The car window slowly descended, revealing a familiar face. Catherine was stunned to see the man in
the car.
Sophia was very excited when she saw him and she smiled brightly, “Daddy.” Anderson glanced at the
slender woman standing by the road side. He said coldly, “Get in.”
Catherine didn’t move, but Sophia already stepped towards the car and tried to open the door. She
tried pulling the door open, but she still couldn’t open it.
She turned around looking at Catherine, “Mommy, aren’t we going to sleep?” Catherine bent down and
gently said to Sophia, “Mommy will take you to a hotel, okay?” Sophia pursed her little lips as tears
almost fell down her cheeks, “But I want to be with Daddy too.”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Anderson muttered, “Catherine, let’s see if there’s any hotel in City
W who dares to take you in.”
Catherine stiffened her body as she clenched her fist. It was him who caused her to be homeless and
wandering on the streets now. How could he act like nothing was wrong?
“Mommy.” Sophia sounded as if she was going to cry.
“Catherine, you know Sophia’s health condition isn’t well.”
Catherine’s face immediately turned pale when she heard Anderson’s words and pulled the door open.
Sophia quickly got into the car and pounced on Anderson, “Daddy, I miss you so much!”
Anderson was seldom this close to children, so he frowned subconsciously.
“Sophia, come here.” Catherine pulled Sophia into her embrace and hugged her tightly.
Sophia looked at Anderson’s expression and didn’t dare to speak anymore after seeing him frown. She
laid in Catherine’s arms and murmured softly, “Mommy, doesn’t Daddy like me?”
Catherine kept quiet. He just didn’t like her, so he disliked the children that she had given birth to as
well.
She patted Sophia’s head to comfort her, “No.”
Sophia raised her head and looked at Catherine with her bright eyes, “Why doesn’t Daddy hug me
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthen?”
“He’s not used to hugging people. He’s afraid of dropping you.” Catherine secretly thought in her mind
that if it was Isabella’s child, he would definitely spoil her like a princess.
So, Daddy was afraid that she would fall.
Sophia put on a smile again and looked at Anderson in excitement, “Daddy, I’m not scared of falling.”
Anderson remained silent and the atmosphere in the car was extremely cold.
Catherine felt a numb in her heart, but she didn’t show any emotions out and said softly, “Sophia
should sleep now, otherwise you wouldn’t wake up for school tomorrow.”
Sophia felt something was wrong too. Her father really didn’t seem to like her.
She grievously laid in Catherine’s arms.
She soon fell asleep under Catherine’s comfort. The car was so quiet that they could only hear
Sophia’s sleeping breath.
She and Anderson sat next to each other.
But it was as if a galaxy was in between them, no one bothered to start a conversation. When their
eyes met sometimes, they looked disgusted at each other.
The person who broke the silence was the driver, Paul.
“Young master, we’ve reached Ziting Villa.”
Anderson got out of the car and walked away.
Catherine hugged Sophia in her arms and followed behind him. She looked pitiful as she walked in pain
with her high heels.
Paul couldn’t watch it anymore, “Ms. Johnson, let me hug Sophia for you.”
Anderson stopped his steps, and Paul thought his boss had realized his conscience.
“Are you the mother of the child or she is?”
Paul didn’t understand what he meant and said, “Ms. Johnson is.”
“Let her hug.” Anderson said coldly and left with a shadow.
Paul embarrassedly looked at Catherine and smiled, “I’m sorry, Ms. Johnson.”
Catherine didn’t care, “It’s okay, please arrange a room for us.”
Paul quickly went to order the servant.
At that moment, Sophia woke up and vaguely looked at Catherine, “Mommy, aren’t you sleeping with
Daddy?” “Mommy’s accompanying you to sleep.”
“But I want Mommy to sleep with Daddy. The daddy and mommy in the television that I’ve watched all
sleep together. Why aren’t you sleeping with Daddy then?”
Catherine frowned. She shouldn’t let Sophia watch too much television in the future.
“But Mommy wants to sleep with you.” She didn’t want to sleep with Anderson at all.
Sophia pursed her lips.
As soon as Catherine arrived in the living room with Sophia, Paul smiled and said to Sophia, “Little
Sophia, the servants has cleaned up the room. Do you want to see it?”
“Yes.” Paul went upstairs with Sophia, leaving only Catherine and Anderson in the living room.
Catherine looked at the man lying on the couch. She didn’t say anything, so Anderson remained silent
too.
Catherine’s phone suddenly rang.
Catherine looked at it and realized it was her editor, Lydia. It was almost eleven o’clock at night. It must
be urgent to call this late, so she immediately answered the call.
“October, let’s put the website updates on hold first.”
Before Catherine could speak, Lydia’s voice sounded at the other end of the call. Catherine was
stunned for a moment and asked, “Did something happen?”
“How much do you know about the situation on the Internet? Your situation now is a little difficult to deal
with. I don’t know if you’ve seen it. Someone revealed a news on the Internet that you had called male
escorts in a bar and took drugs. There are many people rushing to the website now to give bad
reviews, even the company’s software has been criticized. If it goes on, the software may even be
removed from the shelf.”
“Alright, I know it now.” Catherine hung up the call and looked at Anderson with hatred.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Anderson, what exactly do you want?”
Although she was bearing with it, her questioning sounded like she was about to cry.
Anderson got up and looked at Catherine in disdain, “It was you who did all these things. Why? Am I
the one to be blamed now?” He was the one who ruined her life. How could he criticize her so bluntly?
She recalled those years, when to live was no better than to die for her. The pain that she had
experienced was deeply engraved in her soul. Catherine trembled as tears streamed down her face,
“Yes, I did that. But do you know why I’ve ended up like that?”
“Stop making excuses. As a mother, nothing would be the reason why you took drugs!” Anderson
coldly looked at her, “You only know how to pretend to be pitiful. I thought even though you had a bad
character, but as a mother, you still loved your children. I didn’t expect that you would make such an
example for them.”
Anderson clamped his hand on Catherine’s neck with hatred and strangled her hard, “Look at your
shameful behavior, you even touch this kind of thing.”
With that, Anderson threw a stack of photos to her face.
Catherine knelt on the ground and looked at these photos scattered on the floor. The woman in the
photo looked just like her.
She looked wild and skinny, revealing her disgraceful behavior. The memories that she had deliberately
sealed up were torn open and exposed to the world.
Fear, horror and disgust… All kinds of emotions were pouring out.
The living room was so quiet that only the sound of a woman crying was heard. Anderson felt even
disgusted, “You’ve done all these things. Why are you crying now?”
“Sophia will stay here starting from now. I’m afraid that she wouldn’t learn well from you and be
corrupted by your bad examples.” Anderson said indifferently and strode upstairs.
It was not her will to do so. She didn’t want to.
When Anderson went upstairs, he stood by the window and irritably smoked his cigarettes. Then, he
went into the bathroom.
As soon as he lay in the bathtub, Paul’s anxious scream sounded outside, “Young master, Ms. Johnson
had committed suicide! There’s a lot of blood…”
