Chapter 143

Catherine’s POV

I couldn’t believe Blake had been watching me in the shadows. In other words, he saw what I just did!

I felt extremely ashamed and immediately turned to leave.

“Stop!” I had only taken a few steps when I heard his command from behind me.

I stopped obediently and turned around. I glared at him with some resentment. “How long have you beenstanding there? Why didn’t you make a sound? Did you deliberately make me a fool? You are soterrible.”

“You’re just saying that because you’re embarrassed. Right?” There was a smile in Blake’s eyes.

I was stunned. Damn Blake!

Just as I decided not to talk to him for the rest of my life, Blake quickly walked toward me. Then, with astrong and overbearing grip, he pulled me towards the balcony.

My eyes were wide open. I looked down at my wrist that was tightly grabbed by Blake, and I had beenforcefully led forward by him.

“Blake, what are you doing? Let go! I’m going to sleep!” I had decided not to ask him for the favor. Self-esteem was more important.

I would rather keep my pride than be looked down upon by him.

“Weren’t you looking for me just now?” There was still a smile in Blake’s tone.

I was going crazy.

“I have nothing to say to you now. Let go of me!” I denied it.

But I had already been pulled out of the balcony by Blake.

I felt that my back was gently pushed against the wall by Blake. Immediately after, Blake placed a handnext to my ear.

He looked down at me from above, and my breathing quickened. I raised my eyes and looked at Blake’sunfathomable eyes.

“Why did you make me a fool?” I accused him of his evil deeds.

“Why did you make me a fool?” I accused him of his evil deeds.

Blake was slightly stunned. He shrugged in surprise and innocence. “When did I make you a fool?”

“You had no intention of agreeing to my request at all. You just wanted to tease me, didn’t you?“|

hadn’t heard his answer yet. Of course, my mind was filled with the worst consequences.

Blake couldn’t help but smile in a deep voice.

“Cathy, I won’t refuse any of your requests,” said Blake.

I was stunned when I heard his words.

“Really?” He finally answered, yet I was a little suspicious.

VA

Perhaps it was because the corners of his lips were raised, making me wonder.

Blake stopped smiling and became serious. “Of course. I will say yes to any of your requests, as long asit’s not about taking the children away from me.”

“Be careful what you say.” I felt that Blake was exaggerating.

“Alright. I’ve already agreed to your request. Now, should we talk about things between you and me?”Blake stared at me without blinking.

I immediately understood what he meant.

Just as I was about to reach out and push him away, his tall body had already leaned down. He kissed

me in an instant.

I didn’t even have the time to react. I was kissed firmly by him just like that.

My hands were pressed against his chest, and I kept trying to push him away. But why did I lose all mystrength all of a sudden?

All of the strength in my body seemed to have been taken away by Blake.

I was very afraid of my reaction. It made me feel that in the next second, I would be obsessed with hislips.

No way. I wouldn’t let it happen. I couldn’t fall for that. It would be so spineless.

However, disagreeing with my heart, my body seemed to be the honest one.

Blake didn’t go any further than that. He simply kissed my lips. He propped one hand on the wall behindme, and the other gently lifted my chin.

Comannanouched

Someone coughed.

Both Blake and I heard the sound clearly.

Blake didn’t care, but I used all my strength to push him away, and he took a few steps back.

We turned to look and saw that Howard was holding a milk bottle in one hand and holding Ash in theother, standing there with an embarrassed look.

I was so embarrassed that I just wanted to vanish for good.

“What are you doing here instead of staying in your room?”\Blake was a little unhappy.

Howard said with a bitter face, “I wanted to stay in the room, but Ash didn’t. So, I brought her

here.”

I didn’t dare to say a word. I just hid behind Blake.

Howard sat down on a chair at the side and stuffed the pacifier into Ash’s mouth. Ash happily held themilk bottle and sucked in large mouthfuls. Her face was filled with happiness.

Blake walked over and gently stroked Ash’s face with his finger. “Your daughter is so cute. Take goodcare of her. I’m going to sleep.”

I hurriedly went around behind Blake and left in a hurry.

After I returned to my room, I lay on the bed. Beside me, Hedwig was sleeping soundly, but I just

felt hot all over. I couldn’t calm down whatsoever.

Why would I have such a strong reaction?

Y was not supposed to be interested in Blake. Was my body attracted to him?

The next morning arrived.

Ilistlessly dragged Hedwig down the stairs.

Noah immediately asked with concern, “Mommy, did you not sleep well yesterday? What’s wrong? Isthere something bothering you?”

Blake could not help but smile in a low voice.

I carried Hedwig to the children’s seat, sat down, and took a glass of water to drink.

“Mommy, if you have something on your mind, you can tell me. I will share it with you,” Noah said.

I chuckled. “Noah, I’m fine. It’s just that … I was bitten by a mosquito yesterday!”

I wanted to say that I was bitten by a dog. But we didn’t have a dog at home. I couldn’t lie.

Hearing my words, Noah blinked and turned to look at Blake. “Daddy, are there mosquitoes at home?”

Blake’s handsome face was slightly embarrassed as he vaguely said, “Probably… Maybe.”

“Mommy, don’t worry. I’ll tell Dowen about this on my way to school. I will ask him to kill the mosquito assoon as possible!”

As soon as Noah finished speaking, Blake choked on coffee.’

I was in low spirits. But when I heard that Noah cared so much about me, I instantly felt much better.

“You’re right. It should be killed! It deserves to be killed!” I agreed with Noah and said angrily.

Blake looked at me with a dangerous look in his eyes. With a touch of provocation, he said lightly, “Becareful not to let the mosquito hear you. Maybe it will bite somewhere else and make you itch even morenext time.”

When I heard this, I immediately glared at Blake.

Bastard! How could he say such shameless words at the dining table? Besides, the kids were here! Washe crazy?

Hedwig instantly shouted, “If that mosquito dares to bite mommy again, I will step on it!”

“I’ll slap it into ashes!” Noah was not to be outdone.

dur kids had a lot of fight in them. On the contrary, Blake and I both fell silent and stopped talking.

The atmosphere during breakfast was still harmonious.

“Where are Mr. Twitty and Ash?” I asked curiously.

Blake said lightly, “Maybe they haven’t woken up yet. They must have slept very late yesterday.”

I looked sympathetically in the direction of the stairs. “It is so difficult for him to take care of his daughter.”

“It is his duty. There is no rule saving that a woman should take care of the child, is there?” Blake

answered with a smile.

His words made me feel warm, but then my expression froze.

It was so weird. Why did I always care so much about what Blake said?
