Chapter 273

Catherine's POV

I looked at Halsey in disbelief, his face full of pain.

Abigail said in a low voice, "Catherine, now you know why your father did this. He loves you as much as any father in the world."

"Is this true?" I couldn't believe it. Why? Why did this happen to me?

Halsey nodded in pain. "Yes. That's why I lost you. Cathy, I have been suffering from it. I've been looking for you for years."

"Why? How could she be so cruel? I am your daughter!" I roared.

Why? Why didn't my family like me? They even wanted to sacrifice me for my brother.

Halsey closed his eyes in pain and said, "You are my daughter. You and your brother are equally important to me. Your brother's illness was destined, and I could only accept it. However, I couldn't watch you die as well!"

I lost my strength and slumped on the sofa. My tears ran down my cheeks uncontrollably. Abigail comforted me, "Catherine, don't be sad. Now that you are back, you should spend some time with your father. He misses you very much."

I raised my head and choked, "I've got to sort things out. I need to go now!"

"Cathy... I'm so sorry," Halsey said sadly.

I ran out of the Fox's villa with my head down without looking back at Halsey.

I got into a taxi. I bit my fingers hard. That was the only way to stop me from crying out loud.

I learned the truth, and it was like a knife stabbing my heart.

I had no idea things would turn out this way.

"Miss, are you alright?" The taxi driver looked at me in concern.

I shook my head.

I was still lost by the time I got back to the hotel.

Suddenly, the phone in the room rang.

The call was made from the hotel's internal line.

I picked up the phone in surprise and heard a low male voice. "Miss, is there anything you need?"

"Blake?" I was surprised.

"You seem very familiar with my voice," Blake smiled.

"Where are you? How can you use the hotel line?" I asked in surprise.

"I'm in the lobby of the hotel!" Blake replied.

"Why are you here?" I was dumbfounded.

Did Blake follow me here?

"I'm here on a business trip, and I happen to be staying in this hotel as well."

"Really?" I was doubtful.

Blake said, "Open the door for me, I'm coming up."

I hung up the phone and rushed into the bathroom. I washed my face with cold water, but I

couldn't change the fact that my eyes were red and swollen.

Two minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

I hated to let Blake see me like this.

Blake's knock on the door became a bit rapid, and I had to open the door.

Blake was carrying a simple travel bag. He was dressed in casual clothes, which gave him the appearance of a traveler who had come for a holiday.

"What took you so long? Is there someone else inside?" Blake was unhappy.

I turned around since I didn't want him to see my red and swollen eyes. "Well, see for yourself."

"What happened to your eyes?" Blake grabbed my wrist.

"Nothing!" I lowered my head.

"Look up and let me take a look!" Blake asked.

"No! I don't want you to see me like this. Why are you here?" I asked, leaning against his

shoulder.

"I was worried about you," Blake said gently.

"I told you that I'm not a kid. There's nothing to be worried about." I said so, but I was very happy to see him.

A man who cared for me beats all the sweet talk in the world.

"Did you meet Halsey?" Blake asked.

I nodded. "Yes. I did."

"What is he like?" Blake asked.

I said in a self-mocking tone, "I don't know. I only spent a short time with him."

"Didn't you ask him why he abandoned you back then?" Blake was also curious about it.

I had the urge to cry again.

"I did, and he told me the answer. Blake, I always thought I'd hate him, but now, I can't. You know what? He didn't raise me, but he was still a good father. I want to find a reason to hate him, but I can't anymore." I was so sad.

"What exactly happened?" Blake's voice was low.

I told him everything that Halsey told me.

Blake was also surprised. "How could it be? Do you believe him?"

I said self-mockingly, "I wasn't sure about it, so I just ran away. I didn't know if he was telling me the truth, but he struck me as a nice person. He must have been looking for me."

Both Blake and I lowered our heads and did not say anything.

"I saw your mother," after a long silence, I said in a low voice.

Blake's expression changed.

I sighed, "They looked like a happily married couple to me. Blake, I couldn't say to their

faces that I wanted them to divorce. Halsey is my father after all."

Blake looked up at me and said in a self-deprecating tone, "Then I guess we'll never get

married, right?"

"We weren't married before, yet things turned out to be fine, right? We love each other. Isn't that enough?" I looked at Blake.

His eyes were full of sadness, and he held me in his arms.

I said self-mockingly, "You don't hate me. Patricia also let me stay at the lakeside villa

where I can be with the kids every day. It's good enough for me."

"It doesn't take a lot to satisfy you." Blake hugged me even tighter.

"I can't ask for more. I have your love, and it's solely for me," I smiled.

"I want nothing but to have you by my side and hug you like this." Blake kissed me after he finished speaking.

I threw myself in his arms. Right now, I wasn't thinking about anything else since he was my world.

How I wished this moment could last forever.

My fingers stroked over Blake's chest. It was not the first time we had sex, but I always enjoyed it.

We used to be in a hurry every time because we had to take care of Hedwig and Noah.

Today, it was just the two of us.

I touched Blake's body, and I couldn't bear to part from such a feeling.

I listened to his strong heartbeat. His hands were on my waist, and he held me tightly in his arms.
