Blake's POV
I came to the Chavez Group early this morning to take care of some company affairs. Unexpectedly, I saw Gina in the hall. To be honest, I hadn't seen her for a while. At the sight of her, I thought of how she lied to me. I coldly rejected her request and let her go to Henry. Henry came to the office to ask for my opinion. I snorted and said, "She has the nerve to lie to me. And she fooled me for years. I will not let her off the hook easily. I will make her pay heavily." "Gina is now a star. The worst punishment for her, of course, would be a decline in fame. We can cut her off. Let her be sneered and laughed at," Henry said. I nodded. "I'll leave it to you. I have no time for such trifles. Also, make sure you clear the place tonight. I don't want anyone to see me and the children in the mall." Henry nodded and promised, "King Blake, I've made the arrangements as you asked. I'm sure no one will disturb you." "OK. Go aheaBlake's POV After my two friends left, I could finally work in peace until 4 pm in the afternoon. Noah and Hedwig had left the werewolf school. I asked Dowen to send them to the mall. Noah and Hedwig got out of the car and found no one in the brightly lit hall. Their black eyes widened in disbelief. "Noah, why is no one here? Did daddy bring us to the wrong place?" Hedwig instantly felt a sense of loss. Noah looked around with his big eyes and said, "No. See? The shops above are open." While Noah and Hedwig were talking to themselves, I had already bent down and followed them out of the car. "Daddy, where are the people here? How come there's nobody here? Have they been taken away by monsters? I'm so scared!" Hedwig sat firmly on my strong arm while putting her two short arms around my neck. She looked around in a panic. Hedwig's naive and frank words immediately amused my subordinates. I comforted her, "They haven't b
Blake's POV In a spacious corridor on the fifth floor, Noah and Hedwig suddenly stopped. Two pairs of big eyes stared at the row of jewelry stores ahead. Hedwig looked at the shiny jewelry. Her two big eyes lit up. "They are so beautiful!" Though Hedwig was still at such a young age, she favored such shiny things already. "Mommy likes them as well!" Noah also leaned against the glass and looked at the jewelry. Henry laughed out loud at once. "King Blake, it seems that children also like these shiny things." "You're right. It's a shame that Hedwig is too young. Otherwise, I would have bought something for her," I said emotionally. "Daddy, daddy, come here!" Hedwig looked back and saw me standing behind her. She immediately waved her little hands at me. I immediately stepped forward and stood beside Hedwig, bending down and admiring the jewelry together with her. "Daddy, will you buy me anything I want?" Hedwig suddenly raised her fa
Catherine's POV Blake took Noah and Hedwig shopping at the mall today. I got to work quietly for a while after coming back. It was getting late. I was drawing in my room when I heard Hedwig's happy voice from afar. I guessed that she was so happy because she had bought a lot of toys. I put down my pen and quickly walked to the door. When I opened the door, a soft, delicate body pounced on me. She hugged my leg. "Mommy, come downstairs now..." One of my fingers was held tightly by her small hand. She pulled me downstairs with force. I smiled as I saw how excited Hedwig was. As long as the kids were having fun, I wouldn't say no to them hanging out with that man anymore. In the parlor, high on the roof, a huge chandelier was lit up, and the lights were bright. I saw the man sitting on the sofa. He turned his head and looked at me. Our eyes met for only a second before I quickly lowered my head and looked at the stairs.
Catherine's POV "Hedwig, Noah, come and wash your hands," I said to them. The two kids immediately sprang over. As I washed their hands, Noah looked up and asked, "Mommy, are you still angry?" "No, I'm okay now!" I took a towel and wiped their hands clean. "I'm glad you always think of me. I was a little harsh to you just now because I hope you'll bear in mind never take anything that does not belong to you. No matter how valuable it is, no matter how much you like it, you just can't take it. Do you understand?" Noah immediately nodded. "I got it!" Hedwig also nodded, but maybe she still didn't understand what I meant. After helping Noah and Hedwig wash up, I held their hands and led them to the table. Blake fixed his eyes on me. I couldn't tell what exactly he was thinking, but I bet he had some bad ideas. I glanced at him snappily. I caught a glimpse of his smiling lips. My heart beat wildly. Why did I have such a we
Catherine's POV It was soon noon. In a high-end restaurant in downtown Sayreville, all the tables were reserved by the Chavez Group. King Blake would treat us there. Melinda led everyone in our department. We stood at the entrance of the restaurant, waiting for Blake. These female werewolves were usually cool when they were working, but now, they were so excited that their hands and feet were trembling. A few young and beautiful girls had put on delicate makeup, hoping that Blake might fall in love with them at first sight. Around 12 pm, Blake's fleet stopped outside the restaurant, and he came with several subordinates. I could recognize his Beta, Henry. And it seemed that his Gamma also came. I lowered my head and stood behind the crowd. I could feel that when Blake passed by, his gaze rested on me for a few seconds. "King Blake, we are really honored to be the first to enjoy the company's new benefit." Melinda walke
Catherine's POV I heard the colleagues around me exclaiming. I looked over unhappily. Why was Gina here at this time? Gina walked over to me. I glanced at her and said, "What do you want?" Gina, who had been cocky, immediately changed her tone. She became a little gentler. "Cathy, get in the car. I have something to tell you." "I still have work to do. I don't have time." In fact, I was lying. I just didn't want to talk to her. Everyone there was staring at me. In their opinion, I was putting on airs while Gina came to me personally, which was very baffling. Of course, those people only thought so because they didn't know about the history between Gina and me. "Catherine, are you sure you want to talk about things between us here?" Gina threatened. When I heard this, I couldn't help but freeze. Gina and I had nothing to talk about at first. But ever since I brought up the matter with Blake five years ago, Gina seemed t
Catherine's POV "Dowen, what happened to Hedwig? Do you know something?" I asked curiously. Dowen replied honestly, "The Princess has been like this after King Blake sent her back this afternoon. I don't know what happened either. Maybe she was frightened." My brows couldn't help but twitch. It was the same time that Eva told me that something was wrong with Hedwig. But what exactly happened to Hedwig? I looked up and saw that Dowen was still looking at me, so I smiled and said, "OK. I'll take her upstairs to play with Noah." Dowen nodded and went off to do something else. I squatted down and smiled at Hedwig. "Hedwig, come here. Let's go upstairs to find Noah and let him play with you, OK?" "Mommy, I don't want to play... I want to wait for daddy to come back." Hedwig said in a low voice, as if she was afraid. "Your daddy won't be back so soon. Mommy will play with you for a while, OK?" I still smiled gently. Hedwig im
Catherine's POV After I chatted with Eva for a while, I felt better. I couldn't just let it get to me. Since Blake wouldn't tell me the truth, I would find out about it on my own. At dinner, Noah and I were the only ones at the table. I questioned Noah sternly. I frowned more deeply when I saw Noah sighing. Usually, Noah could eat a plate of food. Yet today, he only had a little. "Noah, what's wrong?" I reached out and stroked his head. Noah glanced at me and sighed again. "Where did daddy take Hedwig? Were they out to eat something good?" I realized that Noah wanted to go out to eat with Blake. "Noah, if you tell me what happened to Hedwig at school today, I'll tell you what daddy took her to eat." I learned to be smart enough to know that I should exchange conditions with Noah. Noah had been dejected just now. When he heard my words, he immediately sat up straight and shook his head firmly. "Mommy, stop asking me. I really d
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
