Chapter 73
Catherine’s POV
1 turned around and smiled when I saw Leo’s flushed face. So what? If you think you are a joke, well, you deserve it. Experience must be bought, right? Be nicer to others from now on. Don’t push people into the corner just because they refuse to work with you. How do you feel now shooting yourself in the foot?”
“Don’t think you can talk tolike that just because you had two kids with Blake…”
“Leo, is everyone in the royal family as unreasonable and condescending as you are?” | raised my eyebrows and talked back a little unhappily.
Leo was stunned!
I didn’t bother to talk to him anymore. I wanted to go to the kitchen to grab something to eat.
“You… You have to apologize to me. You knew the truth, yet you still watchedmake a fool of myself yesterday.”
Leo caught up withand said so.
I opened up the fridge and took a look. There were a lot of fresh ingredients inside. Dowen might have gone out on an errand right now. He was not at home.
I decided to make sroasted chicken with herbs and seafood pasta for myself. I pretended to ignore the man behindwho was accusingangrily.
The more I ignored Leo, the angrier he became. However, he did not dare to do anything to me. He could only glare atwhile his face turned red with anger.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI found him so unreasonable.
I didn’t think I did anything wrong. I had a reason not to tell the truth yesterday.
“Mommy… Who is he? I have never seen him before.” Just as Leo could not calm down whatsoever, he heard a childish voice sounding from behind.
It was Hedwig. She woke up. She must have realized that I was not by her side and cdownstairs.
Leo turned around and saw Hedwig behind him.
Hedwig’s hair was messy, and her face was delicate and cute. She was wearing a creamy-white pajama with patterns of cows on it. She looked so lovely.
Leo stared at Hedwig, and she stared back at him.
I walked over immediately. “Hedwig, why did you get downstairs with so little on? You are still sick Do you know that?”
“Mommy, my fever is gone. I’m not sick anymore. So, I don’t want to take medicine anymore.” When Hedwig heard that she was sick, the first thing she thought of was that she might have to take medicine. Her face was full of frustration.
I comforted her gently, “Fine. Just put on more clothes. You won’t have to take medicine unless you feel sick OK?”
“Mommy, you haven’t toldwho he is yet. He is so handsome!” Hedwig sized Leo up.
Just as I was about to introduce him, Leo had already squatted down and looked at Hedwig. His face was gloomy back then, but now he smiled. “Hey there, what is your name? I am your uncle, for real!”
“For real? Mommy, could there be a fake uncle?” Hedwig did not understand.
I immediately replied, “He is your daddy’s younger brother, your uncle. You can call him Leo from now on.”
“What’s the nof my niece?” asked Leo, turning to me.
“My nis Hedwig! Leo, are you here to see me? Did you bringa gift?” Hedwig, thought that Leo was here because she was sick
Leo was slightly stunned and looked at me, asking for help.
i knew exactly why he came, and he definitely didn’t bring any gifts.
“Hedwig, Leo cin a hurry today and didn’t have tto prepare a gift for you. I’ll ask him to make it up to you next time, OK?” I comforted Hedwig.
Hedwig compromised easily. She immediately nodded and said, “Well, Leo, be sure to bringa gift the next tyou cto visit me. I will also send you a gift in return.”
“OK. Promise. I will bring you lots of gifts the next tI chere,” Leo answered with a smile.
“And a gift for Noah too. He’s my brother!” Hedwig did not forget about Noah.
Leo nodded.
I stood up with Hedwig in my arms. “Mommy will take you upstairs to change.”
“Leo, don’t leave yet. I’ll take you to see my friend Chestnut later.” Hedwig was carried upstairs by me, and she still wanted Leo to stay.
“Who is Chestnut?” Leo was in a daze.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Chestnut is Chestnut. It’s very cute. Wait here! I’ll take you to it in a while,” Hedwig said happily.
A few minutes later, Hedwig changed into a princess dress. With two ponytails, she hopped downstairs happily.
I went downstairs and said to Hedwig, “Hedwig, do you want sseafood pasta?”
“Yes! Mommy, you can go ahead and eat first. I’ll take Leo to see Chestnut.” As soon as Hedwig finished speaking, she
ran to Leo, grabbed one of his fingers, and tried to pull him away. “Leo, cwith me.”
Leo glanced at me, askingwith his eyes who Chestnut was.
I smiled without saying anything, letting him find out on his own.
Hedwig was a good-tgirl.
They went back after about half an hour. As soon as they walked into the parlor, Leo collapsed on the sofa.
Hedwig was also worn out. I took a towel and wiped her sweat. Then I was about to feed her some pasta.
All of a sudden, I saw Leo lying on the sofa. I kindly asked him, “Hey, do you want spasta?”
“Is there any for me?” Leo sat up immediately.
“Yes. If you want some, just chere.”
Leo slowly walked over. “She never gets tired! I am exhausted from running, and she hasn’t had enough! I am starving.”
