Chapter 87 Let Her Have Her Way

After telling Paxton what to do, Branden walked back to the crowd. He attracted everybody’s attention as they watched him walk straight to Catherine and sit down beside her without hesitation.

This development of the incident made everyone present uncomfortable. All the guys at the party were intimidated by Branden’s presence, and nobody dared to speak.But there certainly were brave people. For example, some of the girls were still drooling over Branden

His handsome face and elevated status were enough to drive them crazy. They would sacrifice everything, even their life, for Branden.

See, here came a woman in a sexy nightgown. She walked to Branden with her hips swaying like a world-famous model, clearly in an attempt to attract him. She raised her pitch and said. pretentiously, “Mr. Duncan, my father has always told me how much he admires you. I am honored to meet you today. May I propose a toast to you?”

Her shrill voice made everyone’s skin crawl. Even Catherine raised her glance and frowned at the woman.

That woman was making eyes at Branden the entire time when Catherine looked up. The latter spoke up in disdain, “What’s wrong with your eyes? Can’t you look at people normally?”

People in the room almost died trying to hold back their laughter.

On the other hand, Branden just sat there with an intrigued look on his face. He was looking at Catherine and observing her reactions.

Having been called out by Catherine, the woman was shaking with anger, but she managed to look at Branden with her puppy eyes and said cautiously, “Mr. Branden, I just wanted to pay

my respects to you.’

Catherine was playing a game on her phone, and the constant chattering of the woman kept distracting her. This no doubt enraged her. She turned to look at Branden gloomily, then addressed him coldly, “You, sit over there. Let her have her way with you.”

“As long as that woman is not flirting in front of me, I don’t want to get involved in this. Just leave me alone,” Catherine thought.

The woman didn’t expect Catherine to point out her intentions so bluntly. She froze at the scene, on the verge of tears.

Upon hearing Catherine’s comment, everyone in the room gasped at her boldness.

They thought, “How dare she say that?

“It’s Branden Duncan she’s talking to.

“That man can destroy Casier without even lifting his little finger. Is Catherine out of her mind, challenging him in public like this?”

Perhaps Bryan was the only person who rooted for Catherine at that moment. He was smitten with how fearless Catherine was while confronting his third uncle.

Bryan even had a plan in mind. If Branden wanted to punish Catherine, Bryan would immediately go to Vicente and ask him for help.

But nobody expected this. Branden wasn’t offended by what Catherine said at all. In fact, there was even a faint smile on his face.

He gestured behind him, and Paxton immediately stepped forward as an answer.

Just as everybody thought Paxton was about to punish Catherine, the servant walked to the woman who approached Branden earlier and said coldly, “Please leave the Duncans’ right now.

The woman’s jaw dropped as she responded in shock. “I believe you are talking to the wrong person,” she said.

Paxton didn’t waste a word of his because, the next second, he was already dragging the

woman out.

Paxton was very strong. The woman didn’t even have the opportunity to put up a fight before she was kicked out of the house.

Everybody held their breath as they were stunned by this turn of events. The noisy room had gone entirely quiet.

Now, a dead silence hovered in the room.

Realizing Catherine was bored, Branden offered spontaneously, “Can I show you around the house?”

The Duncans’ enjoyed a history of over 100 years. Many of the structures were carefully designed and built by skilled artisans.

Famous directors had been coming to the Duncans, hoping to shoot some scenes at the house. But the Duncans turned them all down.

If the house had gone on television, much more people would be visiting here.

Catherine seemed uninterested in taking a house tour. She appeared exhausted after playing a video game for a while, and without much thought, she placed her phone down and glanced at

Branden.

“I’m tired,” she said. Her tone wasn’t as cold as before, and a trace of fatigue appeared on her. face.

Branden’s gaze was fixed on her. Branden appeared quite gentle when looking at the tired. Catherine resting on the couch.

“The guestroom upstairs has been cleaned. Let me walk you there. You can have a rest.”

Catherine nodded. She had done this many times before.

And each time, she had been happy with Branden’s arrangements. He had made the room as comfortable as possible for her according to her liking, so she could accept resting there.

Catherine wiggled her body lazily. She didn’t want to move.

Just as she was to stand up, Branden reached out and held her hand. When their hands. touched, Catherine paused momentarily and shifted her gaze to her hand. However, Branden. didn’t give her any time to think about this. Holding hands, he dragged her upstairs directly.

When the two disappeared at the stairs, everyone finally figured out what had happened.

One couldn’t help but exclaim, “Oh my. What did I just see? Am I hallucinating?”

“No, you are not. We saw that, too.”

“We just saw Branden lead Catherine upstairs to her room,” everybody thought.

This was quite the big news. Some people, unable to hold back their curiosity, went to ask Liana about it.

“Liana, Catherine is your sister. You must know something. Is she dating Mr. Duncan? Why are they so intimate?”

Despite Liana’s growing anger, those around her continued to ask insensitive questions. She couldn’t help but imagine slapping some sense into them to end their thoughtless gossip.

“God knows what kind of spells Catherine cast on Branden. How did she manage to make Branden even pay attention to her?” Liana wondered.

How Catherine managed to enchant Branden was so unbelievable to Liana. Surrounded by all the people in the room looking at her curiously, Liana said with an attitude, “Dating? I don’t think so. Catherine must have been forcing herself on Mr. Duncan. My sister has been bringing bad luck to people around her ever since she was a child. That’s why she was sent to the countryside, so she wouldn’t bother any of us. Now that she’s standing here in one piece, she must have learned some tricks to charm people and help her survive.” Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The person who asked the question earlier bellowed out again in surprise. “Does Catherine really know some kind of supernatural abilities? Could this be why she managed to become top of the class without being properly educated?”

Once people started guessing, they came up with all kinds of explanations.

After all, what Catherine had achieved was nearly impossible for a normal human being. Nobody knew how she did it, and everybody was surprised.

Bryan slowly walked towards Liana while staring at her coldly the entire time. “You two are biological sisters, right?”

“What?” Liana asked in confusion. She didn’t know why Bryan would ask such a question.

Bryan simply ignored her question and retorted, “Slandering your sister like this in public, is that all you are capable of, Liana Swann?”

This comment was like a slap in the face to Liana. The humiliation was unbearable. Bryan looked at Liana in disdain as if looking at a garbage pile. This made Liana almost choke. with anger.

But that wasn’t the end of it for Bryan. He scanned the room with a serious face and said, “Do you all think it is that easy to trick the head of the Duncans? Supernatural abilities? If you all are so imaginative, go take on exorcism as an occupation.”

The gossipers were so embarrassed they couldn’t even look Bryan in the eye. After all, Bryan was right. If Branden could be deceived just like that, he wouldn’t be chosen as the family head at all.
