Chapter 103

Catherine's POV

I panicked and quickly explained, "Yes, I'm out with a friend. She brought her kids here. Harley, I've got to go. Talk to you later. I'll congratulate you properly when I see you!"

I quickly held my phone in my hand and looked down. I saw the two kids staring at me in a daze.

Noah narrowed his eyes. "Mommy, were you on the phone with some man? When we called you just now, you ignored us and said we were your friend's children. I'm so sad."

I knew Noah was discontent. Just as I was about to squat down to comfort him, I turned around and saw a tall figure leaning against the door behind me.

Blake stared at me without blinking. His hands were crossed in front of his chest, and his face seemed a bit livid.

"Noah, I'm sorry. Mommy doesn't want him to know about you yet. Don't be angry, OK?" I deliberately ignored Blake and comforted Noah in a low voice.

Hedwig blinked innocently. "Mommy, who was he? Why don't you want him to know about me and Noah? Is it because he doesn't like us?"

"That's not it. He doesn't know about your existence. It's not that he doesn't like you. Don't take it the wrong way, OK?"

Noah could not help but let out a low sigh.

Hedwig saw Noah walking into the parlor and immediately ran over.

I stood up from the ground and was about to enter the parlor as well.

Suddenly, Blake grabbed my wrist, and I was easily pushed to the side of the door.

Then he pressed one of his large hands against my ear.

"Who was it? Who made you so happy? You even had to hide it from the kids? Were you afraid of letting him know?" Though Blake did not make any further move, he sounded very angry.

I pushed his hand away and said coldly, "None of your business!"

I took my purse and walked upstairs. I glanced back and saw Blake standing at the door with a sullen face.

I had an indescribable feeling.

I took Harley's call in front of Blake deliberately. I had no idea what I was thinking. Now that I saw Blake's reaction, I felt like T went too far.

I didn't want anything to do with Blake. Why did I want to see how he reacted? He was jealous now, and he questioned me. I realized that... I wasn't that angry and upset anymore.

When I returned to my room and saw the phone in my hand, I couldn't help but turn it on. I searched for Harley's name.

Sure enough, the news of him signing with a media company had gone viral.

I looked through a few of his photos. Sure enough, he had the potential of an idol. He could be either a mature man or an innocent boy living next to someone's door. Various styles suited him perfectly, and he looked so natural. He was born to be a star.

I was sincerely happy for him. I smiled and grabbed my clothes to take a shower.

I took a shower, came out, wiped my long hair, and decided to go downstairs for dinner.

At the dinner table, Blake's face was even more sullen. I ignored him.

"Daddy, what's wrong? Are you unhappy? Who made you unhappy? Tell me! I will help you teach that person a lesson." Hedwig was still young, yet she could sense others' emotions already.

She was caring about her daddy.

Seeing Hedwig's clear and bright eyes, Blake smiled and said gently, "Daddy is fine."

"Really? But you haven't said a word. You must have been bullied," Hedwig said, tilting her head.

When I heard Hedwig's words, I realized that she was right. Blake did not say anything for quite a long time.

"Mommy, don't take calls from other men in front of daddy anymore. See? Daddy is upset because of you," Noah said directly.

I patted Noah's head and said, "Stop talking nonsense."

After dinner, Blake and I bathe the kids, and it was time to sleep.

I held Hedwig and was about to coax her to sleep.

Hedwig, was sleepy. Her beautiful eyes were about to close, but she tried hard not to fall asleep. She said in a soft voice, "Mommy, you don't seem to care about daddy. Why?"

I was stunned, and then I chuckled. "That's not true. I care about him sometimes."

"But I haven't heard you care about him once. Momuny, daddy is a good one. Be nicer to him, OK?" Hedwig looked a little pitiful. She blinked her big eyes and looked at me, pleading.

I knew what Hedwig was thinking. My heart softened. I stroked her head and hugged her tighter. "Hedwig, go to sleep. I promise to care about your daddy more in the future."

"Great! Pinky promise!" When Hedwig heard my words, she smiled and stretched out a finger with satisfaction.

I was a bit speechless. I didn't expect Hedwig to be this serious. However, since I made a promise, I couldn't go back on my word. With our fingers hooked, Hedwig slowly fell asleep with a smile on her face.

I kissed Hedwig's head, and I struggled for a long time. Hedwig wanted me to be nicer to Blake so badly. What should I do?

Should I say yes for the sake of the kids? Wouldn't it be a bit ridiculous?

When he snatched the kids away, I stated so firmly that I would hate him for the rest of my life.

But now, I could hardly keep my guards up. Blake was so terrible. How could he force me into a corner like this?

No way. No matter what the kids thought, I wouldn't give in easily. It wasn't who I was.

The next morning, I led Hedwig downstairs and saw Blake. He did not leave. Instead, he was chatting with Noah, who kept giggling,

"Noah, what are you and daddy talking about? You look so happy. Can 1 join you?" Hedwig immediately ran over with a curious face.

"No. It's a topic between men. A girl like you shouldn't listen!" Noah immediately looked at Hedwig disapprovingly.

As soon as Hedwig heard his words, she pouted, and she looked at Blake with her pair of pitiful, big eyes.

Blake quickly walked over and put her on his lap. He comforted her gently, "We were just talking about cars. You won't be interested."

I walked over, pulled out a chair, sat down, and touched Noah's head. "You didn't get into trouble at school yesterday, did you?"

"No. I'm a good boy," Noah answered with a smile.

"What about Hedwig?" I looked at Hedwig and accidentally met Blake's deep eyes.

My heart skipped a beat. I quickly retracted my gaze.

"What can she do but cry?" Noah continued to pick on Hedwig.

Hedwig kicked her legs unhappily and looked at Blake pitifully.
