Chapter 775 Taking You for a Ride Halfway through the movie, Catherine felt a strong urge to doze off. She had no interest in this kind of romantic comedy. Catherine might have fallen asleep long ago if it weren't for two bold girls approaching Branden for his Whatnumber in the middle.
Seeing her drowsy, Branden reached out and rested her head on his shoulder. "Twenty more minutes, then I'll take you back." "Hmm." Catherine made a muffled sound, leaning quietly on Branden's shoulder with closed eyes.
The movie was like a lullaby, increasing the desire to fall asleep. In no time, Catherine closed her eyes and drifted off.
A few minutes later, as Catherine slept, sgirls approached.
When Branden noticed someone getting closer, his calm face immediately darkened, and he shot an icy glance straight ahead.
Startled, the approaching girl was disoriented. If it weren't for the urging from the people around because she blocked the screen, she might have frozen in place.
It was mainly because Branden's aura was too powerful, and she was scared out of her wits.
Now that she had regained her composure, she fled immediately, not daring to linger.
With the steady rhythm of Catherine's breathing in his ears, Branden felt sconcern, worried that she might be uncomfortable sleeping in this position.
Packing up, he lifted Catherine's bag, carried her in his arms, and walked out of the theater.
When Catherine was lifted, she was aware but was already accustomed to Branden's embrace. Knowing Branden was holding her, she felt a strong sense of security and continued sleeping peacefully.
The combination of a handsman and a beautiful woman was always eye-catching. Since Catherine and Branden appeared in the cinema, they had becthe center of attention. When Branden carried Catherine out of the theater, they still attracted everyone's focus.

The person just logged into the social platform and posted the photo, but before she could check the sending status, her account was directly blocked.
After that, the person received a warning from the system, telling her not to send sensitive photos and texts. The social platform's response was so fast that the person was startled. Realizing she had taken something she shouldn't have, the person immediately deleted all the photos and videos from her phone.
Upon reaching the parking lot, Branden received a message from Paxton. [Mr. Duncan, the photos online have been taken care of.] Branden didn't bring bodyguards on this trip, but due to the sensitive period, any news related to him could potentially affect the Duncan Corporation's stock prices.
For safety reasons, the entire public relations department of the Duncan Corporation was on high alert. As soon as any photos or news related to the Duncan Corporation appeared online, they were dealt with immediately.
Paxton knew that Branden and Catherine were out on a date. Although these two didn't have a deep understanding of their appearance, Paxton understood how stunning they looked.
Going out like this without any disguise would indeed cause trouble, so he had people keep an eye on the internet. Unexpectedly, someone actually uploaded a photo.
Branden looked at the sneakily taken photo. The angles were cleverly designed. It captured both his and Catherine's profiles. Sleeping Catherine resembled Sleeping Beauty, nestled in his arms, peaceful and beautiful like an oil painting.
He tapped the screen lightly and saved the photo.
After packing up everything, Branden started the car, ready to depart.
The moment the engine started, Catherine woke up slowly. Because she had just woken up, her voice sounded a bit low and hoarse but exceptionally pleasant. "Where to?" "Back to the old mansion for srest? "Branden inquired about her opinion.
He felt Catherine was a bit drowsy and wanted to take her back to rest.
Catherine shook her head, rejecting Branden's proposal. "Tired." She had spent two days straight at the old mansion and was getting bored.
"Okay," replied Branden. Since Catherine didn't want to go back for now, they continued their date.
As Branden was about to start the car, Catherine glanced at him. With that look, Branden immediately understood her intention.
He opened the car door and got out, and Catherine directly stepped over the center console and sat in the driver's seat..
Since being with Branden, Catherine hadn't driven for a long time.
When Branden fastened his seatbelt, she immediately stepped on the gas, speeding the car out forcefully.
Under the neon lights, the silver-gray sports car looked like a silver dragon roaring on the vast road.
Catherine's driving skills were exceptionally excellent. She often participated in racing competitions when she was in the black market.
Every race had a sky-high prize, but no one had ever beaten her.
She was fast, skilled, and, most importantly, unafraid of death. As long as she could let go and fight, she could easily win.
Catherine drove up to 320 mph on the deserted mountain road. The winding road didn't slow her down; she continued to speed along.
Branden sat calmly on the side, enjoying the exhilaration from the speed.
In a convenience store halfway up the mountain, Catherine stopped the car.

She raised an eyebrow and looked at Branden on the passenger side, to gesturing with her eyes for him to wait in the car. Then, she pushed open the car door and rushed into the convenience store.
When Catherine cback, she was carrying two large bags of alcohol.
After throwing the alcohol into the back seat, she sat back in the driver's seat and sped the car to the mountaintop. Under the slightly cool breeze, the two sat at the mountaintop and overlooked the dazzling neon lights of the entire city.
"Cheers!" Catherine raised the bottle, squinting at Branden.
Initially, Branden didn't want Catherine to drink, but seeing her so happy, he swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue.
Both of them had good alcohol tolerance, and today, with Catherine's good mood, it didn't take long for the two bags of alcohol to be emptied. She swayed as she stood up. "I'll buy more." "Enough drinking." Branden was somewhat helpless, reaching out and pulling her arm, bringing her back with a tug.
Catherine stumbled and fell directly onto Branden's lap.
Branden flipped over and instantly pressed her to the ground.
Their eyes met, and Catherine moved first. She raised her head and precisely kissed Branden's lips.
Branden smiled somewhat helplessly. Only in front of her could he be repeatedly led by the nose.
As the body temperature continued to rise, the two, who were somewhat tipsy from the alcohol, becuncontrollable.
Under the moonlight, they immersed themselves in this boundless romantic night.
