My Mate Has Two Wolves

Chapter 139

Catherine's POV

I listened to Melinda's words and was shocked by what had happened. Blake acted so quickly!

Then I told Melinda about my encounter with the rogue.

Melinda asked with concern, "Is your injury serious? I'll give you a few more days off. Have a good rest."

"It's nothing serious. I just got a scratch on my arm. It has been dealt with. I don't want to ask for leave. I'll go back to work tomorrow." I still had two important projects on hand, and I had to deal with them.

"Cathy, Guy was taken away by the wolf pack guards. Does it have something to do with this accident?" Melinda wondered.

I sneered and said without any sympathy, "Vanessa must have dragged him into this on purpose. I believe the Gamma of the royal pack can give me a reasonable explanation as to whether he was complicit."

"If Guy did hold a grudge against you, it's probably best to keep him out of the company. You should talk to King Blake about it. He can make Guy go away with just an order." Melinda seemed to have long disliked Guy.

"Melinda, if Guy is out of the picture, I think you'll be the successor. I can talk to Blake about that, too," I said with a smile.

When Melinda heard this, she was slightly shocked. "Me? Cathy, are you serious? Are you really going to let King Blake promote me?"

Melinda had helped me so much, and I was genuinely willing to help her by doing her a favor.

"Yes, Melinda. I will try my best to help you. My life in the Design Department will be counting on you after you become the boss," I joked.

"Cathy, thank you so much. For real. If I do get a promotion, I will be very, very grateful to you." Facing an opportunity to be promoted, anyone would be tempted, not to mention that Melinda had been in the Design Department for eight years already.

"Melinda, stop. There's no need for that." I felt a bit awkward.

"Fine, Cathy. You can do whatever you want from now on!" Melinda said with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, I heaved a sigh of relief. I would do my best to fulfill the promise I made to Melinda.

It seemed that I would have to ask for a favor from Blake again.

How should I tell him?

I thought to myself that I should bring this up to him tonight.

The driver drove smoothly all the way and soon sent me back to the villa. When the car passed through the forest road, I found that the area had been cleared, and there was no indication that there had been an attack.

After the car stopped, I got down alone and asked the driver to go back.

As soon as I reached the door of the villa, I saw Blake's friends whom he had taken me to. They were Howard's sister, Eda, and Benjamin.

"Eda, let me walk with Ash for a while. You've been carrying her for more than an hour. You must be tired," Benjamin said as he walked

"hold Ash? I need to check on Eda's ankle."

I quickly held Ash, who was still crying, in my arms. "Leave her to me. I'll fix some formula for her. You can go ahead and take care of Eda."

"Thank you, Catherine!" Eda was grateful to me.

I smiled and said, "Sure!"

I was very good at coaxing kids. Ash, who had been crying miserably, was suddenly quiet the moment she was in my arms.

Benjamin squatted down and reached out to take off the high heel on Eda's injured foot.

"Stop... Maybe I should do it myself." Eda quickly took off her high heels.

Benjamin was a little embarrassed. His face was slightly red, and he looked at the place where she was injured anxiously. "It's all red and swollen. Let's go to the wolf pack doctor."

"But Ash..." Eda was worried about her niece.

Benjamin trusted me with Ash. He said, "Eda, Catherine will take good care of Ash. You can rest assured. I'll call Howard right now and ask him to come back."

I also agreed that Benjamin should send Eda to the pack doctor. They could leave Ash to me. I could take care of her.

After I fed Ash, she fell asleep in my arms, still holding a milk bottle in her hand.

She looked just like Hedwig when Hedwig was still a baby. I could not help but smile.

When Howard rushed back to the parlor, he saw me holding Ash.

asleep and sitting on the sofa, checking my phone.

I saw Howard come in and made a hush gesture to him. I whispered, "She has just fallen asleep."

He slowed down, walked over, and gently took Ash from my arms. "Thank you!"ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

He did not forget to express his gratitude.

I chuckled and said in a low voice, "Ash is very cute!"

When Howard heard his daughter being praised, as a father, of course, he was happy.

"That's right. She is just like me! I was also very cute when I was a child!" Howard even praised himself.

I chuckled.

"Hedwig and Noah are coming back. I'll take her upstairs to sleep. Otherwise, she might be woken up!" Howard took a look at the watch on his wrist, feeling the need to separate Ash from the rest of us.

He had no idea that it would be a long night tonight for him, since Ash would torture him by refusing to sleep.

At almost five o'clock, Noah and Hedwig were brought back by Dowen.

As soon as they came in, I saw one of Noah's eyes red and swollen. I immediately exclaimed, "Noah, what's wrong with your eyes? Did you fight with someone?"

Hedwig immediately answered, "He didn't! Noah fell off his chair."

Noah looked at Hedwig with disdain. "Mommy, I didn't fight."
