Chapter 641 More Effort is Needed

Catherine noticed that her recent sleep quality had indeed improved. Since she returned yesterday, she has been in a deep sleep state.

It wasn’t until this morning that she slowly woke up. Perhaps due to having enough sleep, Catherine felt exceptionally energetic, and her mood was quite pleasant.

Just as she was about to get up to find Branden, her phone, placed nearby, rang.

Catherine glanced at it and saw it was Ronin calling. She swiped the button and answered the phone.

Ronin’s voice sounded urgent. ”

Catherine, we’re in trouble!”

Catherine calmly walked to the side, poured herself a glass of water to drink, and only then asked unhurriedly, ” What’s the situation?”

“Catherine, I just received a message. Edson is going after Branden, and it’s the kind of situation where he’s willing to do anything.”

Ronin detailed the information he had gathered to Catherine. When he received the message, he was also shocked.

The way the Breens were striking this time didn’t seem like they were simply trying to bring down a business competitor. It felt more like they were willing to sacrifice themselves to take down the other party.

After all, if things continued this way, the Breens themselves would suffer greatly.

After explaining everything, Ronin, seeing Catherine’s lack of response, couldn’t help but ask, “Catherine, Mr. Duncan is still with you in Oceanvile, right? Isn’t he worried at all?”

“Worried?” Catherine sneered. ”

Perhaps he doesn’t even know yet.”

“Ah…” Ronin couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Not know yet? What’s going on?”

This happened last night, and she had spent the entire night with Branden. How could he possibly know the news if he didn’t even answer a phone call?

Ignoring Ronin’s confusion, Catherine ordered, “Arrange Hacker Alliance to keep an eye on Edson. Report immediately if anything happens.”

“Catherine, shouldn’t we lend a hand?” Ronin didn’t quite understand. Edson using the Breens’ power against the Duncan Corporation was, to a significant extent, because of them.

The Duncan Corporation could be said to be implicated by them, so shouldn’t they help a bit?

“No need.” Catherine decisively rejected Ronin’s suggestion.

Between her and Branden, everything was always clear. She would only intervene when the other person’s safety was at stake.

Seeing Catherine’s firm attitude, Ronin could only follow her orders. ” Catherine, will you guys come the day after tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow,” Catherine replied with just one word.

Ronin couldn’t help but chuckle lightly. Although Catherine said she wouldn’t interfere, she was still very concerned.

An originally three-day trip was shortened to two days, but returning early was not just to help the Duncans. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Catherine hung up Ronin’s call and walked out of the room. In the living room, she saw Branden in sportswear, a towel around his neck. It seemed he had just finished exercising, and there was still a hint of warmth on his body.

When Branden’s ice-cold eyes saw Catherine, they involuntarily softened. “Why are you up so early? You can rest a little longer,” he said.

Catherine looked at him gently, a slight upward curve appearing at the corner of her mouth. “I’ve had enough sleep.”

Branden put down the towel around his neck and approached, embracing her waist.

Initially, he just wanted to lead her to the sofa to sit, but as his hands wrapped around her slender waist, he couldn’t help but gently stroke it a few times.

Nowadays, women want to have slimmer waists, but Catherine not only had a slender waist, but her skin was also remarkably smooth and firm.

Branden felt with his hands and couldn’t help but frown. “How is it possible that, after all this time, you haven’t gained any weight?”

He always felt that Catherine was too thin and wanted to help her gain some weight.

She had been fed quite a lot during this period, but Catherine still didn’t gain weight.

Faced with the man’s helplessness, Catherine smiled somewhat smugly. “It

seems like you still need to work hard.”

On her exquisite and stunning face, that faint smile deeply attracted the man’s gaze.

In his eyes, there was a hint of fiery passion, as if two flames were burning fiercely. Branden slightly opened his thin lips, his voice low and magnetic. “Indeed, more effort is needed.”

Branden’s hand applied a little force, and Catherine was gently pulled back, the two falling onto the sofa together.

Catherine propped herself up with her elbow to spread the distance between the two and squinted her eyes, and her beautiful eyes were full of threatening signals. “Public indecency?”

The man stared at Catherine’s exquisite face and gently leaned down. His thin lips brushed past Catherine’s earlobe, bringing a tingling sensation. ” Since you’ve had enough sleep, a little exercise is good for body and mind.”

Catherine glanced at him with a side- eye, staring at him. “In this aspect, your statements are quite varied.”

The man, who usually spoke sparingly, could only say more at times like these.

Facing her teasing, Branden looked at her triumphantly and retorted, “You’re wrong. To be more accurate, I look like this only in front of you.”

His ability to communicate with others in his lifetime was devoted to only Catherine, and the only person he wanted to please was her.

Catherine turned to leave, but Branden’s movements were even faster. While he would usually give way to Catherine, on this matter, Branden stood firm.

With nimble and gentle movements, he pulled her back and pressed down. Finally, Catherine thoroughly succumbed.

The golden sunlight shone through the thin curtains, gently illuminating the two as if a layer of golden light had been added.

The room was filled with romance, accompanied by a hint of ambiguity.

When Catherine woke up again, it was already afternoon. She had initially planned to go to the lab early, help Rodge with things, and then return to Loxton with Branden.

However, she didn’t expect the hormone-overloaded man to disrupt her plans. Catherine turned over and got out of bed. The soreness in her legs made her fall to the ground.

“Damn it…” Catherine cursed softly, propping herself up on the edge of the bed.

Branden heard the movement and came in. By the time he entered, Catherine was already soaking in the bathtub.

Seeing her in the bath, Branden averted his gaze. Even a girl as physically strong as her couldn’t withstand another round of activities.

“Just soak in the bath for a while; dinner is almost ready. After eating, I’ll take you to the lab.”

Branden knew he had delayed Catherine’s work and was currently making amends.

Seeing that he had arranged everything, Catherine responded with a hum, continuing to soak in the hot water to ease the soreness in her body.

Half an hour later, when Branden saw Catherine still hadn’t come out of the bathroom, he entered and lifted her out of the bathtub. After drying her body and changing her into clean clothes, he carried her to the dining table.

Holding a fork, Catherine tasted the dishes Branden had cooked while she chatted with him. “Rodge should be finishing tomorrow morning, and we’ll return to Loxton tomorrow afternoon.”
