Chapter 87
Chapter 87
Johanna’’s words were quite different from her image before. Catherine cast her a few glances. Johanna smiled. “Catherine, you haven’t been with the kids for a long time, have you?” Catherine didn’t speak while staring at her.
“Anderson, the kids are still young. If they are separate from their mother, they must miss her a lot.” Johanna raised her head to look at Anderson as if she was quite considerate to the children.
“Daddy, I want to go to the zoo.” Sophia still pestered Anderson. She hadn’t given up. Anderson didn’t look at Johann or Sophia. Instead, he gazed at Catherine deeply.
“If you are worried that I might take away the kids, it’s unnecessary.” Catherine smiled in mockery. “I won’t do anything of which I can’t bear the consequences.”
Anderson sneered. “You know your limitations very well now.”
Catherine didn’t speak to him. Instead, she pulled Sophia’s and Lincoln’s hands. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to the zoo.” Sophia hopped up and down in excitement. She bowed at Anderson and said, “Thank you, Daddy.”
“Mommy, I want to see the tigers.”
“Sure. I’ll take you to see it.”
The three walked farther happily and harmoniously. Anderson realized that he couldn’t chime in at all.
He couldn’t get involved in them no matter how hard he tried.
Carefully studying Anderson’s expression in secret, Johanna felt quite uneasy. Shaking his arm, she said, “Anderson, let’s go back.”
Anderson withdrew his arm from Johanna’s hand. He shouted towards Catherine’s back, “Wait a moment. I’ll go with you.” Upon hearing it, Catherine frowned subconsciously. She looked back at him coldly and aloofly.
Looking at her reaction, Anderson’s face, which had become tender just now, was darkened again. He realized how much she didn’t want him to join them.
Approaching Catherine, he said in a cold tone, ‘I’ll keep an eye on you in person. If you dare to escape with the kids, I’ll break your legs.”
Catherine didn’t answer. She decided to let him do whatever he wanted.
They left together … a family of four.
Johanna was left at the entrance of the hospital, her eyes full of hatred and viciousness.
“Wait, Mr. Clark.”
Upon hearing her pitiful voice, Anderson turned around and said, “You have a shooting today, don’t you? I’ll call a cab for you to send you back to the filming set.” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Johanna was extremely reluctant. She had planned to kill Catherine and her damned children. However, if Anderson followed them, how could she carry out her plan?
While she was still hesitating, Anderson had already got her a cab. “Alright. Just go back.” Johanna sat in the car reluctantly. She forced a sweet smile. “Mr. Clark, Catherine, have fun!” Anderson nodded. Catherine completely ignored her, talking to her children.
Johanna looked aggrieved. She muttered, “Catherine still doesn’t like me.”
Casting a cold glance at Catherine, Anderson said, “Nobody has taught you how to be polite, right? Sophia and Lincoln have learned being rude from you.”
Catherine clenched her fingers, staring at Anderson proudly. “I know whom I should be polite with. For those who had evil intentions, I don’t want to waste my good manners on them.”
She proudly looked over at Johanna who still looked pitiful in the car. “Miss Scott, you’d better go back to the filming set as soon as possible. After, Mr. Wyatt Liam is not good-tempered.”
Johanna nodded in a grievance. “I agree with you, Catherine.”
“Please call my Miss Johnson from now on. Don’t call me Catherine. We are not that close.”
Anderson growled, “Catherine Johnson!”
Catherine ignored him, helping the kids sit in the car.
Johanna clenched her fists, her nails sinking into her flesh.
‘Catherine Johnson, you can’t be so arrogant for too long. I’ll let you enjoy your current moment,’ her inner voice said with hatred. The zoo in City W was far bigger than any zoos that Sophia and Lincoln had been to. Pulling Lincoln’s hand, Sophia was quite excited. “Lincoln, look! That’s the king of animals.
“So cute. I want to touch it.”
Catherine gently knocked on her head. “Do you think it’s a kitten? A tiger is quite dangerous.”
Sophia didn’t care. Raising her cute face, she said to Anderson, “Daddy, I want to raise a tiger.”
Anderson answered with a smile, “Okay.”
Catherine frowned. “Are you sure?”
“There’s an adoption offered in this zoo. I’ll adopt two tigers in the kids’ names. It won’t cost me much money a year.” Anderson bent over and held Sophia in his arms. “Tell me which two you like the most.”
It was the first time that Sophia was held by Anderson in this way. She was overjoyed. Instead of looking at the tigers, she hugged Anderson back and kissed his cheek.
She said in a soft tone, “Daddy, I love you so much!”
Anderson was stunned.
Upon hearing Sophia’s soft childish tone, he had a feeling that he had never experienced before surging in his heart. At this moment, he felt like a real father.
Holding Sophia, his fingers trembled slightly.
Sophia didn’t sense Anderson’s abnormality. She pointed at a tiger cub and shouted, “I want that one. It’s the most adorable one!”
Anderson came back to his senses. Looking at Lincoln, who was standing next to Catherine obediently, he asked, “How about you?”
“No, thanks.”
Catherine squatted down. “Don’t you like tigers?”
Lincoln answered in a low voice, “I do, but I’ve had Snoozer from Mommy already.” His words poked at Catherine’s sore spot in her heart.
She hugged him gently.
Lincoln was so sensible that Catherine felt sorry for him.
After confirming which tiger Sophia wanted to adopt, they went to the staff of the zoo to go through the procedure. Anderson was quite rich, so the money was shortly transferred to the zoo’s account.
“Now you can name her, Sophia.” Sophia pretended to think for a long while, rubbing her chin. Then she declared loudly, “Her name is Flowery.”
Anderson was taken aback for a moment. He looked up at Catherine standing aside. “The two kids have inherited your ability to name the pets.”
Snowy, Snoozer, and Flowery.
What funny names!
“You must have put the biggest effort to name Sophia and Lincoln.”
Catherine looked a bit embarrassed. Indeed, she couldn’t come out good names. “Daddy, Uncle Owen has named us,” Sophia explained aside, “Do you like our names?” Anderson’s face fell instantly.
If he had known that their names were given by Owen, when he changed their surnames, he would have changed their first names as well.
When they were enjoying seeing the animals, Paul suddenly showed up nervously. He reported anxiously, “Excuse me, Mr. Clark. Miss Scott fell off the wire during the shooting. She has fainted and was sent to the hospital. Her agent said she has called you but you didn’t answer the phone…”
Anderson’s expression changed dramatically. “Hurry up. Send me to the hospital.” Whenever he was leaving, he was in a hurry, only leaving Catherine and the kids his receding back.
Catherine had been used to it, but Sophia was still upset. Looking at his receding figure, she asked unhappily, “Mommy, has Daddy fallen in love with another woman?”
Catherine squatted down and looked at her in the eye. “Daddy and Mommy are divorced, so it’s quite normal for him to fall in love with another woman. Just remember, we both love you very much.”
“No, he doesn’t love me.”
The little girl looked pitiful.
