Chapter 17
Catherine’s POV
I had just finished eating when Felix walked over. “Leave the lunch box to me. I’ll wash it after taking it back.”
“I was just about to get it washed,”
“No need.” He cleaned up the lunch box and wiped the table. Then he stood up straight and smiled at me, “I’ll have the kids back around 9:30. That’s why I asked them to come over to my place. Besides, they would probably keep asking you who their father was if they were here.”
I froze for a moment. “Did they ask again when they were at your place? After all, they had asked a few times on the way back, and you had brushed them
“yes, but don’t worry, I have already calmed them down. They won’t mention it when they come back.” He looked at me with his gentle eyes. I blushed and said to him, “Thank you so much. I’m so glad that you are here.”
“Don’t mention it. I guess you need some privacy. I’ll go back. Good night.”
1 sent him to the door. “Good night.”
Looking at Felix’s back, I couldn’t help liling him a little more. He was so considerate. On the way back, the kids kept asking who James, the crazy woman had mentioned was, and who their father was. I was so glad that Felix was there, or I would have had no idea how to explain it to the kids. Besides, Felix could take the kids‘ minds off the café for a while. I had to admit that he really had a way with kids.
Once again, I liked him more.
I closed the door and picked up my phone to call James. Felix reminded me, and lie was right. I need some privacy right now.
1 had to make it clear to James before the kids came back.
As I called him, I thought about the afternoon at the café Amy’s arrogant face and swearing words were way too much!
I didn’t care what she said about me, but I would never allow her to say anything about my kids!
Just as the phone rang twice, James picked up the phone.
I snapper and shouted, “James, get your wuran under control, OK? A woman who claims to be your girlfriend, Amy, called my kids bastards in front of so many people this afternoon!”
When I said diese words, I felt like I couldn’t breathe.
I held my chest, telling myself to calm down.
“Who? Amy? She is not my girlfriend.”
“Who cares? Tonly care about the kids! I don’t care what your relationship is with that woman. Under no circumstances should she insult my kids like
“That’s out what I’m saying …
I was so angry that my voice cracked “I don’t want to see you ever again! And you won’t get to see the kids anymore.”
wanted to say something, but immediately hung up the phone.
The more I spoke, the more I remembered the situation at that time. It was just so infuriating
Alier I hung up the phone, I sat on that soita al supported my forehead with my hands to calm myself down

I jooked at the screen, which went dark, and snorted. I tight, that’s so ridiculous: Shouldn’t be care about me or the kids in the first place? He just wanted to argue that he had nothing to do with it. After eight years, he still doesn’t believe in me. It is still so cocky and only cares about what he cares
Not long after, I heard a harsh braking sound outside the door I vigilantly ran to the French window and lifted the curtain to look over, only to see lames coming out of the car.

I didn’t know why my heart was beating so fast. What was he doing here?
I even prayed in my heart that he wouldn’t press the doorbell
Since I was not sure if I would open the door.
I put down the curtain and rubbed my face. I thought, Catherine, what are you thinking? Do you expect an explanation from him?
Regardless or not, the kids had already been hurt by that damn woma
Oh, no Catherine, please calm down.
As I walked around, 1 persuaded myself and listened to the movements outside.
I couldn’t help but lift the curtain again. I saw him coming over!
1 begged in my heart that he would stop, yet my prayer didn’t work.
He was already standing at the door.
He raised his hand and was about to press the doorbell. Seeing that, I was extremely uneasy.
Suddenly, he glanced at the side of the curtain, and the sharp look in his eyes startled me. I felt like he saw me.
I subconsciously covered my mouth.
My heart was beating wildly.
There suddenly came the sound of banging on the door, which echoed the sound of my heart beating completely
“Catherine, I know you are there. Open the door.” James continued banging on the door. “I see you by the curtain, Catherine. Open the door.”
Sure enough, he saw me.
“Get lost!” I mustered my courage and roared, my voice trembling
“Open the door and listen to me.”
“I don’t want to!”
My kids suffered grievances in the afternoon. They asked me where their father was. They asked me why they didn’t have a father. All the people at present were whispering, talling about us. At the thought of all of this, I was furious!
The banging suddenly stopped, and I was a little dismissive. I thought, that’s it? He just left? He is so full of himself!
“Listen to me, Catherine,” he said.
His voice suddenly came from the window. I was startled and hurriedly hid behind the curtain. “I don’t want to. From now on, stay away from me and the
Amy is really not my girlfriend. I had no idea she would do this!”
“Piss off! Piss off forever! The lads don’t need you!” I cried out my frustration in anger.
“No! Catherine, open the door. Just listen to me,”
“I don’t want to hear any of it. Piss off!”
“Come on! Don’t be like this, Catherine! He sounded a little helpless and aggrieved.
“Catherine, you have to listen to what I want to say. Being stubborn will only cause a misunderstanding…”
I interrupted him, able to bear it any longer, “Get lost! Before I call the pollcel”
“You… You are so unrestabile!”
Everything suddenly quieted down. Not long after, the sound of a sports car starting rang out. I stood up and lifted the curtain to look. He left, Just like that?
He didn’t look sark
as he drove away in a carefree manner
The good–looking sports car made an annoying noise.
I angrily put down the curtain and cursed myself, “Catherine, are you expecting him to grovel at you? Back then, he was so complacent, and he didn’t talk

to you for three months. Not a single word! Have you forgotten all this? How can you still expect him to explain to you patiently? You are so ridiculis, Catherine.”
At this time, the doorbell rang again.
