Chapter 207
Blake's POV
Noah blinked his big eyes and quickly walked down. Patricia immediately put him on her lap, pinched his face, and then pinched his arms. "Noah, you're so thin. Don't you like eating?"
Noah immediately shook his head and said, "Patricia, I'm not thin at all. I don't want to become chubby. That way, no girls will like me!"
Patricia was instantly amused by Noah. She pointed to me and said, "See? Noah is the younger version of you. He already knows that he has to be a ladies' man at such a young age!"
I didn't remember saying such naive things when I was a kid at all.
"I called Leo. Maybe he'll be here later." I said.
"Really?" Patricia was excited. "I haven't seen him for quite a long time."
Emerson pulled a long face. "He doesn't have to be here if he doesn't want to. No one is begging him to come here."
Patricia looked at Emerson a little crossly and said, "It's all your fault. Why did you quarrel with him back then? So what if he chose to be a star? When you see him later, don't mention what happened back then."
Emerson instantly stopped talking.
Hedwig asked happily, "Daddy, will Leo be here? I miss him a little."
Patricia hurriedly said happily, "I miss him, too. Hedwig, what if Leo doesn't come here?"
"Then I'll call him and ask him to come and see me. I'm sick! I want him to bring me a gift!" Hedwig immediately coughed after she finished speaking.
Hedwig's smart look instantly amused everyone. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
With everyone's expectations, the roar of a sports car came from outside.
"Is it Leo?" Hedwig threw everything in her hand and ran out the door.
Seeing that, I quickly went after Hedwig. She was about to go downstairs, and I brought her back. "Hedwig, stay here. You'll fall!"
Hedwig blinked her big eyes and looked at the tall figure walking over from the parking lot beside the garden.
"Leo!" Hedwig immediately shouted happily.
"Hedwig, are you waiting for me? Good girl. See what I got you!" Leo said, carrying a big bag of new toys for her. "I specially picked them for you. Do you like them?"
"Hey! There are so many! Thank you, Leo! I like them so much!" Hedwig immediately pulled the big bag into her arms. "Are they all for me?"
"Yes!"
"None of these are for Noah, right?" Hedwig instantly felt that she was being valued.
Leo immediately took his hands off his back. "His toys are over here!"
Noah quickly ran over and said, "Let me see! What are these?"
"The most dazzling models of the sports car series. It cost me a lot!" Leo said fawningly.
"Thank you, Leo!" Noah's eyes lit up.
I glanced at Leo and then signaled him with my eyes. Only then did Leo see the two seniors sitting on the sofa in the parlor. His face instantly sank.
Catherine, who was standing at the side, did not have a chance to speak. When she saw Leo, she smiled and greeted him.
The corners of Leo's mouth curled up. Then he walked in front of Patricia and Emerson and greeted them in a low voice.
Patricia quickly sized Leo up and said, "Well, you didn't get thinner. My grandson has grown up!"
Leo went speechless for a while. Then he said lightly, "It has been almost six years. How can I not grow up?"
"Leo, I watch your movies every day. You're so handsome!" Patricia quickly smiled.
Leo looked a little embarrassed. He said, "No way. Patricia, you really saw all the movies I was in?"
"I did. Your acting skills are excellent. I am proud of you!" said Patricia with a smile.
"But there were a lot of make-up scenes in my movies..." Leo lowered his voice.
Patricia punched him. "So what? They were just movies. Besides, you are an adult. I understand!"
Emerson coughed. "Leo, I've thought it through. I won't stand in your way anymore. You can do whatever you want."
Leo quickly said, "Thank you, Emerson, for having my back!"
"But Leo, when will you find your mate? Listen, it doesn't matter if your mate is human," Patricia looked at Leo and said. "Aren't you envious that Blake has two cute kids?"
Leo shrugged and said in a slightly upset tone, "I am not as lucky as Blake. He found the love of his life effortlessly, and she happened to give birth to his two cute babies five years ago."
I was helping Hedwig unpack her toys. Hearing Leo's teasing tone, I looked up and rolled my eyes at him.
Dowen came over to tell us that dinner was ready.
Catherine led the kids to wash their hands, and I came into the bathroom to help as well.
I held Catherine and washed my hands together with her. Catherine tensed up, and she hurriedly said, "Blake, stop it!"
"Stop what?" I pretended I didn't understand. I just liked to tease her and see her blushing.
Catherine hastily washed her hands and threw the water on her hands at my face. "This!"
I dodged quickly, but there were still many drops of water on my face. I couldn't help but chuckle. How naughty she was.
Catherine only dared to mess around with me like this when Patricia wasn't present. As soon as Catherine entered the dining room, she immediately returned to a serious face.
Catherine's POV
Patricia asked Leo a lot of questions, and she did most of the talking during the meal.
After dinner, Patricia and Emerson went back to the villa on the mountainside to rest.
It was already late, and I put Hedwig to sleep. Then I decided to talk to Blake about my biological parents.
I pushed open my bedroom door and gently placed my hand on the door of Blake's room.
I pushed it open and saw Noah sleeping on the bed. I bit my lip and went in.
Hearing the sound of water coming from the bathroom, I figured that Blake might be taking a shower.
What should I do?
Shall I wait here for him to come out?
Or shall I come back here later?
Just as I was hesitating, the bathroom door opened, and Blake came out with a white bath towel around his waist. He had a perfect figure. His body was strong, beefy, and exuded a strong smell of hormones.
"Still awake?" Blake came out. He took a towel and casually wiped his short hair. His whole body was still wet, making his skin healthier and more lustrous.
I didn't know where to look for a moment. I nodded nervously. "Yes. I have a favor to ask!"
"Wait for me in the study. I'll be right there." Blake said in a low voice.
I heaved a sigh of relief secretly and nodded. I opened the door and walked out.
