Chapter Sixty-One

The next morning, Cat was up early, determined not to wallow in sadness. She had calls to make and plans to finalise. The previous night, as she struggled to sleep, she had made a decision.If Eric wanted back in her life upon learning the truth, he would face a daunting challenge - not just a steep hill, but a mountain to climb. He had been wrong and had hastily jumped to conclusions, without allowing anyone the time to explain.After taking another shower to relax, Cat felt refreshed and more alive. She picked up her phone and made her way downstairs. Outside on the terrace, Cat found Rebecca enjoying breakfast by the pool. The day was clear and blue, a perfect morning. Grateful that she had chosen to wear loose linen pants and a singlet top, Cat moved to join Rebecca.As soon as Cat stepped out of the back door, Rebecca got up and greeted her with a hug. “I know this might not be the best time to ask, but how are you feeling?” Rebecca questioned, leading Cat to sit down with her.Af

Chapter Sixty-Two

After breakfast, Cat told Rebecca she would need to make some phone calls, which Rebecca said. “I hope one is to his mother. Allison is a lovely lady and I cannot see her at all happy with this turn of events.”Cat was uncertain about how Allison would react if she had heard from Eric about his accusations against her.Yesterday, Cat couldn’t bring herself to address the issue, but now, after clearing her head, she felt ready to talk about it. She just hoped she could maintain her composure and avoid breaking down.While Cat would have preferred to speak to Dawn first, when she glanced at the time and realised she needed to inform Allison that she wouldn’t be coming in today... or ever.Dialling Allison’s number, Cat was glad Allison answered after only three rings. From her first words, Cat could tell that Eric had said nothing yet. “Katherine, are you still not well?” came her concerned mother-in-law’s voice over the phone.Cat didn’t respond immediately, taking a few deep breaths wh

Chapter Sixty-Three

The next call Cat made was to Dawn. Cat’s foster mother was concerned about her once she had heard what had happened yesterday.But Dawn was also staying open to the fact that they could get back together and work things out. “It could just be one big misunderstanding. Marriage is about work, Cat. You don’t just get that piece of paper and stop trying to work at your marriage. There are going to be fights and misunderstandings. You just need to come to an arrangement about how you will manage it.”“But mum, I have never heard you and dad fight ever.” This comment from Cat made Dawn laugh.“Not that you witnessed no. We did… do fight even now, but never in front of you. It’s almost impossible for two people to live together and not fight sometimes. When we first married, boy, did we disagree about almost everything? But over time, we got to understand each other better and accept each other’s differences. When that happened, the disagreements became less and less. Our rule was we never

Chapter Sixty-Four

Cat was sitting in the library, on a loveseat, near the bay window with her feet up reading, later that day when Alex walked in, followed by two men in dark suits.She didn’t need to be told who they were; Cat thought all bodyguards must dress the same and have similar postures. Their presence made it clear to Cat that Alex had arranged for her to have protection.Cat sighed, taking her feet off the seat and putting the book she was reading on the side table next to her cup of tea. Which Katie had brought into her a few minutes ago. Before turning her attention to Alex.He did not waste anytime explaining what she already guessed. “Cat, with the threat of Claudia still a problem, I want you to have your own security. Even after Claudia has been caught, you will still need protection. Once it becomes known that you are my daughter, there will be a higher risk to your safety.”Cat opened her mouth to protest, but Alex quickly interrupted her, saying, “If you can’t think of your own safet

Chapter Sixty-Five

By the next week, Cat had settled in to Alex and Rebecca’s house over the last few days. She had also started working at Alex’s company as a junior executive. It was fun learning new things and helped to keep her mind off her personal problems.Tonight was the Charity ball Allison was hosting in the name of Logan holdings. Rebecca had taken Cat shopping at a very expensive designer pregnancy store in Sydney. She had let Rebecca help her choose her dress.Cat stood in front of her mirror in her bedroom. Turning this way and that. Surprised at how great the red scarlet dress looked on her. Cat hadn’t gained much weight other than her belly. She knew it was partly because she was having twins and a lot of energy went into feeding them.Cat was glad of that because the dress had little room left, as it hugged her body to her hips before flaring out to the floor. The strapless dress had a slight train accentuating her figure. Her red hair was styled in soft curls, framing her face and neck

Chapter Sixty-Six

Eric really regret coming to the charity event tonight, just like he knew he would. But he felt like he didn’t have much of a choice. The event was held in his company’s name, and his mother had made it clear that she would disown him if he didn’t show up. Reluctantly, he found himself standing beside his mother, forced to greet the arriving guests.As he stood there, Eric couldn’t help but feel relieved they had only allocated a small amount of time for this ordeal. If people ran late, well, that was their problem. All he really wanted was a stiff drink to help him forget about the insufferable week he had endured.It had all started with his mother giving him the cold shoulder after he assured her that Cat, his wife and unborn children had the necessary protection.After Eric had let his mum know, he had indeed sent Peters; Cat’s trusted bodyguard, first to find out her location and then to protect her.However, Eric’s anger only grew when Peters reported back that Cat was staying at

Chapter Sixty-Seven

Cat gave Allison a smile before putting her hand back in the crook of Evan’s arm as they made their way into the ballroom, following Alex and Rebecca.Tonight’s event wasn’t a sit down meal because Allison found them to…stuffy. It was hard if you were sitting with someone you didn’t like to get away from them, Allison had told her once. At least in an informal setting it was easier for people to move around, mingle and have fun and you couldn’t do that while having a formal sit down meal.There were tables and chairs placed around the sides of the room. On each table sat a beautiful flower arrangement. The chairs draped in white fabric matching the white tablecloths.The left side of the ballroom held two sets of french doors opening onto a wide veranda. Giving people a place they could go outside if they needed fresh air and just around the corner was a smoker’s area.In the middle of the ballroom, there was a circular dais where Allison had a band setup. Currently, they were playing

Chapter Sixty-Eight

“I heard from Jo you are working for Alex now. Are you enjoying it?” Allison asked, changing the subject.“It’s completely different from what I was doing while working with you. I’m loving it though, learning new things. I feel a little guilty that I’ll only be there a few months before I go on maternity leave.” She was working as a junior executive in Alex’s company. No one there knew she was his daughter. Yet.“I’m sure when everything comes out, people will understand. Are you going back to work after the babies are born?”“I’m not sure. I want to be at home for my children, but it’s also nice connecting with people outside the home.”Alex added. “She can figure it out later. The decision is hers.”Allison nodded, then said dramatically, for effect. “Now, I really must go and mingle with the other guests” She was really in her element. “I’ll be around later on tonight.” Allison gave Cat another hug and kiss on the cheek before moving off to do her hostess duties.A waiter came roun

Chapter Sixty-Nine

After a few moments of tense silence, Eric placed a hand on the wall by her head. “What the hell is going on, Cat? Are you with Alex or this new guy you arrived with?”Cat didn’t want to make Eric jealous, but his accusation angered her, nonetheless. After all, he had been her first lover. What did he expect? That now she had experienced it, she couldn’t live without sex? The truth was, the only person she was struggling to be without was him. Being in such close proximity to him, with his scent enveloping her, was beginning to wear on her nerves.“What’s it to you? You walked away from me, remember?” Cat said, incensed by his dog in the manor attitude. How dare he question her?Eric wasn’t happy with her not answering his question. His face darkened. “Don’t push me Cat.” Putting his other hand flat on the wall on the other side of her head. Caging her in.She wasn’t scared of him. Eric would never hurt her physically. “You want a divorce, remember? What I do with my life is my own bus

Chapter Seventy

As Cat came barreling out of the cleaners closet shocked at her own behaviour, she ran into a hard chest. She looked up into Evan’s intense eyes. He had grabbed her arms to steady her and looking over her shoulder to the open door behind her.Cat could only guess that he was witnessing Eric in the same state of dishevelment as her, because she didn’t turn around to check. It made her flash red, growing hot all over.She reached back behind her. She kept her eyes fixed on Evan’s face. Her hand fumbled a few times before finally finding the handle of the door, and she pulled it closed. The fact that Evan was witnessing this was bad enough, and she didn’t want anyone else to see. With a smirk on his face, he asked, “Checking out operations, Cat?”She hit him on the arm. “This isn’t funny. How long have you been here?”“What? Waiting outside the door while you do the nasty with a room full of people just down there.” Evan pointed to the open hallway leading to the ballroom. He looked like
