Chapter 488

The night grew late.

The main building of the Donovan family was brightly lit.

Apart from Athena, Josie, and two elderly people, the others gathered in the hall to watch Catherine.

Catherine was wearing slippers and a loose casual dress. Her long burgundy curly hair fell around her waist. Her face without makeup had a hyaluronic luster.

Although there were signs of surgery and injections on her face, overall, her medical treatment was very successful. She was in her early fifties and looked to be only about forty years old. She still had her charm. Coupled with her lazy and leisurely noblewoman posture, she still had people looking back when she walked on the streets.

The Donovan family's people looked at her with mixed feelings.

Catherine held a glass of red wine in a very standard posture. As she slowly sipped it, she said sincerely to Claire, "Claire, my husband died a few years ago. I've been living alone and don't have any other children. I'm getting old and want to return.

"My husband left me a rich inheritance to ensure I'm well provided for, but what I miss the most is the time when we lived together.

"For me, the Donovan family is my only home.

"With Maria here, this is where I belong."

Catherine put down her glass and grabbed Claire's hand. "Claire, I want to move back to the Donovan family and live with

you.

"The house is so big. There will be a place for me, right?"

Claire was excited and happy to see her sister whom she had not seen for more than ten years. However, she could tell that Maria was very afraid of Catherine.

In fact, Maria had been nervous and frightened ever since she saw Catherine in the morning. She was like a frightened little rabbit who had no choice but to obey a wolf's request and could only nod no matter what the wolf said.

Even though a day had passed, Maria felt like she was sleepwalking in a nightmare. With a pale face, she sat motionless in the corner of the sofa area. Her knees were pressed together, and her lips were pursed tightly. She tightly gripped her knees, too afraid to look up, In this way, she became the introverted, sensitive, and terrified girl like when she was young.

The Donovan family's people could tell her change.

However, they didn't ask her in front of Catherine.

Claire thought for a moment and looked at Maria. "Maria, your mother wants to live with you. What do you think?" After saying that, Claire explained, "Catherine, it's like this. A few people are living in the building where Maria is living. They're all young people. It might be a little crowded if you live there..."

Before Maria spoke, Catherine interrupted Claire. "Claire, Maria won't have any objections. It's up to you."

The Donovan family's people looked at each other with a slight frown.

Their impression of Catherine was not bad. After all, 22 years ago, Catherine was the one who took care of Zilvia when
