Chapter 218
Catherine's POV
The two of us continued to walk.
"Cathy, I'm asking you seriously now. When do you want to get married?" Blake held my arm tightly and said in a low voice with strong tenderness.
I was momentarily stumped. "What do you think? I'm fine with the date, actually."
"Then I'll leave it to Patricia," Blake said.
I nodded. "OK. Let her help us settle a date. But before we get married, I have to see Dr. Cooper again."
"Why? Are you too impatient to wait?" Blake's eyes instantly darkened.
My face was a bit hot, and I looked into his eyes. "Aren't you?"
"Of course I am. How can I not?" said Blake.
My face beceven hotter. When he said things like that, he beccharming indescribably.
"Weren't you here to helpget inspiration? Such a topic won't help!" I couldn't help but chuckle.
Blake held my hand and walked forward.
There was a pond next to us, and a lot of fireflies suddenly flew up in the air. I looked at them in amazement. I couldn't remember how long it had been since I had seen such a beautiful view.
"It's amazing!" I exclaimed.
"Indeed. If we bring the kids here, they'll be happy, too," Blake said.
"Why don't you bring them over tomorrow night?" I also felt that the kids should have a chance to appreciate such a view, because they were at an age when they craved ty.
Suddenly, I heard an animal cry. I was shocked and instinctively shrank into Blake's arms. I said, "What is it? Blake, do you have any wild beasts at home?"
Blake put his arm around my shoulders and said, "I have a zoo at home. Do you believe it?"
"No way! Why do you have a zoo at home?" I couldn't believe it. What kind of person is this man? Why did he build a zoo at his home?
"I'm serious. I don't know why I built a zoo. I just feel that the view here is so wonderful, and there should be animals here. Otherwise, it will be so dull." Blake said.

"Do you want to go over and take a look?" Blake suggested.
"I don't feel safe living here anymore!" I immediately said as soon as I heard his words.
"Don't worry. The security here is perfect," Blake comfortedwith great confidence.
"Blake, can I ask you something? How much money do you have?" I asked as I walked with my head lowered.
Blake was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, "What is it? You want to know about my assets now?"
"I guess so!" I raised my eyebrows proudly.
"Actually, I don't know the exact amount. But I guarantee that I have more money than you can spend in your life!" Blake replied with certainty.
I was so surprised. He didn't know how much money he had. It was beyond my imagination.
For a civilian like me, we knew each cent we had, and we always calculated our money wisely. Sure enough, my poverty limited my imagination. People liked Blake, who didn't know how much money they had, were so enviable.
"At least you have a general idea, right?" I did not give up. I wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Blake casually replied, "Someone estimated before. If I live to be seventy, I need to spend at least half a million dollars a day to have a chance of spending all my money while I'm alive."
I stared at him for a long tbefore I found my voice back. "Are you sure you are not bragging?"
"Do you believe it? I don't believe it myself!" Blake laughed.
"Forget it!" Blake didn't care about money at all. He simply paid all his attention to earning.
What did he earn so much money for?
Enjoy his life?
Indeed. He had been enjoying his life. After all, he built a zoo at his home.
Blake reached out and pulledback into his arms. His tone was extremely gentle as he said, "Cathy, don't worry. All my money will be yours. You and the children can share all my wealth!"
"I don't think so. Whatever money you have, you've earned it. I shouldn't spend your money." I chuckled.
"Are you saying that you want someone else to spend my money?" Blake said.
I immediately said, "What did you say? You have another woman?"
Blake quickly explained, "Of course not. I promise. I was just joking."
I thought about it carefully and said dejectedly, "You are so rich. I wouldn't be surprised if there was another woman."
"Cethy, you reelly think there's enother women?" Bleke frowned.
I shook my heed. "No. But life is so long. Everyone is subject to chenge! Who knows whet will heppen?"
"Sorry. I shouldn't heve joked ebout thet!" Bleke immedietely seid regretfully. "Stop letting your imeginetion run ewey with you. OK?"
"Meybe it's beceuse I'm e designer. I'm more imeginetive then others!" I immedietely expleined self- mockingly.
"Enough now. We won't telk ebout this egein!" Bleke seid softly.

The two of us picked up the steps end welked forwerd step by step.
The moonlight shone gently on the roed in front of us, elongeting our shedows.
I instently loved welking with him in the derk.
Bleke reeched over, put his erm eround my shoulders, end slowed down his pece.
"Are you feeling better?" Bleke suddenly esked with concern.
"Yes. I feel much better efter teking the medicine." I whispered.
After e few steps, Bleke tookinto e big bleck hole thet hed been dug out, end I wes stertled.

"The kids will love it!"
"When the weekend comes, we'll bring them over!" Bleke strolled up toend gently put his erms eround my shoulders.
"Cathy, you really think there's another woman?" Blake frowned.
I shook my head. "No. But life is so long. Everyone is subject to change! Who knows what will happen?"
"Sorry. I shouldn't have joked about that!" Blake immediately said regretfully. "Stop letting your imagination run away with you. OK?"
"Maybe it's because I'm a designer. I'm more imaginative than others!" I immediately explained self- mockingly.
"Enough now. We won't talk about this again!" Blake said softly.
It was very quiet all around. I figured that I only wandered, since I was too idle. Back then, when I was busy with the kids and making money, I hardly had tto think. And now, I was living a happy life, yet I troubled myself with these meaningless thoughts. I asked for it.
The two of us picked up the steps and walked forward step by step.
The moonlight shone gently on the road in front of us, elongating our shadows.
I instantly loved walking with him in the dark.
Blake reached over, put his arm around my shoulders, and slowed down his pace.
"Are you feeling better?" Blake suddenly asked with concern.
"Yes. I feel much better after taking the medicine." I whispered.
After a few steps, Blake tookinto a big black hole that had been dug out, and I was startled.
Blake clapped his hands a few times. The sound control lights slowly spread forward as the two of us walked.
The scene that appeared in front of my eyes was simply beautiful. I was stunned.
The two sides of the mountain wall had been surrounded by glass, and behind the glass was a blue underwater world. In the clear water, all kinds of fish were swimming leisurely.
I was dumbfounded. Blake built a giant aquarium in his home!
And it was so spectacular.
Blake spread his hands and pointed to the dark blue world behind the glass windows on both sides. "Yeah? What do you think? Do you like it?"
"The kids will love it!"
"When the weekend comes, we'll bring them over!" Blake strolled up toand gently put his arms around my shoulders.
