Catherine's POV
As soon as I returned to Mountaintop Villa, I heard Patricia muttering while holding Noah and Hedwig's school bags, "Nick moved out. I am really worried that he can't take care of himself." I breathed a sigh of relief when I heard that. Nick had finally left. It was such a relief for me. "Patricia, don't worry about him. He will take care of himself." I comforted her in a low voice. "You're right. Nick said that he would stay here for a few more days. I'll see what he needs and prepare them for him," Patricia said. Yet I smiled and said nothing more. "Patricia, my classmate asked me today why my daddy's surname was Chavez, while my surname is Wyatt. Why is that?" Hedwig suddenly asked after handing the schoolbag to Patricia. Patricia's face froze. She looked up at me. "The children still have your surname. This is a bit inappropriate. How about changing their surnames?" I had never thought about this before. I was stuCatherine's POV It was a rare leisure time on the weekend. Blake had promised Hedwig that he would spare time to bring her out for some fun. Therefore, early in the morning, he went to the company to deal with his work first. The two children and I were waiting at home for him. At noon, Blake came back. This time, he took a large MPV and was followed by several black SUVs, which were filled with guards of the Chavez Pack. Recently, Blake had been stricter with his travel safety. "Daddy..." Seeing Blake walk out of the car, Hedwig rushed over happily. Noah and she were no longer in the mood to play with the toys. They sat in the living room, waiting patiently for their daddy to take them out. Blake bent over and picked up Hedwig. Then he smiled at me. "Have you packed everything? Let's go now." "Yes, we are ready," I replied softly. Noah and Hedwig brought a large bag of toys because Blake said that we would spend the night in
Catherine's POV The next morning, I felt something rubbing against my face. I opened my eyes and saw Hedwig's little head. I quickly sat up. I smiled, "Hedwig, get up!" Hedwig stretched. "Mommy, where are we? I don't want to study. Is it okay?" I laughed. Was the little guy dreaming? She was thinking about studying in her dream. "Today is a holiday. We are at the resort. You don't have to study!" I said with a smile. "Really?" Hedwig sat up immediately. She observed the surroundings and then smiled. "I don't need to study. I'm so happy!" Noah woke up and covered his ears, murmuring, "So noisy!" "Noah, don't sleep anymore. Get up!" I said gently. Noah nodded. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. Then, he took a small sweater beside him and began to put it on. I put on a thick down jacket for Hedwig. We were going out later and she had to stay warm. When I led the two little guys downstairs, Blake was standing at
Third People's POV In the dining room, Nick leaned lazily against the back of the chair. Sitting opposite him was Catherine's adoptive father, Troy. With a new career, Troy cheered up, and his expression was no longer anxious. He respectfully handed a glass of red wine to Nick. "Is Catherine really Halsey's daughter? Are you sure?" Nick asked coldly. Troy quickly nodded and replied in an extremely certain tone, "Yes, Halsey came to my place and admitted that Catherine was his daughter who he lost twenty years ago. At that time, I was mad and told him to leave." To confirm whether it was the truth, Nick took out his phone and found a photo of Halsey. "This man?" As Troy saw the photo, he immediately nodded. "Yes, it's him. I didn't expect that Catherine's biological father was Halsey. If I had known earlier, I would have asked him to compensate me." "You can ask him for compensation now. Halsey is very rich!" Nick smiled maliciously.
Catherine's POV After the weekend, I decided to return to work. Blake cared deeply about me and didn't want me to go back to work. But I slept with him for a night and satisfied him. So, he finally agreed. He knew me well. I couldn't just sit around and do nothing. I would go crazy if I stayed at home. The next morning, at the breakfast table, Patricia was telling the two kids to hurry up. I put on my business outfit. When Patricia saw me, she immediately asked, "Cathy, are you going out, too?" Blake answered for me, "She is going back to work today!" "So soon? Is your wound healed?" Patricia was more concerned about me. She felt that I had to rest at home for at least half a year before going back to work. But I only rested for a month and was in a hurry to resume my work. Patricia frowned and looked at me disapprovingly. "I'm fine. The doctor said that with Blake by my side, I would recover quickly. I can go back to work," I repli
Catherine's POV Looking at Blake, I felt lucky to be loved by him so deeply, but at the thought of his strength and energy that exceeded those of ordinary werewolves last night, I couldn't help thinking shyly, 'His love is also a little overwhelming.' My office was next to Melinda's. It was spacious, bright, and well-decorated. Blake accompanied me into the office and gently straightened the collar of my shirt. He whispered, "Remember, don't draw any drafts recently. Just stay and rest here. I won't blame you whether you are watching movies or sleeping. In short, don't get tired, or I will be distressed. Understand?" I didn't expect Blake, such an overbearing and cold man, would be so considerate. I smiled, "Alright. I love to slack off the most." Blake pinched my chin. Then, he lowered his head and kissed me on my pink lips. "I'm leaving. I want you to think of me often." I should be used to it. When he sweet-talked me, he was completely differen
Catherine's POV At half past five, I took Blake's car back to the Mountaintop Villa. I came back alone since Blake had to work overtime tonight. Once back, I saw Nick sitting leisurely on the sofa in the living room. Nick sat up straight when he saw me coming in. I was wearing a beige suit today and a long coat of the same color, my long hair hanging down smoothly. "Catherine, you are back." Nick looked at me with a strange gaze. For some reason, his eyes posed a certain threat to me, and I could not help but take a step back to keep a distance from him. "Yes." Nick and I didn't have much to talk about. I just wanted to leave quickly. "Did you go to work today? I heard from Patricia that you are a designer. You must be very talented," Nick said with a smile. "I'm flattered. I'm just an average designer and not talented." My answer was very perfunctory. "Do you design men's clothing?" Nick asked. "No, I ma
Blake's POV During this period, I reorganized the company's personnel. Although I couldn't kick out all the traitors, at least, I wouldn't let Richard have the opportunity to plant new people into the company. Investigating the pack and the company was a very troublesome matter. At present, I had only made a small victory. The future confrontation would be even crueler. I was prepared. Next, I would talk to Richard in person. Dowen had already arranged my schedule for me. I would take the plane tomorrow afternoon to meet Richard. It was dark. In the blink of an eye, it was already past eleven at night. Snow covered the entire city. On the way home, I looked through the car window quietly. At this time, most people must have fallen asleep. I remembered that not long ago, my attitude towards marriage was still very negative. I always felt that it would waste my precious time, and it would wear down my willpower to work hard. Yet I had
Blake's POV I had breakfast and was ready to go to the company to deal with some work. Then I went directly to the airport from the company. "Daddy, are you going out without Mommy?" Hedwig suddenly ran over and asked me. I nodded. "Yes, I have a very important matter to deal with. I'm not going on a trip, so I won't bring Catherine. She'll stay with you guys at home." Catherine came over and held Hedwig's hand. Catherine smiled gently and said, "Hedwig, when Blake is finished with his business, he will return." "Alright. Daddy, I will miss you. You must miss me." Hedwig blinked her big eyes. I squatted and stroked her long hair. I promised softly, "Okay, I will miss you and Noah. You have to listen to Catherine at home. When I come back, I will bring you gifts." "Okay," Hedwig laughed happily. I turned and left. I didn't want to leave when I sat in the car and looked at Catherine and the two children standing at the door.
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
