Chapter 319 A Glutton

Before returning, Branden had considered asking Catherine why she appeared at the underground boxing gym and even inquiring about her intentions in taking Erick away.

However, he abandoned all those thoughts when he saw Catherine’s smile. There was no need to question these things. After all, Catherine trusted him so much and surrendered immediately.

Branden reached out and gently caressed Catherine’s beautiful face with his long fingers. His voice also softened instantly. “Are you hungry?”

“Be good and wait here for me. I’ll go prepare something for you.”
