Catherine’s POV
Just as I was happy because it had all worked out, I heard my phone ring non-stop. I picked up my phone and took a look. It was Blake.
I sighed, took my phone, and quickly walked out of the office. I picked up the phone after I walked to a place with no one around.
“Hey…”
“What’s going on with you and Leo?” asked Blake over the phone.
I was prepared. However, my heart still skipped a beat when I heard his angry voice.
“Can’t you realize it’s just hype? What do you think?” I wanted to sound more assertive, but I could only hear the guilt in my voice.
“Who told you to go to him? Don’t you know who he is?” Blake said coldly.
“I went to him for help. Who knew that there would be paparazzi taking photos?” I felt so aggrieved.
“Come to my office. We’ll talk in person!” ordered Blake.
I froze and immediately refused, “No. I still have work to do. If you have anything to say to me, wait till we’re back tonight.”
“Then I’ll come to you!” His next sentence made my body shiver.
“Don’t come over. What do you want? I can’t work if you’re here!” I said.
“I’ll give you 30 minutes. Come here.” Blake asked again.
“You bastard!” I gave in. He was so good at threatening people.
After hanging up the phone, I felt extremely annoyed. I was so unwilling to be threatened like this.
However, my hands were tied. I had no choice but to go to him.
I drove to the headquarters building.
In the hall, Henry waved at me with a smile again.
“Ms. Wyatt, come upstairs with me!” Henry said politely.
I was still gloomy, so I didn’t even smile. I followed Henry upstairs.
It was still that conference room. Damn!
The corridor seemed to have been cleared out. There was no one here.
It was the same place where Blake told me that he had feelings for me yesterday.
I stood at the door and took a deep breath. Then I pushed the door open.
“I’m here. If you have anything to say, say it now.” I looked at his back and said lightly.
“Catherine, what do you need Leo for?” Blake said in a low voice, full of dissatisfaction.
I subconsciously reached out to straighten the long hair beside my ear. I replied in a calm voice, “Something about my work.”
“If so, you can come to me. Why him? Is he closed to you?” Blake walked towards me step by step. His tall figure and oppressive aura made me even more flustered.
His questions were sharp and tricky, leaving me speechless.
“He is the kids’ uncle. Why can’t I ask him for a favor?” I answered as I saw Blake approaching.
His tall body was already closing in on me. He was standing very close to me, and his slightly heavy breath gently blew into my ear.
“I am your boss, and I am the father of the kids. If you have troubles, shouldn’t I be the first person you come to?” Blake stared at me.
My eyes met his angry eyes. “I don’t want to trouble you.”
“I give you permission to trouble me.”
“Blake, can’t you be a little reasonable…”
“No!”
Blake suddenly kissed my lips directly.
I had already dodged when his lips were approaching. His lips simply brushed past my lips.
“What are you doing?” I could hardly breathe normally. He caught me off guard and kissed me again!
Blake’s slender fingers reached over and pinched my chin. He forcefully lifted my face.
I didn’t expect him to be so bold as to force me.
Just as I wanted to shake his hand off, he kissed me again. This time, I had nowhere to dodge. I was deeply kissed by him.
My breathing stopped.
I pressed my hands against his chest angrily, resisting.
I was going mad. Blake was such a bastard! This was outrageous!
He grabbed my hands with his other empty hand, not giving me another chance to move.
He controlled my hands. Right now, my back was pressed against the wall, and I was faced with his tightly pressed body. I couldn’t resist whatsoever.
He kissed me ceaselessly at will until he was satisfied. Then he loosened his grip.
“Bastard!” When I was let go, the first thing I did was raise my hand and give him a hard slap on the face. “I told you before. You are not allowed to kiss me!”
Blake knew I would be shy and angry, yet he did not expect that I would directly slap him in the face.
His face turned slightly to the side. I left distinct fingerprints on his fair cheek.
It could be told how much strength I used.
“I’m going to pretend you didn’t mean it this time. There will be no next time!” I slapped Blake, but he didn’t seem to be very angry. He just lowered his voice and warned me sternly.
“Why do you always make fun of me like this? You are so terrible.” I didn’t care about his warning at all. Right now, I was filled with shame and anger. I felt that he trampled on my self-esteem.
He hooked his thin lips. “Men can’t control themselves when they’re with the women they like. You have to know that.”
“That’s bullshit! Stop finding excuses for yourself. I’m warning you! Don’t ever do this again! Or…”
“Or?”
I wanted to say a few more harsh words to provoke him, but my mind went blank, and I couldn’t think of anything.
Damn it! His kiss made me dumb.
“Anyway, if you do this again, I will tell the kids. Don’t think they are young and ignorant. I am very important to them.” I thought about it for a moment and felt that if I didn’t say anything harsh, it would be so unfair to me. So, I defended myself with the kids.
Blake was slightly stunned. Then, he said calmly, “Your son told me yesterday that he wanted a younger brother. He was also curious about what his younger brother would look like. How about we satisfy his wish?”
“What?” I was so angry at his shamelessness that I could not speak.
I caught a glimmer of a proud smile in Blake’s eyes. He chuckled. “Alright now. Get back to work. I will take care of the scandals online.”
“Bastard!” I cursed him again, and then opened the door and left.
I hurriedly walked towards the elevator. As I walked, I still felt the urge to curse.
Blake was a complete bully! Indeed, he was my boss. He was the father of my kids. But how could he ask me over and kiss me again? And he even said that he wanted to have another kid with me. How narcissistic was he?
“Ms. Wyatt…” Henry stood next to the elevator and greeted me with a stunned expression.
But I ignored him. I decided that I would never set foot here again! Ever!
