All Her Secrets

Chapter 335 Sweet Strawberries

Branden didn’t seem hungry at all, as there was only a plate of pasta primavera on the table. While Catherine was eating, he sat quietly by her side.

Occasionally, he picked up his phone to attend to messages, seemingly working. Even though he was wrapped up in work, Branden still watched Catherine closely, never taking his eyes off her.

Unlike Catherine’s dominating and cold demeanor, she was exceptionally graceful while eating, clearly indicating the strict training she had likely received since childhood. She ate quickly but with a touch of elegance in every bite.

Catherine had a rhythmic way of eating, taking a bite of pasta followed by a sip of soup, almost like a well-rehearsed performance.

Before long, Catherine had polished off her pasta primavera, leaving just a bit of soup. She gently pushed her empty plate forward as if showing off her accomplishment.

Branden’s hands, calloused from years of gun practice, gently brushed her cheek. Catherine was quite familiar with those calluses, and their location revealed his frequent shooting practice.

Catherine had similar calluses once, but Ronin had discovered them. Ronin had forced her to apply various softening creams, transforming her callused hands into the soft, delicate ones they were now.

According to Ronin, a girl’s hands should be soft and smooth. Catherine didn’t really mind, but since Ronin insisted, she went along with it.

Branden’s deep, raspy voice whispered, “Babe, just relax for a bit, and I’ll join you once I’m done with the dishes.”

At first, Catherine wanted to refuse him. After all, she wasn’t a child. She didn’t need him to look after her. But when she looked into Branden’s gentle eyes as she raised her head, all the words she had planned to say disappeared.

Branden’s eyes were not just good- looking. They had a way of convincing people, and whatever he said was hard to resist. Catherine had to go along with whatever he wanted.
