Catherine's POVI had breakfast with my sister, mom and dad. My father was at the head of the table, my mother was on his left side, I was next to my mother, while my sister was on my father's right side. During the quiet breakfast, I could feel my father's gaze for a few moments before his call sounded."Catherine." He called me in a cold, piercing tone. "You mustn't forget to invite Benny Thompson here. You should get closer to him, especially since that young man seems to have an interest in you."The man stated what I already knew and had said before about Benny. I was also impressed by how the background of the man who had long been a friend felt like family to me, rather than all of them who felt like strangers in my life.He was still talking while I was still trying to chew the food slowly, but the inside of my mouth was surprisingly dry, and my food felt hard to swallow. I always felt like this when my father reminded me of his interest in marrying me off to Benny.I was like

Catherine's POVI was startled when I saw the man's brown eyes, which looked both deep and sparkling beautifully. I could see the twinkling look in his eyes even though there was no particular expression on the man's face.It was the first time in my life that I had seen someone's eyes that clear. The man's hair was also brunette in colour, which seemed to complement his casual but neat appearance, like that of a model student at school.This was the first time I met the man in front of me, but strangely, I felt like I had already seen him on another day. I don't know when and where, but I'm sure that his face is something I've seen before.I didn't think about it further, already coming back from my fixation on his eyes and noticing that his expression and attitude were very different from my assessment of the man's facial features that suited my taste.I grunted, standing up to face him directly and glaring at him as sharply as I could. "Why don't you help me? Isn't helping someone

Catherine's POV I didn't expect that man to be from the Duncan Family. Some time ago, my father had talked about that man's family. This large and reclusive family had its own education system. They favoured the private education concept and never took formal lessons for the public like most other families did. That was because the Duncan Family had its own human resources, educators, and experts who could teach their successors, every member within the Duncan Family, and their fellow family staff. However, recently, the special family made a different choice. Their successor decided to pursue formal public education, and I had the opportunity to meet him. ".... would be useful if you knew the successor well, Catherine." My father said at that moment. I didn't expect what my father said to actually happen, even though I didn't realize it for the first time. Sarah sounded a gasp that brought me back to reality, her eyes looking wide at me. "Wow, you keep watching her...." She smil

Catherine's POVI'm a designer, so there was nothing wrong with the red dress that looked glamorous and glittered under the light. Over the years, I've gotten used to making all sorts of clothes, including something similar to this sexy dress seen in front of me.The problem was that I had never worn a dress that was cut low in the front and too revealing in the back. All the models I've hired have used dresses made by me, but this time, I'm like a model who can't help but wear clothes that don't match the clothes I usually wear.I don't know what mom, or maybe my dad, was planning to do with this dress. I was never given the chance to complain, so all I could do was accept their orders as usual.I knew that, in the end, my purpose for being in this family was to be courted by a big family that could be useful to the Varma Family in the future. Perhaps there was already a man who had personally asked me to wear a dress like this, or they just wanted to change things up since they hadn

Catherine's POVI was already in the car with my family.My father seemed to be in a good mood and looked at me and then spoke. "I didn't know that you could really get close to Edwin Duncan, Catherine. That's a very good thing. Why didn't you ever tell me?"I looked at the man, who looked completely different from his rigid and hard facial expression. Apparently, he could show me different things on his face and in his words, as long as I was his son, if I did what he wanted."Sorry, Father." I only said that in response.He started talking about something else regarding a man I wasn't really close to. My mother and brother were also involved in the conversation, but I wasn't listening at all.I only knew that they were still talking about the things that happened at the party, especially all the things related to that guy. I knew that my parents really wanted a son-in-law who had a strong position among conglomerate families like ours.Not only would it be useful to raise the status
