Chapter 298
Catherine's POV
Outside the hall, downstairs, I was talking to Halsey.
I looked back at the brightly lit living room. I wanted to invite Halsey to go in and have a seat, but I was not Lycan Luna yet, and such a move would be inappropriate.
Both Patricia and Blake disliked Halsey. Finally, I pointed to a chair not far away and said, "Halsey, let's sit over there and talk. I'll get you a cup of coffee. I'll be back soon!"
Halsey nodded and walked over.
I told a maid to get two cups of coffee for me.
I came to Halsey and sat down. Though he was my father, we had never lived together, so we were never close. The atmosphere was a bit dull.
"Halsey, how did you know about my accident?" I asked curiously. I asked Blake to keep my accident a secret because I didn't want others to know. However, Halsey still knew about it.
I felt bad that Halsey and Abigail had to travel such a long distance to visit me.
"Elena called me. She complained a lot about you on the phone. Cathy, I am sorry. It must have been hard for you at the Wyatt's place, right? Why didn't you tell me the truth before?" Halsey looked at me sadly.
I lowered my head and smiled. I said dejectedly, "I had always thought that I was Alpha Wyatt's daughter. After knowing the truth, I didn't have any expectations of him anymore. Then I was sad that my parents abandoned me. However, ever since I found you and learned the truth from you, I felt that I shouldn't have hated you. If you hadn't sent me away, I might not have survived and met Blake."
Halsey looked sad as I mentioned those things that happened before.
"Cathy, you are my only daughter. I want to make it right for you. I will give you all my property. I hope you won't refuse."
"Halsey." I looked at him in disbelief. I said softly, "I don't want your money. I have a job."
"Cassy, this is a token from me, as your father. I'll be sad if you refuse me," Halsey said gently, his tone full of expectation.
"You can give it to Abigail. She is your wife," I thought about it and then said seriously.
"I've already given her half of it. I left the other half for you. Cathy, I didn't know what the future held for me before, but since I found you, I'm finally less concerned about it." There was a note of relief in Halsey's voice. "I'm more than glad to leave my money to you, Noah, and Hedwig."
When I heard Halsey's words, I was so moved that my eyes turned red. How I wished I could have found him earlier. In such a way, I would have grown up with his love.
"Halsey, why didn't you and Abigail have kids? You have been married for so many years." I asked curiously. I could tell that they were deeply in love. I was sure that they would want kids of their own.
"Abigail once suggested it, but I said no. I didn't think it would work. After I lost you and your brother, I didn't want to have another child. I couldn't go through that kind of pain again." Halsey's voice broke.
I cried. I had Noah and Hedwig, so I could imagine the despair and pain Halsey felt when he lost us.
"Halsey, there's no need to be sad. The Moon Goddess has already reunited us." I wanted to reach out to hug Halsey. He had suffered enough sadness and pressure.
"Cathy. Abigail and I have been working things out for a while now. We said our final goodbyes and parted peacefully. From now on, we will no longer stand between you and Blake. You can get married under the Moon Goddess' blessing."
"Halsey, how could you do that?" I was completely shocked. My eyes were filled with tears, and they fell at last.
I couldn't help but sob. Words failed me.
"Cathy, don't cry. I'll never be happy if you're suffering." Halsey reached out and patted my shoulder. He smiled and comforted me.
"Halsey..." I threw myself into Halsey's arms and cried.
"There, there. Cathy, don't cry. Your head is still wounded. Don't get too emotional," Halsey looked at the gauze on my head and said worriedly.
I sobbed and blamed myself, "Halsey, you did all that for Blake and me."
"Abigail and I have lived a happy life over the years. I am very content. You know what? I used to be good friends with Blake's father. I met King Marc earlier than I met Abigail. At that time, she and I were attracted to each other, but for some reason, we could not be together. Then King Marc left, and I was single, so she and I got together despite everyone's disapproval. We believed that it was the Moon Goddess who brought us together. However, we were ashamed of ourselves when facing you. You and Blake have given us a reason to be apart," Halsey spoke from his heart.
I listened to him carefully and could feel Halsey's regret. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
"Halsey, thank you and Abigail for everything you've done. I didn't expect things to turn out this way." Besides gratitude, I didn't know what else to say.
Halsey smiled gently, "Cathy, you are my daughter. I would do anything to make you happy."
I couldn't help but cry out loud.
Suddenly, a silver sports car passed along the garden path and stopped at the entrance of the hall.
Leo was behind the wheel, and Sunny was in the passenger seat.
Leo opened the door after he parked the car.
I was a little surprised when I saw him walk over.
When Halsey turned her head, Leo suddenly stopped.
In the next second, Leo's face darkened. He rushed up to us, pointed at Halsey, and asked angrily, "Halsey, what are you doing here?"
I knew that Blake and Leo hated Halsey. I was a little stunned when I heard Leo's angry questioning.
"Leo, Halsey is here to see me. Please, will you let him stay here for a while?" I got up and stood in front of Leo while looking at him.
Leo still pulled a long face. He said angrily, "Do you have any idea what he did to Blake and me? Even though he is your father, he still doesn't have the right to be here."
I quickly turned back to look at Halsey.
Halsey was not angry. He stood up and said to me, "Cathy, I should go now."
