Chapter 397 I’ll Stay With You

Branden left, and Paxton was naturally the one to deal with the mess. Paxton watched his subordinates running toward him with astonished looks and knew that things were not simple.

His brows knitted tightly as he asked his subordinates, “What happened in there?”

One of his subordinates dared not answer but lowered his head and said to Paxton, “Paxton, you should see it yourself.”

Paxton strode to the culvert and understood why his experienced subordinates would have such dumbfounded looks.

Paxton saw the enemies passed out on the ground in various abnormal postures. He could not help but have the shivers. He even started to feel sorry for the enemies.

Paxton did not expect Catherine, who looked so delicate, to be cruel and merciless. Paxton decided never to offend Catherine in the future.

Seeing the scene before him, Paxton suddenly considered himself lucky. He was glad Branden was important to Catherine so she would show Paxton, Carlo, and Cory mercy during their fight. Otherwise, the three Duncans might end up like that as well.

She mulled over it and finally realized what was wrong. She got out of bed and walked out of the room. Branden was still busy at work with his laptop in the living room.
