Chapter 16


    “Antonio is keeping that cat. Do you want to go and take care of it?”


    Sienna swaggered triumphantly and finally pointed at Catherine and said, “You already don’t have the


    support of the Johnson family now. You have nothing. Don’t think of entering the rk family using the


    children as an excuse, it’s impossible. Anderson is already thinking to sell your children!”


    After Sienna left, Catherine stayed beside the hospital bed and was overshadowed by a dark cloud of


    depression.


    After she knew that her mother passed away, she had asked Owen countless times how her mother


    died. Owen only told her that her mother died from sleeping pills but he did not tell her about the matter


    afterward.


    She also never dared to think deeply about it.


    She never dared to regain the memory of this matter.


    But, Sienna’s words today made her felt that she could not ignore and sidestep that.


    She still remembered that the cat was found by her and Anderson together. She still remembered that


    the sun was shining brightly that day and she went to school to watch Anderson y sports. On her way


    home, she saw a snow-white creature lying in the middle of the road with a veryrge wound on its hind


    leg. After she and Anderson took the cat to the pet store, because Anderson was allergic to cat fur, she


    kept it herself after it got better. She kept it herself until she and Anderson got married.


    Worrying that Anderson would have an allergy again, she left the cat in the Johnson family to let her


    mother take care of it…


    She did not know whether what Sienna said was true or not. Although Antonio was obviously in the


    hospital, she did not dare to find him to confirm with him.


    As long as it was not confirmed, she couldfort herself that it was fake. It was just a lie that Sienna


    deliberately made up.


    “We’re going to do the intravenous injection.”


    After hearing Antonio’s words, Catherine was so shocked that her body quivered violently out of the blue.


    Antonio was puzzled, “What’s wrong? Why does your face look so pale? You don’t feel well?”


    Catherine shook her head.


    Antonio signalled the nurse to give Sophia an intravenous injection. Heforted Catherine, “You don’t


    have to worry about Sophia’s health, trust my ability.”


    Catherine barely showed a smile, “I believe in your medical skills.”


    Antonio’s talent in medical science was extraordinarily good. When he was in high school, he had


    already studied medicine with a group of medical experts when everyone was still struggling with


    examinations. After he graduated, he even directly set up Antonio Hospital that was specifically for high-


    ss people. Not only the environment was good, but the doctors in the hospitals were also experts from


    all over the world.


    “Just trust me,” Antonio said with some hesitation, “Catherine, I don’t know what happened exactly


    between you and Anderson that year, but you have excessive concerns with troubles in your mind now.


    You should find a trustworthy person to talk to. If you trust me, you can also find me and talk to me about


    it. I assure you that this will be a secret between us.”


    Catherine twitched her lips and still did not dare to ask him how was her mother when he saw her mother


    at that time.


    ‘It’s okay. It’s okay to talk about itter since you haven’t thought about it.” Antonio smiled and hugged


    Catherine, “The person by the name of Catherine I knew in the past was not a coward. She had always


    been brave.”


    “What are you guys doing?” Anderson’s voice that crackled with anger came from the doorway. If the


    coldness on his face could be turned into a real weapon, Catherine and Antonio would probably die


    several times now.


    Antonio did not care and just shrugged his shoulders at Anderson. He spoke while smiling friendly, “I’m


    justforting my old friend.”


    Catherine did not look at Anderson.


    The nurse had already finished injecting. Antonio checked Sophia’s body again before leaving with the


    nurse. When he left, he said to Catherine, “You cane to my office anytime if you encounter anything,


    I’ll wait for you.”


    Seeing this, Anderson was boiling with rage. He gazed at Catherine coldly and used his fingers to sp


    her jaw. His lips slightly curled, “Your ability to seduce others these years is getting better and better.”


    “I’m still not as good as you.” Catherine moved away from him. When she saw Anderson now, every part


    of her body was showing an aversion to him, “Does Mr. rk have any matter?”


    The more her aversion was, the more Anderson’s wicked sense of humour was. He moved closer to


    Catherine, “Ile to see my child.”


    “They didn’t have a father a few years ago, so they also don’t need a father now.” Anderson sat leisurely


    on the sofa with his long legs crossed, “I think Sophia doesn’t think that way.”


    For Catherine, every second of staying in the same ce with him was a torment to her. She simply


    ignored him and stayed beside Sophia, looking at the drip bottle.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Fortunately, Anderson did not stay in the hospital for long. He left after Joshua called him.


    When he left, he sped her jaw with a cold expression and made her body leaned against the window,


    “Catherine! You should know that you’re now the mother of your children. Don’t go around to flirt with


    others and make my children think that their mother is a promiscuous woman of loose morals!”


    A promiscuous woman of loose morals?


    So, this was surprisingly what his impression about her was. Catherineughed.


    She felt that she had improved a lot when facing Anderson as this kind of humiliation could not harm her


    anymore.


    Sophia’s condition was getting better very quickly. The day that she could be discharged from the


    hospital was around theer.


    On the day of being discharged from the hospital, Madison and Bentley came very early with a few


    bodyguards. It seemed that they were afraid that Catherine would secretly bring the children away.


    Seeing this, Catherine had a self-deprecating smile. Under the power of the rk family, where could


    she take her children to? She could not keep hiding from them for the rest of her life.


    “Mommy, I want to go home.” When Sophia saw a group of bodyguards, she hid beside Catherine in


    fear.


    “Doesn’t Sophia miss your dad? Grandma will ask your dad to take you to Disnend.” Madison smiled


    benevolently.


    Sophia said hesitantly, “Can’t both Mommy and Daddy apany me to go?”


    “Your mommy is very busy with work,” Madison looked up at Catherine and said while smiling, “Am I


    right, Catherine?” Catherine remained silent and felt very sarcastic.


    “Then I won’t go to Disnend.” Sophia bit her lips and embraced Catherine’sps, saying, “I’ll go when


    both Mom and Dad are free.”


    The smile on Madison’s face stiffened. She asked the bodyguard beside her to grab Sophia.


    Watching this scene, Lincoln secretly took Catherine’s phone and hid in the washroom.


    When Lincoln called him, Anderson was dealing with some old guys. His heart was smouldering in


    resentment towards Owen.


    When he heard the phone ringing, he answered the call without even looking at it.


    “Hello.”


    ‘This is Lincoln.”


    Hearing Lincoln’s voice, a trace of surprise shed in Anderson’s eyes, “What’s wrong?”


    ‘ll stay in the rk family. You let Sophia and Mommy leave.” Lincoln’s calm voice was apparently


    domineering.


    Anderson’s lips curled and he felt quite interesting. Hezily yed with the pen in his hand, “Why


    should I promise you?”


    “If Sophia isn’t with Mommy, she will continue to refuse to eat and this will let her get sick again. So, I’ll


    go with you. Let Sophia and Mommy leave. Anyway, you guys don’t care about Sophia, right?”


    Lincoln was full of confidence. He knew it early when he was in the rk family. The members of the


    rk family cared more about boys. The reason they pleased Sophia was just that it was easier to coax


    Sophia, who could hold him back.


    Anderson smiled even more. His son was really as arrogant as him! But at a young age, it was not


    possible for him to win his father. Anderson’s eyes narrowed, “What if I don’t promise you?”


    Lincoln bit his lips and a trace of blood soon oozed out of his delicate lips. Since Mommy met this man,


    she was not in the right state. That day, he saw a serious injury on Mommy’s neck. It was surely caused


    by Anderson. Mommy and Sophia had already suffered a lot so he wanted to protect Mommy and his


    sister.


    “As long as you let Sophia and Mommy leave, I assure you that I’ll stay in the rk family obediently and


    I’ll never contact Mommy again. You can transfer me to another school or you can change my domicile


    and my name, whatever Mr. rk wants to do.” Lincoln’s tone was very domineering with unquestionable


    certainty. But, his eyes secretly turned watery.


    Anderson sneered. He was still so domineering although it was already up to this point? “Call me dad.”


    The only thing that responded to Anderson on the other side of the phone was silence.


    A bolt of lightning shed in Anderson’s eyes. His tone was slow and the smiles on his face became


    more evil and wicked, “Lincoln, is this your sincerity?”
