Third person's POV
"All you have to do now is to accept mommy being with Harley. Let's go piss daddy off together!" Noah whispered into her ear. "But this is unfair to daddy. Daddy will be so sad!" Hedwig loved Blake very much. She did not want to hurt him. "Idiot! Daddy made a mistake first. You should trust me. I don't think they will truly break up!" Noah said confidently. "I don't want to believe you!" Hedwig curled her lips. "Who else can you believe? I'm telling you, if you want daddy to make up with mommy, you have to listen to me!" Noah still said confidently. Hedwig's head went blank. She couldn't think of any ideas. When she thought that her parents were going to separate, she became anxious. Noah seemed very confident, so she nodded. "Fine. I believe you. What do you think we should do next?" "Let's go downstairs now, and do as I say. Remember to say whatever I told you to, and everything is going to be alright!" Noah graBlake's POV I was a little stunned watching Hedwig leave without looking back. It seemed that Hedwig blamed me for everything. It was my big mistake not to ask Catherine to stay and Hedwig had every reason to be mad at me. "Is Hedwig never going to talk to me again?" I turned around and asked Noah as I assumed that kids always understood each other better. Noah shrugged and said indifferently, "I don't know. When stupid Hedwig is sulking, it usually takes a week for her to get over it. So, just give her some time." "A week?" I was dumbfounded. "Alright, forget about stupid Hedwig now. Daddy, what happened to you and mommy? Why did you suddenly become like enemies?" Noah began to question me. I knew Noah was going to ask, but I didn't want to tell him. "Noah, just remember that I didn't have a better choice. My hands are tied!" I couldn't hide the sadness in my tone. "Why? What's troubling you? Tell me. I can change mom
Catherine's POV The parlor of the lakeside villa was brightly lit. As I entered the door, I saw Patricia sitting on the sofa drinking coffee. It was late, the kids must be asleep. I had mixed feelings when facing Patricia. We had been getting along very well. Patricia was a nice person who cared for her family. It was a pity that we couldn't become a family. "Ms. Wyatt, have a seat. We need to talk," Patricia put down the cup and said to me. I nodded, and then I sat on the sofa next to me. Dowen asked a servant to bring me a cup of coffee. "Blake has told you everything, right? I can only say sorry about this. You are not wrong, but we are not wrong either. Blake's mother left her two children and married your father. In any case, I hate your father and Blake's mother. They are selfish," Patricia said calmly. I nodded. "I know. This is more than right or wrong. I understand." "So, I didn't mean to ask you
Catherine's POV It was early the next morning. When I woke up, I saw Noah and Hedwig on my bed. They lay on the bed, blinking and watching me sleep. "Mommy, did we wake you up?" Hedwig asked. I sat up from the bed. "Why are you two up so early?" "Mommy, have you and daddy made up?" Hedwig asked without answering my question. Noah, who was lying beside her, sighed like an adult, " Looks like they haven't. Didn't my plan work yesterday? No way! Daddy should have been jealous by now." Noah's words left me a little speechless. I knew it. Of course, Noah didn't want me to be with Harley. What Noah said yesterday was just to piss Blake off. "Noah, Hedwig, drop this, OK? Don't make your daddy mad." Blake looked so tired and painful last night. How could I go on to hurt him? Hedwig's eyes widened. "Really? Will daddy leave us?" Noah patted Hedwig on the head. "You are so stupid! Daddy is so much better than that! He will be
Catherine's POV I followed Leo to a separate room. Leo suddenly turned and stared at me fiercely. "Are you really Halsey's daughter?" I nodded. "Yes. I am Halsey's daughter. Do you hate me?" Leo walked to the sofa and sat down. He said, "Are you sad that your wedding is off?" "Yes, I am!" I did not attempt to conceal my emotions. "But there's nothing we can do. There's no way we're getting married..." I was in so much pain that I could not speak. Leo looked away and said sarcastically, "How was this possible? You are his mate!" "But my father hurt you and Blake. I'm sorry," I apologized. "Why should you be apologizing to me? It's not your fault. Halsey should make up for the mistake he made," Leo snarled. "I know. But I'm still his daughter!" I was so sad. "What does Blake think? Does he hate you?" Leo asked as he looked at me. I shook my head. "No. He's in pain, too. He's sick now. Maybe you should go check on him." "Loo
Third person's POV Soon, Catherine returned to the lakeside villa. She knew Blake was in the study, yet she did not go over to see him. Catherine walked into the bedroom and began to sort her things out. The pain in her heart was killing her as she packed her suitcases. She wanted to see Blake. Catherine suddenly did not want to pack up. She did not want to leave... The bedroom door was pushed open, and Noah and Hedwig stood at the door. "Mommy, are you really moving out?" Hedwig cried. She ran over and snatched the clothes in Catherine's hands. "Don't go. Stay here. Daddy won't let you go." Noah turned and ran out. He could not bear to separate from his mother. Catherine crouched and hugged Hedwig. She said gently, "Hedwig, I'm not going far away. I'll still live in this city. If you miss me, you can ask Dowen to take you to see me." "No! I want mommy and daddy to be together. I don't want you to be separated!" Hedwig sobbed.
Third person's POV Patricia crouched and said, "Noah, Hedwig, I don't know if you can understand what I'm saying here. Your mommy and daddy are now siblings. Do you get it?" Catherine was angry and said to Patricia, "Patricia, how can you tell them that? This is too much for them." Patricia looked at Catherine and said, "If I didn't tell them, they would think that we bullied you." Noah looked at Catherine in confusion and asked, "Mommy, how can you and Daddy be siblings?" Catherine didn't know how to answer Noah's question. Patricia said to Noah, "Because your mommy's father married your daddy's mother." Noah and Hedwig looked at Catherine. "Mommy, that's messed up!" Noah said to Catherine. Hedwig looked up and asked Catherine, "Mommy, I can't understand!" Patricia said sarcastically, "Catherine, you should explain it to them." Catherine crouched and said gently to Noah and Hedwig, "It will take time for you to understand it.
Catherine's POV I went downstairs and walked to Dowen's car. I knocked on the car window, and Dowen opened the trunk. I pushed the suitcase in and sat in the back seat. "Dowen, let's go now. Thanks!" I said politely. The man in the driver's seat did not speak. The car made a U-turn and drove off. The car was getting farther and farther from the villa, and I could not help looking over my shoulder, my eyes welling with tears. I said goodbye to the kids. Why did I still feel sad? I knew. It was because I didn't say goodbye to Blake. Eva let out a sad sob. "It's still early. What's the rush? After the car drove out of the lakeside villa, I heard Blake's voice from the driver's seat. I was stunned when I heard his voice. Soon after, he pulled over. "Move to the front." Blake gently reminded me. I came back to my senses. It wasn't Dowen. It was Blake. Why was Blake here? I thought that Dowen was driving. "W
Catherine's POV After I boarded the plane, I texted Blake. Soon, he replied to me: "Take care of yourself. Call me if you need anything." I kept staring at the message and it made me happy. "Your hearts are together," Eva said to me. The plane took off and hurtled into the night sky. I looked out the window, feeling a little sad. It was the first time we had been so far apart since we had met. After flying for more than ten hours, I finally arrived at the city where my father was. I got Halsey's address from Blake. After I left the airport, I checked in at a hotel. The weather was gloomy the next morning, which made me gloomy as well. After more than an hour's ride, I finally arrived at a villa in a wealthy neighborhood. I looked around for a long time before I finally found the door to the Fox's villa. For some reason, I was a bit scared. I reached out and rang the doorbell. A servant opened the door.
