Catherine’s POV
Noah raised his chin slightly. His face was delicate and he looked cool. “Leo, listen up. My first request is that you are not allowed to say anything that my mommy hates ever again. You are not allowed to bully my mommy. You are not allowed to make her angry. And my second request is…”
“Wait a minute, Noah. You said three sentences. Weren’t these three requests already?”
Noah blinked his big eyes. Then he tilted luis head and thought carefully. “Well, you may be right.”
“Noah, the three requests are all for your inominy. Why don’t you ask for something else? For example, you can askto buy you a toy you like, or take you somewhere you want…” Leo quickly persuaded Noah.
Noah’s big eyes instantly lit up when he heard the word “toy”.
Leo looked at Noah expectantly.
But then Noah said, “No, I won’t change my requests. I can ask my dad to buytoys. He has plenty of money, and he can taketo anywhere we want.” After sserious consideration, Noah stuck to his proposals.
I looked at Leo proudly. Then I walked over, held Noah’s face, and gave him a big kiss. “Noah, I love you so much!”
“Mommy, I want a kiss too!” Hedwig immediately ran over, competing for my attention.
I held Hedwig’s face and gave her a big kiss, too. She was instantly happy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeo, who was next to us, pulled a long face. He stared at Noah with sfrustration. “You brat! Just wait and see. If we have another gand you lose, those three requests will not stand.”
“Fine. You can’t scare me. But for now, you have to follow the rules of the bet. You are not allowed to say anything that makes my mommy unhappy. Otherwise…”
“Yes?” Leo curled his thin lips.
“Otherwise, you will have to compensate my mommy for her mental damage. For every tshe’s unhappy because of you, you will have to give her … one million dollars!” Noah said loudly.
“What?” Leo’s eyes widened. He looked at Noah, as if Noah were a robber.
Things were getting too far. I said to Noah a little harshly, “Noah, you scared Leo. The bet you had did not count. Got it?”
Noah shrugged and immediately nodded with a smile. “OK, mommy. Leo, the bet is off. And the requests I made don’t count. Did I scare you?”
“That’s not going to happen! I was the one who wanted to bet with you. So, of course, your proposals count. I have never broken my word,” said Leo generously.
“Noah, hurry up and thank Leo. He is such a man of his word. You have to learn from him from now on, OK? You can’t say things casually. You should always keep your promises, and you can’t cheat no matter what.” I suddenly changed my attitude to agree with Leo and make the bet stand.
“Blake, say something. I have a hunch that they have setup!” Leo seemed to have sensed something, and he hurriedly asked Blake for help.
Yet Blake’s expression didn’t change much. “It’s not their fault that you’re not smart enough. Let’s get down. Tto
eat.”

I didn’t expect that Blake would side withand Noah. Anyway, he was only doing this for Noah’s sake. It had nothing to do with me.
Somehow, I thought of his drunken words from last night. His words seemed like he had been hurt by swoman.
I felt stifled. Then I made up my mind. Whatever Blake did, I wouldn’t care. He would be invisible to me.
The five of us sat at the long table quietly. Today’s dinner was very sumptuous, and my two kids were enjoying it so much that their lips were greasy.
I lowered my head and ate silently. Meanwhile, I was thinking about what Alpha Wyatt had said to me. My body beca bit stiff, and I ate slower and slower.
“Mommy, are you full already? That’s not good. If you beceven skinnier, you can’t attract anyone anymore,” Noah immediately reminded me.
His words pulledback. Only then did I realize that I got distracted unknowingly.
I quickly put a piece of bread on Noah’s plate and said, “Mommy is fine. You should eat more.”
“Mommy, you forgot that I don’t like whole-wheat bread. Daddy, here you are.” Noah immediately looked at Blake.
I glared at Noah. He got carried away.
Meanwhile, Leo suddenly said, “Blake, you don’t like it either? Then hand it over to me. I like it…”
I thought that Blake wouldn’t take the bread. Unexpectedly he ate it in one bite.
Somehow, I felt my heart beat faster, and I was sure that I was blushing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBlake continued to eat calmly.
I had been absent-minded a minute ago, but now I was full of spirit. Why did Blake do this? He was getting on my
nerves.
Finally, the meal ended quietly. After sitting for a while, Leo stroked Noah and Hedwig’s heads and was about to leave.
“Leo, wait. I have a question. Is it fun being a star?” Hedwig suddenly grabbed and shook one of Leo’s fingers.
Leo was stunned for a second. Then he squatted down and looked at Hedwig. He smiled and said, “Why did you ask? Do you want to be a star?”
“Yes! I want to be a star. I also want to be on TV every day. Can I?” Hedwig asked seriously.
“You need to know a lot of things to be a star. Tell me, what do you know?” asked Leo as he looked at Hedwig.
“I can sing, and I can dance…” Hedwig immediately replied, she wanted to continue, but these were the only two things she knew so far.
“Really? Then sing a song for me. If you’re qualified, I’ll make you a star,” Leo teased her with a smile.
“OK! Then I’ll sing… Wait, what songs should I sing? I don’t even remember the lyrics…” Hedwig was so nervous. She opened her mouth a few times, but she couldn’t sing anything. She was so anxious that she blushed.
Blake immediately walked over and held her in his arms. “Hedwig, being a star isn’t easy. Don’t be a star, OK!
“But I want to be on TV. I want to be spotlighted.” Hedwig immediately hugged Blake, feeling bad for her failure just
nour She nouted and it seemed that she would burst into tears at any second.
