Chapter 17

Catherine’s POV

It was Mabel on the phone. To reassure her, I quickly explained, “Yeah, the kids are at kindergarten now. And… They are doing great. I’m going to the market for some shopping and will be back soon. Is anything wrong?”

“Cedrick?” I felt a little familiar with the name.

“My eldest son. You met him when you were young. Oh, I forgot that you were still a baby at that time.” Mabel laughed heartily. Then she continued, “Anyway, you can know each other after you come back.”

“Okay, I will be back as soon as possible.”

However, I felt like I was in a large maze as soon as I stepped out of the living room.

‘Heavens! Why did he build his house like a maze?’

As I was so confident when I came out, I was too ashamed to go back and beg him.
