Chapter 408 Just a Little Business

Catherine emerged from the private booth, heading for the restroom. As she turned the corner, she felt a pair of eyes fixated on her from behind.

Catherine halted and turned.

She saw Adrien standing at the far end of the corridor, his gaze clearly sizing her up. He also noticed Catherine turn around. He initiated the greeting. “What a coincidence, us dining here?”

He had clearly been standing there for a few minutes.

Was it a coincidence?

Not at all.

Catherine gave him an indifferent look, then turned to leave. Adrien hadn’t anticipated Catherine’s reaction.

He immediately tried to stop her.

“Catherine, we cross paths, and you can’t even say hello?” he called out. Turning back once more, Catherine cast a nonchalant glance at Adrien and scrutinized him from head to toe.

She dismissively uttered, “Hi, Adrien.”

Her expression seemed to question him.

“Is that enough?

“Are you satisfied?”

Adrien was growing more intrigued by his niece. She was certainly different from the rest of the Langs. He approached Catherine with a friendly smile.
