Catherine’s POV
Blake became serious and scolded Noah, “Watch your mouth. You’re going to make Hedwig cry.”
Noah curled his lips in disapproval. “What can she do besides act pettish in front of you?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Hearing that, Hedwig cried.
I heard Noah’s words and then looked at Hedwig, who was leaning against Blake’s arms pitifully. I thought about it, and I realized that Noah was right. Hedwig did like to act pettish.
Blake immediately said to Noah, “That’s what makes a girl adorable. Don’t you understand?”
Noah was stunned and suddenly grinned. “Daddy, are you saying this to my mommy? You’re saying that she’s too stubborn and doesn’t know how to act pettish, right?”
“That’s not what I meant!” Blake immediately tried to defend himself. I wondered who he was explaining to.
“I’m done. You guys take your time. Be good and listen to Dowen. Don’t be late for class.” I stood up and wiped my mouth with a tissue. After telling the two kids, I carried my purse and walked out the door.
I got into the car and felt annoyed.
Indeed. I hadn’t known how to play pettish since I was a child. But it wasn’t my fault. Since I was a child, no one had doted on me. I had no one to rely on. I didn’t have the chance to be spoiled.

“I will!” After I hung up the phone, I visited a webpage. Sure enough, there was a live stream of Lorelei’s performance.
The moment Lorelei stepped onto the stage, one of the judges gave her a thumbs-up regarding her appearance.
Lorelei put on a tender and cute expression. The smile on her face made others think she was a friendly girl.
As I watched, I couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. She looked like a different person when she was on stage.
Then Lorelei began to sing the song she had prepared on the stage. Her voice sounded alright. However, since it wasn’t her original song, she wasn’t as good as the original singer. But the judges still gave her a high score. She smiled very sweetly and went off stage.
I watched her get off the stage and heaved a sigh of relief.
I shut down the webpage and continued to work.
When I was in the printing room, suddenly, the door was pushed open. I turned around, and before I could speak, someone slapped me hard.
I was stunned. I opened my eyes wide and looked at Lorelei, who was utterly pissed off.
“Why did you slan me?” I didn’t expect that when Lorelei came in, she just slapped me without saying anything. I was
