Chapter 172
Catherine‘s POV
I thought I‘d never talk to him again. I didn‘t expect to receive his call.
I pressed the button to answer the call, but for a moment, I did not know how to address him, because he
was not my father.
“Catherine, how have you been?” Alpha Wyatt asked me in a concerned tone.
“I‘m fine,” I replied.
“Are you free tonight? I want to have dinner with you. Even though we can‘t be father and daughter, you
can still think of me as your family.” His words upset me.
I refused him directly, “No. I‘m busy tonight. I‘ve been caught up with worktely. Also, I don‘t think we
should meet again. We are no longer rtives.”
“Catherine, I can understand that you don‘t want to be family with me. But are you serious about not
seeing me ever again?” He said sadly.
I was now officially ke’s girlfriend, which was a known fact. After we got married, I would be the Lycan
Luna of the royal pack.
I would no longer be a rogue.
Alpha Wyatt was smart. Though he wasn‘t a man in search of fame and fortune, he knew very well that I
would be distinguished.
“Yes. I have made up my mind. Since you‘re not my father, we might as well be strangers. You have your
life, and I have mine. I won‘t bother you, and I hope you can leave me alone as well.” My words sounded
harsh, but they came from my heart.
I would never forget what Gina and Elena did to me. The only reason that I didn‘t get even with them was
that I had lived in ck Moon Pack for years.
I had repaid Alpha Wyatt for his upbringing. Therefore, we were done.
“Catherine, I‘m sorry. The thought of not being able to see you ever again makes me so sad.” He
suddenly became very emotional, and he choked with sobs.
I said indifferently, “Don‘t be sad. All this time, I have been dispensable to you. Now
that I‘m gone, shouldn‘t you be d?”
“Catherine, don‘t think like that. I‘ve always treated you as my daughter. I didn‘t do well enough to be a
good father, but I think of you as my daughter from the bottom of my heart.”
“If there is nothing else, I‘ve got to go. I still have work to do.” I did not give him a chance to speak. I
hung up the phone.
I should be tough. I was not alone anymore. I had two kids. I needed to toughen up for the kids‘ sake.
It was already past six o‘clock in the afternoon, and I still hadn‘t finished my work. I might have to go
homete.
“Mommy... Haven‘t you finished your work yet?” Hedwig picked up and asked in a cute voice.
All of a sudden, my heart was warmed by my daughter‘s childish voice.
My tone softened as I said, “Yes. I have something important to do recently.”
“Mommy, why don‘t you let daddy help you? I’m sure daddy will be very helpful!” Hedwig was very
considerate.
Ichuckled. “It‘s my job. Daddy can‘t help it. I have to do it myself.”
“Well, mommy, don‘t be too tired. And don‘te back toote. I want you to hold me to sleep!” Hedwig
pouted and said with great concern.
“OK. Once it‘s over here, I will go back and be with you!” I nodded with a smile.
Hedwig blew me a kiss and hung up the phone.
I suddenly felt much more energetic and high–spirited to work.
I was busy in the meeting room when someone knocked on the door suddenly.
I opened the door and saw Henry. He smiled at me and said, “Ms. Wyatt, King ke is here!”
“That‘s so romantic. King ke is here to see you personally! What a perfect boyfriend!”
“That‘s right! Can I sneak a peek at King ke?”
My face burnt up as I listened to the people eximing.
Henry pped his hands, and a few pack guards came in with a lot of delicious food in
their hands.
“‘This is from King ke for your service to thepany. Thanks for your devotion!”
I looked at the table full of delicious food, and my heart beat faster.
ke was here for me, and he also brought delicacies for my colleagues. Was he buying his poprity?

“Ms. Wyatt, King ke is waiting for you in your office!” Henry said.
I thanked him in a low voice and quickly walked to the office.
I pushed open the office door and saw ke leaning against my desk in an unbridled manner with his
hands in his pockets.
He was wearing a suit and tie. The me in his eyes was flickering, which was intoxicating. My heart was
already a mess under his gaze.
“Why are you here?“I asked, trying to suppress my flutter.
I was confused. I didn‘t tell him that I was workingte. How did he know I was still
here?
“Noah called me, so I came here to see you.” ke told me honestly. His voice was low and maic.
I was slightly stunned. Naughty Noah!
“You‘re already working sote. You don‘t have toe here. Go home and get some rest. Be with Noah
and Hedwig,” I said, pretending to be calm and modest.
“Aren‘t you happy that I‘m here for you?” ke raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes a little
disappointed.
I took a decp breath. I knew that he would twist my words.
“I‘m happy, of course. I’m certainly honored to have King ke here.” I smiled shyly.
ke approached me slowly. His voice was still low as he said, “Drop the business–like tone. I want to
hear the answer from your heart. Are you happy that I‘m here for you?”
I nodded slightly. “Yes.”
“Have you had dinner yet?” asked ke.
“Not yet. I ordered some pizza.” I nced at a big bag on the desk. Did ke bring me food as well?
“Don‘t eat junk food anymore. You‘re skinny enough. Come here!” ke gently took my hand and led me
to the small sofa at the side. “I asked Henry to bring you something to eat. Eat it while it‘s still warm.”
Hearing that, I was somehow grateful. “Thanks! Care to join me?”
ke chuckled. “Open it. If there‘s enough, I’ll grab a bite together with you to eat a little. I‘ll go home
and eat with the kidster anyway!”
I opened the bag. In the bag were a portion of nice roasted steak and a bowl of creamy mushroom soup.
