Blake's POV
"Blake, thank you for believing me. To be honest, you scared me just now. I thought you wouldn't trust me easily." Catherine was very grateful. I said self-mockingly, "I was indeed very angry at first. I even felt like I was about to lose you. But I know you. Nothing happened between you and Harley, because you couldn't stand being touched by men. Am I right?" Catherine nodded. "Blake, after this is over, I will take the initiative to do it with you. I hope you can mark me then." I didn't expect to hear the words "take the initiative" coming from her mouth. I gently held her in my arms and kissed her on the forehead. "Don't worry. I won't force you. But I do hope that we can be together soon!" Catherine put her arms around my waist. "Let's get married when I find my parents!" Her proposal surprised me. I said with joy, "Really? Are you willing to marry me?" "Yes, I am. After I find my parents, we can get ready toCatherine's POV "I can promise you anything. Please don't take me to the police. I promise! I will never interfere in your affairs again. Catherine, I am begging you. I was really wrong." Gina was shaking with fear. I looked at her and felt that she was nothing but a pathetic joke. "Why did you do all this when you knew you would end up like this?" "I didn't know that I would be caught by you so quickly. I always thought that I was very capable, but now I finally learn my lesson after these setbacks. Some things are just not for me, and they will never be mine, no matter how much I fight for them!" Gina finally realized. I could tell that Gina was regretful, but I still did not want to forgive her. Because it didn't feel right to me that a person could always be this lucky to be forgiven. "I'll go back to the company now. You can help me put an end to it." I turned to look at Blake and said in a low voice to him. "OK." Blake nodded.
Catherine's POV I was well aware that Patricia wanted to psych me out. I just didn't get it. We would be a family soon. Did seniority rules matter that much? Besides, I always respected her, because she was an elder. I never disrespected her. I sighed. Were there so many rules and restrictions in the royal pack? After seven o'clock, I took a shower. But I did not go downstairs then. Instead, I sat on the sofa in the room, feeling depressed. When the kids were tired of playing and went back to the lakeside villa by car, both of them rushed directly to me. "Mommy, Emerson told me a lot of great stories!" Hedwig said with a smile. I stroked Hedwig's head and said, "I'm glad that you like them. You can ask him to tell you more in the future." "Mommy, is daddy not back yet? I'll wait for him upstairs!" Hedwig turned and ran upstairs. I turned my head to look at Noah, only to see that he was also looking at me with hi
Catherine's POV I knew Noah was very smart, so I was in a pickle now. In fact, I enjoyed talking to Noah most of the time. He had his way of thinking. And he could be very helpful sometimes. But right now, I was reluctant to tell Noah my thoughts, because Noah was too sensible. I was worried that the dispute adults had would hurt him. "Noah, mommy has to work. See? Mommy can't even draw with you standing here," I said, pointing to my messy painting. Noah nodded and said, "Well, I will leave you to your work. But if you are treated unfairly, don't clam up. You can talk to daddy. He will help you feel better." "It seems that your daddy is omnipotent in your eyes. Do you worship him?" Noah snorted coldly, "I don't worship him!" Noah was embarrassed. I laughed even more heartily. Blake's POV Around 7:30 pm, I returned to the lakeside villa. As soon as I walked in, I saw a small pink figure jumping off the sof
Blake's POV I walked over, squatted down, and looked at Noah. "Because your mommy doesn't want you to worry. Alright now. Go downstairs and play with Hedwig, and I'll talk to your mommy. Don't worry. I won't quarrel with her. We will chat peacefully." Noah said, "I'll go play with my toys. I don't want to play with stupid Hedwig." "Up to you." I stood up, opened the door of the study, and went to Catherine's room. Pushing the door open, I saw Catherine standing at the edge of the bed. Catherine looked at me and asked, "What's up?" "Did Patricia say anything to you?" I rushed back in a hurry, because I was afraid that Catherine would be scolded by Patricia. Patricia sounded very mad on the phone today. Catherine's face paled when she heard me. "Do you care?" "What did Patricia say to you? Tell me, OK? I'm very worried about the relationship between you two. I don't want things between you two to be too ugly. After all, both of
Blake's POV Noah blinked his big eyes and quickly walked down. Patricia immediately put him on her lap, pinched his face, and then pinched his arms. "Noah, you're so thin. Don't you like eating?" Noah immediately shook his head and said, "Patricia, I'm not thin at all. I don't want to become chubby. That way, no girls will like me!" Patricia was instantly amused by Noah. She pointed to me and said, "See? Noah is the younger version of you. He already knows that he has to be a ladies' man at such a young age!" I didn't remember saying such naive things when I was a kid at all. "I called Leo. Maybe he'll be here later." I said. "Really?" Patricia was excited. "I haven't seen him for quite a long time." Emerson pulled a long face. "He doesn't have to be here if he doesn't want to. No one is begging him to come here." Patricia looked at Emerson a little crossly and said, "It's all your fault. Why did you quarrel with him back the
Blake's POV A few minutes later, I came to the study wearing a gray nightgown. "What is it?" I swept my gaze over her body and saw that her skin was as fair as the nightgown she was wearing. My heart throbbed. I involuntarily walked over to her side and sat down. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her petite body into my embrace. Catherine said, "I found some clues about my parents, but now it seems to be a dead end. I want you to help me." "Sure!" I would not refuse any of her requests. Catherine looked at me with gratitude, and I could not help but kiss her lips. Catherine's tense body slowly softened. I let go of her in time. Looking at her blushing face, I reached out and pinched it. "What have you got?" Catherine quickly took out her phone and showed me some photos. "I found an exhibit in the royal gallery that seemed to be a couple with my necklace. I asked the curator, and he said that someone deposited it there.
Blake's POV "Are you curious?" I took another puff and sneered. "Not at all!" Henry's expression was very interesting. I could tell that he was indeed very curious. I was amused by his expression, and then the atmosphere relaxed a little. "I know him." Henry quickly nodded. "Really? How?" My voice was as cold as ice. "He is old. If your investigation is right, he is Catherine's grandfather." "What? How is that possible?" Henry was stunned. I stood up from my black office chair, and my voice was a little irritated. I said, "So, Catherine is the lost daughter of the Fox family." "It seems that I met her when I was a kid, and I even kissed her cheek before." I was lost in my memories, and there was a hint of mockery and sadness in my tone. When I was young, the Fox family had twins. They were extremely cute and made countless people envious. The girl was particularly pretty. Her eyes were like crystals, delicate an
Blake's POV When I got off work in the afternoon, I called Catherine and asked her out for dinner tonight. There would be no kids. It would be just me and her. Catherine agreed. I went to her company in my car, picked her up, and we went in the direction of the restaurant. Sitting in the car, I looked out the window, as if I had forgotten that she was also in the car. Catherine took the initiative to come to my side and asked, "What's on your mind?" I turned my head around. Her eyes flickered as lights and shadows flashed across them. Looking at her eyes, I felt that my mind was a mess. "Nothing!" I got annoyed for no reason. At the sight of her charming eyes, I recalled the fact that she was the daughter of the Fox family that I had kissed when I was a child. I could not calm myself down. Catherine had always been sensitive, and she seemed to have sensed something, so she simply sat up straight and stopped disturbing me.
