Third person's POV
They knew who King Blake's girlfriend was. Rumors had it that the woman was a designer in the company. "Please, this is really important!" Gina immediately put on an act. A receptionist helped her call Henry. A few minutes later, one of the receptionists stood up with an access card. "Please go to the CEO's office, King Blake is waiting for you." Gina's eyes lit up. She knew it. Blake didn't want to be some idiot who didn't know anything. Even Gina's footsteps became lighter. She entered the elevator. The elevator was going up. Gina was quite familiar with the building. She arrived at the CEO's office without difficulty. She raised her hand and knocked on the door. After getting permission, she pushed the door open and entered. Behind the grand office desk, Blake sat on a black chair with his eyes slightly cold. Gina was slightly stunned when she looked at Blake. Every time she came toCatherine's POV I suddenly received a call from Blake when I was in the office. I was a little puzzled why he called me at this time. I picked up the phone. A deep and pleasant voice sounded from the other end of the line. "When you were eating with Hedwig in the restaurant yesterday, Gina's people took some photos of you. She just came to me with them to tell on you," said Blake with a chuckle. "What? She hired someone to follow me?" I was shocked. Exactly how much did Gina hate me? She even hired someone to follow me when I was out! It was outrageous. Blake said calmly, "Be more careful when you go out from now on. Or there might be another scandal before you know it." "I see. Did you tell her about Hedwig?" I asked. "Yes. I told her that the girl was my daughter. She seemed devastated." said Blake lazily. I smiled bitterly, "I guess the public will know about the kids sooner or later." "Don't worry. Our kids
Catherine's POV "Yes. I hate him so much that I want to kill him. But I think I hate myself even more. I probably wouldn't have been able to run away that night, no matter who it was." I felt a bit stiff and cold, and I was trembling. It took great courage to open up old wounds again. I chose to forget everything before. I chose to start my life after I had Noah and Hedwig. I felt happiness only after having them in my life. "Ms. Wyatt, relax. Can you tell me what your nightmares were like?" Penelope asked me as softly as she could. I nodded. "Sometimes I felt torn apart by an animal, and sometimes I felt trapped in a dark room." "Be more specific. Have you ever had any sex dreams?" "Yes ... yes, once." "Can you see the man's face in the dream?" "It was very blurry. I couldn't." Penelope recorded my symptoms. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly said, "Now that you know it was King Blake, do you hate
Catherine's POV "You can't help me. I'm in charge of the seat arrangement for this launch. You don't know which of our guests is more important," I said with a little pride. "I don't care about others. You just need to reserve six seats in the front row," said Blake. "Why? I have already made the arrangement," I muttered. Blake was not here to help me. He was here to cause me trouble. "Because those sitting in these seats will be more powerful than everyone else." After that, Blake began to name them, "I have already invited the Benjamin brothers, Howard, and Eda. And there's me and the kids." I was stunned. I looked at him in disbelief. "Why will you be there?" "You'll be the host. Shouldn't I show up, given that I'm your boyfriend? Besides, I'm sure the kids would love to see the results of their mommy's busy days at work." Blake's reasons were flawless. I quickly explained, "I'm not saying that I don't want you to be there. I jus
Catherine's POV Melinda asked tentatively, "Cathy, do you have feelings for Harley?" I was stunned when I heard what she said. "No. What makes you ask?" "I just felt that you cared about him a lot. Cathy, if King Blake finds out, will he be jealous?" Melinda immediately said. I replied seriously, "I swear. I don't have feelings for Harley. I just want to help him as a friend. Of course, if Blake knew about this, he would be angry. That's why I want to ask you to help me invite Harley." "Well, I can make a call," Melinda said. In the afternoon, Melinda knocked on the door and came in. She shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly, "I have already reached out to Harley's agent and told him you wanted to invite Harley. But Harley refused." "I see." I was stunned at the response, but it kind of made sense. I knew Harley. He wasn't a man who would disregard his principles in exchange for popularity. "Are you going to call him you
Catherine's POV "Why don't you just tell me what it is?" said Leo. Then I told him my request, "I want you to sing a song with Gina. Is that OK?" "Gina? Why do you want me to sing with her? Don't tell me you want to fix us up. That's a lot of contempt for me. Don't you know me? How can I possibly have feelings for a woman like her?" Leo said disapprovingly. "No, don't get me wrong. That's not what I meant. Of course, Gina wasn't a good match for you. The thing is, I made a deal with her, and this was her request. Otherwise, I wouldn't have troubled you with this." I was very anxious. It was about the secret of my birth, and I needed Leo's help. "If you tell me what your deal is, maybe I'll think about it!!" Leo said with a bit of complacency. "No. It's my secret." I didn't want him to know. "I won't help you unless you tell me." Leo was also very stubborn. I had to give in. "Really? Will you help me if I tell you?" "Of
Catherine's POV I took a shower, lay down beside Hedwig, closed my eyes, and went to sleep. Actually, I hadn't had those nightmares since I moved into Blake's villa. I didn't know why. But I did know that I was getting better and better. Time flew by, and another day passed. Today was Leo's birthday. It would be rude to show up empty-handed on someone's birthday. So, I decided to let the two kids prepare their gifts for Leo. We were sitting at the dinner table, having breakfast. "Mommy, can you give me some money? I will buy a bunch of flowers for Leo." Hedwig came up with a good idea. Noah mocked, "Leo is a man. Men do not like flowers. Mommy, I want to give Leo a super cool lighter. Is that OK?" "Smoking is harmful to our health. The teacher just taught us yesterday. Noah, do you want Leo to smoke every day?" Hedwig immediately retorted. Blake hurriedly said, "Noah, Hedwig, Leo is rich. He can buy anyth
Catherine's POV "It's my best work. This is Leo performing on stage. Many people are listening to you singing. You sing so well!" Finally, this Leo was a star. "Really? You haven't heard me sing yet, have you? My singing is awesome. I'll show you next time!" Leo smirked. "This is Leo climbing the mountain and is accidentally blown away by the wind. "This is Leo eating. Well... I don't know how to draw steak, so I drew some circles. Leo, what do you like to eat?" Leo looked desperate. When Hedwig finished introducing her drawings, Leo turned to Noah and said, "Noah, you didn't prepare so many surprises for me, did you?" Noah said proudly, "I'm not like stupid Hedwig! Leo, this is the car model I made for you. These two doors can even be opened!" "Thank you, Noah. I like it very much." Leo was moved. "Leo, what about mine?" Hedwig instantly raised her face, her crystal-like eyes filled with anticipation. "I like b
Catherine's POV I quickly hugged Hedwig and kissed her cheek. "Don't you have daddy with you?" "Daddy is not enough. I want both of you!" Hedwig said greedily. Noah snorted, "Stupid Hedwig. When can you learn to be independent? I've seen you eat every day, but I haven't seen you grow up." I couldn't help but chuckle as I saw Noah tease Hedwig again. Hedwig glared at Noah. "I miss mommy. What's wrong with that?" I turned to Noah and said, "Enough. Stop talking to Hedwig like that. Hedwig was sick the other day, and I wasn't there for her. I'm so sorry." Noah instantly grinned. "Mommy, you have no idea. When the doctor was treating Hedwig, she kept screaming, 'Daddy, it hurts!' She screamed so loudly!" I looked at Hedwig's face, which was still a bit pale, and my heart ached. "Mommy!" Hedwig immediately leaned into my arms. "Mommy, when you are done with your work, you have to accompany me more, OK?" I nodded. "Do
Eda's POVI stared at the beautifully designed wedding invitation on my desk. The minimalist yet elegant style exuded a casual and refined vibe.The off-white card was adorned with a light blue ribbon and featured the wedding details of Blake and Catherine in an exquisite font.Blake and Catherine were getting engaged. From the bottom of my heart, I was genuinely happy for them and sent my heartfelt congratulations.They had the courage to step into marriage and continue their sweet love story, which was truly enviable. But at least, I couldn't do it myself.I reached out and touched my still-flat stomach. Besides the occasional waves of nausea, I hardly felt any different. My body seemed to be functioning as usual."Ugh, this is so annoying!" I propped my head up with my hand and fiddled with my bangs, too agitated to focus on work.I felt like I was going through the worst phase of my life."Turns out, enjoying happiness come
Third Person's POVThe Royal Packhouse was filled with a festive atmosphere.Patricia woken up early and went with Dowen to select a series of holiday-themed furniture and decorations.Meanwhile, Catherine was still playing with the two little ones in the spacious manor. Today, Catherine decided to take the kids to the lush, green corridor to enjoy the scenery.Both children were dressed in thick down jackets—Noah in blue and Hedwig in bright pink.Despite being fraternal twins, their height difference was already noticeable. Noah was clearly half a head taller than Hedwig, making them look like true siblings.Hedwig was a true little foodie. Ever since she moved into Blake's home, she had been well-nourished and had become chubby, like a round little ball.She wore a small knitted hat that only revealed her delicate little face, looking like a cute little elf, extremely adorable.Due to the recent poor weather conditions
Third Person's POVBlake turned around sharply, his eyes pausing for a moment as he saw the woman behind him.The next second, he reached out and grabbed her wrist, saying, "Don't come out here."Catherine felt the warmth of Blake's palm and her heart softened.Sure enough, Blake quickly dropped the cigarette in his hand onto the damp floor beside him, where it was extinguished.Catherine was almost forcibly pulled back inside by Blake. The next second, he closed the door, shutting out the cold.His palm was warm, but he radiated a chill all over.Catherine's face was pale from the cold, but she still whispered, "Are you cold? You should take a shower quickly.""Hmm, let's go. Are the kids asleep?" Blake nodded and asked gently."Yeah, they're getting harder to put to bed these days," Catherine said with a sweet smile.Blake gently touched her long hair and said softly, "You've really been working hard. The older
Third Person's POV"Damn it!" Leo cursed under his breath as he stormed back home, slamming the door shut behind him.He couldn't believe his first marriage proposal had been rejected. It was a real blow to his ego.But on second thought, Sunny wasn't the kind of person who acted on impulse like him. She was calm and thoughtful.Maybe that was exactly what he needed.If he was impulsive and she was level-headed, wouldn't they be the perfect match? Didn't a lasting marriage need a combination of such contrasting personalities?Thinking this way, Leo's lips curled up slightly. Maybe things weren't that bad after all.Sunny clutched her handbag tightly, her head feeling heavy and dizzy. The events of the past few days kept swirling in her mind, driving her crazy.If it weren't for the Olivia thing, she would have said yes without a second thought.Marrying Leo had been her teenage dream. Now that it was within reach, she ju
Third Person's POV"Say that again!" Leo's tone turned dangerous all of a sudden. How dare she say something like that?Sunny sighed softly. "Leo, this constant on-and-off thing between us seems pointless. Every time we're together, I find myself falling for you even more. And every time we part, the hurt gets worse. Unless... unless you marry me and I become your wife, and we have a reason that can't be undone, I can't stay with you peacefully."It took all of Sunny's courage to say that. She thought Leo would laugh at her for even suggesting marriage. How greedy of her to ask for that!"Alright, I'll marry you!" After thinking for just three seconds, Leo replied."Wha..." Sunny couldn't believe her ears. Did she just hear Leo agree to marry her? Was she dreaming?Suddenly, Leo grabbed her wrist and gently pulled her closer. "I said, I'll marry you. And we can get engaged right away!""Are... are you serious? Actually, I was just jok
Third Person's POV"Her fear of having kids and marriage comes from her mom. Asking her mom to talk to her would definitely backfire," Benjamin said with a bitter smile.Cedrick instantly thought of that stubborn and snobbish lady. Yeah, her personality could definitely leave a psychological shadow on a kid.The office fell into silence. Clearly, these two guys who were always decisive in business were at a loss when it came to women's stuff. They seemed clumsy and lost their usual sharpness."Has Eda decided she doesn't want the baby?" Cedrick asked after a while.A heavy look crossed Benjamin's face. "Yeah, she asked me if she could not have it, and I just blurted out 'yes' without thinking."Cedrick was speechless.It seemed that when it came to the woman you loved, everyone could lose their head."What should I do? I feel like I haven't been honest with her. I lied. I actually really like kids," Benjamin's face showed a hin
Third Person's POVEda froze. She had thought that once Benjamin knew she was someone who feared marriage and children, he would be disappointed in her. But instead, he said he didn't regret it."You don't have to comfort me. You can tell me the truth. I have a strong mind. I can handle it," Eda said, thinking he was just saying nice things to make her feel better.But this time, Benjamin looked straight into her eyes, speaking slowly and seriously, "I really don't regret it, Eda. I love you, and I support whatever choice you make.""But your family will definitely want us to have kids in the future. I'm really under a lot of pressure now," Eda said. She looked happy but also more worried."My brother and his mate are also planning to start a family and have kids. In our future life together, I want to respect your feelings more," Benjamin said with a smile on his handsome face, as if this wasn't something to worry about.Eda was stunned aga
Third Person's POVEda's words left Benjamin dazed for a second, and the next moment, his lips pressed firmly against her chattering mouth.Eda's mind went completely blank—how could she possibly recall anything with such a surprise? Her beautiful eyes widened in astonishment.Fortunately, Benjamin only kissed her for two seconds before he let go. Then, he whispered reassuringly into her ear, "It's okay. Maybe the doctor misdiagnosed it. Let's get it confirmed.""I'm such an idiot!" Eda suddenly slapped her forehead. "Pregnant people do have constant vomiting. I initially thought it was just something I ate wrong. Now it looks like I might really be pregnant. Benjamin, what are we going to do?"Benjamin gazed deeply into her beautiful eyes and said firmly, "What else can we do? We'll get married and have the baby. Then we'll start a little family of our own.""No way!" Eda froze, and then her lips began to tremble. "I'm not ready to ge
Third Person's POV"What's wrong? Did you eat something cold?" Benjamin received the call early in the morning, and his face instantly filled with concern as he anxiously asked."Maybe. I should have known better than to drink that iced milk yesterday," Eda complained, full of regret."Wait there. I'm coming to get you!" Without a moment's delay, Benjamin hurriedly got out of bed and started getting dressed."Come pick me up at the company. I'll head there first." Eda said before hanging up and driving towards the office.At half past nine, Benjamin appeared at the door of Eda's office, dressed in a dark blue suit. He looked young, handsome, and had that charming, youthful vibe.Eda was sitting listlessly in her office chair. A flicker of relief crossed her eyes when she saw him enter."Are you here?" Ever since she had been with Benjamin, Eda's aura had changed. Once a no-nonsense, strong-willed career woman, she now exuded a touch o
