Chapter 252
After settling the bill, the waiter returned with a few VIP cards and distributed them to everyone present.
“Dear customers, check out our VIP card! You can have your own private room and avoid those longlines. These exclusive rooms are reserved just for our VIP guests. So, I hope you enjoyed your meal!”
The waiter was highly respectful, and the service was thoughtful, giving people a feeling of being in awarm spring breeze.
The people present were so excited that even David couldn’t help but cheer out loud. “Oh my goodness,this service is truly impeccable! Following our boss has its perks. The treatment we receive is trulyexceptional.”novelbin
Catherine remained composed and did not appear smug despite David’s flattery. Given their prestigiousbackgrounds, it was improbable that just a membership card could easily sway people like David.
There were two reasons for this. Firstly, the service of this restaurant was indeed quite good. Secondly,they were showing respect toward her.
Catherine was brilliant and knew these people were pretty cool. They didn’t have many ulterior motives,so she was willing to befriend them.
After finishing the meal, everyone prepared to leave. Catherine did not ask the waiter when Brandenwould come to pick her up.
“Anyway, what will come will come. Why bother worrying so much about it? said she inwardly. The groupof people walked out of the barbecue restaurant together. Bryan said affectionately to Catherine, “Boss,let me take you home!”
As Yesenia listened on the side, her gaze was fixed firmly on Bryan with a hint of unusual attention in hereyes. Catherine was not only the top candidate for her future sister-in-law but also the only choice in her
heart.
“If Bryan…
“This is going to be a great inconvenience!” said she inwardly. Catherine did not respond, for she saw theblack Bentley slowly approaching them as she looked up. Noticing her gaze, Bryan followed it and alsosaw the black Bentley. He was instantly deflated.
Paxton got out of the car and respectfully opened the door. A man dressed in a long black windcoatslowly stepped out of the vehicle. His tall, straight posture appeared even more dazzling in the darknight, exuding a sense of nobility. Branden strode confidently toward Catherine, his long legs movingsteadily, step by step.
Finally, he came to a halt less than 20 inches from Catherine. His handsome face shone with amesmerizing aura while his deep and radiant black eyes glimmered with the moon’s light. He gazed atCatherine with tenderness in his eyes.
“Do you like it?” he asked. Those eavesdropping with pricked-up ears were all stunned, notunderstanding the meaning behind the big shot’s words.
Only Catherine understood it without any need for guessing. She raised an eyebrow, gazing at Brandenwith contentment, and provided the most pertinent evaluation.
“The taste and the environment are both nice!”
“Your satisfaction is all that matters!” answered Branden. From the way the man spoke and theexpression on his face, it was evident that Catherine’s response did indeed satisfy him.
However, Catherine was more curious about something else. Her gaze swept back and forth onBranden’s body as if searching for something.
“Why did you open this restaurant suddenly?”
Branden gently looked at her, pursed his thin lips, and revealed a slight smile. “It’s windy outside. Let’stalk in the car!”
Ever since he found out that Catherine enjoyed having a barbecue, he immediately ordered someone tomake arrangements for it.
He had been involved in everything from site selection to product selection and then to interior design.The only purpose was to ensure that the outcome of each process met her preferences. Whatever thecost, he would give it to her if she liked it.
After Catherine left, Bryan turned around and got ready to go back. Yesenia quickly caught up and sat inthe passenger seat.
Bryan side glanced at her with a disapproving look. Yesenia leaned back indifferently on the leather seat,observing Bryan with ease.
“I would like to visit Grandpa at the Duncans’ tonight. Don’t you want to give me a ride?” she asked.Bryan was left at a loss for words. Since Yesenia had said that she would go to the Duncans’, it wouldn’tbe right if he didn’t take her with him. Therefore, he agreed to bring her along. With a tone of disdain, hesaid, “Put on your seatbelt!”
Yesenia was looking pretty pleased with herself for her successful scheming. As Bryan started the car,Yesenia suddenly approached and pressed the parking brake. Bryan was slightly angry. He turned andglared at Yesenia disapprovingly.
“Miss, what are you up to again? If you don’t want to take my car, you may get out and arrange forsomeone to pick you up or take a taxi yourself!”
With a serious expression, Yesenia fixed her gaze on Bryan, scrutinizing him from head to toe with eyesas focused as a searchlight. Being stared at by such a gaze, Bryan felt particularly uncomfortable. Helooked at Yesenia displeasingly.
“What are you trying to do?”
With an intense and unwavering gaze, Yesenia said in a serious and cold tone, “You’re so harsh towardme, yet you treat Super Catherine with respect and friendliness. Bryan, this is not right!”
Upon hearing her words, Bryan couldn’t help but laugh coldly in anger. He sneered twice and said,“Humph, Yesenia, you also said she is Super Catherine. Are you worthy enough to be compared to her?”
If it were a comparison with others, Yesenia would have lost her cool long ago. After all, she was the onlydaughter of the Duncans, and many people were accommodating and flattering toward her. How wasshe not worth it?
But if the person in comparison was Catherine, then she could only silently accept defeat. “I am simplynot worthy, so what?” said Yesenia with an air of righteous indignation.
Her bright, threatening, and warning eyes closely stared at Bryan. “I admit that I am not worthy of beingcompared to Catherine, but what about you, Bryan? Do you admit that your gaze toward SuperCatherine is improper and your attitude toward her is unusual?”
After hearing Yesenia’s question, Bryan was stunned momentarily before he silently closed his eyes andfurrowed his brows. A few seconds later, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Yesenia with asevere expression.
That look made Yesenia a bit scared. She instinctively backed away and looked at Bryan with caution.“What are you looking at? Stop staring at me like that. It’s freaking me out!” said she.
“I just want to tell you that I admire Catherine just like you. There’s so much about her that I’ve alwaystried to attain but couldn’t. She’s the object of my envy and admiration, that’s it. As for her and UncleBranden, I believe she’s more than capable! She definitely deserves to be the wife of Branden.”
Upon hearing Bryan’s words, Yesenia let out a sigh of relief silently.
She reached out and patted Bryan’s shoulder. “You scared me. I thought the Duncans was about to fallapart or something!”
Bryan gave her a disdainful look and coldly retorted. “Do you think I have a chance of winning againstUncle Branden?”
“If the opponent is Uncle Branden, I would only be beaten up. “Let alone me. You can hardly findsomeone in the whole town of Casier who can compete with Branden.
“Catherine is my idol, and the only one who may be a match for her is probably Uncle Branden,” said heinwardly. Yesenia totally agreed and nodded her head. “That’s right, looks like you have a clearestimation of yourself after all!”
Bryan couldn’t be bothered with this overly anxious cousin and revved his car to leave in the middle ofthe night..
