Chapter 652 Her Smile

The crisis had almost come to an end, but Triston and Aidan still didn’t understand what was going on, which made Catherine shake her head helplessly.

At first, Catherine didn’t understand either. She knew better than anyone else how strong Branden’s capital was. He didn’t need any financial support. Even though the Duncan Corporation’s capital was restricted, Branden had the powerful Skyline Fund behind him, so there was no need for him to borrow money from others.

That was why when Branden asked for a loan jokingly, she refused at once. She knew he didn’t actually need it.

Catherine raised her eyes slightly, casting a cold glance at Triston and Aidan, her icy tone carrying an unmistakable disdain. “This is a good opportunity for you to teach those parasites a lesson.”

Upon hearing this, Triston was momentarily stunned. He then exchanged a glance with Aidan. Although they had their own thoughts, they both understood what Catherine meant.

Triston secretly congratulated himself for agreeing without hesitation to Branden’s request. Branden wasn’t actually borrowing money from him or Aidan; he was giving them an opportunity. If it weren’t for this incident, they wouldn’t have known how deeply external forces had infiltrated their company. If the Breens had targeted them instead of the Duncan Corporation, their companies would have changed hands in no time. It was precisely because of their help to Branden that Edson, in order to prevent them from accessing the funds, exposed the hidden dangers hiding in their company.

Now, dealing with these parasites would be much easier. Therefore, strictly speaking, it wasn’t them helping Branden, but Branden helping them.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Triston and Aidan soon understood Catherine’s words, making them increasingly admire Branden.

Triston asked the waiter to serve more dishes, saying he wanted to thank Branden properly, but he knew he didn’t do anything to prove their real friendship.

Triston teased Aidan for being stingy, saying that Aidan only ordered a few more dishes after Branden did him such a big favor. Amid the banter, the atmosphere in the private room became quite lively.

Catherine leaned back in her chair, watching everyone’s happy faces. The smile on her face showed that she was in a good mood. As she watched everyone laugh, she didn’t know that Branden’s eyes were only on her. Her smile was like a spring flowing into the depths of his heart, nourishing his soul.

Edson woke up again in his hospital bed. The moment he saw the person standing beside the bed, his eyes widened in surprise. “Uncle Shane!” he exclaimed.

Shane sat by his side, leaning on a cane, his face etched with displeasure. His deep, cold voice revealed his current state of mind was far from good. ”

Edson, I’m so disappointed in you!”

With just a few words, Edson’s face turned pale instantly. He frantically tried to explain, “Uncle Shane, Branden Duncan is just too cunning…”

Shane didn’t want to hear his excuses. To him, the business world was like a battlefield. Being cunning was an essential skill. Edson’s inability and foolishness were the only reason he failed.

Shane was now increasingly admiring the current heir of the Duncans. It seemed that he indeed needed to have a good talk with Branden, who could effortlessly outmaneuver his nephew.

Shane gave Edson one final glance before delivering the ultimate verdict. ” Starting tomorrow, you don’t need to go to the company any more!” Edson’s mistake this time was so significant that he would have to pay the price. Instead of killing him, he only kicked him out of the company, possibly giving him some leeway.
