Chapter 176

"What a coincidence.I also live nearby.Is it in Citadel Garden?" Brandon said excitedly.

"I'll send you off" offered Brandon.

Katherine thought for a moment to consider her options.If she continued to refuse, it would appear like
she was avoiding him.

Or maybe these people would think she was rude.

She smiled and was about to accept the offer when a familiar male voice interrupted her, "Katherine."

It was Zack.

Zack was a personality that could only be seen on TV.His handsome face and masculine figure were
not a common sight to be seen in any common crowd.

Now that they saw him in person, everyone present was a little surprised.

Brandon, who wanted to drive Katherine home, was stunned.

'How could Mr.Colburn, who was living far away in Y City, travel all the way here?' Of course, it was not
just Brandon who thought of it but also the rest who was observing the two.

The smile on Katherine's face faded.

"Mr.Colburn?" she frowned.

Zack walked over.

"Hey" he acknowledged by nodding his head.

After about a year of divorce, Zack finally understood Katherine.He could see how she despised him.



When she stated that she didn't want to see him, she wasn't lying.She was being honest and
transparent in her words.

In her bright eyes, not a single pretense could be seen.

Katherine was incomparable to any other woman.

When he appeared just now, he saw that the smile on Katherine's face faded.

She could smile when facing those old classmates she hadn't seen for ten years, but when facing him,
she didn't want to show him any unnecessary expressions.

Zack knew that if he wouldn't get straight to the point, she would probably say, "If there's nothing else,
I'll go ahead'

Katherine glanced at Zack for a second and then turned her head to look at Brandon.

"Sorry, I have something to do." As she spoke, Katherine looked at the other people behind Brandon.

"I have something to do, so I'll be leaving first"

She nodded and walked past Zack, going out of the party hall.

Zack glanced at Brandon.

Men understood each other when it came to body language.

Brandon's motivation for wanting to be close to Katherine was clear to him.

His eyes darkened.

He frowned and turned to follow Katherine.



"God? Am I seeing things? The man just now is Zack Colburn? The head of Q City Corporation? Zack
Colburn?" screamed someone in the hall as soon as Zack and Katherine walked out.

"You're correct.That man is Zack Colburn!" chimed another one.

Someone who was a little more composed pushed her gently and smiled back.

She clicked her tongue.

"Didn't you say that Zack didn't want Katherine? I don't think so! Just now, it was obvious that she just
ignored the one and only Zack Colburn! I've always felt that if Mr.Colburn didn't say something,
Katherine would probably say, 'If there is nothing else, I will go first!' How does this look like she was
the one dumped? It seemed like it was the other way around.It looked like Katherine was the one who
abandoned a rich family!"

"You are not the only one who thinks that!" continued the gossip of the two women.

The hall was buzzing with rumors about the relationship between Zack and Katherine.

Only the class representative gave Brandon a sidelong glance, sighed, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't even consider it, Brandon.Katherine is far from our reach"

Brandon pursed his lips and remained silent.He knew that all he wanted was just to be near her.

Katherine exited the hall and entered the elevator while Zack trailed close after her.She gave him a
brief glance.

"It's inconvenient to talk here.You don't mind if we go to a quieter place, right?" she asked him, looking
straight into his eyes without any emotions.



"Yeah, it's not a problem" Zack smiled and nodded.

Adam's apple rolled down slightly as he glanced at her partially curved lovely eyes.

In the past, why hadn't he noticed that Katherine's eyes were so brilliant even when she was upset?
The elevator arrived on the third floor in a flash.

Katherine took the lead and walked out first, taking only a few steps to reach the hotel bar.

The hotel manager happened to be in the area at the time.

He intended to go up and greet Katherine but halted as his gaze landed on her straight face.

‘'Forget it, the beautiful owner does not seem to be in a good mood” he consoled himself.
