake. It was the signature product from the dessert shop they were at earlier.

“Do you want some now?” Branden asked gently.

Catherine glanced and realized it was the same cake Ronin had ordered for her. Ronin ordered three different kinds, but she only chose this one.

However, she only took a bite before Edson interrupted, and she lost her appetite for it. It tasted good, but she didn’t eat anymore. Surprisingly, Branden noticed it.

Catherine picked up a fork and took a small bite. The taste was the same, but her mood had changed, making the cake even more delicious.

Branden had found the livestream account after receiving Aidan’s message. He watched the livestream on the way, not missing any of Catherine’s expressions.

“Edson Breen, you’ve got some nerve. To come all the way back from abroad to hit on my woman, do you have a death wish?” he said inwardly.

Sitting in the driver’s seat, Paxton felt the atmosphere in the car tense suddenly, and his hands on the steering wheel couldn’t stop trembling.

Like Branden, he kept an eye on the livestream. The difference was that he did this because he was afraid of something unexpected and was always prepared.

From his observation, he could tell that Catherine was not interested in Edson and was even a bit bored.

‘I didn’t realize Mr. Duncan would be jealous over something like that. As expected, a man in love had no emotional intelligence,’ he thought.

The car smoothly stopped in front of the apartment. Catherine had just finished the last bite of cake as she deftly opened the car door.

Branden followed closely, and once they were back in the apartment, Catherine lay down on the single sofa as usual.

Coming in later, Branden asked in a usual tone, “Are you hungry? Want something to eat?” Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“No, I just had cake. I’m not hungry.” Though the chocolate cake wasn’t large, it tended to be a little too sweet, and Catherine felt a bit full after having a piece. She did not want to eat anything yet.

The man approached, pulling off his tie as he walked. Having come directly from a meeting, he was still in formal wear.

The next moment, just as Catherine felt something strange and turned her head, he had unbuttoned his shirt and leaned in.

He propped his powerful hands on both sides of the sofa, and his deep eyes squinted, fixed on Catherine with intense heat.

Due to the unbuttoning, the shirt casually draped over his shoulders, revealing a strong, bronzed chest, charming and enchanting.

Catherine wasn’t alarmed. Her bright eyes turned slightly, and the upturned ends of her eyes hinted at a trace of charm.

“What do you want to do?” she asked with a deliberately prolonged tone that could captivate and bewitch.

“Heehee.” The man chuckled lowly, his magnetic voice pleasing. “You’ve eaten your fill, and now it should be my turn, right?”

“You want me?” Catherine raised an eyebrow slightly.

Branden nodded without hesitation.

Catherine extended a finger, gently gesturing toward him. Given permission, Branden no longer hesitated. A blaze of anger erupted at this moment.

When Catherine woke up the next day, she realized just how jealous Branden was yesterday. Despite her sturdy physique, she felt like she couldn’t get out of bed the next day.
