Chapter 224

Catherine's POV

Upon hearing Dr. Cooper's words, I tensed up. Yet I still nodded. "Sure. Go ahead."

"Have you ever thought about that night in the last five years?"

"No. I avoided it. I didn't want to think about it at all."

"Then take a moment to think about what happened five years ago that caused you to break down."

I closed my eyes and clenched my fists. For the first time, I was willing to face that night when everything went wrong.

Suddenly, some images flashed through my mind.

"I remember something!" My entire body trembled. Indeed, I recalled something. I just didn't want to dig into it.

"What is it?" Dr. Cooper asked gently. "Tell me. Let me know what you are thinking."

"I woke up once that night, because I was so painful. When I opened my eyes, I thought I heard Blake calling out a name, a woman's name."

I suddenly sat up and covered my face. The pain deep down had nowhere to hide.

"Do you remember what that name was?" Dr. Cooper continued to ask in a very soft voice.

"It was Emily!" Even after five years, I still hadn't forgotten the name.

That night, I woke up to the fact that I was a substitute for another woman.

"Who was she? Did you know her?" Dr. Cooper asked.

"Yes. She was a woman Blake had a crush on." Emily's elegant and beautiful appearance emerged in my mind. I felt resentment and anger inexplicably. It turned out to be her.

"That would explain why you're so tensed up. You always have a grudge deep down, feeling that he treats you as a substitute. You resent him, resist him, and it becomes the cause of your illness today. Ms. Wyatt, since you have recalled what happened, you should face it bravely. It's the only way to get over it," Dr. Cooper said.

I felt as if I had been seriously ill. My body was weak, and my clenched fists were full of sweat.

"Dr. Cooper, thank you. I'd like to go now." I suddenly became more passive.

After thanking her, I stood up and put on my coat. "Thank you for helping me. Now I know why I became like this."

"Ms. Wyatt, you know it now, but you still can't let go of it easily. You still need to come and talk to me again. OK?"

"I will!" After I finished speaking, I turned and left.

I was walking out of the hospital, and I looked at the warm sunlight outside the door. I took a step out, soaking my body in the sun.

The warm feeling took the chill out of me.

Yes, I now recalled all of that painful memory that I deliberately buried in the bottom of my heart.

That night, I woke up from intense pain. I seemed to be kicking and tearing at him, but it didn't affect him at all. What was more, he kept calling out another woman's name.

I couldn't remember how painful I felt that night. I was suffering both mentally and physically.

Finally, I fainted. When I woke up, I was kicked out of the pack in a sorry state.

Blake said he didn't like Emily, but he was lying, wasn't he?

I had mixed feelings. I didn't know what I could believe anymore.

Although he was always doting on me gently, the second I remembered the past, I felt devastated. The reality was so cruel. Everything that happened was like a joke.

I walked forward aimlessly.

I felt like there was a fire burning in my heart.

Eva suddenly woke up. It seemed to feel my pain.

Both of us felt hurt.

Under Eva's encouragement, I shifted quickly, and I started running.

I wasn't in Shadow Forest, but I was far from downtown Sayreville. There were no busy streets here. I felt the wind in my hair as I ran.

Finally, I went to a river. I stopped, and Eva's mood was relieved.

I shifted into human form and went to the river. I stood under the bridge and watched the flowing river in a daze.

I didn't know how long I had been standing there. Suddenly, I heard a voice behind me.

"Cathy..." Blake rushed behind me and called my name gently.

I was stunned as I looked at Blake standing not far behind me. He looked like he wanted to come over, but he didn't dare to.

"Why are you here?" I was confused. Shouldn't he be at the office at this time? Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Cathy, Dr. Cooper told me everything. I'm sorry. I didn't know I was the one who made you suffer." Blake looked at me.

Then I realized why he was here. I said bitterly, "I was surprised as well. Blake, you lied to me, didn't you?"

"I didn't lie to you. I didn't!" Blake seemed to be trying to explain but ended up in denial.

Indeed, it was true that he didn't love Emily now, but five years ago, he did have feelings for her.

"Can you let go of my past? The past means nothing. I know only one thing. I love you, and it is only you. I want to marry you. I want to take care of you and the kids for the rest of my life. I want to give you the best life possible," Blake said.

"Blake, I know I shouldn't be dwelling on your past, but all I can think about right now is the sound of you calling her name. Will you leave me alone for a while? You can go back to the office. Maybe I'll be fine if I stand alone here for a while." I stepped a few steps back. My mind was in a whirl.

Blake anxiously shouted, "Alright, Cathy. Calm down! I know you believe in me. I'll do anything to help you get over it!"

"Blake, go back. It's windy here." I raised my hand towards him.

"Cathy, can I take you home before going back to work?" Blake asked me gently.

I shook my head. "No. I don't want to go home now. I just want to stay here. Don't worry. I just want to have a moment myself."

"But it is so dangerous here. How can I not get worried?" As Blake spoke, he walked over step by step. "Cathy, now that you believe in my sincerity, isn't it time for you to face up to our feelings?"

"Blake, stay back!" I watched him walk toward me step by step, and for some reason, I wanted to retreat.

However, Blake ignored my words. He still walked forward and reached out his hand. "Cathy, give me your hand!"
