Chapter 313 Catherine's POV hs "Cathy, did you go to the hospital for a check-up? What did the result say?" The gauze wrapping my head had been taken off. Patricia immediately askedwith concern.
"Thanks for asking, Patricia. The doctor said my wound was healing well," I replied softly.
"That's good. I'm so relieved to hear that," Patricia said happily.
Meanwhile, Nick drove back. He parked the car at the door and entered the parlor.
"Catherine, have you just cback as well?" Nick asked with a smile.
yes," I said expressionlessly. Then I said to Patricia, "patricia, I'll go upstairs and take a shower. I'll leave Noah and Hedwig with you here." "Alright." Patricia nodded.
I turned and went upstairs.
Nick shook off the snow on his shoulder and said, "It's snowing again.
It's freezing! Patricia, I'm going upstairs to put on another coat." Patricia said, "Why didn't you put on enough clothes? You knew it was cold outside. What if you get sick?" Nick grinned. "Patricia, don't worry.
I'm strong. I won't get sick easily." Nick turned around and followedupstairs.
I somehow had a feeling that Nick went
upstairs on purpose. He was deliberately making more contact with me. = I saw from the corner of my eye that Nick was following behind me. I frowned.
I hoped that I was overthinking. It was nothing but a coincidence that he and I both went upstairs at the stime.
I walked faster. Fortunately, Nick didn't stopor talk to me. I hurried into the bedroom.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe door blocked his gaze, and I was relieved.
What the heck was Nick thinking? I was Blake's mate, chosen by the Moon Goddess. Nick was not trying to useto hurt Blake, was he?
Blake had sbusiness to deal with.
He calledand said he would be hlate. — I remembered that Blake toldthat he was going to tellsomething tonight. So, after dinner, I sat in the bedroom and turned on my laptop, ready to work while waiting for him.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door. 1 becalert. Who could it be at this time? It was already past ten. Noah and Hedwig were already asleep. Thinking of this, I stood up warily.
"Catherine, it's me." Nick's anxious voice cfrom the other side of the door.
It was Nick. It was already late at night.
| What did he want? "What's up?" 1 didn't want to open the door, so I asked him while keeping the door shut.
"Catherine, do you have a laptop? I need to check an important document right now. But I cback in a hurry and didn't bring my laptop with me.
May I borrow yours for a minute? I need to send the document now," Nick begged. He sounded very sincere.
His request sounded reasonable. T had no reason to refuse him, so I opened the door. Nick was standing outside in a gray sleeping robe.
"You can go to Dowen. I'm sure he can be of help," I said.
please. If you have one, can [use it for awhile? It'll just be a couple of minutes. I just need to send an email;" Nick begged again.
Nick looked genuinely anxious. I frowned and wanted to turn him down.
However, I supposed that he had already seen the laptop on my desk when I opened the door.
"Fine. Wait for a second while I save my work on the laptop." I'had no choice but to agree.
"Thank you!" Nick said gratefully.
I turned around and went inside the room. I saved the draft, closed the laptop, and handed it to Nick.
"Catherine, if it's OK with you, may I go inside while sending the email?"
Nick said. Then he explained, "I was | planning on doing it on the balcony, but it's freezing outside." ~~ | "Maybe you should take the laptop back to your room. I don't need it now anyway," I denied him without hesitation. On no ground would I want Blake to get the wrong idea.
"sure. I'll give it back to you ina few minutes," said Nick, turning back to his room.
My laptop didn't have any personal information or important documents. I agreed to let Nick have it only after making sure that there was no Blake's information on it. There was nothing important on the laptop.
However, I was still a little anxious.
The few minutes Nick had the laptop seemed like hours to me.
While I was walking around the room anxiously, Nick knocked on the door.
I had a thick coat draping over my shoulders and opened the door.
"I'm done. Thank you, Catherine," Nick said gratefully.
"Don't mention it. Good night." T just wanted to end the conversation as soon as possible.
"Good night," Nick said.
"Good night," I responded to him. It was hard to deal with someone like Nick who always had a gentle smile on his face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was already past eleven o'clock, yet Blake hadn't been back yet. I waited for him while playing on my phone.
Suddenly, someone twisted the door lock and opened the door. It was Blake.
"Why are you still up? It's already this late." As soon as Blake entered the door, he sawlooking up at him.
I whispered, "I can't sleep until you cback." He casually took off his coat and threw it on the sofa. Then he smiled and asked, "Why did you wait forto cback?" I missed him, and that was all.
However, his words made it sound like [ was eager to do something with him. I blushed. "I'm used to going to sleep with you by my side. I'll get worried whenever you aren't around." He walked to the bedside and sat down,
propping his hands on both of my sides. With such a gesture, it seemed like he was hugging me. REE He gently kissed my forehead. "I'll go and take a shower. Wait for me." His words madeblush more.
"You must be tired after a busy day.
Take a shower and cto bed soon," I said quickly.
Blake was so worn out. I couldn't bear to keep him away from having rest, though I wanted to have sex with him.
He reached out and pinched my cheek.
Then he got up and walked to the bathroom.
Ten minutes later, he cout wearing a loose gray robe.
His hair was messy, making him look even more charming.
[ watched him walk over and N whispered, "You must be tired. Cto bed and sleep early." "I'm not tired." Blake looked atwith his eyes, and I lowered my head shyly.
"Well, I am," I made an excuse and changed the topic. "You said you were going to tellsomething. You can tellnow. I'm all ears." Blake looked a little disappointed, but he still answered me, "When you calledtoday, did you think I had forgiven Abigail?" [ was stunned for a second, and then I nodded. "Yes. You didn't sound mad. I thought you would be furious when
you knew that she was with us." "Sphotos were sent toyesterday. In the photos, Marc was hugging a woman intimately. I finally know why Abigail insisted on rejecting Marc back then. Marc betrayed her, his mate. That was why she chose to leave," Blake said slowly.
"What?" I was utterly shocked. There were so many secrets! "T don't want to believe it either.
However, my sanity says otherwise. I know that is the truth, so, I will forgive her." Blake leaned over and buried his head in my arms. He was like a kid, waiting for my comfort and hug.
