Chapter 15 Watch the Juicy Stuff!

Catherine was much taller than that woman, so she looked down at the woman stonily.

"Since you love to make people kneel, how about you apologize to me in the way you like?"

Catherine spilled out the words calmly, but everyone else could not believe their ears.

The crowd thought, "This country girl of the Swanns is too arrogant! Even Korbin, her father, cannot ask another person to kneel!"

As they saw it, Mr. David stuck up for Catherine because she was also his guest.

Now that Catherine had put forward such an outrageous request, the other people were all waiting to see Catherine making herself a joke. They thought Catherine did not know how to mind her place.

The look on Mr. David's face turned even darker, as the crowd had expected.

He walked to Catherine with a grim face, and the others were looking forward to a good show.

Little did they know that when Mr. David stood by Catherine's side, he did not rebuke Catherine. Instead, he bellowed at the woman before Catherine, "Did you not hear her? Apologize to her in your favorite way, and don't waste our time anymore!"

Mr. David cast a warning look at the woman's husband, and the dangerous aura on him frightened that man.

Thinking of the result of displeasing Mr. David, the man did not dare to delay one more second. He pressed his wife down on the ground, making her kneel before Catherine.

Catherine looked down at the woman while her expression remained unchanged, which was still cold.

"That's boring," said Catherine.

Mr. David echoed her words immediately. The way he acted was like he was sucking up to Catherine.

"You're right, Miss Swann. These people are rude and boring. This way, please."

Mr. David bowed and made a gesture of invitation, suggesting Catherine follow him.

Catherine was the first to take a step forward. The rest of the crowd wanted to follow up, but Mr. David stopped them.

He asked his assistant out and instructed him, "Entertain my guests for me. I have some important things to talk to Miss Swann."

With that, Mr. David stormed after Catherine, worrying he might snub her.

The rest of the guests were confused, especially the Swanns.

Liana watched as Catherine and Mr. David walked away and stamped her foot in fury. She could not help but complain to her father, "Dad, what the hell is going on? Why does Catherine have a chance to be in the spotlight again?"

Liana put on her best dress today and planned to impress Mr. David. She hoped to help her father win Mr. David over so the world would know what she could do and wash away the humiliation she'd suffered at the funeral.

Yet, the one in the limelight was still Catherine.

Liana clenched her fists tight out of rage. No one had ever insulted her like this, and she determined to make Catherine pay the price.

Even Korbin did not understand what was going on, let alone Liana.

It seemed that Catherine had long known Mr. David. He would have taken Catherine to greet Mr. David if he had known it earlier. Now, it was a massive loss.

No one noticed that a person was watching the drama not far away with his phone in his hand.

Triston came to the party only to be part of the spectacle, and the drama was beyond his expectations. He recorded the whole incident and sent it to Branden.

[Mr. Duncan, watch the juicy stuff!]

Branden was having an international video meeting in an office on the top floor of the Duncan Corporation. He heard his phone vibrate and picked it up to check on it.

He was not interested in the text Triston sent him. What triggered him was the pretty face on the screen, and he tapped on the video.

Branden had been playing the video in mute, but he turned the sound on when Catherine started speaking.

The abrupt female voice surprised the leaders in the camera. They looked at each other in awe because it never happened before that their president's office had a woman in it.

It was well known that Branden was not used to being around women. There was no female mosquito in the office area on the top floor of the Duncan Corporation, let alone women.

The sudden voice naturally aroused the interest of the other people.

After watching the video, Branden put his phone aside and ignored the peeking eyes on the screen.

The girl who had just returned to the Swanns was more interesting than he had thought. Branden's lips moved up unnoticeably, and he raised his index finger and waved a little.

Paxton noticed and bent down, saying with great respect, "Mr. Duncan, what can I do for you?"
