Chapter 453 Big Shots Are All Ruthless
Initially, the servants thought only Branden and Catherine would return to the villa. Unexpectedly, so many people
came along.
Plus Withal and Erick, who came uninvited, there were quite some people in the villa now. Just as well the villa was
big enough. It wouldn’t be crowded even if more than a hundred people lived in the villa.
Everyone knew that Catherine would leave Oceanvile the next day, so they all wanted to treat her to dinner. As they
insisted on staying and badgering Catherine, Branden looked livid with sullen eyes.
Yet, they were all Catherine’s friends. He had taken great pains to win Catherine’s forgiveness. Of course, he didn’t
dare to mess with Catherine again now. Although he didn’t dare to piss off Catherine, he couldn’t let Catherine eat
out with them.
“How about having a barbecue tonight?
Branden stared at Catherine gently with affection in his eyes, waiting for her reply. Catherine spent three weeks on
Scorpion Island, where she had plenty of healthy meals and never had any barbecue.
If Branden didn’t bring it up, she wouldn’t think of it. Now that Branden mentioned it, she couldn’t get it off her
mind.
“Okay, let’s have a barbecue!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing Catherine’s merry tone, Branden knew that Catherine was very satisfied with his arrangement.
Branden looked somewhat pleased.
Sure enough, he was the one who knew best about Catherine’s taste. Having received Branden’s hint, Paxton
immediately got up to prepare materials for the barbecue.
As for the others, since Catherine didn’t want to go out, they would stay here to eat with her. All they wanted was to
be with her.
Paxton got everything ready quickly. The table was full of Catherine’s favorite materials, which were all the freshest
on the market. They all looked delicious and mouth-watering.
When the fire was lit up, Branden rose and took Catherine to start eating.
As Catherine sat down, the others all rushed forward. Scott was the one who acted fastest. He directly sat on the
left side of Catherine and smiled complacently as if he had won a contest.
The other people all looked at each other and rolled their eyes at Scott inwardly. He was merely a young man. They
wouldn’t take him to heart. Withal took a glance at Branden and met the latter’s gaze. Immediately, Withal lowered
his head.
He slightly bent down to rub his leg.
Just now, it was actually Withal who was closest to Catherine. He was about to sit next to her when a toothpick
suddenly penetrated his leg.
As a result, he was held back and acted a bit slower than Scott.
And who shot the toothpick at him was quite obvious.
He didn’t expect that Branden was so possessive!
Scott was also rather happy because he had seized a good spot. He smiled at Catherine merrily.
“Catherine, do you like barbecue too?”
Catherine nodded casually in response.
Although Catherine acted aloof, Scott didn’t mind at all. Catherine was an awesome woman. Awesome people were
usually aloof, which was understandable. Scott was approachable and easy- going. He got close to Catherine
warmly.
“Catherine, now we have the same hobby. It’s so nice. What do you like to eat? I’ll make it for you. How about
beef?”
Branden’s hand holding beef stiffened. His eyes slightly darkened. Scott didn’t notice that while Thomas saw that
clearly. After all, given his old age, he knew a lot more than Scott.
To protect his grandson, Thomas had to remind him.
“Scott, mind your manners. No talking while eating. Did you forget it?”
Scott was a bit defiant. He felt that his grandpa was old-school and wanted to talk back. Thomas saw him through
and immediately scolded him, “What? Any problems?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Look at Cassie. Did she talk while eating? How rude of you! You may be loathed!”
Now that Thomas mentioned Catherine as the role model, Scott’s face stiffened at once. He found that Catherine
was indeed eating quietly. It meant that Thomas had made a good point. Scott nodded obediently right away.
“Okay, I’ll keep quiet.”
The fire was still on. Everyone had different facial expressions. They were all eating with various thoughts. Only
Catherine was focusing on eating the food fed by Branden.
The next day, Branden dragged Catherine out of bed early and meant to take her back to Casier.
Catherine wasn’t even awake. She was carried onto the private plane by Branden, dressed in pajamas.
There were too many people badgering Catherine in Oceanvile, which he disliked. When Catherine opened her
eyes, she found she was already in the apartment of Casier.
Branden was sitting opposite her with his back to her. His body was covered with faint blue light. It seemed that he
was working in front of the computer.
Catherine supported herself on her elbow and meant to get up.
Such a subtle noise still alarmed Branden.
He immediately turned around and his cold eyes became gentle at once.
“You’re awake?”
His husky voice sounded really attractive. As if being afraid that Catherine wasn’t awake, he talked rather gently in
case of disturbing her.
Catherine nodded with narrowed eyes.
