Chapter 62

Catherine’s POV

“Dowen, what happened to Hedwig? Do you know something?” I asked curiously.

Dowen replied honestly, “The Princess has been like this after King Blake sent her back this afternoon. I don’t know what happened either. Maybe she was frightened.”

My brows couldn’t help but twitch. It was the same time that Eva told me that something was wrong with Hedwig. But what exactly happened to Hedwig?

I looked up and saw that Dowen was still looking at me, so I smiled and said, “OK. I’ll take her upstairs to play with Noah.”

Dowen nodded and went off to do something else.

I squatted down and smiled at Hedwig. “Hedwig, come here. Let’s go upstairs to find Noah and let him play with you, OK?”

“Mommy, I don’t want to play… I want to wait for daddy to come back.” Hedwig said in a low voice, as if she was afraid.

“Your daddy won’t be back so soon. Mommy will play with you for a while, OK?” I still smiled gently.

Hedwig immediately shook her head and said, “No! I want daddy. Daddy promised me.”

I had to stand up and say, “Hedwig, are you abandoning me? I’m so sad.”

When Hedwig heard me say this, she was hesitant, but she still did not come to my side.

My hands were tied. I decided to go back upstairs and change before hugging Hedwig.

As soon as I walked up the stairs, I saw her run out of the parlor. She sat quietly on the steps, waiting for Blake to come back
