Catherine's POV
Lorelei was no longer as arrogant as before. She sat in front of me with a modest smile. She said with politeness, "Ms. Wyatt, we had a little misunderstanding earlier, and I hope you were not mad at me. I was a bit hasty, only because I was in a rush for my performance." I immediately smiled, "What happened is our company's fault. You don't have to say that." "That's not true. I was too anxious and offended you!" Lorelei was eager to take the blame. I didn't want to waste my time arguing with her. Anyway, it was all over. "Ms. Pope, how may I help you?" I asked. "Well, there is something. But I'm worried that I might offend you if I say it!" Lorelei immediately blushed. "Just tell me." Lorelei quickly told me the purpose of her visit, "Ms. Wyatt, I don't know if you've been paying attention to showbiz lately. Right now, no one is a match for you in showbiz." I was stunned. "Oh? Since when did I hCatherine's POV I agreed. Melinda's words made sense. As arranged by my assistant, I had to meet three female stars today. One of them was Leo's new star. I heard that she came from a rich family. She was dressed very beautifully and had the pompous temperament of a rich family's daughter. Everything she used was from famous brands, and the total price was over a million dollars. I sized her up and figured that the car she drove was definitely expensive as well. A woman walking with a net worth of tens of millions of dollars should be able to afford such an expensive design fee. "Ms. Wyatt, I'm Sandra Newman!" The woman immediately smiled and introduced herself the minute she came in. She did not put on airs as some stars would do. "Hello, Ms. Newman. I heard that you want me to design something for you?" I quickly smiled and asked. Sandra smiled and said, "Yes. I heard that your design is very unique and stylish, so, I want to ask
Catherine's POV "Ms. Carroll, what makes you think I can help you?" I was a little helpless. "Of course, you can. You will become Mrs. Chavez soon. And Leo brought all his stars to the launch this time to support you. It means that he thinks of you as family. Does he dare to disobey you?" Roxanne immediately explained confidently. Well, she thought the whole thing through. I found it hard to turn her down bluntly. Since I could tell that she was very serious about this. "Ms. Carroll, Blake and I aren't married yet, so I'm not Leo's family for now. I may not be able to help you. I'm sorry." I politely declined. "Ms. Wyatt, you are too modest. You can just tell me that you don't want to help me. In fact, I know I'm pushing my luck. It's just that I like him so much. I have the feeling. He is the one! Of course, I know. I fell in one-sided love with him. And he is way out of my league. Why would he like me? After all, he is surrounded by so m
Catherine's POV I nodded. "Alright. Since you can handle so many styles, I'll think about it! But out of curiosity, of all the designers, why did you find me?" "I think you might be the inspiration for my next song. I want to get to know you!" Alina suddenly stared at me without blinking. What she said surprised me greatly. I blinked my eyes sheepishly. "I'm your inspiration? How so? You probably haven't seen me before!" "I've seen you before, but you probably don't remember me. After all, it was so many years ago." Alina's tone suddenly changed. I was even more shocked. I tried my best to recall her name, but nothing came up at all. "Sorry. It didn't ring a bell," I smiled and shook my head. "Catherine, I've been paying close attention to your launch a long time ago. I always thought it could not be you, but when I saw your work photo in your company, I was sure that it was you. I didn't expect you to be so successful in you
Catherine's POV Upon hearing Dr. Cooper's words, I tensed up. Yet I still nodded. "Sure. Go ahead." "Have you ever thought about that night in the last five years?" "No. I avoided it. I didn't want to think about it at all." "Then take a moment to think about what happened five years ago that caused you to break down." I closed my eyes and clenched my fists. For the first time, I was willing to face that night when everything went wrong. Suddenly, some images flashed through my mind. "I remember something!" My entire body trembled. Indeed, I recalled something. I just didn't want to dig into it. "What is it?" Dr. Cooper asked gently. "Tell me. Let me know what you are thinking." "I woke up once that night, because I was so painful. When I opened my eyes, I thought I heard Blake calling out a name, a woman's name." I suddenly sat up and covered my face. The pain deep down had nowhere to hide. "Do you remem
Catherine's POV "Blake, why don't you listen to me? I told you to leave me alone! Can you just go?" I was miserable. I just recalled what happened that night, and I didn't want to face Blake now. Why couldn't he just leave me alone? Couldn't I have an afternoon to pull myself together? "Cathy, I'm worried about leaving you here." Despite my objection, Blake still stubbornly approached me. I continued to take a few steps back. Just as I decided to leave with Blake, suddenly, my high heels were tripped by something. I lost my balance and fell back. I didn't see it coming. After letting out a miserable scream, I felt a figure rushing over. Within seconds, the two of us fell into the river. Blake could swim, but the river was fast-flowing. I didn't know how to paddle at all. Blake lifted me out of the water the second he fell. I let out a series of coughs, feeling extremely uncomfortable. Two pack guards help
Catherine's POV Blake nodded and said, "Alright. I'll tell you about my past." As he spoke, I reached out and took his arm, and I drew nearer. Blake said, "Emily was adopted by my uncle from the werewolf orphanage. My uncle and his mate never had any children. Later, the pack witch told him to adopt an orphan. To their surprise, they did have a baby the following year. To be honest, I still find it unbelievable." I blinked. "Is she so amazing? Which pack does she belong to? Should we go meet her too?" Blake immediately said, "There's no need. She once said that I would be a werewolf without a mate." I laughed. "Then, you don't believe her?" "No, I don't!" Blake said. "Fine. I won't go!" As he opposed it, I gave it up. Then I said, "Continue!" Blake continued, "Emily has been very considerate since she was young. She was a good girl, and always watched her step. My uncle and aunt were very kind to her, and my grandparen
Third person's POV Leo sat in his office chair, staring out of the window. Just now the senior managers of his company came over for a meeting. They talked about the latest urban romance the company was about to shoot, and suggested that the costumes for all the female leads should be designed by the now-famous Catherine. Leo's expression immediately became complicated when he heard Catherine's name. They kept persuading him to call Catherine and ask if she could take the job. Leo was becoming less and less concerned about work, daydreaming, and sleeping all day long. It was an opportunity, tempting Leo to call Catherine. Catherine was Leo's family. Why did he need to find a reason to call her? Why was he so timid about it? Leo was puzzled. He couldn't get the dream of the night before out of his head. In his dream, he went to attend Blake and Catherine's wedding. All of a sudden, he was the groom, which shocked him. I
Catherine's POV Around four in the afternoon, I heard the kids' footsteps outside in the hallway. I had finished two pieces of work, and when I heard their voices, I was no longer in the mood for work. I opened the bedroom door and the kids were a bit stunned when they saw me. "Mommy." Hedwig blinked her big eyes. Then she said, "You're home?" Noah immediately came over and asked with concern, "Mommy, are you sick again?" I walked quickly over, crouched down, and pressed my forehead against Noah's. "See? I'm fine!" Then, Hedwig asked curiously, "Mommy, were you fired?" Noah rolled his eyes at Hedwig. "Daddy dares not to fire mommy. Otherwise, we will fire him!" I grinned. "Noah, you are my little hero. No one dares to bully me because I have a good son like you. I'm counting on you, got it?" Noah immediately reached out and touched my head. He acted like a grownup and said in a serious tone, "Mommy, I won't let
