Chapter 84

Blake’s POV

After kissing Catherine this morning, I was in a particularly good mood.

A day of tense and busy work passed again, and I went home early to accompany Noah and Hedwig.

When Catherine walked into the parlor, I was watching the kids playing and enjoying themselves.

“I’m so happy to finally have a holiday tomorrow!” Noah was jumping around in the parlor, talking non-stop.

Hedwig ran beside him with a smile. “Noal, I want to go for a picnic tomorrow. What do you think?”

“Sure! I’m already excited!” Noah had a rare look of childlike innocence on his face.

“Noah, let’s go for a picnic. And we should let daddy and mommy come with us together. I’m sure it’llbe fun!” said Hedwig.

“What are you little things talking about?” Catherine came in and asked with a smile.

“Mommy, you came back just in time. Noah and I are talking about having a picnic tomorrow.” Hedwigsmiled happily when she saw Catherine. Then she held Catherine’s hand tightly and looked up atCatherine. “Mommy, say yes. Come with us together.”

“Who said anything about a picnic?” Catherine looked at Noah suspiciously. Noah immediately raisedhis hands. “It wasn’t me. Mommy, don’t look at me.”

“Daddy said it!” Hedwig suddenly shouted. “Daddy…”

Catherine looked back and saw me sitting on the sofa in the parlor.

I looked at Hedwig while she was running toward me and immediately squatted down. I held Hedwigtightly in my arms and kissed her face.

“Daddy, we’re going for a picnic tomorrow, right?” Hedwig put her arms around my neck and whisperedinto my ear, “Daddy, come on! I really want to have a picnic with you.”

I couldn’t reject Hedwig’s cute voice whatsoever. I nodded and said, “Yes. We’ll take the kids for apicnic tomorrow, behind the mountains. It’s nice up there.”

“Great! Daddy, I love you the most!” Hearing my words, Hedwig immediately raised her hands andcheered. She also kissed me on the face.

Catherine shook her head helplessly.

“No objections from me. I can try out my remote-controlled plane tomorrow.” Noah was very happy aswell, but he acted cool and controlled himself.

Catherine went upstairs with her purse in her hand. Hedwig followed her closely.

“Mommy, our teacher gave me a very delicious cake today. Noah didn’t get anything,” Hedwig saidproudly as she walked upstairs.

Catherine stood on the stairs and looked back at Noah. She frowned and said, “Did you get into troubleagain! Otherwise, why didn’t you get anything whereas Hedwig got a reward?”

“Noah kissed a girl, and the girl cried. Then she went to the teacher to tell on him!” Hedwig toldCatherine everything when she heard Catherine’s nuestion

Get Bus

“Hedwig, if you speak more, I will punish you!” Noah was angry at once. He raised his hand and actedas if he were about to run after Hedwig.

Hedwig was frightened. She quickly hid behind Catherine and shouted, “Mommy, help! Noah wants tohit me!”

Catherine heard Hedwig’s words and was angry. She glared at Noah. “Tell me the truth. Did you bullysome girl in your class?”

“Mommy, I didn’t. I didn’t bully lier. She was the one who made a bet with me. She said that if I kissedher, she would lend me her book.” Noah immediately explained with grievances.

Catherine was stunned. She stared at Noah. “And you think that made what you did OK? Only bastardswill bully girls. I wonder where you learn that from.”

Noah said, “Mommy, I think the answer is pretty obvious.”

My lips twitched. Was Catherine beating around the bush and calling me a bastard again?

I forcibly suppressed the displeasure in my heart. She was getting better at sarcasm.

“Promise me now that you won’t bully girls again. You know what will happen otherwise.” Catherinestared at Noah sternly.

“Mommy, I promise. I won’t bully them again. If I do, then I … I won’t be as handsome as daddy.”

His words made me glad.

Was he saying that I was handsome?

Catherine looked at me again and said nothing.

“That’s not enough. Try a harder one,” said Catherine.

“Mommy, it’s harsh enough. You know I want nothing but to be as tall and handsome as daddy. I don’thave any other wishes.” Noah blinked and said seriously.

I stroked his head and smiled, “You’re ambitious. Daddy is glad to know that.”

Catherine crossed her arms in front of her chest and said seriously, “Noah, don’t joke around with me.Behave yourself. Mommy is serious.”

“Mommy, I’m sorry...” Noah immediately walked over, stretched out, and hugged Catherine’s thigh. Heraised his head and apologized sincerely, “It won’t happen again.”

Hedwig also said in a childish voice, “Mommy, please forgive Noah this time. I will keep an eye on himin the future. He won’t do it again.”

Catherine squatted down and said earnestly, “Fine. I will let this slide. Be good, both of you.”

I looked at Catherine squatting in front of the kids. That gentle and maternal look on her face actuallymade me somewhat absent-minded.

Thad to admit one thing. Catherine’s beauty could only be appreciated more as time passed. Herfeatures were very beautiful, and her eyes were glowing. She might not strike the eye, but afterspending some time with her, one would only feel that she was getting prettier every day.

After a few seconds, I looked away and walked over to Hedwig, saying, “Hedwig, what do you want toeat for the picnic tomorrow? I’ll ask Dowen to prepare.”
