As the day ended, Katherine was packing her things and saw her colleague look at her with a playful smile. “Your boyfriend is here.”
Boyfriend?
Katherine looked up at her but didn’t realize why she said that.
The colleague pointed out the window. Katherine walked over and looked down to find Theo standing there with a bouquet of roses, very eye-catching.
Seeing her colleagues’ expressions, Katherine knew that they had misunderstood.
For more than a year, Theo often took her to and from work. Her colleagues asked about their relationship before. Although Katherine denied it, no one believed her.
Right now…
Katherine didn’t feel embarrassed as soon as the thoughts she had in the morning surfaced in her mind.
Katherine hurriedly packed her things and went downstairs, walking to the car. Theo’s eyes were locked on her immediately as he looked at her with gentle eyes.
“Here to give you a ride.” He handed her the bouquet. The delicate flowers were beautiful and shone brightly.
It was the first time Katherine received such a large bouquet of flowers. She knew that Theo acted because of what she said today. Although he didn’t say anything, his joy was contagious.
Katherine reached out to take the bouquet and smiled. “Thank you.”
Theo opened the door for her and said, “I have notified the nanny not to cook. Let’s go to the grocery store later and cook some delicious food ourselves.”
Katherine had no objection. “Okay.”
The two went to the grocery store to buy things together. To be precise, it was Theo selecting and Katherine watching.
ate also cooked, but her cooking skills were far from Theo’s. The children were just over a year old and they were quite picky when it came to food. They liked Theo’s cooking.
“Is there any milk powder? Do you want to grab two cans and keep them in the house?” Theo asked suddenly.
“There are still some left.”
With that said, Theo already arrived in the milk powder area and selected meticulously.
Katherine looked at his slender figure and serious expression and was deeply moved.
With such a father taking care of them, Felix and Merry would surely be happy, just like their nicknames.
Theo never disliked her, so what did she have to worry about?
The two bought some things for the children, and finally returned home with a big bag.
As soon as the door opened, Katherine heard the sound of chairs moving and then heard the sound of bells approaching. Merry ran over and hugged Theo’s leg. “Theo.”
Katherine was used to seeing her daughter neglect her whenever she saw Theo. She grabbed the things from Theo and brought them into the house.
Theo bent down and squeezed Merry’s small face. “Did you miss me?”
Merry was not only cute, but also looked very much like Katherine. Every time Theo saw her, it was as if he saw Katherine as a child that his heart almost melted.
“Yes, I did.” Merry hugged Theo’s arm and quietly glanced at Katherine, who walked into the kitchen. She then leaned close to Theo’s ear and whispered, “I want cake.”
Her words were not very clear, and she spoke very slowly. But her voice was soft and she was cute, which made him unable to say no to her.
Theo laughed and tapped on her small nose. He had no choice but to say, “The only thing you know is cake. I already bought it for you. Let’s have it after dinner, okay?”
Merry was very happy. Her big round eyes were bright, and she nodded in response. “Okay.”
Theo held her in his arms and watched Katherine cook in the kitchen, feeling happier than he ever was.
Although the children belonged to Jacob, from the moment they were born, he treated them as his children. In Theo’s eyes, they were his children.
As long as Katherine promised to be with him, then he would have the right.
With Theo here, the house was even more lively. It wasn’t easy raising two children by herself. Generally, if Katherine wanted to play with Merry, then there was no way for her to take care of Felix. But playing with Felix was too taxing on her brain.
Felix was not very talkative and a little introverted, but especially liked to build models. The difficulty involved with his models increased, and Katherine was no longer able to help…
Yes, she was not as intelligent as her son.
Katherine couldn’t manage it, but Theo was able to do a good job. He built models with Felix while playing Barbie with Merry.
Katherine’s uncertainties completely disappeared when she saw this scene.
Even if it was just for her children’s sake, she should find a father for them. No matter how difficult it was for her to fall in love, she couldn’t ignore her children’s needs.
Theo would be a good father and husband.
Perhaps it was because of this idea, Katherine surprisingly dreamed of Jacob that night.
In the dream, Jacob still treated her with an indifferent attitude. “Katherine, you dared to give birth to my children in secret. You are not worthy of having my children.”
Katherine’s face turned pale.
“Since they are children of the Murray family, I should be the one to raise them.”
In the dream, Jacob had someone hold her down and then took the children away. The children’s cries made Katherine extremely sad.
