Chapter 760 A Happy Cooperation
Watching Branden approach, the people in the maintenance team instantly became more vigilant. In the next second, they entered a highly alert state.
They collectively aimed the guns they were holding at Branden as if they were going to shoot in the next second.
If they fired at the same time, Branden would immediately be shot and die.
In the face of such a threat, Branden’s face remained calm. He kept walking non-stop, and even his walking speed did not change.
His eyes were blazing with cold eyes, staring straight at the alliance leader ahead. “Let’s talk about it.”
The guards behind the alliance leader wanted to say something but were stopped by the alliance leader himself.
The alliance leader thought in his heart, “This is my territory, surrounded by my people. Branden offered to talk in public, and if I refused, what would my people think of me? Florona doesn’t need a cowardly alliance leader. I need to be not only confident but strong.”
“Come here!” After the alliance leader’s order, Branden got into the car along with the alliance leader.
Even though the other party was the alliance leader of Florona, the supreme existence of Florona, Branden did not look inferior to him.
Including those people around Branden, each of them was an existence that could defeat a hundred people alone.
The atmosphere was temporarily eased because of the discussion between the two big shots, but it was still tense.
As long as the situation was not right, both sides might start a war at any time.
Regan’s heart was in her throat as she watched Branden get into the alliance leader’s car.
She turned her head to look at Catherine beside her. Catherine remained calm, even with a somewhat indifferent expression as if she had completely ignored all of this.
Regan couldn’t help but inquire, ” Aren’t you worried?”
Upon hearing this, Catherine turned her head sideways and looked at Regan with some confusion. “Do I need to worry?”
Catherine’s firm yet calm tone made Regan freeze.
She could tell that Catherine was very confident in Branden. It was the kind of confidence that could only be built up between two people based on the long time they had known each other and even shared life and experiences together.
Such a tone made Regan envious. All those years of separation had left her knowing nothing about her son.
Seeing that the situation there had calmed down, Jotham immediately hinted to Regan.
Regan didn’t react after receiving his hint. This was a bit unacceptable to Jotham.
He couldn’t help but shout out, “Regan, let’s go home before it’s too late.”
Regan, who had always obeyed him, did not comply with his decision this time. “I still have some things I need to take care of. I’ll meet you when I’m done, okay?”
Looking at Jotham’s eyes full of sadness and supplication, Regan hoped Jotham could understand her.
It was obvious that all of this was just her own thoughts.
The moment she refused Jotham, Jotham changed the expression on his face.
Jotham thought in his mind, “As soon as the members of the Duncans appeared and did nothing, Regan changed her mind. I’ve been so good to her over the years, but can’t she see it?”
Thinking about this, Jotham was extremely sad but even more angry.
He continued to mutter in his mind, “I won’t let Regan leave Florona, let alone the people from the Duncans. No one can take Regan from me.”
Jotham began to deploy. He called his most trusted cronies and explained everything he was going to do.
Zobber and the others surrounded Catherine slowly. Amos was still in the hands of the alliance leader’s men. However, after Catherine just fired that shot, the maintenance team members were all intimidated.
Without orders, they didn’t dare to hit Amos easily, nor would they seek death to provoke Catherine.
None of them dared to anger Catherine.
Zobber was a little bored. She had always been fearless, even in such an environment, she was still relaxed and casual. “What do you guys think Branden and the alliance leader are going to talk about?”
Upon hearing Zober’s question, everyone turned their gaze to Paxton.
They didn’t dare ask Catherine about that. The only person they could ask was Paxton, who was around Branden.
Among these people, Paxton was the one who knew Branden the best.
Faced with everyone’s gaze, Paxton silently felt a little nervous. “Could you guys stop looking at me like that? Hasn’t anyone ever told you guys that your gazes are quite scary?”
“Tsk…” Zobber snorted disdainfully. ” Do you also have moments of fear?”
Paxton admitted. “If it were you, being stared at by a group of people with similar strength to you, wouldn’t you be afraid?”
A random person from Zobber and the others could fight Paxton for a few rounds.
If they joined forces together to fight Paxton at the same time, Paxton would basically have no chance to fight back. He might as well just choose to surrender and admit defeat.
In a situation like this, he would have to admit defeat even if he didn’t want to.
“Forget it. It’s useless to talk to you about this. You just need to believe that there is nothing Mr. Duncan can’t solve. “Paxton spoke with incomparable confidence.
He was quite an admirer of Branden.
Zobber originally wanted to retort, but once she thought of all the things Branden had done, she silently shut her mouth.
Branden was indeed strong, and it was still widely recognized. Paxton’s statement was based on evidence, and Zobber had no reason to refute it.
After more than ten minutes, there was still no movement in the car. Ronin, who was impatient, couldn’t wait any longer.
He muttered to Catherine in a low voice. “Catherine, it’s not a solution to wait any longer. Why don’t we kill our way out?”
Although the other side had a large number of people, they were not vulnerable. If they started a war, they still had a chance to win.
“Let’s wait a little longer!” Catherine trusted Branden. He had never let her down.
After a few more minutes, there was finally movement inside the golden Hummer.
Branden and the alliance leader got out of the car at the same time. Branden’s face was still cold and expressionless but the alliance leader’s expression had obviously changed from gloomy to full of smiles.
It could be seen that the result of the negotiation between Branden and the alliance leader was good and that the conditions provided by Branden were very satisfactory to the alliance leader.
They walked to Catherine. The alliance leader took the initiative to extend his hand to shake Catherine’s hand. “You and Mr. Duncan are our most honored partners from now on. I wish us a happy partnership.”
Catherine wasn’t sure what Branden had promised the alliance leader yet. But she knew leaving there safely with everyone was the most important thing right now.
Before she could reach out, Branden held her hand while his other hand held the hand of the alliance leader. ” Hope we have a happy cooperation.”
The alliance leader could tell Branden didn’t like other men having physical contact with Catherine, so he laughed. ” Mr. Duncan, you are so petty.”
Branden glanced at Catherine with a smile in his eyes and laughed softly. ” My pettiness is only limited to certain aspects.”
He could be generous, but when it came to Catherine, he was more petty than anyone else.
Catherine was his bottom line, and no one could break it.
