Chapter 942 Find Something Amusing?

When Branden arrived, Rylan had just left. Hearing footsteps behind her, Catherine turned to see Branden walking towards her. “Why are you here?” she asked.

His cold eyes softened. “I wanted to take you to dinner. I Heard you and Mr. Theo were here, so I came to take you back,” he explained.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Catherine, unfazed by his knowledge of their whereabouts, asked if he had eaten. After confirming, they left with Thomas.

During the car ride, Thomas noticed Catherine’s lack of intention to rest and chatted with her. “Are you taking the day off tomorrow?” he asked.

Catherine jokingly replied, “Are you planning to make me play chess with you?”

“If you’re willing, that would be great. You’re always cooped up in the lab, so it would do you good to come here and get some fresh air,” Thomas said.

Catherine, unable to refuse, agreed to- consider it. “Alright, we’ll see how it goes tomorrow,” she said, glancing at Branden, who appeared quite content.

“Find something amusing?” she asked, her eyes narrowing.

Branden quickly raised his hands in surrender. “I wasn’t laughing at you. I was just happy,” he clarified.

Catherine gave him a look. “So, what’s got you so happy?”

“I’m happy that you followed Mr. Theo’s advice. I’ve advised you countless times to rest more and not spend all your time in the lab, but you never listened,” he said. “Mr. Theo just casually mentioned it, and you agreed to consider it. Though I feel a little envious, I’m quite happy.” After saying this, he looked at her with a smug expression.

Catherine smiled, surprised that Branden could be so delighted over such a small matter.

“Mr. Theo, if you’re not busy, stay in Loxton a little longer. We need you here!” Branden said. Thomas saw through his intentions and readily agreed to stay longer. ” Well, I’ll stay longer, if you don’t mind.

“That’s great!” Branden quickly responded, fearing Thomas might change his mind. Having a skilled doctor like Thomas to care for Catherine was invaluable, and he was determined to make Thomas stay longer to look after her.

Upon returning to the apartment, Catherine headed straight to the bathroom. Exhausted, she just wanted to freshen up and rest. After a quick tidy, she emerged from the bathroom.. Unintentionally, her exceptional hearing allowed her to hear the conversation in the study from the hallway.

“Don’t call me again. I can only get you so far.” Branden’s usually decisive and cold tone now carried a hint of helplessness. He was known for his confidence in the business world, so who could make him speak in such a manner?
