Chapter 950 Grand Opening

Catherine got a message from Branden saying he had some last-minute stuff to do in the neighboring city and wouldn't be back until tomorrow morning.

Actually, he didn't need to rush back, but he insisted, so Catherine went with him.

As she had no need to go back for dinner, Catherine didn't leave the lab building and worked overtime peacefully.

"Catherine!" someone called her.

Hearing the sound, Catherine turned around and saw her senior from the same laboratory standing at her door, calling out to her.

'What's the matter?"

The senior pointed outside. "Someone's looking for you outside and let me pass along a message.

"Got it." After Catherine responded, she paused her work and walked out of the workroom. When she arrived at the lobby, she saw Rylan standing in the center of the lobby.

Rylan accurately captured her faint footsteps.

He looked up and caught sight of Catherine's beautiful eyes. A smile instantly appeared on his face. "Are you planning to work overtime?"

"Don't you know?" Catherine looked at him coldly.

Rylan should know her schedule like the back of his hand.

Rylan was momentarily stunned by her cold tone. Then he finally smiled awkwardly.

'Branden didn't pick me up for a day, so Rylan came instead. If he hadn't received the message in advance, how could he have been so punctual? There aren't that many coincidences in the world. I don't believe in coincidences, thought Catherine.

After a brief moment of silence, Rylan finally spilled the beans on why he was here today." Have you eaten yet? A new restaurant just opened tonight. If you haven't eaten, let's go together."
