Chapter 782 I Have Something to Report
Faced with Branden’s dominance, Catherine shrugged and looked indifferent.
She said, “We weren’t doing you a favor by stepping in to help Casier Real Estate, and we had no intention of meddling with the Duncan Corporation. We simply don’t like Shane and want to target him, can’t we?
Catherine said it lightly. If someone else had said such words, everyone would have thought that person was talking big.
But these words were said by Catherine. No one dared to question her. After all, Catherine had the ability. She could do whatever she said she would do.
Branden looked at Catherine with eyes full of dominance and deep fascination. “Of course you can. I was hoping to win by relying on my girlfriend, but I didn’t realize that you had no intention of helping me. You did that just because you don’t like Shane!”
Catherine crossed her hands around her chest and looked at Branden with raised eyebrows. “How about you give me the position of the Duncan Corporation’s president? In this way, you can wait to win by relying on me for the rest of your life.”
Branden rubbed his chin back and forth with his slender fingers. It seemed he was thinking seriously about the suggestion Catherine had made. He then gave his reply. “What you say makes some sense. Why don’t we just set it up that way?”
Everyone listened to Branden and Catherine teasing each other. After learning they wouldn’t argue, everyone ate with peace of mind.
If Catherine and Branden hadn’t fought, everyone would have had a good day.
After finishing the meal, seeing Catherine leaning to the side, Ronin approached her. “Catherine, why didn’t you let me hide my tracks?”
Although Ronin obeyed Catherine, he didn’t understand the reason for Catherine’s actions this time. He thought about it and decided to ask clearly.
Catherine could have made this matter very covert, making it impossible for Shane to find out, and could have even blamed it on Branden, but she did not do that.
She even specifically instructed Ronin to expose his whereabouts without covering up the surveillance footage.
In the face of Ronin’s inquiry, Catherine said nonchalantly, “Shane found out about it, so what? Wouldn’t he target me if he didn’t find out about it?”
Shane’s real purpose was Catherine, and the reason he put his hands on the Duncan Corporation in the first place was also because of Catherine.
Even if Catherine hadn’t been involved this time, Shane wouldn’t have given up targeting Catherine.
Since that was the case, it didn’t make much difference whether she made Shane find out about it or not.
Ronin looked at Catherine with some concern.
He was afraid of being heard, so he lowered his voice. “Catherine, I’m worried that if Shane is really annoyed, he will release information that is unfavorable to you.”
Shane still had something about them in his hands, which made Ronin very worried.
Upon hearing Ronin’s words, Catherine’s eyes instantly darkened. She whispered in a deep voice, “Don’t worry. Shane would rather kill me than expose that information.”
Although that was the case, Ronin was still a bit worried. “Catherine, are we going to take any next steps?”
Seeing Ronin so worried about her, Catherine reached out and gently patted Ronin’s head. “Trust me!”
Ronin nodded without hesitation, his eyes filled with determination. “I absolutely trust you!”
The assistant had followed Shane for many years and knew Shane very well.
He understood that Shane had always wanted Catherine to inherit his position. If Catherine were willing to inherit, he wouldn’t have a problem with it.
But now Catherine had changed. She had started to help outsiders deal with the Breens.
The assistant thought to himself, ‘We can’t keep such a person.’ He hesitated for a long time before finally making a decision and dialed the phone number he had not contacted for a long time.
“Sir, I have something to report!”
