Chapter 708 Coffee Beans
When Catherine came out of the lab, she received a call from Audrey.
“Wait a moment. I’m coming right away!” At the school gate, Catherine saw Audrey. In just a few days, Audrey had lost weight.
“Do you need something from me?” Despite facing her sister, Catherine’s attitude was still chilly, and she spoke without warmth.
Audrey had long been accustomed to her sister, who seemed cold on the outside but actually valued the people she cared about more than anything.
“Kathy, are you getting used to being at Styre University?” Audrey looked at Catherine, feeling she was not doing a responsible job as an older sister. Instead of taking care of her sister, she often caused trouble for Catherine.
Without Catherine stepping in this time, she wouldn’t have made it through unscathed. Catherine not only helped her restore her reputation but also increased her popularity.
Now, calls for business were flooding in from Kim, and her external quotes kept rising. However, she wasn’t in a hurry to work. She could never earn enough money and wanted to take a break.
“Kathy, I plan to go on a trip for a while. I’ve been busy lately, working non-stop. I want to take advantage of this reason to relax and unwind on a trip,” said Audrey.
“Sure.” Catherine nodded slightly, agreeing with Audrey’s decision.
Audrey reached out to touch her but suddenly remembered that Catherine didn’t like being touched, so she lowered her raised hand. “I don’t have anything specific to discuss; I just wanted to see you before heading out. Take care of yourself at school. I’ll come back once I’ve had my fun.”
Unusually, Catherine didn’t show impatience. “Okay.”
In her view, it was good that Audrey wanted to take a break. With Shane keeping watch in Loxton recently, the people around her wouldn’t be too peaceful. Audrey’s leaving would reduce her concerns.
“I won’t disturb your studies. I’ll go now.” Audrey turned and left gracefully.
Catherine stood in place, watching her leave. She didn’t ask about Audrey’s development with Triston. She had made it clear earlier. She wouldn’t interfere in Audrey’s love matters.
Once Audrey completely disappeared, Catherine prepared to return to school.
The buzzing sound of her phone came from her pocket. Catherine took out her phone, looked at it, and silently sneered. She thought she had been quite busy today.
A few minutes later, Catherine knocked on Marshall’s office door.
“Come in!” said Marshall.
Seeing Catherine enter, Marshall got up and poured her a cup of coffee. “This is something good from Mr. Farrell. Try it.
He used the coffee beans he hadn’t been willing to drink himself and made a cup for Catherine as soon as she came.
He always valued his students more than his own children, especially this newest one.
Catherine took a sip. The coffee tasted good, and she took another sip.
Seeing that Catherine liked it, Marshall felt pleased. “If you like it, you can take the whole can later.”
If Winston passed by at this time, he would definitely stand at the door and curse at Marshall. Marshall hadn’t agreed to give him a cup of this coffee when he asked for it. Now, he generously gave all the coffee beans to Catherine. This old scholar was really biased.
“No need, Professor Hartley. If you like coffee, I’ll have Branden bring some,” said Catherine.
Karl also liked coffee, and the Duncans had many good coffee beans.
Sometimes, Branden would proactively buy some high-quality coffee, and there were quite a few of this quality in their apartment.
Upon hearing this, Marshall suddenly smiled. “No need. It’s enough that you have this intention.”
With her usually cold temperament, Catherine found it redundant even to glance at strangers. The fact that she thought of bringing him coffee showed that she sincerely regarded him as a teacher and a mentor.
Marshall felt happy in his heart. This student of his cared about him. “Let’s get to the point. I called you here to discuss something.”
Marshall knew Catherine’s nature of not liking to stand out. He wouldn’t have asked if anyone else had that opportunity, but Catherine was different.
