Catherine received a call from Ronin just after showering in the bathroom.She wouldn't have bothered to answer Ronin's call if it weren't for the phone ringing incessantly on the bed.Pressing the hands-free button, Catherine casually tossed her phone aside and lazily leaned back on the bed, waiting for Ronin to speak."Boss, listen up! I have to tell you something super exciting, and it's about someone. Can you guess who this person is?"Catherine squinted, adjusted slightly, and casually blurted out a name.Ronin was stunned on the other end of the phone. His suddenly elevated voice through the speaker was transmitted directly into Catherine's ears."Oh my God, Boss, how did you guess so accurately?"The next second, he realized and asked cautiously, "Did Branden tell you?"Catherine rolled her eyes. "Why do I always have to deal with these things all day?" she thought.Unable to restrain herself, she made a few sarcastic comments."Do you think you can hide downstairs lik
Arriving at Class 8, Catherine walked to her seat and sat down as usual.Under the supervision of Branden, her blood sugar control had been good, and she was not as tired as before during this period.It was no longer like before, where she would immediately lie down and fall asleep upon entering the classroom.Ronin sat to the side, observing his boss from across the aisle.Since Catherine entered the classroom, she never even glanced at Ronin. It was apparent that Ronin had prepared breakfast in vain today.After feeling down for three seconds, Ronin quickly regained his lively demeanor and scampered over to Catherine joyfully."Boss, wanna drink some hot coffee?"Catherine had another hobby. She liked to drink hot coffee.Apart from rose liqueur, Ronin always had a variety of fragrant coffee beans with him. He boiled the coffee until it was slightly hot and served it to Catherine.Catherine did not refuse and extended her hand toward Ronin.Immediately, Ronin handed the cu
During the school celebration gala auditions last time, the results of Catherine's group were not announced due to their questioning of the Student Union.Later on, the president of the Student Union voluntarily resigned due to corruption and misconduct within the Student Union.The authority to judge was given to the music department's teachers. After watching the recording of that day, they granted Catherine's group the qualification to advance directly.Half of the candidates made it through the auditions, and the other half would compete in the next round.After the first round of the competition was over, there was still the second round to go. The finals would be the performance at the school anniversary celebration.The entire school would vote on the finals, including teachers, students, and notable alumni. The best performance would be chosen to be the overall champion.The school held this celebration gala with great grandeur. Many people were scrambling to be crowned t
Catherine raised her eyebrows and waited for Ronin's next words.Ronin originally had a spirited look, but he instantly drooped after meeting Catherine's gaze.He knew that Catherine was waiting for his next words, but he was terrified in his heart and dared not continue. He asked trembly, "Boss, are you going to dinner?""Uh-huh," Catherine replied.Ronin couldn't tell what her mood was at the moment. He continued cautiously, "How about you take me with you? I have nowhere to have dinner yet!"His pathetic look would make those who didn't know the situation think Catherine was abusing her men.As Ronin spoke, he pulled Bryan's sleeve, signaling him to say something as well.It was not that Catherine didn't notice the interaction between the two. It was just that they were so funny that she didn't even know what to say.Bryan had just tricked Ronin once. He feared Ronin would get angry if he didn't help him now.Therefore, he still forced himself to speak despite Bryan's fear
Triston entered the door with his head and shoulders hanging down. He was covered in water stains, causing Aidan to be surprised for a moment."What the fuck. Mr. Lambert, did you stick your head into a ditch?"Triston glanced at Aidan coldly and said impatiently, "Fuck off. You're the one whose head was stuck in the toilet. Don't bother me. Can't you see a pimple had popped up on my face?"Aidan didn't want to lose to Triston and retorted casually, "You've got pimples, and you still want to have barbecued food? You should eat something light.""I like it. Who do you think you are to meddle in my business!"With one hand supporting her chin, Catherine propped her head on the table as she watched their verbal battle. It was as if she were watching an extremely entertaining comedy show.Aidan and Triston were used to having verbal battles since they were young, and after a while, they sat down to have dinner.Triston liked lively environments and was not used to eating without ban
Aidan rubbed his hands together in glee. His eyes were full of anticipation, but he asked for Catherine's opinion as a symbolic gesture. "Catherine, is doing a 'dare' okay?"Did he dare to mess with Branden's woman?Of course, he doesn't dare to do so. He could only play the game with caution.Both Ronin and Bryan disagreed. The two tried to stop the game but were stopped by Catherine.Since she dared to sit there, she naturally would dare to play the game.And she could see that everyone in the room was expecting it.She said graciously, "Go ahead!"Her attitude was the same as when Branden responded earlier, perhaps even more arrogantly. Aidan was so happy that he almost jumped up and applauded. "Okay, Catherine. Great!"Although Catherine was Branden's woman, since she was willing to play the game, Branden couldn't blame him.Aidan narrowed his eyes and showed an evil smile. He fixed his eyes on Catherine."Catherine, my request is simple. Kiss the person sitting to yo
Branden looked sideways and saw Catherine holding her face with one hand. She was leaning against the window with her eyes closed in a nap.He reached out to wrap his broad palm around Catherine's shoulders, exerting a slight force to make her lean into his arms.Catherine frowned slightly, thinking that Branden's movements of embracing her were becoming more natural and proficient.Just as she was about to struggle, she heard the man's warm and magnetic low voice from above her head. "Don't move. Taking a nap this way would be more comfortable."As Branden spoke, he pressed his cold fingertips repeatedly against Catherine's head, soothing her entire head. It was a pleasant feeling.Catherine, who had wanted to struggle free initially, closed her eyes in comfort as though a well-fed cat. The man's eyes lowered. He saw Catherine leaning against his abdomen with her eyes closed and her face full of cute looks.She now was completely different from her usual indifferent and aloo
The next day, Audrey was still in bed when Catherine was ready for school.Audrey struggled to get up and walk out of the room after she heard vague noises.Seeing Catherine with her bag, Audrey's eyes instantly widened as she glanced at the clock on the wall."Geez, it's so late. Kathy, sorry. I'm up late again."She looked at Catherine with a frustrated look and said, "I was going to make you breakfast, but I got up late again."Catherine knew Audrey got back from her event in the early morning, and it was almost impossible for Audrey to wake up at 7 o'clock to cook breakfast for her."I'll just eat in the restaurant!"Audrey reminded Catherine with a guilty expression, "Please do. Breakfast is the foundation of the day!"After all, Catherine could only eat out because Audrey couldn't get up early."Okay!"Catherine continued, "You can go back to sleep. I'm leaving!"Looking at the door open and close, a sweet smile appeared on Audrey's face. The two dimples on the corner
