Chapter 923 Everything Belongs to Her
After receiving the data from Arbotte Laboratory, Lance immediately led his team into a frenzy of overtime work. The information provided by Arbotte Laboratory gave them a breakthrough and set them on the right path. After several days of research, the team overcame a technical barrier.
Excitedly, Lance found Cory and said, "I have good news for you! Our experiment has reached the third stage!
Upon hearing this, Cory was also delighted and said, "This is indeed good news. Lance, congratulations. By the way, Boss is here. Let's go and share this piece of good news with him.
When Lance heard that Branden was present, his eyes lit up. Previously, he had been impressed by Branden's charm and believed that Branden was not just a profit-driven businessman but also had a great love for the country. This was why Lance was willing to join Red Star Laboratory for research.
After Lance's arrival and careful observation, it became clear that Branden was intelligent and highly capable, and he was not a mere money-minded merchant. Cory then took Lance to meet Branden. "Boss, Mr. Broadman is here!"
Branden put down the documents, stood up, and walked towards Lance. "I heard the experiment has broken through the third stage. Congratulations!"
Lance, in an unusually good mood, expressed his gratitude. "Mr. Duncan, the smooth breakthrough and completion of the third stage of the experiment wouldn't have been possible without the data provided by Arbotte Laboratory. I didn't expect you to have a stake in Arbotte Laboratory as well. I'm truly impressed!"
Branden glanced at Cory, who quietly explained, "Boss, you and Miss Swann are destined to be family. Arbotte Laboratory is essentially half yours, and half of our lab belongs to Miss Swann."
Branden glanced at him with almost no change in his expression. Even such a light and fleeting look made Cory's heart race, leaving him pale. "Boss, It's my fault! I shouldn't have said something like that!"
"Yeah, you shouldn't have," Branden replied coldly. "If she likes it, it's all hers!"
Cory was left speechless, Branden's public display of affection hitting him like a blow.
Lance hadn't quite grasped the situation yet but found their conversation quite intriguing and couldn't resist asking, "Mr. Duncan, what's your relationship with Arbotte Laboratory?"
Branden gave Lance a casual look and said, "The head of Arbotte Laboratory is my fiancée, and she will also be in charge of Red Star Laboratory in the future. Everything of mine, including myself, belongs to Catherine, as long as she needs it."
Lance was momentarily stunned before it finally sunk in. He hadn't realized that the woman Branden had chosen was even more impressive. And he was shocked to see Branden's smile. He didn't understand young couples' love, so he decided to focus on arranging the lab's research work.
Today, Branden came to the laboratory mainly to check the progress of the research. He was eager for the experiment to succeed quickly.
Cory followed him and found it strange that Branden seemed more anxious than usual about this project, which was crucial for the Duncan Corporation.
"Boss, I feel like you're placing a lot more importance on this project than ever before," Cory said.
Branden, standing on the steps, gave him a scrutinizing look. "Is there a problem with that?"
"No problem!" Cory didn't dare to argue.
"Then get to work."
After dismissing Cory, Branden looked at the progress chart alone. His experiment was about to be completed, and the gifts he had prepared would soon be complete. How could he not take this seriously?
After leaving the laboratory, Catherine went to the campus to find Thomas. She spotted Thomas and Branden playing chess in the small park on campus. She noticed that when Thomas was around, Branden's intimidating demeanor seemed to subconsciously soften, showing a humble and respectful side of a young man.
"Good game!" Thomas exclaimed, then noticed Catherine and waved at her. " Cassie, why didn't you come over?"
"You were so engrossed in your game. Who won?" Catherine asked.
As she approached, Branden took her hand in his, gently massaging it. “It's a draw," he said.
Thomas shook his head in disagreement. "It can't be a draw. Your skill is definitely superior to mine. You're just going easy on me because of my age,
right? I may be old, but I can still tell!"
Branden smiled faintly and didn't respond.
Catherine looked at the chess pieces on the table, each one smooth, round, and
translucent, clearly of high quality.
Thomas noticed Catherine's gaze and quickly showed off his new treasure."

Catherine glanced at Branden, and they exchanged a meaningful look. She didn't
expect him to be so good at pleasing people.
Thomas was usually quite reclusive and had a peculiar personality, but he had a
hobby-playing chess.
The emerald chess pieces were undoubtedly valuable, but what mattered more was that some things couldn't be bought with money.
