Chapter 68 Not Good Enough
Bryan noticed that the guys were stunned at what they saw, so he turned around. Instantly, he started gaping.
Vroom! Vroom!
The sound of an engine roaring and it was deafening.
A top-range motorcycle, a Phantom Harley-Davidson, zoomed past. It made a beautiful turn in front of Bryan and slowly came to a stop, which was so cool and handsome.
The person on the motorcycle took off their helmet.
Catherine did an attractive hair flip to throw her messy hair back to normal. Her luscious hair danced in the wind.
This scene stunned everyone who was watching.
“Wow!”
“Oh my!”
“So, so hot!”
Catherine was honestly so attractive. She was beautiful, hot, and also had an air of mystery. It was impossible to describe the feeling.
Bryan felt his heart pound as butterflies fluttered in his stomach. Some emotion was about to burst out of his chest. He felt like he was going out of control.
After Catherine parked the bike, she arched an eyebrow at the group of guys with their mouths wide open. “Aren’t we going to eat barbecue?” she asked coolly. “Why aren’t you going yet?”
Catherine’s cold voice pulled Bryan out of his thoughts and back to reality.
He nodded quickly. Even though he had snapped out of his reverie, he did not know what to say. It was as if he had gone speechless.
Catherine put her helmet back on and said to Bryan, “I will wait for you at the intersection up ahead!”
With that, she pressed down on the gas pedal.
She left in a cloud of dust and disappeared before everyone’s eyes.
David recovered from his shock. He patted Bryan’s shoulder and whispered, “Bryan, our Boss is too hot, too amazing.”
“Initially, I thought that Boss was not good enough for you. But now, for some reason, I feel like you are kind of not good enough for her,” he added.
He looked cautiously at Bryan after he was done speaking. He was scared that Bryan would lose his temper.
Instead, Bryan looked matter-of-factly at David and said in a serious manner, “No shit, Sherlock. What do you mean by ‘kind of? I’m not good enough for her at all! What you had just said is an insult to Boss. Do not say stuff like this in the future.”
With that, Bryan got into his own car.
David looked at Bryan’s back in surprise. It seemed like Bryan had gone crazy. He was completely crazy in love!
After Bryan got into the driver’s seat, he gazed at the new car that he had just gotten. He had been in love with it this morning and did not even allow David to touch it.
For some reason, it was not as attractive as before.
No wonder Boss did not want to ride in his car. Why would Charlotte sit in his crappy sports car if she had such a cool motorcycle?
Bryan unwillingly stepped on the gas pedal. He decided that he would switch to another car
tomorrow.
The
group quickly reached their destination.
It was a new barbecue store. David had discovered it, and it had been on his list of restaurants to visit for a long time. He never had a chance to, but today, they decided to make Bryan treat them to it since Catherine was willing to join them.
After they took a seat, the server brought over the menu and instinctively handed it to Bryan.
However, Bryan handed it over to Catherine. “Boss, what would you like to order?” he asked. respectfully.
Catherine did not hold back at all. This was just a meal to her, and there was no point in being polite. She would order what she wanted and pass the menu to the next person.
“I have chosen the food I want. You guys can order what you want!”
Bryan glanced at the food that Catherine chose and was secretly overjoyed. He felt like he was one step closer to Boss.
They had the same taste in food!
This restaurant was quite famous. Many people came to try it out.
A foodie like Triston would not miss out on this kind of place for anything in the world.
His friends booked a private room without him requesting it and invited him here.
Triston strolled into the restaurant. He looked like he casually walked in and did not have a
care in the world.
However, when he walked up to the second floor and looked down, he saw a beautiful figure and froze immediately. He widened his eyes and looked carefully. Finally, he confirmed that his eyes were not lying to him.
The friend that came with him saw that Triston had stopped walking. He hurried over and asked, “Triston, what is wrong?”
Triston glanced at his friend. Then he took out his phone and made a call while standing there.
People were still working at the Duncan Corporation.
There was a top management meeting happening then in the president’s office.
Not many people were there, but they were the top executives of the Duncan Corporation.
The atmosphere in the office was both quiet and serious.
At least, it was quiet until the ringtone sounded out.
The phone’s ringtone was abnormally loud inside the silent office.
Everyone panicked a little and looked subconsciously in the same direction.
Branden glanced at his phone on the table and picked it up casually.
He raised a hand, and the person who had been reporting stopped talking immediately.
Triston’s excited voice streamed out of the phone. “Mr. Duncan, do you want to eat barbecue?”
When Branden heard this, he moved to end the call without saying anything.
On the other end of the phone, Triston seemed to predict that he would do this. “Mr. Duncan, Catherine is here too!” he called out at the critical moment.
Branden’s finger stopped above his phone screen. Then he pressed the phone close to his ear again.
“Give me the address!” he uttered coldly from his thin lips.
“Mr. Duncan, do not worry. I have sent the address to you and will be waiting for your arrival.”
Branden ended the call and stood up.
Paxton immediately got Branden’s jacket and handed it to him.
After Branden put on his jacket, he walked out of the office without looking back. The other executives stared at each other.
No one knew what had happened. What could be serious enough for their president to go personally? After all, he had never left a meeting like this before.
It seemed that something major had happened.
In the barbecue restaurant, Bryan and the others had started eating already.
They were all youngsters, so they did not hold back once they started eating.
At first, Bryan had been worried that Catherine would feel awkward or unaccustomed having dinner with a large group. After all, Catherine had a cold personality and did not seem sociable.
To his surprise, things went in a direction he would never have expected.
Catherine was not socially awkward at all. Even though she did not say much and kept a cold expression, she ate and drank to her fill.
She also had a strange aura about her. Even though she looked cold, people would still feel comfortable around her.
In other words, Catherine did not say anything, but no one at the table felt awkward.
The atmosphere was good, so David suggested they have a drink.
Bryan peered at Catherine. Since she did not object, Bryan asked the server to bring over some beer.
After the beer was served, Bryan opened a bottle and placed it before Catherine. “Boss, would you like some?” he asked tentatively.
Catherine did not say anything. She just reached out to grab the bottle. Suddenly, another hand reached over and snatched the bottle from Bryan.
Everyone turned around, and they were stunned instantly!
