Catherine's POV
"Catherine, come on. We're working together already. Why are you still treating me like an outsider? Why didn't you tell me that you're King Blake's mate? You have no idea. I've been living on the edge of my stomach these past few days, afraid that King Blake is going to give me a hard time. Catherine, would you put in a good word for me with King Blake? I'll be sure to support your work in the future. You are truly one of the most talented and stylish designers I've ever met, and it would be my loss not to work with you." Lorelei was a true showbiz woman. She could be as honey-tongued as she wanted. I couldn't help but smile. "As I said just now, it was our company's fault. Ms. Pope, I hope you will put this behind you and continue to work with us." "Of course. I'm a very easy person to talk to. Catherine, I'll come to you in a few days for new design drafts. Don't worry. I won't rush you. Since you're with King Blake, I'm sure you won't have mCatherine's POV I turned around and looked at her strangely. "What's the use of regretting now? You have done me harm. I'm lucky that I didn't die. I won't plead for someone who wanted me to die. Get ready to face the royal sanction." "We used to be colleagues. Do you have to be so ruthless? If I ever get out, I will hunt you down. Do you hear me?" Vanessa instantly became angry and shouted. The two wolf guards behind her heard her threaten and immediately scolded her, "Shut up! You will never get a second chance." Hearing her words, I sneered fearlessly and strode out. Vanessa did not know that the threat she had just made would doom her, because Blake would not let her off. Blake would never allow any danger to lurk around him or his close ones, especially his family. Leaving the council hall of the royal pack, I sat beside Blake. I was much more relieved, not as worried as before. Blake reached out and patted the back of m
Catherine's POV Blake said to me with deep affection in his eyes, "Are you still angry with me for what happened at the beginning? Maybe I've been on top too long to understand how hard it is to raise kids. That's why I think it is such an honor for you to have my babies. Now, I finally realize how hard it must have been for you to raise two kids as a single mom. And I'm sure Howard knows that now, too. As the father of the kids, I should take good care of you in addition to being grateful to you. Will you give me a chance?" My eyes narrowed. I had a delusion. "You're right. I should show the courage that I have!" I smiled. Blake looked at me in surprise. I realized that I could only calm down completely when I wasn't captivated by Blake. "Besides, it's not a big deal being with you anyway. We signed an agreement. I promised to act as your girlfriend well. Of course, I should keep my promise." I became sharp-tongued again. The eleva
Catherine's POV The atmosphere in the CEO's office was quiet in the charming afternoon sun. I held a glass of water and watched Blake concentrate on his work. The phone next to his hand rang occasionally. I listened to his firm and powerful reply about work. For some reason, I felt my blood speed up. A man who worked hard was the most attractive. He could be so charming, and he had no idea about it. Such a man was often the fatal attraction for women. I had already drunk a big glass of water, yet I still felt a little dry. I looked down at the glass. I even drank the last drop of water. It was so strange. Was I that thirsty? I licked my lip subconsciously. Unexpectedly, Blake saw it. I suddenly felt that the air that was still fine just now had become a little stuffy. I didn't have enough oxygen, and I began to feel a bit hot. "I'm going out for a walk!" I couldn't stay here any longer. The strange feeling made me feel uncomf
Catherine's POV I listened to Melinda's words and was shocked by what had happened. Blake acted so quickly! Then I told Melinda about my encounter with the rogue. Melinda asked with concern, "Is your injury serious? I'll give you a few more days off. Have a good rest." "It's nothing serious. I just got a scratch on my arm. It has been dealt with. I don't want to ask for leave. I'll go back to work tomorrow." I still had two important projects on hand, and I had to deal with them. "Cathy, Guy was taken away by the wolf pack guards. Does it have something to do with this accident?" Melinda wondered. I sneered and said without any sympathy, "Vanessa must have dragged him into this on purpose. I believe the Gamma of the royal pack can give me a reasonable explanation as to whether he was complicit." "If Guy did hold a grudge against you, it's probably best to keep him out of the company. You should talk to King Blake about it. He
Catherine's POV "What happened?" I asked, looking at Noah. "I don't know. When I got to school in the morning, I suddenly felt very nervous, and then I felt scared. I fell without noticing," Noah said. I was stunned. I realized that it might have been the same time while I was being injured. Did Noah sense something because of his connection with me? But Noah was still so young, and he hadn't had his wolf yet. So, I dismissed the idea. I glanced at him. "Did you apply some ointment?" "Yes. The teacher helped me do it. The teacher was scared. She must have thought that daddy wanted to pick on her." Noah laughed proudly. I was speechless. What kind of attitude was that? "You can't blame your teacher for this. You deserve it, and your daddy has no right to pick on her," I immediately scolded Noah sternly, not allowing him to use Blake as his shield and be complacent. Noah immediately fell silent. Hedwig gloa
Catherine's POV Blake's eyes flickered as he replied, "Of course. Whether he and Vanessa were conspiring against you or not, I will not hire him ever again, given that he had an affair with Vanessa. Why? Are you eyeing his position?" I was stunned. Did Blake think that I wanted to be promoted? "No, I'm not. I just want to ask you if you have anyone in mind." I was so nervous my palms were sweating. "Yes. I've made my decision. It will be ... you." He smiled. He was calm, and there was a hint of laziness in his eyes. He pointed to me. "Me? No way!" I didn't expect Blake to ask me to be the head of the Design Department. I didn't even dare to think about it. Blake's eyes darkened slightly. "Why not? You haven't done it before. You don't know." "I want to recommend someone to you. You can think about it. She is more suitable than me in every aspect," I said eagerly. "Who is it?" Blake's expression had returned to normal. He look
Catherine's POV I was embarrassed, and I had a feeling. He did it on purpose! Just as he was about to get handsy and wanted to make a further move, the voices of Hedwig and Noah came from outside the study. "It's so strange. Where are daddy and mommy? They are not in mommy's room, and they are not in daddy's room. Are they out?" Hedwig said in a panicked tone since she couldn't find us. Noah reached out and knocked on her head. "You fool. Look at the lights in the study. They must be inside." After Noah finished speaking, he raised his hand and was about to twist the doorknob. Meanwhile, Blake and I, who were inside the study, stiffened. I reached out my hand almost instinctively and pushed Blake away. As soon as I bounced off his arms, I saw Noah open the door and come in with Hedwig. "Daddy, mommy, you are here! I want some milk... Mommy, can you fix me a glass of Ash's formula?" Hedwig said pitifully. I hastily tidi
Catherine's POV I couldn't believe Blake had been watching me in the shadows. In other words, he saw what I just did! I felt extremely ashamed and immediately turned to leave. "Stop!" I had only taken a few steps when I heard his command from behind me. I stopped obediently and turned around. I glared at him with some resentment. "How long have you been standing there? Why didn't you make a sound? Did you deliberately make me a fool? You are so terrible." "You're just saying that because you're embarrassed. Right?" There was a smile in Blake's eyes. I was stunned. Damn Blake! Just as I decided not to talk to him for the rest of my life, Blake quickly walked toward me. Then, with a strong and overbearing grip, he pulled me towards the balcony. My eyes were wide open. I looked down at my wrist that was tightly grabbed by Blake, and I had been forcefully led forward by him. "Blake, what are you doing? Let go! I'm going to
