Catherine answered it. "I'll be back soon." Then she hung up the phone and didn’t leave Leslie any chance to say a word.
She didn't want to hear him, nor see him.
She didn't know if Leslie had helped her with Nora.
Every time Catherine thought of that woman, she would feel a bit uneasy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe drove the car and suddenly wanted to check it. She dialed the number Nora had used the other day.
"I'm sorry, the number you dialed has been canceled.” Canceled? Catherine was slightly stunned and then breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Leslie had taken care of her.
While driving, she couldn't help feeling distracted.
The old days she had had with Nora came to her mind, making her angry and frustrated... That was her mother? She didn’t deserve to be a human being! Catherine drove back to her apartment and saw Leslie the moment she got out of the elevator.
She said nothing, ignored him, opened the door and went in.
The door wasn't closed and Leslie entered by himself.
He kicked the door close and hugged Catherine from behind.
Catherine instinctively wanted to resist when Leslie hugged her more tightly, "Cathy, | have handled you such a big trouble, shouldn't you be more active? You are mine now and | don’t think | need to remind you that.” "I'll take a shower first." Catherine grabbed his hand and wanted to take a deep breath and be mentally prepared. It was disgusting.
Leslie pushed her down to the bed, "It's okay. | don't mind.” The sky had turned dark...
In the Saunders family, upstairs in a bedroom.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMya had just put away her picture book. She sat cross-legged on the bed, staring at the poster of Finnley like a fan. She had stared at it many times today.
"Miss." Mya turned her eyes and saw Paula at the door with a plate of food, looking at her with a smile.
"Come in.” Paula walked in, "Have the steak. Mrs. Saunders asked me to deliver it to you.” "Well, put it there.” Mya was still busy enjoying the photo.
Paula had just put down the plate, turned her eyes and saw the big poster. She was stunned. So, this was what Mr. Russell came to deliver in the afternoon? Well, a couple in love was really romantic.
Paula smiled and went downstairs.
Shirley saw her and asked, "What is she doing?” "Madam, your worries are completely unnecessary. Ms. Saunders seems happy." Paula couldn't help saying, "She's sitting in bed looking at a poster.” "What?" Shirley frowned, "That poster of Spencer? She's not tired of it? It's such a huge poster.” "It's not Spencer anymore. It's Mr. Russell's poster, an even bigger one.” Shirley quickly put down the teacup and got up, looking worried, “What have | told her?” "Madam..." "Didn't she listen to my words at all?" Shirley frowned, "Men only love women that are hard to please. It's the first day of their relationship and she’s already hanging big poster of him? What would Finnley think if he knew?” "Madam, Mr. Russell brought the poster here himself," Paula quickly explained.
Shirley stared at her, "Are you sure?” "Yes, | was there," Paula said with a smile, “Mr. Russell was jealous of Spencer. Your worries are not necessary?” So... She thought too much? "Madam, | think Mr. Russell really cares about Ms. Saunders." Anyway, Paula loved seeing the two together.
"It's only been a day." Shirley was very calm, "Men are fickle, only time could prove if he’s serious about Mya. | have to be careful in case my daughter got hurt.”
