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.
Catherine's POV I looked at Halsey in disbelief, his face full of pain. Abigail said in a low voice, "Catherine, now you know why your father did this. He loves you as much as any father in the world." "Is this true?" I couldn't believe it. Why? Why did this happen to me? Halsey nodded in pain. "Yes. That's why I lost you. Cathy, I have been suffering from it. I've been looking for you for years." "Why? How could she be so cruel? I am your daughter!" I roared. Why? Why didn't my family like me? They even wanted to sacrifice me for my brother. Halsey closed his eyes in pain and said, "You are my daughter. You and your brother are equally important to me. Your brother's illness was destined, and I could only accept it. However, I couldn't watch you die as well!" I lost my strength and slumped on the sofa. My tears ran down my cheeks uncontrollably. Abigail comforted me, "Catherine, don't be sad. Now that you are back, you should spend som
Catherine's POV "Aren't you on a business trip? When are you going to do your work?" "I whispered. "You are my work. Didn't I just work hard enough?" Blake said teasingly. I raised my head to look at him. "Aren't you afraid that Patricia will find out?" "I am, of course, but I kept it under wraps. I don't think she'll know," Blake said complacently. "So, are we sneaking out now?" I smiled. Blake turned over and pressed me down. "Yes. So, let's not waste time!" He kissed me so passionately that I could hardly breathe. I kept calling out his name. By the time I woke up, Blake had already come out of the bathroom, and then he got dressed. "Get up. Let's go out!" "Where to?" I didn't want to get up yet. "Anywhere, as long as you are with me!" Blake looked at me. "Alright." I got up unwillingly and ran into the bathroom carrying my clothes. We walked on the street hand in hand, and I felt relaxed. Suddenly, I spotted
Catherine's POV Just as I reached the door, it opened. Blake looked at me. I threw myself into his arms. All I wanted was to hold him now. We held each other quietly for a long time. "What did your mother say to you?" I said while rubbing my eyes. Blake said in a low voice, "I think they told us the same thing. They are getting divorced for us." "What do you think of it?" I trembled. It was cruel for two people who loved each other to be separated. Blake said coldly, "I don't think they should be together in the first place. My mother betrayed my father." I whispered, "Sorry. My father also did the wrong thing." Blake said angrily, "Why are you apologizing to me? It's not your fault. They were being selfish." I knew Blake couldn't get over the past, and I didn't intend to make him. I sat on the sofa, looked up at Blake, and said, "I don't want them to divorce because of us. What about you? "We can't do this. They sho
Catherine's POV After returning to the hotel, I took a shower and had a video call with Noah and Hedwig. "Mommy, are you having fun there? Did you miss me?" Hedwig cried. I looked at the tears in Hedwig's eyes and felt bad. "Hedwig, don't cry. I miss you, too!" I comforted Hedwig. "Mommy, when will you come back? I miss you so much!" said Hedwig. "Hedwig, I will be back soon. Hang out with Patricia for a few days, OK?" I said. "Patricia said that daddy went on a business trip, too. I miss him so much. Mommy, do you miss him?" Hedwig asked. I turned around and saw Blake leaning against the room door. Then I laughed and said, "No! I don't." Blake's face darkened at once. "Mommy, you are so cruel. I called daddy, and he said he missed you. But you don't miss him! He will be so sad." Hedwig looked unhappy. I laughed out loud. I didn't dare to tell Hedwig the truth. Blake was standing behind me. Why would I need to miss him?
Catherine's POV "Blake, we were destined to be together shortly after we were born, right?" I whispered to him. "You're right." Blake lifted my chin and kissed me. "Alright, let's eat. I never get enough time with you. Time is only meaningful when I'm with you!" I smiled. I could never hear enough of Blake's words. His words were warmer than the sunlight. After dinner, Blake suddenly pulled me into his arms. He pointed in a direction and said, "I had a surprise for you. Do you want to see it?" "What is it?" I was curious. "Close your eyes!" Blake checked the time, and then he stretched out his hands and covered my eyes. I closed my eyes. When I heard Blake's low voice, I opened my eyes. Then I saw fireworks set off from the top of a building not far from us. I watched the fireworks that bloomed in the sky. They were screaming beautiful. I excitedly looked at the man behind me and asked, "You did it for me?"
