Chapter 299
Catherine's POV
"Halsey, I'll go with you." The feelings I had were tearing me apart. It made me sad to think that Halsey didn't even deserve to be here.
"No, Cathy. Stay," Halsey stopped me.
"Halsey, at least let me send you out." I was in great pain. Halsey and Abigail were divorced. From now on, he would be a werewolf without a mate, and as his daughter, I felt terrible.
I held Halsey's arm and was about to leave with him.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed my wrist.
Then I heard Leo's voice. "I didn't ask you to leave..."
I didn't expect that Leo would reach out to pull me. I was a little shocked.
I saw Sunny in the car. She was opening the door. It seemed that she wanted to stop Leo.
I was very angry. By doing this, Leo would give others the wrong idea about my relationship with him. I didn't dare to imagine what would happen if Blake saw us.
In the next second, a voice came over.
"What is going on?"
It was Blake.
Leo was frightened. He quickly let go of my hand. When he turned around, he saw Blake standing under the shadow of a tree. Blake's face was in the shadow, but I could tell that he was very unhappy.
Blake looked at me. I quickly lowered my head and dared not to look into his eyes. I was worried that he would know everything.
Sunny looked at us in panic. She did not dare to get out of the car.
"Blake, why is he here?" Leo pointed at Halsey.
Blake looked at Halsey. When he saw me holding Halsey's arm, his face became even more sullen.
"I let him in. He came to see Cathy. Is there a problem?" Blake replied.
Leo suddenly turned around madly. "Whatever. This is your business."
After saying that, Leo quickly walked towards his car. Then he knocked hard on the car window, signaling Sunny to get out.
Sunny opened the car door and got out quickly.
Leo quickly took her into the living room. He looked panicked.
"I'll see Halsey off. I will be back soon," I whispered.
"Where are you going? It's dinnertime now. You may send him off after dinner," Blake said suddenly, his voice much calmer this time.
My eyes widened in surprise. Even Halsey found it somehow hard to believe.
"I don't suppose he has met Noah and Hedwig yet, right? Maybe you can take him upstairs to meet the kids." Blake's next sentence took me by surprise again.
Halsey looked overjoyed. "King Blake, do you mean that can I see Noah and Hedwig?"
I was also very thrilled. Unlike Leo, Blake wasn't that mad when facing Halsey. Was I dreaming?
Blake said calmly, "Though you and Abigail divorced, I still can't forgive you for what you did before. But you are Cathy's father. No one can change that."
"Blake, thank you," I said, looking at Blake gratefully.
Blake nodded at me. "Go. Don't stand outside. It's windy here. You are still recovering."
I nodded. Then I held Halsey's hand and walked to the living room.
I took Halsey to the second floor and saw that Abigail was playing games with Noah and Hedwig.
Patricia was watching from the side.
As Patricia saw me and Halsey, she put on a gloomy face.
"Abigail, let's go downstairs and have some coffee. Let Halsey spend some time with the kids." Patricia's attitude toward Halsey was still cold, but it was better than before.
I cast a grateful look at Patricia.
Abigail and Halsey looked at each other. They looked calm and did not say anything.
"OK." Abigail got up. Then she said to Noah and Hedwig, "I'll be downstairs. Let's hang out later."
"OK, Abigail. Can I see you again sometime?" Hedwig seemed very fond of Abigail, perhaps because Abigail was looking at her with such love and tenderness.
"Sure. I will visit you often!" Abigail said with a smile.
"Alright then! It's a deal!" Hedwig nodded with a smile. Her face was full of joy.
After Patricia and Abigail left, Noah and Hedwig rushed to my side. "Who is he, Mommy?"
I crouched and introduced him, "This is Mommy's father, Halsey."
"Really?" Noah asked in surprise.
Halsey's eyes were red. He looked at Noah and Hedwig gently.
Noah looked like Blake, but Hedwig looked like me. Our eyes were almost identical.
"Mommy, what a great day! We get to meet Abigail and Halsey!" Hedwig jumped up with joy.
Halsey was so moved that he cried. He kept nodding. "Noah, Hedwig, I miss you a lot."
I watched Halsey interact with Noah and Hedwig, wondering if I was in a dream.
After Blake lied to me, I thought I'd never see anything like this. Yet, it really happened.
I left them alone. I was about to go downstairs to ask Dowen what time dinner would start.
As I came downstairs, I saw Leo and Sunny coming in from the back garden, while Patricia and Abigail were sitting in the living room. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Abigail was very excited to see Leo. She stood up.
"Leo..." Abigail's voice was filled with guilt and sadness.
When Leo saw her, he turned away and was about to leave.
"Leo, come here. Sit down," Patricia said sternly.
Sunny stood there, looking surprised. I wondered if Leo had told her about Abigail.
Leo sat down with a gloomy face after what Patricia had said.
Patricia said to Dowen, who was standing next to her, "Where's Blake? Tell him to come here."
Dowen quickly replied, "King Blake is having a cigarette outside."
"Ask him to come back," Patricia ordered.
Dowen turned around and left.
I felt unsettled. Blake was smoking. Was it because he saw Leo with me just now?
Shortly after, Blake returned to the living room.
Sunny stood up. It seemed that she wanted to excuse herself from the scene. Yet Patricia said, "Sunny, take a seat. I have something to say."
Sunny hesitated for a moment and then sat down.
Patricia looked at me and said, "Catherine, come here."
I walked to Blake.
Blake sat down on the sofa. He didn't speak. Instead, he was waiting for Patricia to speak.
Patricia sighed. Then she said, "Blake, Leo, you both know that Marc has been living in seclusion for more than ten years now. Today, I want you to reconcile with Abigail. I have discussed this with Emerson, and he agrees with me. I would like to hear your opinions."
