Chapter 192
Catherine's POV
Meanwhile, Leo ran in and said angrily, "Jessica, what the hell? You fell on stage! Did you fall on purpose?"
I stood up and explained, "Of course, she didn't. Stop blaming her."
"Then why? You didn't have breakfast, and your legs went weak?" asked Leo, frowning.
"Leo, don't yell at her. She did her best. Leave her alone for a while." I quickly pushed Leo away.
But Jessica stood up suddenly.
She pointed to Leo and shouted, "It's all you. Why do you have to draginto every hype? You are my boss, that's true, but can you find a woman you like to hype up? Stop usingas your rumored girlfriend every time. Do you know why I still can't find a boyfriend? It's because of you."
Leo pulled a long face. "Jessica, do you remember who you are talking to?"
They quarreled. Seeing that, I quickly said, "Enough. Leo, stop arguing with her. She's very upset already. Just leave for now, OK?"
"I know you're my boss. I was just disappointed in love. I'm heartbroken." Jessica looked depressed.
Leo was confused. "You are disappointed in love? Didn't you just say that you don't have a boyfriend? How can you be disappointed in love?"
I looked back at Jessica and saw her sobbing. "I don't have a boyfriend, but I like Cedrick. Can't you tell? I've always had a crush on him! But just now, when I was dancing on stage, he left. He didn't like me! I should stop dreaming."
Leo's eyes were wide open. After a long time, he let out a laugh. "Jessica, good for you. Your crush is rich and powerful. Great taste!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI couldn't help but give him a hard push when I heard Leo's teasing. "Shut it! Can't you see that she's already very upset?"
Leo quickly took a few steps back and said, "Catherine, go out. I'll have a word with her."
Just then, someone cto me. I could only say to Jessica, "Don't be sad. Everything will be fine."
"Catherine, thanks. Go ahead and do your work!" Jessica said sheepishly.
After I walked out, I went to the costroom to help the models with their clothes. Suddenly, I heard the voices of my two kids.
"Mommy, mommy, are you busy?"
As soon as I turned back, I saw my kids running in, followed by Blake.
When the staff saw two beautiful kids running in and callingmom, all of them were stunned.
I put my work aside, squatted down, and hugged them. "Why are you two here?"
"Mommy, we want to see how you work. So, you help these models wear clothes!" Hedwig said curiously.
I couldn't help but smile, saying, "Yes. Do you think the clothes on these models are pretty?"
"Yes! They are so pretty! When I grow up, I want to wear such pretty clothes and go on stage, too!" said Hedwig admiringly.
I immediately kissed Hedwig's face and promised her, "OK. When you grow up, I will design prettier clothes for you. I promise you will be pretty every day."
Noah immediately whispered into my ear, "Mommy, I have something to tell you. Daddy has been looking at the long legs of those models on the stage!"
"Is that so?" I narrowed my eyes and stared at Blake.
"So, that's what you're here for?" I wrapped my arms around my chest and smiled while gritting my teeth.
Blake frowned. "What?"
"Are the models we invited pretty?" I lowered my voice, because there were others present.
"Do you want to hear the truth?" Blake took a step forward. Then he leaned over and whispered into my ear, "Yes, they are."
I turned around and was about to leave, but the next second, Blake grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his arms.
Before I could react, he kissedon the lips.
I pushed him away. "What are you doing?"
"You were suspicious, weren't you? Well, I might as well prove it to you!" Blake smiled evilly.
I straightened the hair in my ear and pretended to be calm. "Alright. We're working backstage. Take the kids out of here. Otherwise, you'll affect our work."
Blake had to leave, holding Hedwig in one arm and leading Noah by the hand.
As soon as he left, the staff present immediately rushed to me. They were so excited. "Catherine, are the two kids really yours? They are so big and cute!"
"And they are King Blake's kids no less! They are so gorgeous! They inherited their beauty from their parents!"
I couldn't help but chuckle as I listened to their discussion. "Alright, stop gossiping about me. Get down to work. If something goes wrong, Melinda will get so mad."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe fashion show lasted for more than two hours before it ended. By the tit was over, Melinda went on stage to wrap up the show.
After the launch, all the guests were invited to a nearby venue for a luncheon. Wine and all sorts of food were prepared for the guests. They got to talk and get to know each other.
Melinda and I changed into dresses. When I passed the lounge, I heard sobbing inside. I quickly pushed the door open and entered.
Jessica was still wiping her tears with a tissue, which made my heart ache. "Jessica, why are you still sitting here? Stop crying. See? Your eyes are red from crying. Let's go and grab something to eat."
"Catherine, is it over?" Jessica stood up and asked.
"Yes. Everyone has gone to the banquet hall next door to rest. You should go as well. Cedrick might be there," I said softly.
"But I don't have any decent clothes to wear now." Jessica was still wearing her dancing costume. She pointed at it and said bitterly.
"I have a lot here. Chere. I'll pick one for you!" I took her hand, found a long, elegant dress for her, and fixed her makeup.
"Catherine, you are so nice. No wonder you are so much in love and have two lovely kids!" Jessica sighed.
I chuckled. "You'll be happy, too. Let's go and find the one you like."
I walked into the venue with Jessica, and sure enough, we saw Cedrick. Jessica's body trembled.
I held her wrist. "Be bold and go talk to him."
"Catherine, I've always been timid, especially in front of him. Maybe I should just sit here," Jessica said.
Her face went pale. I could only say, "Well... Alright then. Sit here while I go and say hello to him."
Jessica quickly nodded repeatedly.
