Catherine’s POV
I looked back and frowned. “Don’t get me wrong. I only agreed to raise the kids together with you. I didn’t mean anything else.”
“So, will you try to get along with me?” asked Blake.
I straightened my long hair, turned my liead, stared at the scenery in the distance, and said indifferently, “I won’t make things difficult for you anymore. As long as you behave yoursell, we can live peacefully.”
“What do you mean by behaving myself? Can you be more specific?” His lips rose, and he couldn’t help but take a few
steps closer to me.
I turned around and looked at him with vigilance. “You can’t go over anything that the kids are not involved in. Last time, you… It was … out of line.”
I wanted to say that he kissed me last time, but I just could not say those words bluntly. It was so embarrassing.
“Last time? What do you mean?” Blake pretended he didn’t understand and looked curious.
I felt that I was blushing. I held back my shyness and gritted my teeth. “I mean when you suddenly kissed me. I hope you won’t do it again.”
Blake’s eyes dimmed, and his tone became indifferent. “Rest assured. I wouldn’t have done that to you if you hadn’t punched and kicked me that day.” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“Are you letting me take the fall? You started it! How would I have hit you if you hadn’t trapped me at the railing and been so narcissistic?” I always felt that I was the victim that day.
Blake stared at me for a few seconds and sneered, “Well, maybe I was too conceited and thought that all women would be interested in me. Since I met you, I found that I was not as adorable as I presumed.”
“And try not to show up in my office in the future. I think that as the boss of the company, you can make these decisions, right?” I suffered a lot in my office today.
Everyone thought that I had taken the initiative to throw myself at him. I seemed like a scheming woman. I felt so wronged!
Blake’s face darkened even more. “Fine. You have my word. I will try not to show up in your office.”
“As for sending the kids to school … If I have time, I will pick them up in the afternoon.” I lowered my head and thought for a while. My tone was no longer that cold.
“Why the sudden change? Is it because of what I said to you today?” Blake chuckled.
I looked up at his smile, and my heart beat faster.
“You are right. The kids are too young for me to leave them alone. Though I think you can take good care of them, I am their mother after all. My care and love for them are also essential,” I said calmly.
Blake didn’t speak. He looked at me quietly.
When I looked up, I met his deep eyes. I was a little embarrassed. “What are you looking at?”
“Nothing!” After meeting my eyes, Blake immediately looked away and said lightly, “Relax. I am always picky when it comes to women. You’re not my type. You don’t have to worry that I will lay my hands on you. Perhaps it won’t be long before you fall for me. If so…”
“I won’t. You can rest assured. Your face is almost identical to Noah’s. I’ve long been used to it.” I told him firmly.
Blake froze and stared at me in disbelief.
I saw disbelief on Blake’s face and thought of how obsessed the female werewolves in the company were with him.
“Let me be blunt with you. Actually, I had a crush on someone once. And I still have feelings for hirn. So, even if I can’t find my mate, I still won’t consider you.”
To convince him that I wouldn’t fall for him, I simply dragged Harley into this.
However, I didn’t expect that when he heard that I still had feelings for another man, his face completely darkened.
Why? Wasn’t he worried that I might be coveting him?
“The guy you had dinner with the other day? He was your first love?” Blake’s voice was cold.
I nodded. “Yes.”
“Don’t tell me that … you gave your virginity to him, too.” Blake had a gloomy face.
I didn’t see it coming at all. How embarrassing! My face burned even more. I said shyly and angrily, “What the hell are you talking about? If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be living such a life now.”
“What kind of life are you living now? Are you not satisfied” Blake raised his eyebrows.
I was stunned and didn’t want to reply to him at all.
“You have two lovely kids now, and they make you happier than anything, right?” Blake answered for me.
I could not refute it. He was right.
“I’m done talking to you. I still have work to do.” I had said everything I needed to say, and talking to him more would just be wasting my time.
When Blake saw me turn around, somehow, he reached out and grabbed my arm. “I want you to promise me that you won’t take the kids to see your first love.”
I looked at the large palm that was grabbing my arm tightly. I almost felt that his palm was burning. The temperature infiltrated my clothes, and I could feel the heat directly, making me uncomfortable.
“Don’t worry. I don’t want others to know about the kids either. Let go of me.” I waved my hand in frustration and shook his large palm off.
Blake’s good-looking eyebrows were twisted.
I hurriedly fled back to my room. When I sat on my bed, I found that my heart was beating very fast, and I could still feel Blake’s warm body temperature on my arm.
“Catherine, your heart is beating fast,” Eva’s voice suddenly sounded in my mind, startling me.
I said embarrassedly, “I know. Why did you suddenly appear?”
“Your heart is beating so fast that I can’t rest.” It sounded like Eva was teasing me, which was very rare. “Why don’t you try accepting that man?”
“What are you talking about? He isn’t our mate,” I replied, a little annoyed.
“I feel that he makes me feel safe and … familiar.” Eva’s voice became somewhat ethereal, as if it were thinking about
