Chapter 305
Blake's POV
Early in the morning, the sun shone into the room. I got up to take Noah and Hedwig to school.
Catherine was still asleep. Noah and Hedwig quietly approached her. Each of them gave her a morning kiss.
Seeing Catherine wake up, Hedwig laughed.
On the contrary, Noah complained, "Hedwig, you woke Mommy up."
Hedwig felt a little aggrieved. She said, "I just wanted to kiss Mommy. It feels like ages since the last time I kissed her."
I listened to their conversation, feeling that I had never been in a better mood.
Nothing was better than opening my eyes in the morning and seeing my kids and my beautiful wife.
Catherine hugged them and said, "I'm awake. Are you going to school now?"
"Yes. I wanted Daddy to talk to the teacher and get us another day off, but he turned me down. Bad Daddy!" Hedwig pouted.
I was already standing at the door of the coat room with Noah and Hedwig's uniforms in my hands. When I heard Hedwig's words, I smiled, "Hedwig, instead of thinking about playing or asking for leave every day, you should focus on your studies, OK?"
Catherine looked at me with infatuation. I knew that I looked extremely handsome right now. I loved the way she looked at me. For now, I was her entire world.
I couldn't thank the Moon Goddess enough for letting me have Catherine. It was so good to be with her. I felt like Catherine was a part of me.
"Sleep more. I will drop Noah and Hedwig at school and ask the teacher about how they have been doing in school," I said to Catherine. She needed to rest.
"Alright. You are the best!" Catherine nodded and kissed me.
Noah looked at me and asked curiously, "Daddy, what do you want to ask our teacher?"
"Nothing. I just want to know what you've been up to at school," I teased Noah.
Noah rolled his eyes. "My performance is perfect. I'm up to nothing."
Hedwig was still drowsy. When I was going to change her school uniform, she was still yawning. She was so lovely.
I changed clothes for Noah and Hedwig, but I couldn't do Hedwig's hair. I looked to Catherine for help.
Catherine laughed. She sat up and put Hedwig's hair in two lovely braids.
I went to Catherine and kissed her forehead. "Catherine, stay at home. Don't go anywhere. OK?"
"Yes," she smiled and nodded.
She looked so cute. I couldn't help but kiss her again.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. I had to send the kids to school before I lost control and kissed Catherine again. I couldn't look at her without wanting to kiss her.
I sent the kids to school. When I entered the classroom, several young female teachers there looked at me.
I was familiar with such a kind of gaze, and I didn't care.
I sent Noah and Hedwig off to play with their classmates, and several of the teachers greeted
me.
"King Blake, it's rare to see you bring the kids to school."
I said with a smile, "I want to know how my children are doing at school. I have been busy these days. Did they behave well?"
"King Blake, you don't need to worry about them at all. Hedwig and Noah are the best kids here."
"That's right. We will take care of them."
The teachers' words made me relieved. I believed that Noah and Hedwig would not cause any trouble, because they were raised well by Catherine.
After I left their school, I went straight to the office.
Both the Chavez Group and the pack had been unsettling these days. Someone had poached clients who were important to me, and several senior executives had resigned. Moreover, the pack's secret was leaked.
I tried to keep things from getting worse.
I had found out that someone was plotting against me. Also, I knew who he was.
He was the only person who knew everything so well.
I rushed to the company and immediately held a meeting.
Right now, I was sitting in the office, finalizing the meeting with Dowen.
"King Blake, we have asked the legal team to deal with this, but we haven't received a response from the other party," Dowen said in a low voice.
"I may be away for a while. Get ready for me. I'm going to meet someone," I said to Dowen.
"King Blake, are you going to see him?" Dowen looked worried.
"I don't know how many werewolves he has bought off in the company. While I'm gone, clean the house for me. Get those rats out. I will send them to the werewolf court to show
them what betrayal will cost them," I said angrily.
The Chavez Group had close ties to the royal pack. The person behind this had made quite some moves with the help of those traitors, which drew my attention away from the pack. I knew what he wanted. He was coveting something that was out of his league. He was not up to the task of leading the pack.
"OK. King Blake, I'm sure they'll make a move after you leave. I've got people keeping an eye on anyone who has access to the pack's classified documents. I'll let you know at once if they make any moves." Dowen was also very angry.
The Chavez Group had always been operating well. However, I had been distracted by attending to Catherine in the hospital in the recent week, and I had no time to spare for either the company or the pack. Someone in the pack had started to question me. I knew. He was behind it.
I was busier than ever. I used to try to cut my day down to the day, leaving my evenings free for the kids and Catherine.
To get home early to be with Catherine and the kids for dinner, I continued to work during my lunch break. I spared myself only ten minutes to eat.
I never told Catherine any of this. I didn't want her to worry about me, and I didn't want to lose a single minute I had with the kids.
I was absent for five years of their childhood, so I wanted to spend more time making up for

This time, however, what was happening in the Chavez Group and the pack was urgent. I had to devote all my time to it. So, for the first time, I called Catherine, because I couldn't be
home for dinner.
"Catherine, I'm sorry. There have been a lot of things going on with the pack recently. I can't come back for dinner." I felt bad.
"Blake, you delayed a lot of work while I was in the hospital. I understand. Just keep in mind that the kids and I are waiting for you." Catherine cared a lot about me.
"I will. Catherine, have I told you that you are the best gift the Moon Goddess has given to me?" I said gently. My love for Catherine grew deeper each day.
"Same here, Blake. I thank the Moon Goddess for making you part of my life," whispered
Catherine.
I could picture Catherine blushing in my mind.
Dowen was calling me, so I had to hang up the phone with Catherine.
