Chapter 343

Catherine's POV

It was early in the morning.

At breakfast, Blake brought up the engagement. The others were very supportive. No one had any objections.

Emerson was simply thrilled. He rarely came down to have breakfast with us. Hearing that Blake and I were going to get engaged, he said excitedly, "That's great! The sooner the better!"

Hedwig stirred the oats in her bowl, pouted, and asked, "Daddy, Mommy, after you get engaged, can I have a younger sister?"

Everyone was amused by her words.

I was the only exception. I blushed. Blake's gaze swept across my face, and he gently put his arm around my slender waist under the table.

I was startled and quickly pushed his unruly hand away.

"Hedwig, no talking when eating. Have you forgotten?" I was worried that Hedwig might say something blunter, so I reprimanded her softly.

I'm sorry, Mommy." Hedwig immediately became obedient again.

"Catherine, are you on vacation? If not, you can go to work. I will take care of the kids." Patricia was getting nicer to me now. Maybe it was because the Abigail thing had turned out the other way, so she didn't resent Halsey as much.

"There's no need for that, Patricia. I'll stay at home with them." I had already asked Melinda for leave.

"OK." Patricia didn't insist.

After breakfast, I sent Blake to work at the door. He kept kissing me, having no intention of stopping at all. I was so shy that I didn't dare to look up at the eyes of those around me. I felt like the temperature of my cheeks was high enough to fry eggs.

Blake chuckled. As he wanted to kiss me again, his phone rang. I glanced at the screen and saw that it was Leo. "Hey, Leo. What's the matter?' Blake was in a good mood.

"What? OK. I'll be there in a minute." Blake's expression became very serious. My gut told me that something had happened, and I felt a little uneasy.

"What happened?" I asked worriedly.

I'll get going now," Blake
