Perhaps what I had said got on Blake’s nerves, and he instantly shot me a cold glance.
His voice was icy. “I don’t owe anyone an explanation.”
“Really? You look like you’re talking big.” I said in disbelief.
“Listen, Catherine. If you still want to see the kids, you’d better be reserved.” Blake warned.
I sneered in my heart. The kids were the only thing that he could use to threaten me.
“The children are mine. They only belong to me. Don’t you dare take them away from me!”
I didn’t know how many times I had said this to Blake today. But even so, I still felt that this bastard didn’t take it seriously.
Blake snorted in disdain and turned around to walk forward with his long legs.
As I got no response from him, I flew into a rage and caught up with him.
I reached out to stop him and said, “Blake, listen to me carefully. I brought the kids up. Other than me, they won’t get close to any strangers, even if you are the King. You’d better stop trying.”
Blake simply replied, “Don’t forget that I’m their daddy. Blood is thicker than water.”
Why was he so confident?
“Apart from the sperm, what have you done for the kids?” I said through gritted teeth and glared at him.
“You are the noisiest woman I’ve ever seen.” Blake moved around me and went straight ahead with an impatient look on his face.
This was the first time I had been said to be a noisy woman, but how could I remain silent?
I was going to lose my kids.
While we were walking forward, I had been looking for an opportunity to negotiate with Blake, but he just ignored me.
My throat became dry, and I didn’t have the strength to quarrel with him. Thus, I could only give up.
“Where are the kids? Tell me!”
I walked around the villa with Blake for a while, but I still didn’t see Noah and Hedwig. I wondered if Blake was lying to me.
Suddenly, Blake stopped and closed his mouth, looking like he was listening
to someone
I knew he was at Mind–Link.
A minute later, he recovered his usual look. I took two steps forward and asked, “Where is Hedwig?”
Blake didn’t answer but went up the marble steps to the third floor.
I followed him to the terrace on the third floor.
Blake walked forward and rested his arms on the railing, his eyes fixed on the shiny lake at the foot of the mountain.
The indifference in his eyes was replaced by softness and affection.
He pointed at the beach with his slender finger and said, “See? She’s playing there!”
I heard his words and instinctively rushed over. In fright, I tightly grabbed the railing in front of me.
I looked over and saw a man–made beach near the lake at the foot of the mountain. A small figure was running back and forth on the sand.
“Why did you take her to the lake? Don’t you know that the temperature is low near lakes in this season? Hedwig will catch a cold.”
Because I was in a bad mood at the beginning of my pregnancy and my life wasn’t stable, Hedwig was weaker than Noah when she was born.
“She is gonna be okay, right?”
Blake, who had been confident in everything and could always keep his head, showed a trace of uncertainty in his eyes when faced with my question.
“If Hedwig gets sick, I won’t forgive you! Take me down now!” I couldn’t take a risk. If Hedwig got sick, I would be very worried.
“Come with me!” With that, Blake turned and walked towards the stairs.
He couldn’t stay cool anymore but started running.
I was even more furious at him and ran after him.
In the garden outside the villa, there was a twisting path to the lake.
Both sides of the path were planted with beautiful violets, the state flower of New Jersey.
I was amazed at those flowers when I was on the terrace.
“Can you drive?”
I followed Blake to the entrance of the violet path, but I wasn’t in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery because I was worried that Hedwig might be sick. All I wanted was to hurry to Hedwig as soon as possible.
“The car can’t pass.” Blake glanced at the entrance. I knew that he was right. The violet path was only wide enough for two people. Thus, we couldn’t drive down the path to the lake.
The road to the villa was a certain distance away from the lake too.
“Close your eyes,” Blake said stonily.
I had no idea what he was going to do. Just as I was about to retort, I met his sharp gaze and subconsciously closed my eyes.
Then I heard a rustle of clothes and a familiar cracking sound of bones.
I immediately opened my eyes and was astonished by what I saw.
A large black wolf stood next to me, with its entire body covered in black shiny fur.
Its four limbs with strong muscles were stepping on the ground.
The wolf was almost up to my shoulders.
This was the first time I had seen such a tall wolf.
Only then did I realize the gap between Blake and me.
“Take my clothes and climb up!” The wolf–shaped Blake shook the hair on his neck and ordered me.
I picked up his clothes on the ground and hesitated for a moment before I mounted his back.
Just as I wrapped my arms around his neck, he immediately stomped his hind legs and dashed forward on the violet path.
With nobody on the path, Blake ran to the lake as fast as he could.
I could even feel the wind roaring in my ears, and the violets became purple streaks before my eyes.
Blake was so fast that I grabbed the hair behind his neck with fear.
The violet path was a winding road. Every time Blake made a turn, he would gently land on his toes without slowing down. As a result, I was tossed up and down, feeling like I was going to fall off his back at any
minute.
“Can you slow down? There’s no need to hurry.” I didn’t want to die here and reminded him.
“Trust me, I won’t let anything happen to you!” Blake said confidently.
I muttered to myself, ‘I don’t buy it!‘
In just a few minutes, we arrived at the lake. Blake stopped in front of a tree, and then I hurriedly jumped down from his back.
“Put down my clothes and turn around!” ordered Blake.
“I don’t want to see your body.” I snorted and put his clothes under the tree before I walked a few steps away.
After a while, the sound of footsteps on the leaves came from behind me. I turned around and found Blake had gotten dressed.
He didn’t speak to me. Instead, he stared at Hedwig and walked toward her.
