Chapter 45 Treat You to Dinner

Catherine pointed at the exercise she had just thrown at Bryan, then said to him, “You. Go and teach the class.”

When Bryan opened his exercise just now, she glanced at his answers. They were basically all correct and were all solved clearly and logically. She could tell that he was pretty smart.

Stunned, Bryan couldn’t believe Catherine was asking him to teach the entire class. Was he hallucinating?

Who would believe something so outrageous? However, it was really happening. Seeing that Bryan didn’t move, Catherine looked at him with a brow raised. Her eyes grew colder as she said, “Do you not want to?”

Bryan replied without thinking, “I do!”

Then, Bryan picked up the exercise, got to the front, and faced the class. “The multiple-choice questions in the front are too easy. I will skip those. Let’s start with the long questions…”

Bryan was the best in mathematics in the class. Many students begged him to teach them, but he never agreed.

Now, he was actually teaching the class at Catherine’s order. One could tell that Catherine really had a great influence over Bryan.

Class 8 was originally pretty good at mathematics already. Most of the time, the teacher didn’t bother to teach much in class but simply gave them the answers to the questions.

Bryan’s explanations were even clearer than that of the mathematics teacher.

The students, that were disdainful and grumpy at first, became increasingly fascinated by

Bryan’s teaching.

Even David, who had little interest in mathematics, was enjoying himself. As Bryan stopped between questions, David clapped and cheered. “Bryan, you’re amazing. If I knew before you’re so good at teaching others, why did I bother paying attention in mathematics lessons? I’d simply listen to you. I can understand everything you say. I feel like I can surely pass the upcoming exam!”

Bryan looked up at Catherine subconsciously, only to find she was still fast asleep. It seemed as though nothing could affect her, which made him feel somehow at a loss.

Meanwhile, David was still cheering non-stop. Bryan picked up the chalk on the table and threw it at David, glared at him fiercely, and warned, “Shut up and listen. Stop talking

nonsense!”

David was so scared that he didn’t dare to say another word. He listened to Bryan quietly. Seeing Bryan like this, the others dared not discuss anything anymore.

Seeing how everyone was listening to Bryan attentively, Liana felt that they had already forgotten that Catherine was the one that made the mathematics teacher leave.

Liana was so angry that she clenched her fists so hard that her

pen almost broke.

The jinx was lucky to have someone help her like this. Damn her!

Apart from the mathematics teacher, all the other teachers teaching in the afternoon seemed to have heard about Catherine before. None of them gave the class a hard time because Catherine was sleeping, and the class finished their lessons smoothly.

As the bell rang, indicating the end of the day, Catherine woke up slowly like she did at lunchtime, grabbed her school bag, and left. She moved so smoothly and left briskly.

Even David, who was on the side, approached Bryan in silence and sighed. “Bryan, I feel that the new student is so cool and intimidating.” Bryan turned around to roll his eyes at him. What nonsense was he spouting?

After all, she was someone he wanted to befriend. Of course, she was cool and intimidating.

Then, Bryan grabbed his bag and ran after Catherine. He wanted to catch up with her, give her a ride home, and thus grow closer to her. After leaving the school gate, Catherine was planning to take her motorcycle home.

However, when she saw the Maybach parked by the school gate, Catherine knew she did not. have a chance to ride her motorcycle again today.

Who else but him would drive a car with such a flashy license plate? Catherine’s eyes darkened as she took a turn and walked towards the car.

Paxton, sitting in the driver’s seat, recognized her at once and informed the man in the backseat timely. “Mr. Duncan, Miss Swann is here!”

The man, who was focused on his work in the backseat, raised his head slowly at Paxton’s words. He squinted his eyes slightly.

Instead of the cool black shirt he wore in the morning, the man had changed into an iron blue and more formal shirt. He had already loosened the tie on it and unbuttoned the top two buttons of the shirt, revealing his delicate collarbones, looking casual and flashy.

Paxton had already left the car and opened the door for Branden. From where Catherine stood, she saw a pair of strong slender legs emerge from the car with her eyes lowered.

The fitted pants showed the shape of his legs perfectly. At this moment, Catherine. remembered something she had only heard of before, “to fall for a man,” and finally understood what it meant!

Clearly, some men could be as tempting and dangerous as women.

After leaving the car, Branden fixed his eyes on Catherine immediately. He looked straight at her, deliberately telling Catherine he was there for her.

Standing rooted, Catherine looked indifferent. It was as if nothing could interest or affect her.

Seeing Branden walk towards Catherine proactively, Paxton, who was waiting by the car, realized that it was the first time he saw his boss approaching a woman without being pressed.

After the afternoon international meeting, Branden rushed home in a hurry. Paxton had thought he was on some critical mission but never expected that he only did so in order to pick Catherine up from school.

The whole thing seemed surreal. Catherine watched Branden approach, strolling towards her with his back to the setting sun.

The sunray fell on his back. It was as if he was shining. His well-defined and handsome features seemed even more perfect than usual under the soft light.

Finally, Branden stopped around 20 inches away in front of her. It was close enough for Catherine to see every tiny emotion on his face and not be repulsed by his approach. The man seemed to have thought of everything.

Catherine looked up at him coldly, looking and even sounding casual and lazy. “What do you want?”

“To treat you to dinner!” Branden said simply and bluntly. His bright brown eyes were openly fixed on Catherine’s beautiful face.

Hearing his answer, Catherine frowned slightly. She didn’t want to become too involved with him. She had investigated Branden before and found little about him.

There were only a few people in this world that she could learn so little about. She could see how powerful he was from this!

It wasn’t that Catherine was afraid of the Duncans. She just didn’t want to be involved with Branden.

Even though Vicente had arranged this marriage before he died, Catherine was only willing to follow through with it as long as she controlled everything.

Catherine looked up at him with a trace of arrogance in her lazy temperament.

In the face of an in-person invitation from the well-respected Mr. Duncan in Casier, Catherine replied lightly with a simple two-word answer, “I’m busy!”

Chapter 249: Purpose Over Profit

Moana The months in between Michael going to prison and Daisy’s birth were a whirlwind of emotions and unexpected turns. After the incident with Michael, where he was sentenced to prison for his attempt on my life, my world took another astonishing twist. The news outlets revealed a shocking revelation: Moana, the seemingly ordinary girl who was raised in an orphanage, was, in fact, the legendary Golden Wolf. I never imagined my life could become so entangled in a web of fame and attention. Suddenly, everyone wanted a piece of me. All sorts of brands and non-governmental organizations bombarded me with invitations and tempting monetary offers. It was overwhelming, to say the least. My inbox was flooded with messages from high-profile companies and influential figures, all hoping to capitalize on my newfound fame. It felt like the world had changed overnight, and I struggled to comprehend the weight of it all. As the news continued to report on the outrageous offers I was receiving, doubt crept into the minds of many. People began questioning whether the Golden Wolf, the protector of nature and advocate for equality, would truly stay true to her purpose or succumb to the allure of money. These doubts lingered in my mind as well, threatening to pull me away from the path I had set for myself. In the midst of this chaos, I almost fell victim to a company that was particularly skilled in branding. They had a compelling narrative and seemed genuinely interested in making a positive impact on the world. At first, it was love at first sight. I was thrilled to have the chance to be involved with such a high profile company. However, as I delved deeper into their motives, it became evident that they were driven solely by profit. Their true intentions were masked by a cleverly crafted facade, and it took the guidance of my trusted companion, Edrick, to see through their deception. Edrick, ever the wise and discerning soul, helped me navigate through the sea of offers. Together, we carefully scrutinized each proposition, seeking the genuine ones from those that were merely seeking to exploit my fame. We rejected all those with insincere intentions, determined to stay true to our mission of making the world a more equitable place. It was a lot of work for a while, and a lot of late nights were spent sifting through mountains of proposal letters and applications. However, amidst all of the chaos, we discovered a small organization that aligned perfectly with our values. “Look,” I said late one night as Edrick and I sat up and worked through the sea of paperwork. It was just a couple of months before Daisy was set to be born, and my belly was practically bursting as I leaned forward to hand Edrick the piece of paper that caught my attention. “Look at this organization I just found.” Edrick furrowed his brow as he took the letter from me. “Humanity’s Reach Initiative,” he said under his breath. Edrick furrowed his brow as he took the letter from me. “Humanity’s Reach Initiative,” he said under his breath. “They’re not offering any money,” I said, feeling my chest swell a bit with excitement. “All they want is someone who is really dedicated to helping the world.” Edrick looked a little skeptical. “We can give them a call if you’d like,” he said, supportive as always. “We’ll call tomorrow.” Indeed, the next day we called Humanity’s Reach Initiative. Within a few weeks, I was signing my first contract. They may not have had the grandeur or financial prowess of the other offers, but their dedication and commitment to their cause shone through. Their passion for creating a better world was undeniable, and I knew deep in my heart that they were the right choice. Rather than merely accepting their invitation, Edrick went a step further. He decided to invest in this organization, recognizing the immense potential they held to effect real change. It was a gesture that truly touched my soul. Together, we wanted to nurture and uplift those who shared our vision, knowing that every small step towards progress mattered. When we made our decision, the runner of the organization expressed her immense gratitude. Her name was Jolene, and we had been working closely with her for a few months. Countless press conferences, public events, and charity galas later, Jolene wrote a heartfelt letter, publicly thanking both Edrick and me for believing in their cause: To Moana and Edrick Morgan: I hope this letter finds you both in the best of spirits, for it carries with it an abundance of gratitude and appreciation. It is with utmost sincerity and admiration that I reach out to express my heartfelt thanks for your unwavering support and belief in our organization, Humanity’s Reach Initiative. Words alone cannot capture the depth of gratitude that fills my heart as I reflect upon the momentous decision you both made. Your selection of our small organization, despite the limited financial resources we possess, has reaffirmed our unwavering dedication to creating a more equal and just world. It is through the genuine intentions and unwavering commitment of individuals like yourselves that our vision can come to fruition. Your rejection of the enticing monetary offers from other brands and NGOs speaks volumes about your character and the values you hold dear. In a world driven by profit and self-interest, you have remained steadfast in your pursuit of genuine change. The trust you have placed in us is both humbling and inspiring, and it fuels our resolve to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those who need it most. Edrick’s decision to invest in our organization goes beyond mere financial support. It represents a partnership built on shared values and a mutual understanding of the potential we possess to create lasting change. Your investment is not just in our organization, but in the countless lives we aim to uplift and empower. Please accept my heartfelt thanks for recognizing the true essence of our work, which extends far beyond financial gain. Your belief in our mission to foster equality and justice serves as a guiding light, propelling us forward in our endeavors. Your support provides us with the means to continue advocating for those who have been marginalized and forgotten.

Your trust empowers us to dream bigger, to reach further, and to touch the lives of countless individuals who yearn for a better future. On behalf of the entire Humanity’s Reach Initiative, I extend my deepest gratitude to both of you. Your decision to choose purpose over profit has reinvigorated our spirits and solidified our commitment to the cause we hold so dear. We are honored to have you as partners in our journey, and we look forward to forging a future of meaningful impact, together. With immense appreciation and warmest regards, Jolene Leader, Humanity’s Reach Initiative Reading that letter, which was published in the local newspaper, made tears come to my eyes. But beyond that, it was humbling. It was a humbling experience to witness the impact we could have on someone’s life by extending a helping hand. Their gratitude reassured me that we had made the right choice amidst all the chaos. In the days that followed, as news of our collaboration spread, I realized the true power that lay within me. It was not just the power of being the Golden Wolf, but the power to choose, to discern, and to inspire change. I understood that the path I had been thrust upon was not just about protecting nature but also about using my influence to create a more just and compassionate world. The overwhelming offers and temptations had momentarily veered me off course, but with Edrick’s guidance, I found my way back. Together, we rejected the falsehoods and embraced the genuine opportunities. We were determined to remain steadfast in our purpose, never allowing ourselves to be swayed by materialistic desires. With so much change underway, the world really did feel like my oyster. And I was prepared to weather the tides of the ocean as the Golden Wolf, so long as I had my newfound family by my side.
