My Mate Has Two Wolves

Chapter 58

Catherine's POVFrom NôvelDrama.Org.

Blake took Noah and Hedwig shopping at the mall today. I got to work quietly for a while after coming back.

It was getting late. I was drawing in my room when I heard Hedwig's happy voice from afar. I guessed that she was so happy because she had bought a lot of toys.

I put down my pen and quickly walked to the door.

When I opened the door, a soft, delicate body pounced on me. She hugged my leg. "Mommy, come downstairs now..."

One of my fingers was held tightly by her small hand. She pulled me downstairs with force. I smiled as I saw how excited Hedwig was.

As long as the kids were having fun, I wouldn't say no to them hanging out with that man anymore.

In the parlor, high on the roof, a huge chandelier was lit up, and the lights were bright.

I saw the man sitting on the sofa. He turned his head and looked at me. Our eyes met for only a second before I quickly lowered my head and looked at the stairs.

"Mommy, come and see. Daddy bought you a lot of gifts. You will love them!" Hedwig pulled my hand and walked to the couch in the parlor.

I frowned slightly when Hedwig said Blake bought those gifts.

What was he up to? Why did he buy me gifts? Was he trying to buy me off?

"Noah, open your backpack and show them to mommy," Hedwig urged Noah with great joy.

I watched as the two kids opened their bags and took out the things one by one. They were all very exquisite little boxes in all shapes. In each box, there was sparkling jewelry, ranging from bracelets, necklaces, rings to earrings.

"What are these?" I was stunned. I admitted that I had never seen such big diamonds in my life, and I had never seen so much jewelry. However, in the next second, I fixed my eyes on Blake sternly. "Are these you bought for me?"

Blake glanced over the boxes on the table, and his thin lips curled slightly. "It wasn't me. The children asked me to give them to you."

"Mommy... Don't you like them? It wasn't easy for Noah and me to get them back for you..." Hedwig said in a low voice. Since she did not see a happy smile on my face, she was a little panicked. She immediately pulled the corner of my clothes carefully.

I ignored Hedwig's frightened look and still stared at Blake. "What are you doing? Are you

trying to prove how rich you are? You know I won't take anything from you."

Blake's face instantly became sullen. He tried to be patient and said, "I told you already. I wasn't the one who chose these things for you. The kids thought you needed them, so they picked them up for you."

My face was stiff, and I slowly turned to look at Noah, who was standing silently beside me.

"Noah, is this your idea?" I was certain, in fact. Hedwig was not as smart as Noah, and she couldn't think of such a complex plan. It must have been Noah.

Noah immediately raised his face and laughed dryly. "Mommy, I thought you would like them. Daddy bought them anyway. So, you might as well take them."

"Noah, it's really you!" I was angry at once and glared at Noah. "Who told you to bring these things back?"

Blake was taken aback by my stern rebuke as well. He immediately turned his head and said unhappily, "Hey! Why are you scolding the kids? They asked me to buy these things for your sake. All they thought about was you. Instead of thanking them for their good intentions, you scolded them instead. You are being so unreasonable."

"I'm talking to my kids. Don't interrupt!" I said.

In fact, I also had mixed feelings. But I felt that the kids indeed made a mistake today. They shouldn't have taken such valuable things at such a young age. Though they did not steal or rob, it was still a bit too much.

"Mommy, don't blame Noah. I took the things, too. Blame me as well." Hedwig immediately ran to Noah while tears were streaming down her face. She was so determined to face whatever was upcoming together with him.

"Mommy, stop scolding me, please. I know I was wrong. It won't happen again." Noah seemed to know that he had gone too far.

Seeing that they admitted their mistake with the right attitude, I was no longer angry. But I still warned them very solemnly, "No more taking things in the future. Keep your hands off them."

"OK."

"What about you?" I turned to Hedwig. She pouted and nodded with a wronged look on her face.

Blake, who stood next to them, looked at me in shock.

"Return all these things, and I'll spare you this time. Never do such a thing again." I stood up after I finished speaking.

Noah and Hedwig looked at each other and sighed dejectedly.

"Daddy, could you return these things? Mommy doesn't want them." Noah walked over and said to Blake.

"You guys do whatever your mommy says. Why? Did she spank you before?" asked Blake.

I glanced at Blake with some dissatisfaction. What was he suggesting?

"Yes! She sometimes spanks us, on the bottom!" Hedwig said frankly.

Blake's eyes darkened. I felt a little guilty and looked away. It was purely symbolic. No harm was done.

But Blake didn't ask further, so I didn't explain.

"Alright, I'll ask Henry to put all these things back tomorrow. Don't be sad, you two. Your mommy knows how much you love her. She won't accept these things because she can't

accept me yet. After we become a real family in the future..."

"What are you talking about?" I interrupted Blake before he finished.

Blake immediately stopped talking.

"Daddy, what do o you mean by becoming a real family? Are you going to marry mommy?"

Noah was very happy.

I frowned and said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense. Don't make promises you can't keep in front of the kids. They will take it seriously."

Dowen quickly smiled as he walked over and said to us, "King Blake, Ms. Wyatt, dinner is ready. You can take the kids to eat now.'
