Instantly, everyone's attention was focused on Catherine and Branden, as the news shouted out by Aidan was genuinely astonishing.Especially Ronin, his eyes were almost popping out of their sockets. His voice trembled as he said, "B-Boss..."The moment Aidan spoke up, Catherine sightly furrowed her brows, but soon her expression turned calm."Calm down."The two cold words instantly calmed Ronin. He carefully observed Catherine and figured that it probably wasn't cohabitation.As for Aidan, he already knew he had caused an enormous mess. He cowered behind Triston, seeking refuge. He was now filled with anxiety, worried that Branden would come storming out of the car in anger to silence him forever.After all, Branden's gaze was extremely intimidating just now.Branden rolled up the window, knowing there was no point in arguing with the single guys outside the car.Paxton understood Branden's intentions and stepped on the gas pedal, leaving the scene and a cloud of dust behind t
Branden and Catherine returned to the residential area and coincidentally ran into Audrey downstairs.Audrey, with a tired expression, was dragging her suitcase. The dark circles around her eyes were obvious.Hearing a voice behind her, Audrey instinctively turned around and saw Catherine and Branden standing there."Hey, Kathy!" Audrey greeted happily, and Catherine nodded calmly in response.Having grown accustomed to her sister's temperament, Audrey didn't think much of it, but she looked at Catherine with a face full of regret."Kathy, I heard that you performed on stage at a celebration gala. Why didn't you invite me? I could have cheered you on, but unfortunately, I didn't get to see your performance!" Audrey learned about the news from Triston's social media, where he had explicitly posted a photo of himself with Aidan, saying they were there to support Catherine.Audrey was indignant. Why was Triston notified and able to support Catherine but not her, Catherine's own si
The thing Catherine asked Grayson to do wasn't difficult. She asked if Grayson knew anyone suitable to be a celebrity assistant."Is it for Audrey?" Grayson asked.Catherine made a disgruntled sound in response to Grayson.Grayson knew Catherine always protected her loved ones. She would protect them in every way.Audrey was lucky. She wasn't a bad person. The fact that Catherine was willing to live with her meant that Audrey had been accepted as Catherine's sister. Naturally, Catherine was willing to protect her, and it was normal for Catherine to arrange a job for her."Boss, I used to have a good and hardworking assistant. She got fired by the company because she was a girl. How about I introduce her to Audrey?" Grayson suggested."Sure!" Catherine responded to Grayson. She knew Grayson well. Compared to Ronin, Grayson was more mature. He knew exactly what he wanted and had clear goals for the future.The reason Audrey was so exhausted was because she didn't have an assistant
Bryan stopped the car, and Ronin made a gesture, signaling him not to speak. Bryan's hand froze in an instant. He slowly turned back and sat quietly in his seat, not even daring to open the door for fear of disturbing Catherine's rest. Grayson saw that they hadn't gotten out of the car and looked through the window to see Catherine leaning against the seat. His view was obstructed, preventing him from seeing inside the car clearly. Despite this, he could still guess what was happening. He stopped in his tracks, standing in place, not approaching. Bryan squinted at Grayson standing in front, a top-tier celebrity who was usually surrounded by countless fans waiting for him day and night. Now, he willingly stood there, waiting for Catherine to wake up. It was evident how powerful Catherine's charm was, as it unconsciously evoked a sense of awe and respect for her in people's hearts.Catherine hadn't been asleep for long. After the sound of the car engine completely ceased, she slow
Jessica approached Yesenia Duncan and said a few words, causing Yesenia's face to darken immediately. Yesenia was the girl who had called out to Grayson earlier, and she glared in the direction Catherine had left, displeased.Yesenia had heard in a fans' group chat that Grayson was participating in a variety show, so she had done some digging.So this woman was Catherine, the woman who had unintentionally crushed Yesenia's image in Grayson's heart. How could Grayson, whom Yesenia held in such high regard, stoop so low as to accompany an unknown stranger?Yesenia was furious. She watched as Grayson publicly acknowledged Catherine as his most esteemed person, and it became even harder for her to accept the truth. She couldn't understand what Catherine had that she didn't.Rumors had it that Catherine was nothing more than an abandoned girl from the countryside, brought back by the Swanns. How dare she be so arrogant?Unable to contain her anger, Yesenia rushed forward and shouted
Catherine glanced at the four. In fact, there was no need for Grayson to take action. Ronin alone should be enough.If Ronin couldn't defeat the four, then Catherine should seriously consider sending him back for further training.Ronin and Grayson were not actually fighting for their lives but rather competing against each other.Grayson showed no mercy when fighting. Ronin didn't want to be behind and increased his speed.They knocked out the four top-tier bodyguards within five minutes.Ronin arrogantly stomped his foot on a bodyguard, looking at Loraine provocatively."Are you so looking down on us as to actually send someone like this? Can't you find someone stronger so that I can move my muscles a bit?"Yesenia and the others were dumbfounded. They never would have thought that Ronin, who looked like a young boy with delicate features, would be such a good fighter.What surprised her the most was Grayson. She used to watch his movies and thought his martial arts moves wer
Catherine lowered her head to glance at her hand, which had not a single scratch but was slightly reddened.Upon gazing at the gloomy yet handsome face before her, she saw the man who seemed capable of destroying the world at any moment and chuckled silently.Feeling her laughing, Branden raised his head and gave her a displeasing stare as a warning."What do you mean by laughing when I ask why you are doing it yourself?"Catherine casually waved her wrist. Her expression seemed lazy and relaxed. "I have nothing else to do, so I'm just stretching my muscles a bit.""Stretching muscles?" said Aidan inwardly.Upon hearing these words, Aidan, who stood on one side, was shocked.Although his strength was average, he had received a lot of training since childhood and gained some insights into fighting.The duel between Catherine and the two experts just now was not just an exercise but a life-and-death fight, where Catherine ruthlessly dominated the two.He had never seen a girl wh
Yesenia was quite spoiled and could be very fierce when she threw a fit.Her anger took over, making her lose all reason as she shouted directly at Bryan."What, you got a problem with me not liking her?"Who does she think she is? Why are so many people flocking around her?"Yesenia vented her frustrations by speaking out all the hatred in her heart.She couldn't be stopped when she threw a tantrum like a princess.Relying on the Duncans' favor toward her, she had gotten used to acting arrogantly and not considering the consequences.When he looked at Yesenia's arrogant and domineering behavior, Bryan finally understood why Ronin wanted to slap her.If Yesenia were not his cousin, he would also want to slap her.He turned apologetically toward Catherine while anxiously worrying for Yesenia."Silly girl! She doesn't even know what's going on and is just talking nonsense," said he inwardly.However, Catherine remained calm and showed no signs of anger on her face.She kept g
