Chapter 152
Catherine’s POV
“Blake, let’s say what you said is true. But I am not as emotional as you are.”
“I’m not trying to force you to fall in love with me, but I hope that our relationship will grow deeper. Can you tell me how you feel about me now? I want to be sure. I don’t want to spend my day wandering anymore. Please?” Blake’s tone was very gentle, making people unable to resist.
I bit my lower lip. I had always been brave, but not right now.
“Well, I admit that you have been very nice to me and the kids these days, and your performance is almost flawless. Anyway, I don’t hate living with you now. But I can’t say that I’m in love with you.” I plucked up my courage and expressed my feelings. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“It’s already a good start, isn’t it?” Blake chuckled in a low voice.
I looked up at him. He had been immersed in sorrow just now, but now he was chuckling.
Was he acting back then?
“How’s your relationship with your mother now?” I asked curiously.
His face instantly turned sullen, and his tone was as cold as ice. He said, “I haven’t seen her for many years. I don’t want to see her.”
I was stunned. I didn’t expect that he would choose to break off all ties with his mother after what she had done to him.
“Then do you intend to keep things like this for the rest of your life?”
“Unless she leaves the man.” Blake said coldly.
His request made sense.
“What if she doesn’t? You really won’t see her ever again?”
“I don’t know.” His voice instantly became deeper.
I was stunned. I thought he would give me a positive reply. But even Blake himself didn’t know the answer.

“It’s getting late, and you’ve been drinking. Go to bed early. I’ll sleep with the kids.” I didn’t want to ask any more questions.
“OK.” Blake did not stop me.
“By the way, Hedwig wanted me to ask you if we would go to the amusement park tomorrow.” I grabbed the door knob and turned back.
Blake’s face instantly became softer. “Of course. I have made a promise to them.”
The corners of my mouth lifted inexplicably, and then I gently closed the door.
Early the next morning, I woke up in a daze because of the noise of my kids.
“Mommy, wake up! It’s dawn. We should set off and go to the amusement park!” Hedwig patted my face, her soft voice ringing in my ears.
I went to bed at midnight last night, and now that I was woken up, I felt that my head was killing me.
I sat up powerlessly and looked at the two jolly faces in front of me. I somehow felt better.
“Alright. Let’s go and wash up now!”
After washing up for the kids, I dressed them up attentively.
Noah looked at his white T-shirt with a big pink heart on it and curled his mouth in disgust. “Mommy, do I have to wear a matching outfit with you? It feels so strange.”
I was also wearing a T-shirt with the same pink heart painted on the front. I looked at Noah while tying Hedwig’s hair into cute pigtails. “Yes. Didn’t we always dress like this?”
“That’s right, Noah. Would you stop judging mommy’s taste in clothes all the time?” Hedwig immediately put her hands on her waist and glared at Noah airily.
Noah compromised and said, “I’m going to see if daddy’s awake yet. Mommy, will daddy wear the same ridiculous T-shirt?”
“He doesn’t have one. I bought these for the three of us a long time ago.” I was slightly

stunned.
“Won’t this make daddy feel that he is excluded? It will make him sad.” Hedwig pouted.
I disagreed. I said, “He won’t. As I said, this is from long ago. I didn’t know that he existed back then.”
Noah had yet to walk out of the parlor when we saw Blake coming back from a run. His slightly messy short hair was dripping with sweat.
“Daddy, you got up so early to run!” Seeing Blake, Noah was full of joy.
Blake walked over and squatted in front of Noah, stroking Noah’s head.
Blake looked at Noah and asked, “What are you wearing? Who bought this for you?”
Noah answered loudly, “Mommy! It is a matching outfit. But daddy, mommy said you didn’t have one. She bought the T-shirts a long time ago.”
They were chatting, and I walked toward them together with the cute and beautiful Hedwig who had already dressed up.
“Daddy, you can’t even move your eyes off her! Isn’t mommy very pretty?” Noah, who was at the side, crossed his arms in front of his chest and said with a smile.
Hearing that, Blake blushed.
I happened to look over. Our gazes intertwined in the air, making both of us uneasy and flustered.
“Daddy! Daddy! Can we go now? I can’t wait!” Hedwig ran to Blake, grabbed his big hand, and shook it happily.
Blake picked Hedwig
and kissed her face. “Have some breakfast first. After breakfast,
we will set off immediately!”
We sat at the dining table. Blake handed his phone to me. I reached out, took his phone, and saw several photos on it, which were all photos of Blake and me shopping in the mall yesterday
“How did this get reported as well?” I was surprised.

Blake said lightly, “I asked someone to take the photos.”
“Why? What’s the point?” I was confused.
Blake smiled. “To show others that we have a solid relationship. There is no better revenge than to humiliate those jibber-jabberers.”
“But I don’t even care about them.” I curled my lips.
Blake said with a smile, “I do. I don’t want to see any negative news.”
“Should I thank you, then?” I summoned my courage and looked up into his dark eyes.
Blake raised his thin lips. “I won’t stop you if that’s what you want.”
His gaze made my face burn. I quickly turned my head and said, “Eat your breakfast. The kids are looking forward to the trip.”
“What about you?” Blake asked me in a low voice.
I tried to calm myself down. “Does it matter to you?”
“Of course. Though the trip is for the kids, you are their mother, and that makes your opinion equally important to me.” Blake was full of sincerity. He said tenderly.
I said, “Who wouldn’t like a trip for fun? I am no exception.”
