Blake's POV

Catherine blushed slightly at my words. She said, "I want to be here for a while longer."

"Then I'll be here with you," I said.

Catherine shook her head and said, "I'm done. You should head out. I need to change."

"What if I don't want to go out?" I said cheekily.

Catherine frowned. Then she ignored me and stood up straight.

After she took off her wet clothes with her back to me, she reached out to take the white bathrobe next to her and wrapped her warm body. Then she turned around and said, "I'm going to sleep. Take your time."

I was stunned for a long time.

Why did I feel that I had been eased?

When I left the bathroom, I paused and subconsciously walked to another guest room.

I pushed open the door and saw Catherine, who was already asleep with a quilt in her arms. She had already taken the medicine placed on the table.

I was still worried. I walked to the side of the bed and bent down. I reached out and placed my hand on her still-hot forehead. The fever was going away, and her forehead was covered in a thin layer of sweat.

Catherine opened her eyes in a daze and turned her head.

"Go to sleep." I stroked her soft long hair and said in a low and gentle voice, like I was coaxing a child.

"You should, too," Catherine whispered.

"OK. I'll sleep now." I couldn't help but bend down and kiss the corner of her mouth. Then I tucked her in and left.

When I returned to my room, I saw that Hedwig had kicked the quilt off her body.

As soon as I reached out, Hedwig immediately hugged my hands with her two chubby hands. Her face rubbed against my hand, as if she were a kitten, and she muttered, "Mommy..."

Hedwig's tender and childish voice made my heart melt. She relied on Catherine so much.

She was instinctively seeking the warmth of her mommy, though she was asleep.

I was a little disappointed that Hedwig was not calling me.

"Sweetheart, have a good dream!" I leaned over, kissed Hedwig on the head gently, and whispered my blessing.
