Big Novel

Branden just got home and intended to have a video call meeting and deal with the business in Bothor. Due to the time
difference of 12 hours, it happened to be in the morning in that place.
As soon as the video call meeting started, the phone placed aside began to buzz. He picked it up and took a look only to find that
it was Triston’s message in the group chat. The group chat was created by Triston. The members were their good friends.
Branden usually blocked the messages of the group chat. He wouldn’t receive notifications unless he was mentioned. Today,
Triston deliberately mentioned all the members in the group chat and also sent a photo out.
Branden glanced at the group chat and suddenly settled his gaze on an unnoticeable place. Instantly, it just seized his attention.
The senior managers in Bothor were all waiting for Branden to speak when they suddenly saw that he was staring at his phone.
No one knew what was on the screen that could attract Branden’s attention. The photo was followed by an address. The single
guys in the group chat all went into an uproar.
[Mr. Lambert, good for you. You have many girls. You should’ve told me earlier. I’ll be right there!]
[The girl wearing a black T-shirt in the corner looks hot. I’ll come too. Wait for me!]
The girl wearing a black T-shirt in the corner?
That was Catherine!
The moment Branden saw that scene, he put on a cold look. He pressed the picture and saved it on his phone. Then, he put the
phone away and said, “The meeting is over!”
The senior managers of the branch in Bothor looked at each other in confusion. None of them knew what had happened to make
Branden stop the meeting all of a sudden.
Even Paxton was a bit astonished that Branden intended to leave suddenly.
“Mr. Duncan, I’ll arrange a car for you right now.”
Branden sent him an address and said coldly, “No need. You’ll drive.”
“Yes!”

Paxton thought that Branden had something urgent to do. Seeing Branden’s gloomy face, Paxton thought something serious
was going to happen. So, the journey of more than half an hour’s ride was reduced by half. At the Lamberts’.
Everyone was having fun. The friends Triston invited there today were all sensible and able to read the room.
Even though Triston brought two young, pretty girls here after being away for a while, the other girls at the party didn’t say
anything about it.
The people who could be brought there by Triston must come from a good family. Some rich young men did want to hit on
Catherine upon seeing her. However, they were all stopped by Triston.
“Dude, be careful. She’s not the girl you can get.”
Jimmy felt quite perplexed about Triston’s words. He stared at Triston in confusion. “Mr. Lambert, is she your target? If yes, just
tell me. We all get it!”
Triston was away for 10 minutes just now. Then, he just came back with two beautiful girls. And Triston was extremely nice to
them, which made the others rather puzzled.
Jimmy thought Triston was chasing the girl!
Triston sneered and patted Jimmy’s shoulder.
“Bro, don’t joke about that! I still wanna live!”
Judging from Triston’s reaction, Jimmy and the others grew even more curious about Catherine’s identity, but they also didn’t
dare to hit on her.
After all, Triston looked quite serious. They were chatting when the doorbell rang. Someone shouted, “It must be the food
delivery I ordered. I’ll get the door.”
After opening the door, that man was struck dumb. As he made no sound for a while, a friend of his in the apartment said
banteringly, “Mate, are you infatuated with the delivery guy? Why don’t you come in yet?”
That man turned his head to look at everyone in a panic. Seeing his expression, others raised their heads curiously.
Then, two people walked inside. The leading man looked extremely handsome, exuding an aristocratic air. Apparently, his
identity must be extraordinary. Triston also noticed that. His eyes glistened when he saw it was Branden.

“Whoa, there you are, Branden!”
Others all felt excited upon hearing Triston’s words. None of them expected to meet Branden here. They all knew that Triston
and Branden were close but never thought that Branden would come to Triston’s party.
Audrey was having a good time. Since she got here, she had already drunk two bottles of beer because she felt happy.
Audrey barely drank at times. This time she had had two bottles of beer For the moment, she became a bit hammered. Noticing
that everyone was looking at the door, she also turned her head and glimpsed Branden standing at the door. She staggered
forward and took a closer look. Then, she gave a smile.
“Whoa, isn’t this Branden?”
Branden lowered his head to look at Audrey in front of him. Seeing her red face, he recognized that she was probably drunk. He
wondered if Catherine had drunk any wine, so he meant to go inside and take a look.
Unexpectedly, Audrey suddenly grabbed Branden’s arm and turned to yell inside, “Kathy, here comes your fiancé! Come and
meet him now!”
Everyone was astounded to hear that, their mouths wide open. None of them expected that Branden would have a fiancée and
that she would be here. Branden froze briefly and then showed a faint smile on his face.
His fiancee’s sister was a bit interesting. Originally, Catherine paid no attention to that. Hearing Audrey’s words, she immediately
knitted her brows and rose to look at Audrey.
Only a glance immediately made Audrey sober up. She trembled for a moment and then gazed at Catherine with puppy-dog
eyes, saying in a low voice, “Did I say anything wrong?”
Facing her aggrieved expression, Catherine couldn’t bother to blame her and then dragged her over. Branden also followed
Catherine closely. All of this just indicated that what Audrey said was right.
Everyone came to their senses and still felt shocked, especially those who had designs on Catherine.
At this moment, Jimmy finally understood why Triston told him not to covet Catherine. Who would dare to covet Branden’s
fiancee?
It would be no different from courting death. Catherine put Audrey on the sofa.” You’re drunk. Let’s go downstairs!”

Audrey’s eyes were fixed on Catherine, and then, she shook her head. “No, Kathy, we’re finally having a good time. Let’s stay for
another while. After all, our home is downstairs. We can just go downstairs and sleep if we get drunk. Am I right?”
Triston also came forward and agreed, saying, “Audrey is right. Kathy, Mr. Duncan has just arrived. If you leave now, it’ll make
him look bad. Just cut him some slack!”
Catherine looked up at Triston with a cold expression.
“Why would I cut him some slack?” Triston choked and didn’t know how to respond. The others were also astonished by
Catherine’s arrogant words.
She might be the only one who dared to say that she wouldn’t cut Branden any slack in public! Everyone sized Branden up in
secret and wanted to see how he would deal with this daring girl.
