Chapter 342

Catherine's POV

Blake went to work early the next morning.

Suddenly, my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and found that it was Halsey. I was very glad to receive his call. 'Halsey, why are you back so suddenly? You should have told me in advance."

"It was a last-minute call. Can we have dinner together tonight? It would be even better if you could bring the kids together with you," Halsey said gently.

I hesitated for a moment and then whispered, "Let me ask Blake. If he doesn't want me to bring the kids out, I will come alone."

"Alright. See you tonight." Halsey hung up the phone.

Then I called Blake and told him about the call with Halsey. There was a bit of displeasure in Blake's tone. "Is he back?"

"Yes. Can I bring the kids to eat with him?" I asked him nicely, wanting to know his opinion.

"At a time like this, I don't think you should take the kids out." Blake still blamed Halsey.

I didn't insist. "OK then. I will go see him alone. I will be back early."

I went out in Blake's car. Ever since the last accident, Blake had attached great importance to my safety, and he wouldn't allow me to drive whatsoever. Though I felt a bit helpless about this, I didn't dare to express my opinion. Having an exclusive car to pick me up at any time couldn't hurt anyway, right?

I arrived at the restaurant that Halsey picked. Under the escort of two pack guards, I entered the restaurant. From afar, I saw Halsey waving at me. He was sitting by the window.

I said a few words to the guards and walked towards Halsey's table alone.

'Halsey, you are here so early," I smiled.

"I came back this time to see you. Of course, I'm here early." Halsey sized me up.

*Halsey, you don't need to do that. I'm sure you are busy. You'll be exhausted traveling back and forth like this." I felt distressed.

"That won't happen. At the thought of seeing you, I won't be tired at all." Halsey looked at me without blinking. I knew that he treasured every second he spent with me, and he wanted to make up for his absence of more than twenty years.

I smiled heartily. I used to be very tentative about what I said and did when I was with Troy, and I never dared to show a genuine smile. Back then, I figured that he disliked me. I never knew till now that a daughter would only reveal her purest smile when she was in front of her real father.
