Chapter 375 The Unusual Relationship
Someone suddenly rushed over, and naturally, Paxton had to stop it.
He stepped forward to block Emma’s way. Paxton was cold in nature. Usually, when he didn’t speak, hehad a stern face, and the aura that permeated from him was very appalling.
Emma retreated silently after Paxton gave her a look and didn’t dare to go forward. Since she dared notgo forward, she stood still and glared at Catherine with wide eyes.
On the other hand, Catherine, the person involved, stood indifferent and had no intention of payingattention to Emma.
Seeing Catherine’s fearless appearance, Emma didn’t want to give up and shouted bravely, “Sir, youreally don’t want to know?”
Branden glanced toward Paxton, and Paxton took a step back.
A faint smile appeared on Emma’s face. She knew that no man could tolerate his woman betraying him,not to mention the man in front of her was a nobleman. At first glance, Emma could tell he was a toptycoon.
She was a little smug and couldn’t wait to tell Branden, “Sir, Catherine must have deceived you. She’shaving an affair with several boys.
“Do you know Grayson?” To get back on Catherine, Emma even mentioned Grayson.
“He’s a top idol star, and his relationship with Catherine is unusual.
If you don’t believe me, you can ask Catherine!”
After saying that, Emma looked at Catherine smugly. She was waiting for the man beside Catherine toget mad and see the image of Catherine being abandoned by the man.
Branden had thought he could hear some incredible gossip, but it turned out that was all!
He glanced down at Catherine and asked coldly, “Kathy, is what she said true?”novelbin
Emma was already happy inside because her purpose was about to be achieved. Her gaze was fixed onCatherine, and she could guarantee that Catherine would not dare to lie. At best, Catherine would notrespond or change the topic.
No matter what Catherine’s reaction was, Emma had something to say in response, and she was surethat Catherine wouldn’t even have a chance to retort.
Unexpectedly, Catherine didn’t even deny or defend herself. She just nodded her head.
What Emma said was true. Vicente had adopted Grayson since Grayson was a kid, and he andCatherine grew up together. Their relationship was indeed unusual. But who said an unusual relationshiphad to be a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship?
Couldn’t it be friendship, sibling relationship, or something like that?
Seeing Catherine nodding her head, Emma instantly became excited and said to Branden anxiously, “Sir,did you see that? She admitted that she has an unusual relationship with Grayson!”
“Mmm!” After hearing Emma’s accusation, Branden nodded rather approvingly. Without waiting forEmma to get carried away, Branden looked at Catherine and asked, “What about us, Kathy? What aboutour relationship?”
His voice was very gentle.
Catherine knew very well in her heart what the man in front of her was thinking right now. With her eyesturned slyly and a hint of cunning at the corner of her mouth, Catherine’s gaze fell straight to the man.“Normal!
“Our relationship is that of a normal unmarried couple, I guess!”
She had a marriage contract with Branden. Although her grandfather set it, Branden was still her fiancéat the moment. The two of them were indeed an unmarried couple!
Hearing her admit their relationship, a smile appeared on Branden’s handsome face as he reached outand gently rubbed her soft cheeks.
“That’s right!”
It seemed he needed to thank the brainless Emma because she made Catherine willing to admit that hewas her fiancé.
Watching the interaction between the two, Emma was extremely jealous. She didn’t understand whatkind of charm Catherine had that could make men surround her one by one!
Were these men too blind to see how disgusting Catherine was?
Emma looked at Branden in disbelief.
“Sir, don’t you even mind Catherine flirting with another man?”
Branden turned back, his initially gentle face instantly darkened. He looked coldly at Emma, and his eyeswere like two sharp swords that went hard through Emma’s body, frightening her to the point that shetrembled.
“So what?”
The man’s low and grim voice was just two different voices from when he spoke to Catherine. Emmadidn’t expect the man to say that.
As she was in a daze, not knowing how to answer, the man spoke again, and his words this time wereeven more shocking.
“Not to mention she has an unusual relationship with Grayson, even if she used to date Grayson, and aslong as she’s with me now, willing to recognize me as her fiancé, that’s enough!”
Hearing this, Emma’s eyes widened in shock. There was such a man in the world. Emma wasn’t the onlyone who was shocked. Paxton, standing behind them, also widened his eyes in shock when he heardthis.
Was the man who just said those words his boss?
Could it be that Catherine knew magic powers and had used a spell to control Branden?
How did a cold, big man become so doting toward Catherine?
His words just now were unbelievable!
Paxton wanted to tell Branden, “Mr. Duncan, if you’ve been controlled, just blink. I’ll help you!”
Branden didn’t have the time to keep fooling around with Emma. His little girl was tired from shoppingand needed to get back to resting.
He left with his arm around Catherine, and when he passed by Emma, he followed Catherine’s previousattitude of speaking to the clerk, saying coldly and lightly, “Help me say hello to your Grandpa and tellhim that my surname is Duncan!”
His surname was Duncan!
Emma froze in place instantly, feeling a constant coldness rising from her feet, making her body stiff withcold. She did hear her grandfather say that Catherine had a fiancé, and it was the well-known man inCasier.
But she thought it was just a marriage contract set by Vicente, and Branden wasn’t interested inCatherine.
She didn’t expect that he actually came to Oceanvile for Catherine, and not only that, Branden alsodoted for Catherine so much that he could even do this for her!
Emma gradually became desperate. She knew she was finished this time. That night, when Emmareturned home, the Duncans made a phone call to her grandfather. It was Paxton who made the phonecall in person!
Although Paxton usually followed Branden and did everything, he was also a senior manager at theDuncan Corporation. He could be considered Branden’s special assistant.
After receiving the call, no matter how Emma cried and screamed, her grandfather sent her abroadovernight.
Emma’s father came to plead for mercy, but Emma’s grandfather only said, “If you don’t want our familyto go bankrupt, do what I say!”
Emma’s father naturally knew that his father would not joke about this, so he did not dare to say anythingmore but sent his daughter away directly.
