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 ofBlake'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.
Blake's POV After dinner, Catherine and I left the restaurant. I held her hand and suggested, "Let's not go home yet. It's still early anyway. Let's go shopping." "Shopping for what? We are not buying anything!" Catherine said in surprise. "I want to buy something for you. What do you want?" I held her hand tightly. I looked at her and smiled. Catherine shook her head. "I don't want anything." "I'm sure you do. Think again!" I knew Catherine said that, since she did not want to spend my money. But today, I wanted to spend money on her, because only by giving her something she liked would I feel less guilty. "Then let's go check out the kids' clothes. I like to buy things for them." Catherine had the most primitive nature of women. Ever since she had kids, every time she passed by the stores selling children's clothes, she always wanted to go in and touch the clothes, whether she bought them or not. "I want to buy you something. We'll buy things for the kids next time
Blake's POV Patricia immediately looked sad and said, "You never talked to me like that before. I know it. You don't love me anymore. I am not the most important woman to you now!" "Patricia, what are you talking about?" I hurried over and hugged her. "Cathy is our family. I hope you can get along well." "I am an elder, and she should respect me. Shouldn't she?" Patricia still felt aggrieved. I sighed helplessly. "Here's the thing. I should respect you, because I'm your grandson. But she has not married me yet. You two should respect each other." Patricia immediately said with dissatisfaction, "Why hasn't she married you yet?" Hearing that, I asked with a smile, "Grandma, are you saying that I can marry her?" Patricia looked a little embarrassed. She sighed and said, "I didn't agree before, but I like the two kids very much. You and Leo didn't have a mother when you grew up. It's a regret that will accompany your whole life. I always feel guilty. I've done some thinking
Blake's POV Catherine blushed slightly at my words. She said, "I want to be here for a while longer." "Then I'll be here with you," I said. Catherine shook her head and said, "I'm done. You should head out. I need to change." "What if I don't want to go out?" I said cheekily. Catherine frowned. Then she ignored me and stood up straight. After she took off her wet clothes with her back to me, she reached out to take the white bathrobe next to her and wrapped her warm body. Then she turned around and said, "I'm going to sleep. Take your time." I was stunned for a long time. Why did I feel that I had been eased? When I left the bathroom, I paused and subconsciously walked to another guest room. I pushed open the door and saw Catherine, who was already asleep with a quilt in her arms. She had already taken the medicine placed on the table. I was still worried. I walked to the side of the bed and bent down. I reached out and placed my hand on her still-hot forehead.
Catherine's POV Blake and I went to the doctor. The doctor needed to take my temperature before making a diagnosis. I leaned on the bed and watched the nurse take the thermometer, shake it, and put it in my mouth. Blake stood aside and watched. The nurse was experienced. But when I felt the thermometer, the coldness made me tremble a bit. Seeing that, Blake frowned. His face went sullen, which made the nurse terrified. After a few minutes, the doctor told Blake and me that I had caught a cold. He asked us to stay here while he prescribed something for me. Then he left together with the nurse. I turned to look at Blake. "I'm fine here. Go to work. I'll take a taxi back later." "I'll skip the morning. I'll stay with you!" Blake took a chair and sat down. I was surprised. He had a lot on his plate, yet he was willing to spend all morning with me. I was very touched. "Will your work be affected?" I did not in
Third People's POV After what happened last time, Emerson's condition got worse quickly. Blake did not know if Richard would ever regret what he did. Right now, Blake simply wanted to spare Emerson any regrets. Then, it was time for him to settle accounts with Richard and Nick. Therefore, with Catherine's consent, in less than a month, he and Catherine sent out wedding invitations after their engagement. Abigail and Patricia gave Catherine a white wedding dress that cost nearly 10 million with thousands of diamonds on it. Catherine was so moved that her eyes turned red after learning that Abigail and Patricia had given her such a precious gift. Their ring had been custom-made a long time ago. It was a rarity with only the best diamonds, and it took the most skilled craftsmen nearly a month to polish. The ring, which had yet to be named, was finally given a name by the purchaser, Blake, and he called it "the one". It was Catherine's wedding
Catherine's POV In the morning, the sun was shining brightly. In this month of snow, it was a rare sunny day today. On this day, the love story between Blake and me finally had a perfect result. We were going to be engaged. This made the whole city excited. Everyone was talking about it, looking forward to seeing the scene of our engagement banquet. Blake prepared this engagement banquet in a hurry. In his view, everything was not perfect, but he was already doing his best to do everything. The Moon Goddess could vouch for me. I didn't care about this. As long as he was by my side, I would be satisfied. Emerson was very happy and very pleased. He could finally see his grandson getting married. At my engagement party, Abigail was present, but Halsey could not come. Because he did not want to ruin my engagement party. Today was the engagement party. It was not our wedding yet, so I did not wear a white wedding dress. I only wore a dar
Third People's POV The next morning, the news of Blake and Catherine's engagement was spread. It was not discovered by the reporters. Instead, because the Chavez Pack had sent the invitations early in the morning, the people who were invited would naturally talk about it. Thus, some media outlets took the opportunity to report it. They did not exaggerate the engagement banquet and simply reported it. The media and reporters were smart enough and knew clearly about what they could report unrestrainedly and whom they couldn't afford to offend. Blake was a good example. The rumors about him on the internet would always be removed in less than an hour. Therefore, if someone was ignorant and posted something about Blake randomly, he would never be able to bear the consequences. He would lose his job, implicated the entire company he was in, and even go to jail. Emily browsed the news on the internet with an ashen face. Blake and Catherine were about to get engaged.
Blake's POV Inside the manor. Richard stayed for dinner. Nick was also called back by Patricia. Patricia called Leo, but Leo rejected her. Patricia scolded Leo for that. Leo was depressed and went to eat with Sunny. Because of Olivia, the relationship between him and Sunny had been bumpy recently. Since it was a family dinner, Catherine had to bring the children downstairs. Richard was sitting on the sofa and chatting with Nick. I sat next to him as the host. I was already Lycan King. I had the final say in the entire royal wolf pack. Therefore, Richard and Nick didn't seem happy. After Catherine brought the two children downstairs, Nick's eyes focused on her. Catherine wore a long white knitted coat. Her long hair hung on her back. She looked sweet and warm. My gaze inadvertently swept across Nick's face, which was filled with obsession. Although he quickly put that look away, I saw it clearly. I became wary. How dare he covet my woman in
Blake's POV The night fell. I returned home at six o'clock in the evening. My face was cloudy. At this time, Richard should have arrived home. The car stopped outside Mountaintop Villa. I strode into the parlor. Dowen quickly came over and greeted me. "Is Richard here?" I asked in a low voice. Dowen pointed upstairs. "He just arrived. Now he is talking to Emerson and Patricia upstairs." I frowned deeply and snorted in my heart. I had made a difficult decision that I would not do anything to Richard when Emerson was still alive. However, if he kept making trouble, I wouldn't show any mercy to him. I climbed the stairs. I did not go up to see Emerson and Patricia immediately. Instead, I walked to the toy room. Then, I saw two little guys quietly practicing writing and drawing. Catherine sat gently on one side and was teaching them. Under the warm light, the scene of two children staying with their mom looked sweet. "Daddy
Blake's POV I had heard the news from my assistant and knew that Leo had come to see me. When I saw Leo push the door open, I immediately frowned. "How much did you drink?" "I have something very important to tell you!" After Leo finished speaking, he raised a mobile phone. "This is Sunny's phone. She went to see Olivia and recorded Olivia's statement. It seemed that Richard was really behind it." "Play it, now!" My face instantly darkened and my voice was urgent. Leo clicked the recording. After the two of us listened to it, Leo said coldly, "This is the evidence. We can send Richard to prison again. The werewolf court will give him the trial he deserves." "Leo, I also have something to tell you!" I was very angry after listening to the recording, but I could not be impulsive. After a few seconds of silence, I finally made a decision. When Leo saw that I didn't react the way he did, his expression changed greatly and suppressed his anger.
Third People's POV At noon, the sun hid in the clouds and the sky was dark as if there would be a blizzard at any time. Emily paced back and forth in the room uneasily. She had someone keep an eye on the development of the accident. She didn't expect that the accident would end in just a few days. The family of the deceased accepted Blake's large sum of compensation. The man she picked was still held at the police station. Thus, Emily felt as if she was waiting for the coming of death. She felt sadder day by day. The man had received 100,000 from Emily. Emily believed that she would be investigated soon. However, she didn't understand why the police hadn't called her yet. This matter had already come to an end. On the night that the man was arrested, he confessed everything. The police found out that the man had several bank accounts. Although he received the money in batches, there were 100,000 in total. The money and the man's ambiguous attitud
Catherine's POV It was early in the morning. At breakfast, Blake brought up the engagement. The others were very supportive. No one had any objections. Emerson was simply thrilled. He rarely came down to have breakfast with us. Hearing that Blake and I were going to get engaged, he said excitedly, "That's great! The sooner the better!" Hedwig stirred the oats in her bowl, pouted, and asked, " Daddy, Mommy, after you get engaged, can I have a younger sister?" Everyone was amused by her words. I was the only exception. I blushed. Blake's gaze swept across my face, and he gently put his arm around my slender waist under the table. I was startled and quickly pushed his unruly hand away. "Hedwig, no talking when eating. Have you forgotten?" I was worried that Hedwig might say something blunter, so I reprimanded her softly. "I'm sorry, Mommy." Hedwig immediately became obedient again. "Catherine, are you on vacation? I
Catherine's POV Blake went to work early the next morning. Suddenly, my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and found that it was Halsey. I was very glad to receive his call. "Halsey, why are you back so suddenly? You should have told me in advance." "It was a last-minute call. Can we have dinner together tonight? It would be even better if you could bring the kids together with you," Halsey said gently. I hesitated for a moment and then whispered, "Let me ask Blake. If he doesn't want me to bring the kids out, I will come alone." "Alright. See you tonight." Halsey hung up the phone. Then I called Blake and told him about the call with Halsey. There was a bit of displeasure in Blake's tone. "Is he back?" "Yes. Can I bring the kids to eat with him?" I asked him nicely, wanting to know his opinion. "At a time like this, I don't think you should take the kids out." Blake still blamed Halsey. I didn't insist. "OK then. I
