Chapter 5


    “Postpartum depression.”


    Without any defense, he felt a severe pain in an instant. Anderson couldn’t tell whether it was his leg or


    somewhere else that was aching. He repeated imusibly, “Postpartum depression, that’s impossible…”


    The man who had always been calm seemed to have lost his mind as he was devoured by fear.


    The sound of a weeping woman sounded harsh in his ears and he felt his heart throbbing in pain.


    “Mr. rk, does this illness sound familiar to you?” Lincoln sneered, “May I ask if you have forgiven that


    man, Mr. rk?”


    The smile on Lincoln’s face was even obvious, “The man who had caused your mother, who suffered


    from postpartum depression, tomit suicide by jumping off a building.”


    Anderson stepped back as he was slightly frightened on the spur of the moment when he saw the smile


    on Lincoln’s face.


    Lincoln looked at him and put away his smile. He regained his indifference, “Sophia and I don’t have a


    father in the past, and we won’t have it in the future either. Even if we have, it wouldn’t be you.”


    “I didn’t hurt her.” As she cried, her emotions gradually became worse. Lincoln quickly turned around and


    grabbed Sophia’s hand, “Come down here, Mommy needs to take her medicine.”

    Sophia was crying so hard that she couldn’t catch her breath, but she still reached out her little hand and


    crawled out from Catherine’s embrace to hug Lincoln. His movement was so smooth that it seemed like


    he had done it countless times.


    Catherine looked at the man standing at the door as her tears streamed down. She was so demented


    that she grabbed his cor, “Anderson, I hate you!”


    “I hate you so much!”


    “Why did you not trust me? Why did you hurt my parents and caused them death? Why?” Anderson’s


    frightened look reflected in her red and teary eyes.


    “You’vepletely ruined my life. I shouldn’t have loved you.” Catherine suddenly knelt down. She


    tightly hugged her legs and sobbed, “This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have saved Isabe. I shouldn’t have


    loved you. It’s my fault. I know I’m wrong now. Dad, mom, pleasee back…”


    Anderson tried to bend over and pull her up, but he didn’t have any strength when he stretched out his


    hand to grab her. It seemed as if his whole body had been drained.


    “Honey, let’s go to a happy ce together. Your grandparents are there and they’ll love you two a lot…”


    After she had cried enough, Catherine got up and walked towards the window. She stretched out her


    arms and made a hugging action while pping her hands, “Let’s go, Mommy will take you to Grandpa


    and Grandma.”


    “Don’t bully my child. Hit me if you want.”


    Anderson leaned on the doorframe dispiritedly. Where did her pride go?


    Where was her pride as the daughter of the Johnson family?


    He had thought that she would receive the punishment that she deserved in prison. He even thought that


    she would die in there, but he didn’t expect that she would give birth to his children in prison at all that


    they ended up in the current situation.


    Anderson didn’t know how he left. In the car, he kept thinking about the words of child that had his blood


    flowing in him, “You’ve killed all your rtives, so we aren’t your family anymore. I know your identity and


    that you have the ability to take us back, but I will never admit you as my father.”


    The child’s gaze was firm. Although he was young, his words were even more matured than that of an


    adult. Why did it be like this? Why?


    After a long moment, Anderson punched against the car. The Rolls Royce was dented in an instant and


    the bodyguards beside Anderson looked at him while trembling.


    One of them boldly asked, “Mr. rk, why don’t we take her back with you?”


    Anderson coldly nced at them.


    “No need.”


    The bodyguards saw Anderson’s mood turning worse now.


    After Anderson had left, Lincoln ran over to hug Catherine and murmured, “Don’t be afraid, Mommy. Me


    and Sophia will always be here for you. We won’t leave you.”


    After a while, Catherine had finally calmed down. She passionately looked at little Lincoln.


    “Sophia, go get some warm water and take Mommy’s medicine here. I’ll put Mommy to sleep.”


    After Catherine fell asleep, Lincoln looked at the empty door frame. He checked for the handyman’s


    contact online and called them here to install a new door.


    Then, he went back to the bedroom andy next to Catherine with Sophia. When Catherine woke up


    again, she saw these two children sleeping beside her and she felt much calmer. She was d that they


    were still here.


    Lincoln immediately opened his eyes as he felt someone moving. When he saw that Catherine had


    woken up, he put on a joyful smile on his face.


    Catherine felt bad, “I’m sorry, honey. Let’s leave this ce, okay? Mommy will take you and your sister


    abroad, and we shall nevere back again.”


    “Mommy, you said that escaping was the most cowardly and pointless action.” Lincoln held her hands,


    “He already knew about our existence. With the rk family’s capability, he will be able to find us


    anywhere if he wants to.”


    Lincoln was right. With Anderson’s personality, Catherine knew that it would be useless to escape from


    him if he were to find them.


    “Don’t worry, Mommy. He didn’t take us away this time, perhaps he wouldn’te back again.”


    Catherine nodded and looked around the house, “But we have to move away from here, otherwise we’ll


    cause trouble to Owen.”


    Since she wasn’t preparing to run away for the moment, Catherine sorted out her valuable items and


    called a moving service to move her things.


    After that, she called Owen.


    “Hello, Cathy?” Owen sounded tired.


    “Owen, I’m moving out.”


    Owen frowned, “What’s wrong? You don’t feelfortable living here? I have another estate elsewhere.


    How about moving into a bigger house?


    “That’s not the reason. Your house is fine.” Catherine was afraid that he would misunderstand,


    “Anderson had found us here, so I’m taking Sophia and Lincoln to somewhere else.”


    “Then, why don’t you move into my other estate?” Owen quickly reacted as he muttered gently, “Are you


    afraid of causing me trouble?”


    Catherine kept quiet.


    Owen sighed, “It’s okay, Cathy. I’m not afraid of him.”


    She knew he wasn’t afraid of him. If not, he wouldn’t risk to save her out. However, she was afraid


    because she knew Anderson too well. She knew he was a cruel and selfish man who would fight over


    everything. If he knew that Owen had saved her, he certainly wouldn’t let go of the Torres family.


    “You don’t have to persuade me, Owen.” She wasn’t afraid of anything now, but she didn’t want to cause


    trouble to other people, ‘I’ve already found a decent house, the moving service will be here soon.”


    Owen felt helpless, “Alright then, where are you moving to?”


    She told Owen the name of her residential district and hung up the phone to continue moving. She didn’t


    earn much from heric manuscripts, but she still found a rtively high-end housing estate. Although


    she knew she couldn’t stop Anderson if he wanted to find them, she could at least be at ease for the


    moment.


    Anderson didn’te to find them after she had moved out a month ago, so she finally felt at ease.


    An unexpected thing happened on Monday. Catherine was still drawing her manuscript when the school


    teacher contacted her.


    “We wanted to stop them, but the other party brought a few bodyguards along. The school’s security


    guards couldn’t fight them at all.” The teacher sounded anxious, “Ms. Johnson, they were two senior


    citizens who imed to be Sophia and Lincoln’s great grandparents. Do you know them? Shall we call


    the police?”
