Chapter 261
“What do you want to eat?” The man leaned against the window and sat looking at Catherine. He had a cold face, and his dark black eyes were filled with doting.
Catherine had been eating barbecue almost daily lately and already felt slightly tired of it. She suddenly missed some simple home -cooked meals. “I want to eat those dishes you made the other day!”
“Okay!” The man responded softly, then ordered Paxton, “Go to the apartment!”
“Okay!” Paxton immediately responded, changed direction at the fork in the road, and rerouted to the apartment. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
Paxton couldn’t see Catherine and Branden’s expressions through the fender, but Branden’s doting tone just now made him a bit panic. His hands were still shaking as he gripped the steering wheel.
So, Branden had now become a cooking tool?
Alas, the world might be about to change. Bryan followed them in his car and felt strange to see them suddenly change lanes.
“Are they going to change direction?”
Triston, who was driven to this car, saw through Branden’s thoughts at a glance. After all, they had been brothers for so many years, and he knew Branden more or less. He said slowly, “Alas, there’s no need to ask. They’re going home to romance and don’t want to take us with them!”
Ronin glanced at the street sign. The direction Branden’s car went was the direction back to the apartment. He said with some reluctance, “Maybe Boss is tired and needs to rest. She didn’t sleep much in class today!”
Rarely, Bryan didn’t refute him but echoed, “It makes sense!”
Triston suggested generously, “Since they don’t want to have dinner with us, let’s go by ourselves. Let’s have barbecues together and go on a spree. My treat!”
He finished speaking those words happily but only to find that no one was paying any attention to him. Yesenia put on a long face when she heard she could not have dinner with Catherine.
“Bryan, pull over to the side of the road!
Bryan complied and pulled over to a parking spot on the roadside. Yesenia couldn’t wait to get out of the car just as the car came to a stop.
“I’m going back by myself.”
After that, Ronin also got out of the car. Without Catherine, he wasn’t interested in having dinner with these people. Seeing that they were getting off, Triston was a bit anxious. “Hey, why are you all gone?”
As a result, no one cared about him, so he could only turn his face to Bryan. Unexpectedly, Bryan glanced at him and said coldly, “Your home and mine are not on the same road.”
This was clearly a rejection of him!
In the end, Triston was driven out of the car. Standing alone on the roadside, he cursed at Bryan’s car, “Why are all the Duncans so bad?”
Catherine followed Branden back to the apartment. Because Audrey was not there, she went straight into Branden’s apartment.
Branden pushed a snack cart over and placed it in front of her. “I’m going to make dinner. If you’re hungry, eat some nuts first.”
Watching a cart full of snacks with a wide variety and seemingly expensive prices, Catherine was somewhat surprised.
“I thought you didn’t eat snacks?” As far as she could remember, Branden never seemed to eat snacks.
He only ate candy to coax her, and she put the candy in his mouth forcibly. At that time, his expression was a bit unforgettable to her. The man had a warm smile, and the aura emanating from his body was indescribably gentle.
“Because I have you!”
Catherine froze momentarily, and a faint smile grew on her exquisitely cold face. She turned her head to look at Branden. With her beautiful eyes shining brightly, she sized him up with interest and said flirtatiously, “I don’t like snacks either. What should we do?”
Knowing that she was saying that on purpose, Branden cooperated and said, “Please take a bite for my sake!”
Catherine reached out to pinch a nut and put it in her mouth. After that, she rested her cheeks on one hand and looked at Branden with interest. The ends of her eyes were slightly upturned on her pretty face.
“Okay, I’ll take a bite for the sake of Mr. Duncan!”
Her tone was evil, wild, and provocative. Branden reached out and stroked her head. “Good girl!”
Catherine glanced at the laptop placed aside and asked, “Can I use it?”
“Feel free to use it. I’ll cook dinner. Food will be ready soon!” After saying that, Branden turned around and walked into the kitchen. On the other hand, Catherine used Branden’s laptop to deal with the work of the base.
She had upgraded the chip to another version during this time, and it was still in the testing phase, so she had to catch up on her work.
Time passed quickly, and Branden soon came out from inside the kitchen with the dishes. Catherine was still in front of the laptop with a deep look on her face.
Her serious look instantly made Branden a bit dumbfounded. A saying suddenly flashed through his mind, “People who work hard are the most beautiful!”
At that moment, Catherine was so beautiful, and it made him forget to breathe. His hot gaze made Catherine stop her work and look up. Seeing her raise her head, Branden raised the food in his hand to signal that it was time for dinner.
“Food is ready!”
“Okay!” Catherine responded and happily turned off the laptop, following the aroma of the food to the table.
It was a simple three dishes and one soup. There was veggie chili, which looked spicy, but Catherine loved it. When she went to the spicy food restaurant with Branden, she ordered and ate a lot of it. Maybe that was why this dish appeared on the table tonight!
After dinner, Catherine took the empty plates and was ready to put them in the sink, but Branden held her down.
“Leave it to me. You can continue to use the laptop. The guest room remains the same, so you can rest first if you’re tired!”
“Okay!”
Catherine answered and went into the guest room with the laptop in hand. Audrey was in the hospital, and it seemed she would still stay here tonight.
After arriving at the guest room, Catherine sent Ronin the chip information that had just been tested. Just as Ronin received it, the phone she put aside rang. Catherine picked it up casually and placed it beside her ear. Ronin’s excited voice came from the receiver.
“Boss, I thought you were rushing home to rest, but I didn’t expect you were rushing to work. The data from the first phase of chip testing is available now. It’s so quick. Boss, you’re simply God!”
“Cut the crap, put the stuff away, and arrange to go for testing!”
Catherine’s tone and attitude were cold, but Ronin had long gotten used to it and didn’t mind.
“Boss, don’t worry. Leave all this to me. But Boss, do you have an intended target yet? If the news of our successful new generation chip test is released, the outside world will definitely fight.”
Their chips were at the top level and in a leading position worldwide. The world’s top industry giants all had come to them with money to beg for chips.
If the news that the new generation of chips was about to be successfully developed was released, there might be another bloody storm.
Ronin even suspected that the reason why their base’s website was constantly being attacked before had something to do with this as well. Catherine swept a glance at the laptop placed in front of her.
She said slowly with a soft voice, ” Release the news to the Duncan Corporation!”
“The Duncan Corporation?” Ronin subconsciously raised his volume, and the shock between his words was hard to hide. “Boss, You’re giving them exclusive information!
