Catherine's POV
My imagination was quite rich, and I rarely went to amusement parks. Right now, I didn't want to be frightened anymore. I would rather admit that I was a coward. "Aren't you scared?" I closed my eyes tightly, my face buried in his shoulder. My legs were pressed against his waist, and I was practically hanging on him. I asked him with frustration. "No!" Blake said only one word in a very low and firm voice. In the next second, I felt Blake's hand on my shoulder. With his arm around me, we quickly walked through the dark corridor in front of us. Although there were still a lot of scenes that frightened me, somehow, I became brave with Blake's arm around me. When we were about to walk out, I quickly twisted my body and broke free from his embrace in an instant. "Mommy, you came out before daddy. Was daddy more scared than you?" As soon as Hedwig saw me, she immediately ran over and asked curiously. "Your mCatherine's POV The sky gradually darkened. "It's getting dark. Time for us to leave." Blake said in a low voice. "Daddy, why should we leave just because it's getting dark? Look! The lights are on. It's so beautiful." Hedwig didn't want to leave. Blake said to her patiently, "Daddy will take you to dinner now. We can carry on tomorrow." "Why don't we eat around here? I think there'll be some amazing shows later. And we don't come here often." I felt it was a pity to miss such a chance. However, Blake said in a deep voice, "No. It's dangerous when it gets dark. We'd better leave." I heard his worries and nodded at once. "Let's go back to the hotel now." Nothing beat the safety of the kids. Hedwig and Noah were exhausted. They fell asleep in the car. I held Noah in my arms, while Blake held Hedwig. After spending the afternoon with them, we were both a bit tired. After we arrived at the hotel, the two kids
Blake's POV Catherine was like an ostrich, which made me helpless. But I didn't want to force her either. So, I went to wake up Hedwig and Noah, and then the four of us went to the hotel's restaurant. After dinner, Hedwig watched TV, Noah took the laptop, and Catherine sat cross-legged on the bed, working with her laptop. I was supposed to be the busiest one, yet now I had nothing to do. In the end, I chose to sit with Hedwig on the sofa and watch cartoons with her. I patiently explained any questions Hedwig raised, but I couldn't help looking at the woman on the bed in the bedroom. It was soon past eleven o 'clock at night. "Mommy, I want to sleep with Noah tonight. You and daddy should sleep here!" Hedwig ran to Catherine. I was sitting in the living room. After hearing Hedwig's words, I instantly fixed my gaze on Catherine, wanting to know her response. Catherine was shocked. She stared at Hedwig in confusion and as
Blake's POV Hedwig and Noah widened their eyes, waiting for Catherine to nod. "Fine. Hedwig, Mommy promises to sleep with daddy tonight. But you have to give me your word. Don't kick the covers off. Or you will catch a cold tomorrow. Understand?" Catherine finally compromised. Noah patted his chest and promised, "Mommy, don't worry. I'm Hedwig's brother. I will take care of stupid Hedwig." "Yes! Mommy, don't worry. Noah will take care of me!" Hedwig said. I was moved by the two kids. They were growing up. I held Hedwig in my arms and kissed her face. "Let's go. Daddy will carry you to sleep." "Daddy, put me down. I don't need you to carry me. I've grown up! You should stay here with Mommy!" Hedwig said. Noah jumped off the chair and walked over. He held Hedwig's hand and said, "Let's go. I will take you to bed!" "Daddy, remember to lock the door. Otherwise, mommy will flee away!" Before going out, Hedwig reminded me co
Catherine's POV After Hedwig went back, I locked the door, and then I heard Blake. I knew he was lying back on the ground again. "What did you think of what the kids just said?" asked Blake suddenly. "Which part?" I asked. "The things about stepmother and stepfather." I was stunned and said, "Let nature take its course." "What do you mean by that?" There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Blake's voice. "We aren't mates. If you meet your mate in the future, will you reject her?" I said. He suddenly sat up, walked directly to me, and said, "I've been spoiling you too much lately. You're not taking me seriously enough." I felt a sense of danger, and I covered my mouth quickly. "You haven't answered me seriously." Blake stared at me. "What do you want me to answer?" I asked. "Are you intending to find the kids a stepfather?" Blake's tone became inexplicably cold. I tilted my face, looked at the l
Catherine's POV I looked down at the floor and saw that Blake was lying lazily on the floor. He was still sleeping. After a night, his robe was already wrinkled. His strong and impressive long legs were showing, which were full of strength. The muscles of his lower part were bulging out. The sight shocked me. My mind went blank. Blake didn't even cover himself with a quilt. He had no trouble at all exposing each part of himself to me. "Hey!" With just a glance, I grabbed the quilt on my body and threw it at him. Blake was awakened by the quilt that suddenly flew over. He said in a lazy and low voice, "What's wrong?" "Why did you sleep with cover?" I asked. Only then did Blake slightly raise his body and look at it. Then he rose his thin lips, and he smiled charmingly, "This happens to every man in the morning. Did you see it?" "Stop!" I was pissed off. How could he be so cheeky? Blake still smiled,
Catherine's POV Blake stiffened, and he was silent. Seeing that, Noah said disdainfully, "Daddy, is that a no?" "Of course not." "Then why are you hesitating?" asked Noah. "Noah, how about this? I'll put a tenth of my fortune in your mommy's name. What do you think?" "A tenth? Daddy, you're so stingy! Let's go, mommy. Don't marry him!" Noah walked toward me and held my hand. I thought Noah was joking with Blake. Even if Blake did offer me money, I wouldn't take it. "Noah, do you know how much a tenth of my fortune is? It's about 200 million dollars," said Blake. Noah paused and turned to look at Blake. "Is that a lot?" I was stunned by the figure. I subconsciously nodded at Noah. "Yes. It's more than a lot." "I see. Fine. Mommy, do you think that'll do?" Noah asked, blinking. I stroked his cute face and said, "It's too much, Noah. We shouldn't be greedy." "Alright. If mommy said so, then I guess it
Catherine's POV The four of us continued to visit the zoo until lunchtime, and the two kids were tired. Blake held Hedwig, and I held Noah. We walked towards the gate of the zoo slowly. After lunch, Henry reported to Blake that the royal pack had an urgent business that needed Blake. So we rushed to the airport at once. Howard also took Blake's private plane back to Sayreville together with Ash and Rowena. In front of the hotel, I saw Rowena for the first time. Rowena looked at me in surprise. "Are you Ash's mommy? Hello, my name is Hedwig!" Hedwig looked up happily and greeted Rowena. Rowena was shocked. She looked at me, and then she looked at Hedwig. She asked, "Hedwig, whose child are you?" Hedwig pointed to Blake and said, "This is Blake. And this is Catherine. They are seeing each other!" Hedwig instinctively hid the fact that Blake and I were her parents when facing outsiders. I saw that Blake was a
Catherine's POV "I don't want to explain it to you. You won't understand anyway!" Noah said to Hedwig unhappily. I noticed Noah's mood and was stunned. Noah had a good temper. He was not the kind of kid who got gloomy easily. But he was unhappy now. Was it because I didn't think about Blake's proposal properly? I didn't expect that Noah would care so much about this. I was in a pickle. "Noah..." He snorted. "Noah, are you not talking to mommy?" "Yes!" "Then what do you want mommy to do?" I felt a bit worried that I had made my son angry. "You should think about daddy's proposal carefully and thoroughly," Noah said seriously. I immediately said to him seriously as well, "Noah, you have my word. I will think about it carefully. It is not midnight yet, right? And your daddy has not come back. Even if I have made a decision, I can't tell him now." Hedwig pouted unhappily. "Mommy, what are you ta
