Blake's POV
When I returned to my office, I found two uninvited guests sitting there. They were Howard and Benjamin. "Why are you here?" Howard and Benjamin looked at each other, and Benjamin said, "We read about Catherine and Leo's affair early in the morning, and we came to show our concern." When Howard saw that I was silent, he asked in a low voice, "Blake, maybe you should talk to Leo and let him clear things out." "He's right. No one will ask any questions as long as Leo sets things straight. He can also go public with your relationship with Catherine," Benjamin said. "Thanks for looking out for me. I still need to talk to her about this." I had thought the same as them already. When I invited Catherine over, I wanted to talk to her about this. Unfortunately, she was scared away by my enthusiasm. "Blake, I've never seen you care so much about a woman." Howard smiled meaningfully. Benjamin glared at Howard and saiBlake's POV I hung up the phone and looked up. I saw Leo looking at me with surprise. "What?" I asked. "You just told Grandma that Catherine is your mate. Why did you lie to her?" I said seriously, "I did not lie to her. I wanted Catherine to be with me." "What?" Leo could not believe what he heard. He was a little dazed. Then he said, "Has Catherine agreed to be with you?" "She will, for the sake of the kids." I was confident. Before, when I took the kids away from her, I saw how desperate she was. I knew at that moment that she would absolutely sacrifice anything for them. Leo frowned. "Then aren't you using the kids to force her into the corner? What's the point?" "I just need to be with her. Do you understand?" I wanted to say that I had fallen in love with her, but I found it hard to say these words in front of Leo. "Blake, aren't you always picky about women?" asked Leo. "I was. But not anymo
Catherine's POV After I hung up the phone, I felt someone behind me. I turned around and saw a tall figure leaning against the wall behind me. I quickly put my phone behind me, and asked unhappily, "How long have you been standing there?" "Who were you talking to?" asked Blake. I paused. "A friend." After saying that, I walked around him and quickly walked towards the bedroom. He followed me into the bedroom. "I have something to tell you." "What?" I turned to him. "Leo will hold a press conference tomorrow to clarify your relationship with him," said Blake in a low voice. He paused and continued, "And he's going to make another announcement." I stared at him in surprise. "What else?" "He will state to others that you are my girlfriend." "How could you let him say that?" I was a little angry. Blake raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. "Don't forget that we have signed an agreement. Even if things go public, it will be
Catherine's POV I sat with the kids at the dining table, and the atmosphere seemed warm. "Daddy, is there an amusement park around here? I want to go there," Noah suddenly asked. Blake glanced at my face and casually replied, "Ask your mommy. She makes the decisions now." I stopped eating and looked at him strangely. He seemed easy to talk to today. "Really? Mommy, you now have the right to speak. Daddy has delegated the power to you!" Noah grinned. After I took a bite of the macaroni, I said lightly, "That's right. So, regarding the matter you mentioned just now, I reject it." "What?" Noah's happiness only lasted for two seconds. His face fell. "Why? Hedwig and I have never been there. I heard others say that there are all kinds of delicious food and fun things in the amusement park. I want to go there!" As soon as Hedwig heard his words, her gem-like eyes immediately lit up. "Really? Noah, what kind of food do they h
Catherine's POV "I like holding your hand." Blake grinned shamelessly. Did he have to say such sappy words? "I don't like it. It's awkward." I had never been held by a man like this, and I felt utterly uneasy, as if I were bitten by countless bugs. It was numb and itchy, making me very uncomfortable. "You'll get used to it sooner or later." Blake even held my hand tighter. I felt his strength. He was so insatiable. I quickly shook his hand. "Let go of me!" Blake was helpless and had to loosen his grip. I hurried forward. I heard his low laughter coming from behind, and it sounded very annoying. I was even more overwhelmed, and I cursed. Blake opened the door and made a gentlemanly gesture to me. I bent down and sat in the car. Then a strong tall figure sat beside me. The inside of the car was already very cramped, and as soon as Blake sat in, there was even less space. "Let's go." With a command fr
Catherine's POV Leo immediately smiled. "Come and take a sit." I turned around and sat back down on the sofa. Blake lazily sat beside me. I smelt his cool mint scent. It first spread to my nose, and then I felt that it also wrapped around my heart. My face was faintly burning, and I blushed. "It's about time. Turn on the TV and watch me live. I'll go down now." After saying that, Leo tidied up his clothes and walked out the door. Leo left just like that. Immediately, I felt that no matter how empty the space was, it was still hard for me to breathe, since only Blake and I were left alone in the room. On the other hand, Blake was calm and composed. Blake turned on the TV, and we watched the live stream in the hall downstairs. The hall was already filled with media reporters. As soon as the elevator doors opened, they immediately aimed their cameras at the two people who came out holding each other. It was Leo and Jessic
Gina's POV I had a lot fewer events, so, my schedule had become flexible lately. But I had already been thinking of ways to rise to fame again. I was planning on working with a male star to have a pop-up scandal to hype up my popularity. The person I had my eyes on was Leo. He was looking for a supporting actress in his latest action movie, and I wanted an audition. If I made it, I could regain some popularity. Unexpectedly, I saw the rumors about Catherine and Leo. The media assumed that Catherine was the mysterious girlfriend that Leo had been keeping from the public for many years. What the hell! So, I decided to take Catherine's necklace to make a deal with her. However, I saw something even juicier. I was so pissed off because of the news. My face turned livid, and my body trembled. Leo announced his relationship with that female star named Jessica, and he also clarified the rumors he had with Catherine. He
Catherine's POV I didn't expect Gina to find my mother's obsidian necklace, and I also didn't expect her to make such a harsh offer. I thought for a moment and said, "I can give you money. Or I can talk to Blake to let you get back to showbiz and be famous again." "No. I don't want any of that. I just want to see you break up with him," Gina hesitated for a moment, but then she refused. I was surprised that Gina didn't want money or fame. She was so determined to see me break up with Blake. "I won't break up with him. As you said, as long as I am with him, I can have as much money and fame as I want. The necklace you have is very important to me, but it is only something for me to remember my mother. I am kind of a snob, so, of course, money means more to me." I put on a disguise and pretended that I didn't care about the necklace. I smiled coldly. Sure enough, Gina's expression changed greatly as she stared fixedly at my face. "You
Blake's POV When I stepped into the parlor, I saw Hedwig sitting on the sofa, looking listless. I hurriedly walked over and asked gently, "Hedwig, what happened? Did Noah bullied you again?" "Daddy, you're home!" Hedwig immediately stretched out her hands and asked me to hold her. I gently held Hedwig in my arms and sat on the sofa. "Tell me, why are you unhappy?" "Noah doesn't like me. He said I would pee on his bed, and he refused to sleep with me." Hedwig pouted, looking very hurt. I froze. I kissed her angry face and asked with a smile, "You always sleep with mommy. Why do you want to sleep with Noah?" "I want mommy to sleep with you tonight, so I want to sleep with Noah, but he doesn't want me around," Hedwig said innocently. I asked Hedwig with a smile, "Hedwig, do you really want daddy to sleep with Mommy?" Noah was so naughty. I had to talk to Noah when I got him later. "Yes. Noah said so. But mommy seem
