Chapter 187

  Catherine's POV

  I spent some time with the two kids for a while. Then I put Hedwig to sleep and went to take a bath.

  When I got out of the shower, I heard the sound of a car in the garden, and I knew it was Blake.

  I put on my pajamas and left the room to look for him. The moment I went to the balcony, I saw him standing there alone. With a cigarette in his hand, he seemed worried.

  I looked at the cigarette in his hand and asked, "Why are you still smoking this late at night? Is something bothering you?"

  There was a smile in his voice. "Do you care about me?"

  I was a little helpless. I said, "Yes. What happened to you?"

  "Nothing. I was just thinking about work." As he spoke, he pressed the cigarette against an ashtray aside.

  Since it was about work, my hands were tied, though I wanted to help him.

  "It's late. Go to bed!" I didn't know what else to say.

  "Cathy!" Blake suddenly stopped me.

  "Yeah?" I stopped and looked back.
