My Mate Has Two Wolves

Chapter 228 Catherine's POV

Around four in the afternoon, I heard the kids' footsteps outside in the hallway.

I had finished two pieces of work, and when I heard their voices, I was no longer in the mood for work.

I opened the bedroom door and the kids were a bit stunned when they saw me.

"Mommy." Hedwig blinked her big eyes. Then she said, "You're home?"

Noah immediately came over and asked with concern, "Mommy, are you sick again?"

I walked quickly over, crouched down, and pressed my forehead against Noah's. "See? I'm fine!"

Then, Hedwig asked curiously, "Mommy, were you fired?"

Noah rolled his eyes at Hedwig. "Daddy dares not to fire mommy. Otherwise, we will fire him!"

I grinned. "Noah, you are my little hero. No one dares to bully me because I have a good son like you. I'm counting on you, got it?"

Noah immediately reached out and touched my head. He acted like a grownup and said in a serious tone, "Mommy, I won't let anyone bully you!"

"You are my little hero!" I couldn't help kissing his sweet face. "I've been so busy and haven't checked on you lately. How's school?"

Then, Hedwig said in a loud voice, "Mommy, mommy! A girl said she had a crush on Noah! What does that mean?"

Noah glared at Hedwig fiercely. "What are you talking about? Anyway, I don't like her."

I pulled Noah toward me. "Noah, have you started dating already? You're too young for that!"

Noah quickly said with a serious face, "No, I'm not. She ran over and kissed me. That's all."

"She kissed you?" I couldn't believe the girl did so!

"Yes, she did. I did not even know her. But she said she liked me and kissed me on the face!" Noah said.

"How old is she?" I asked seriously.

"I guess she's around six." Noah also said seriously.

I felt a little helpless. "You are just a kid. And it's too early to have a girlfriend. Got it?"

"Mommy, I get it. You'll always be my favorite!" Noah answered proudly.

Hedwig pursed her lips and snorted, "All my friends say that I am much prettier than that girl!"

Noah quickly pulled her arm. "Silly girl, I think that way too!"

"Then why don't you like me?" Hedwig threw a tantrum.

"I will if you don't act like a spoiled little girl!"

"When did I act like that? I am strong and brave!" Hedwig said, unconvinced.

I froze.

When did Hedwig become strong and brave?

"Hedwig, who taught you that?"

"Patricia. She always says that I'm a strong and brave kid!" Hedwig looked smug.

"Alright, that's enough. You two have been talking too much since you came back." I was amused by the kids.

Noah grabbed my finger and shook it. "Mommy, you still don't believe me, do you?"

"I do. I believe you will choose a girl that suits you the most and will be serious about it!" I knew it was very important for Noah. I must answer him seriously.

"I'm happy that you believe me!" Noah beamed with joy.

Hedwig suddenly said slyly, "Noah, does the bet we just made still count?"

Noah was stunned to see that Hedwig had already rushed to his toy room.

"Hey, stupid Hedwig! I won't lose to you!" Noah also ran over.

I was so happy watching the kids being carefree.

My life was great, full of fun and surprises.

It was nighttime.

I was bathing the kids. Suddenly, Hedwig looked behind me and shouted with a smile, "Daddy!"

I turned around and saw Blake smiling at me. Suddenly, I remembered what happened in the afternoon, and I blushed.

"Hedwig, did you miss me?" Blake asked, crouching down and pinching her face.

"Yes! I miss you all the time!" Hedwig said in a low voice.

Blake glanced at me and asked Hedwig again, "Do you think your mommy missed me too?"

Hedwig said nothing but stared at me. I glared at Blake.

"I don't know. She didn't tell me!" Hedwig looked innocent and didn't know what to say.

I laughed.

Blake reached out and kissed Hedwig's face. "Why don't you ask her for me?"

After the kiss, Hedwig turned around and asked me seriously, "Mommy, did you miss daddy?"

"No!" I replied.

Hedwig said to Blake, "Daddy, mommy said she didn't miss you. I'm sorry about that."

Blake stared at me and said, "Are you sure you didn't miss me?"

I replied half-jokingly, "I'm bathing Hedwig. Please leave us alone, will you? Go check on your son."

Blake stood up and said to Hedwig, "After dinner, I'll take you to a fun place."

"Really? Where are we going?" Hedwig looked curious.

"A very interesting place." Then, Blake walked away.

Slowly, my heart stopped racing. I knew where Blake was going to take the kids.

And I was sure that the kids would love it.

Another day began.

In the morning, I held Hedwig's hand and went downstairs. When we sat at the breakfast table, Patricia suddenly said, "Catherine, clear your afternoon schedule. I will take you to meet my friends."

I turned back to look at Blake, and he blinked at me.

I smiled. "Patricia, I've been a little busy recently..."

"I don't care how busy you are, you have to take some time to rest. It's settled. I will ask the driver to pick you up in the afternoon. Besides, you shouldn't always be busy making money. Having more babies is what matters now." Patricia did not give me a chance to say no.

Then Hedwig turned to Patricia and asked, "What do you mean by that?"Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

Patricia smiled and said, "Well, that means you'll have a younger brother or sister. What do you think?"
