Branden just got home and intended to have a video call meeting and deal with the business in Bothor.Due to the time difference of 12 hours, it happened to be in the morning in that place.
As soon as the video call meeting started, the phone placed aside began to buzz. He picked it up andtook a look only to find that it was Triston’s message in the group chat. The group chat was created byTriston. The members were their good friends.
Branden usually blocked the messages of the group chat. He wouldn’t receive notifications unless hewas mentioned. Today, Triston deliberately mentioned all the members in the group chat and also senta photo out.
Branden glanced at the group chat and suddenly settled his gaze on an unnoticeable place. Instantly, itjust seized his attention.
The senior managers in Bothor were all waiting for Branden to speak when they suddenly saw that hewas staring at his phone.
No one knew what was on the screen that could attract Branden’s attention. The photo was followed byan address. The single guys in the group chat all went into an uproar.
[Mr. Lambert, good for you. You have many girls. You should’ve told me earlier. I’ll be right there!]
[The girl wearing a black T-shirt in the corner looks hot. I’ll come too. Wait for me!]
The girl wearing a black T-shirt in the corner?
That was Catherine!
The moment Branden saw that scene, he put on a cold look. He pressed the picture and saved it on hisphone. Then, he put the phone away and said, “The meeting is over!”
The senior managers of the branch in Bothor looked at each other in confusion. None of them knewwhat had happened to make Branden stop the meeting all of a sudden.
Even Paxton was a bit astonished that Branden intended to leave suddenly.
“Mr. Duncan, I’ll arrange a car for you right now.”
Branden sent him an address and said coldly, “No need. You’ll drive.”
“Yes!”
Paxton thought that Branden had something urgent to do. Seeing Branden’s gloomy face, Paxtonthought something serious was going to happen. So, the journey of more than half an hour’s ride wasreduced by half. At the Lamberts’.
Everyone was having fun. The friends Triston invited there today were all sensible and able to read theroom.
Even though Triston brought two young, pretty girls here after being away for a while, the other girls atthe party didn’t say anything about it.
The people who could be brought there by Triston must come from a good family. Some rich youngmen did want to hit on Catherine upon seeing her. However, they were all stopped by Triston.
“Dude, be careful. She’s not the girl you can get.”
Jimmy felt quite perplexed about Triston’s words. He stared at Triston in confusion. “Mr. Lambert, is sheyour target? If yes, just tell me. We all get it!”
Triston was away for 10 minutes just now. Then, he just came back with two beautiful girls. And Tristonwas extremely nice to them, which made the others rather puzzled.
Jimmy thought Triston was chasing the girl!
Triston sneered and patted Jimmy’s shoulder.
“Bro, don’t joke about that! I still wanna live!”
Judging from Triston’s reaction, Jimmy and the others grew even more curious about Catherine’sidentity, but they also didn’t dare to hit on her.
After all, Triston looked quite serious. They were chatting when the doorbell rang. Someone shouted,“It must be the food delivery I ordered. I’ll get the door.”
After opening the door, that man was struck dumb. As he made no sound for a while, a friend of his inthe apartment said banteringly, “Mate, are you infatuated with the delivery guy? Why don’t you come inyet?”
That man turned his head to look at everyone in a panic. Seeing his expression, others raised theirheads curiously.
Then, two people walked inside. The leading man looked extremely handsome, exuding an aristocraticair. Apparently, his identity must be extraordinary. Triston also noticed that. His eyes glistened when hesaw it was Branden.
“Whoa, there you are, Branden!”
Others all felt excited upon hearing Triston’s words. None of them expected to meet Branden here.They all knew that Triston and Branden were close but never thought that Branden would come toTriston’s party.novelbin

Audrey barely drank at times. This time she had had two bottles of beer For the moment, she becamea bit hammered. Noticing that everyone was looking at the door, she also turned her head andglimpsed Branden standing at the door. She staggered forward and took a closer look. Then, she gavea smile.
“Whoa, isn’t this Branden?”
Branden lowered his head to look at Audrey in front of him. Seeing her red face, he recognized that shewas probably drunk. He wondered if Catherine had drunk any wine, so he meant to go inside and takea look.
Unexpectedly, Audrey suddenly grabbed Branden’s arm and turned to yell inside, “Kathy, here comesyour fiancé! Come and meet him now!”
Everyone was astounded to hear that, their mouths wide open. None of them expected that Brandenwould have a fiancée and that she would be here. Branden froze briefly and then showed a faint smileon his face.
His fiancee’s sister was a bit interesting. Originally, Catherine paid no attention to that. HearingAudrey’s words, she immediately knitted her brows and rose to look at Audrey.
Only a glance immediately made Audrey sober up. She trembled for a moment and then gazed atCatherine with puppy-dog eyes, saying in a low voice, “Did I say anything wrong?”

It would be no different from courting death. Catherine put Audrey on the sofa.” You’re drunk. Let’s godownstairs!”
Audrey’s eyes were fixed on Catherine, and then, she shook her head. “No, Kathy, we’re finally havinga good time. Let’s stay for another while. After all, our home is downstairs. We can just go downstairsand sleep if we get drunk. Am I right?”
Triston also came forward and agreed, saying, “Audrey is right. Kathy, Mr. Duncan has just arrived. Ifyou leave now, it’ll make him look bad. Just cut him some slack!”
Catherine looked up at Triston with a cold expression.
“Why would I cut him some slack?” Triston choked and didn’t know how to respond. The others werealso astonished by Catherine’s arrogant words.
She might be the only one who dared to say that she wouldn’t cut Branden any slack in public!Everyone sized Branden up in secret and wanted to see how he would deal with this daring girl.
