He reached out and grabbed her chin. “Are you threatening me? Are you threatening me with your life just to return to S City?”
As he said that, his index finger poked her heart.
Catherine’s face was pale. She took a few steps back and the taste of blood filled her mouth.
In the end, she forced herself to swallow it.
If you don’t care, how can this life threaten you?
Catherine’s brain was so hot that she really wanted to shout out these words. Whether it was willful or reckless, she really wanted to know what position she, Catherine, had in his heart all these years!
When the words came to her mouth, she once again swallowed them with blood. She would not do this, and she could not do this.
She was Catherine. Other than missions and orders, she would not do such a romantic thing.
Some words and some things, once they were spoken, would really be like spilled water that could never be taken back.
She had to bear the risk of saying those words.
She could not afford to gamble.
She was even more unwilling to use everything she had now as a bargaining chip.
Even if he had another love in his heart, she was still willing to stay by his side, even if… It was just a look.
“Christine, tell me, what do you want from me?”Catherine took a few steps back and leaned all her weight against the wall, panting secretly. She breathed.
“You can do whatever I Want?”Christine pressed on step by step.
“Yes.”
“Ha…”there was another mocking snort. Christine could not help but find it funny. “How come I didn’t know you were so obedient?”
Then why did she run away when he asked her to come to the bedroom last time? !
What an unpredictable woman!
“Because… you are my boss.”This sentence sounded sad, but it was also the truth.
Just My Boss?
A wave of anger suddenly rose in Christine’s heart, “Very good! You still know that I am your boss! Then, listen to me obediently! If you dare to disobey me again, do you believe that I will cripple you?”
Cripple Her?
Catherine smiled coldly, her gaze unperturbed, waves surged in her heart, “As you wish. If you want to cripple me, then so be it. These are all your matters. It’s fine as long as you think of it. I have no right to interfere, nor do I have any reason or leeway to resist.”
Her deep eyes stared at her. Kristen suddenly felt that Catherine was so foreign to him, so foreign that he was somewhat caught off guard — helpless!
He fearlessly looked at her until there was a shattering sound —
“PA LA –”Franck stood up uneasily and looked at the Teacup that she had accidentally broken on the coffee table. She bit her lips tightly, she apologized profusely, “I’m sorry… Young Master, I didn’t mean to… I’m sorry…”
This movement pulled Kristen back to reality. Looking at Catherine’s cold appearance, he pulled the distance between the two of them and growled impatiently, “Scram back to S City!”
So he agreed to let her return to S City?
Catherine didn’t know whether she should be happy or sad. She tried her best to make the corners of her lips curve into a smile. “Thank you.”
Dragging her body full of pain, Catherine left the imperial city.
The air pressure in the apartment dropped to freezing point..
..
After returning to s city, Catherine moved into the villa.
The villa that she had once lived in with Christine and luolanning.
She came back quietly without alerting anyone. When the Butler saw her enter the house, he was first excited to see her injuries and then worried.
He hurriedly helped her to the sofa and sat her down. The Butler called for the family doctor to come over and examine her wounds, but Catherine refused.
“Butler, have you forgotten? I am the best doctor.”
The Butler looked at her worriedly. “Miss Catherine, you have heard the saying that a doctor does not treat himself. Since you know your own health condition, why did you come all the way here to torment yourself?”
