Catherine's POV

I stood in the doorway, looking at Patricia. I didn't know if I should say something.

Patricia saw me and said, "Come and sit here."

I walked over and sat on the sofa next to her.

Patricia sighed. "I never wanted to see you again, but I just couldn't bear to part with Noah and Hedwig. So, from now on, you may come and join us for dinner."

Blake and I looked at each other, and Blake smiled.

"Thank you, Patricia. I love you so much!" Hedwig kissed Patricia on the face.

"Thank you, Patricia." I was very grateful.

Patricia turned around and said, "I only said you could come here and eat with us. I didn't promise you anything else."

"I know." Still, I was very happy.

I knew that Patricia had a good heart. She was simply stubborn.

I didn't hate her, because Halsey hurt her.

At least Patricia didn't kick me out of the lakeside villa and still allowed me to spend time with Noah and Hedwig.

"Let's eat!" Patricia held Noah and Hedwig's hands.

Blake quickly said, "I'll go upstairs and get Emerson."

Emerson had been in his wheelchair due to the cold weather.

The family finally gathered together again at the dining table. I still didn't dare to relax.

Patricia suddenly said, "Leo is getting more and more reluctant to go home. He hasn't come back to see me in all this time!"

Blake smiled and said, "Maybe Leo had a crush on someone. He tweeted a lot about relationships these days."

I was stunned. My fork fell from my hand to the plate, making a crisp sound.
