Chapter 92
Chapter 92
Lincoln didn’t take Anderson as his father, but biologically he was Anderson’s son.
Catherine held him tightly.
But uttered no words.
If Johanna was the one behind the car accident, she must do it because of Anderson.
“Have a sleep.” Catherine put Lincoln to sleep but she, staring at the ceiling, could no longer fall asleep.
She was recalling everything between her and Owen.
Catherine was not seriously wounded physically but psychologically. She stayed in the hospital for half a month and then left the hospital. When Anderson came to pick up Sophia and Lincoln, Catherine took the medicine in advance to calm herself down. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
“They witnessed the car accident, so after you take them home, you should not only keep them safe but also take them to see a psychiatrist.”
It was the first time that she showed so peacefully when Anderson took the kids away, but Anderson surprisingly felt weird. “Anything else?” Anderson rarely spoke such calmly.
“No.” Catherine bent to say goodbye to her children and then left without any hesitation.
This accident made her realize that she was not able to protect her children.
She was too weak to resist Anderson.
Perhaps, she would never get her kids back.
For the rest of her life.
If her kids really would never live with her for the rest of her life, she had to get used to the life without Sophia and Lincoln as soon as possible.
And Sophia and Lincoln had to get accustomed to the life without her as early as they can.
Anderson staring at Catherine’s back, feeling empty and hollow. Was she getting farther and farther away from him? Was it what he wanted?
Anderson had no answer.
Catherine came home for first time in half a month. There were many traces left by Owen at home. There were dinnerware that he bought and the fridge filled with food by him. His photos.
Catherine scanned them carefully and she didn’t break down probably because of the medicine. She collected all his stuff except for the photo on the bedstand.
He was smiling brightly in the picture.
She didn’t update her comic for half a month, so after finishing tiding the room and pulling herself together, she apologized to her editor Doreen and explained what happened.
Doreen replied immediately, “How do you feel now? Can you work now? If not, I can call in sick for you.”
“I can work.” Catherine took a stroke and tried to draw. The wounds hurt slightly when she moved too much, but she could stand it.
“Okay, the company’s annual party is held tomorrow. Don’t forget to attend it at the Sky Club.” Doreen told her in detail, “I booked you a room at the Sky Club.”
Catherine sat in front of the drawing board for whole day, drawing constantly. Only in this way could she temporarily forget those sad things.
Meow Comics’ annual party was grand. Perhaps it was because of Ethan, Catherine was arranged to sit in the front row where she watched those familiar celebrities speaking on the stage.
All pretty beauties.
“Meow Comics is surprisingly rich!” The girl seated next to Catherine exclaimed, “How can it be such awesome in its first year of establishment?”
“I heard that its annual party would invite celebrities and I thought it was fake news. I didn’t expect it is true.”
She kept saying for a while but didn’t get any response from Catherine, so she poked her at the elbow, “Why do you show no excitement?”
“I am excited inwardly.” Catherine smiled.
She had met many celebrities before, so the present celebrities were not special to her and she was not excited to see them. But she didn’t want to explain it to the girl.
The girl stared at Catherine in doubt, “I can tell that you are excited. But it is no surprise as you are as beautiful as those celebrities.”
“Thank you.”
“But why do you look familiar to me?” The girl touched her hair and asked in confusion.
Catherine was startled. She made herself up on purpose to avoid being recognized.
She smiled naturally, “You may be confusing me with someone else.”
The was unable to remember whom did Catherine resemble, so she scratched her hair, “Probably. I am Gianna.” Catherine knew this name and looked at her surprisingly, “It’s you.”
The girl looked so young that no one would have imagined that she was a mother.
Gianna was glad to hear what Catherine said, “You know me? Am I so famous?”
“You asked about the baby formula in the group chat and I told you the brand. You sent me your child’s picture in private.” ‘It’s you?” Gianna looked at Catherine excitedly.
She complained to Catherine about how tiring it was to raise children, “I didn’t have enough sleep for a few months and this time I forced my husband to look after the kid.”
“But sometimes when I looked at my baby, I would think he is worth the effort.”
Catherine smiled slightly. Yes, they were worth the effort!
“Let’s welcome Johanna Scott to the stage. Miss Johanna made her acting debut this year, but she has already showed up in many works. For instance, the latest popular Misty. Miss Johanna stars in the season 2 as Amanda Barnett…”
Catherine looked up when the MC called Johanna’s name.
Johanna smilingly walked upon the stage in a white dress. She wrote her name at the board and then looked down at the audience.
She saw Catherine seated in the front row and her face stiffened slightly.
“Well, does Miss Johanna find anything interesting?” The MC asked with a smile.
A suggestion of malice flashed in Johanna’s eyes and then she smiled at Catherine, “An acquaintance.” Before the MC could ask, she continued, “I didn’t expect that the author of Misty is here.”
As soon as she finished, the hall was in an uproar.
The attendees were almost all from the comic circle, though some may be from the media and the entertainment industry. They all knew why did the author of Misty withdraw from the playwriting.
Taking drugs was not a small matter. The present media sensed something unusual and pointed their cameras at Catherine on hearing what Johanna said. Looking at what happened, Johanna was laughing up her sleeve.
“Ms. Johnson, how dare you enter the drawing circle again with a new identity. Nasty painters like you should be banned!” Someone was screaming furiously.
Johanna enjoyed the scene on the stage. Catherine glanced at her calmly.
There was no emotion showed in Catherine’s eyes, but it sent chills up Johanna’s back. Johanna felt a sudden thrill of foreboding.
The attendees became more and more angry.
If had it not been the security guards, they would have come Catherine.
However, Catherine, who was at the center of the noisy dispute, was surprisingly calm and sat there motionlessly.
Johanna was eager to destroy Catherine and she couldn’t control herself, “Ms. Johnson, don’t you want to give an explanation?”
Catherine stood up slowly and gave a dazzling smile towards the cameras.
