Catherine's POV
Blake was sitting and chatting with his friends. I walked over to greet Benjamin and Howard.
Then I shook hands with Eda with a smile.
Just then, I noticed that Cedrick's gaze had been drifting in another direction, so I followed his gaze.
Then I smiled and asked, "Mr. Lawrence, do you know Jessica?"
Cedrick nodded. "She worked with my company before. I'll go and say hello to her."
When I heard that he was going to take the initiative to go over, I was instantly overjoyed. "I see!"
Cedrick brought a glass of wine and walked over to Jessica.
Cedrick said something to Jessica, and she stood up excitedly. Then Cedrick returned to us.
Although I was curious, I held back my curiosity and did not ask.
Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Cedrick's assistant talking to Jessica, and then Jessica picked
up her purse and left the venue.
Cedrick suddenly stood up and said, "I have something to deal with, so I have to leave now."
"I'd like to stay a little longer. You can go ahead," said Benjamin.
"Suit yourself." Cedrick snorted and turned to leave.
Shortly after Cedrick left, Eda suddenly turned to look at Benjamin. "Did Mr. Lawrence drive here by
himself?"
Benjamin nodded quickly. "Yes."
"Then can you take me to the company? I just told my driver to leave," said Eda.
Benjamin immediately nodded and said, "Of course. Do you want to go now?"
"Yes. I've had enough fun. It's time to get back to work. King Blake, Ms. Wyatt, thank you for inviting
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme," Eda smiled and stood up.
After the crowd left, Blake lay lazily on the sofa, and Melinda walked over with wine.
"King Blake, thank you for your strong support. Today's launch was very successful. The new products
will be a hit. I hope I live up to your promotion." Melinda was very polite and respectful.
"Melinda, so far, it turns out that I've got good taste for the right people. Of course, all of this is thanks
to Catherine. She recommended you to me," Blake smiled and praised.
The smile on Melinda's face grew bigger. "Yes, I am very grateful to Catherine."
"Don't say that, Melinda." I smiled and looked at Melinda.
Hedwig grinned and grabbed Melinda's hand. "Melinda, nice to see you again."
Melinda immediately smiled. She squatted down and stroked Hedwig's hand. "Hedwig, do you want me
to take you out again?"
"Yes, Melinda. The quiet one over here is my brother, Noah!" Hedwig quickly pulled Noah's clothes and
introduced him with a smile.
Noah immediately said, "I'm not quiet! I knew who she was."
I chuckled.
Melinda immediately felt a little sheepish. "Catherine, take care of the kids. I'll go and entertain the
others!"
"Go ahead, Melinda. The kids are a bit tired. We may have to take them away now. I'll leave the rest to
you!" I knew my kids were used to taking naps, and now they were drowsy.
"It's OK. You guys can go. I will take care of the rest."
When Blake, I, and the kids left the venue, we attracted everyone's attention.
The launch today would be a blast.
The kids were sent back to take a nap by Blake. I wanted to go back to the company for some warp-
ups.
However, I was stopped by Blake in the car.
"Come with me to my office," Blake said domineeringly.
I looked at him strangely. "Why should I go to your office? I still have work to do."
"I'll call Emily over later. I want to confront her face-to-face," said Blake immediately.
When I heard that he wanted to call Emily over, my expression stiffened. However, I decided not to get
out of the car.
"Alright. I would like to hear how you are going to confront her," I said lightly.
He held me in his arms and said, "Hide later and let me ask her."
"Why should I hide?" I was dissatisfied, because I disdained to do anything sneaky.
Blake chuckled. "If you want to know the truth, be good and do as I say."
"Fine. I'll do as you say." I could only make some sacrifice in exchange for the truth.
When the car that we were in headed toward the headquarters building of the group, Blake's phone
rang.
"It's Patricia, my grandmother." Blake looked at me with a smile in his eyes. "She probably already
knows about the kids."
I pushed him away and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Answer it!"
Blake immediately pressed his phone to his ear. "Patricia."
"Are you hiding something big from me?" Patricia's furious tone on the other end of the line made me
tremble.
"Patricia, let me explain..." Blake wanted to explain.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I don't want to listen. I'm at the airport right now with your grandfather. Come and pick us up later."
After saying this, Patricia hung up.
Blake was slightly stiff. I had been observing his expression the entire time. Seeing how shocked he
was, I couldn't help but ask nervously, "What is it?"
Blake put down his phone and turned to look at me seriously. "Patricia is very straightforward. If she
says something that makes you feel unhappy, you can complain to me."
"You can just tell me that your grandmother might dislike me. It might be easier for me to accept." I
crossed my arms in front of my chest, looking calm and composed.
"Relax. No matter how much Patricia dislikes you, she won't do anything to you. After all, you have two
lovely kids," Blake smiled and comforted me.
"What if your grandmother is the same as you were before? What if she wants the kids only?" It was a
serious matter.
"Then scold me." His big hand reached over. He wanted to pull my hand, but I dodged it.
"What's the point of scolding you? Though I didn't come from a complete family, I don't want to be
aggrieved!" I felt kind of helpless because of his words.
"I know. I won't let you feel aggrieved. I will take your side and fight Patricia to the end." Blake held my
hand tightly.
In my eyes, the conflict between the elder and the younger generation was likely to end in tragedy, and
it would not come to an end until one side compromised.
Blake looked into my eyes and sighed. "I've never won a fight with Patricia."
I withdrew my hand from his large palm. I said coldly, "It'll end up the same this time, right?"
"Cathy..."
"Let me get out!" I said coldly.
"It hasn't happened yet. Why should we be so pessimistic? Maybe Patricia will like you very much."
Blake grabbed my wrist again. Then he said, "I don't think we need to quarrel about it."
