I’m Sorry But I Love You

Chapter 68

Everyone at the scene was looking at Anderson.

Although he didn’t have a sweet tooth, it was his children’s birthday banquet. Anderson knew what he ought to do. He took over the cake from Sophia’s hands.

Sophia asked the servant for another piece and handed it to Catherine. “Mommy, you too!” “Thank you, Sophia.” Catherine took it over and kissed her.

The farnily of four looked quite harmonious for some reason. Though she was standing next to Anderson, Johanna had a feeling that she was excluded by them.

The banquet was quite grand, but in the later procedures, almost it was the time for the adults to socialize. It had nothing to do with the kids.

Catherine followed Lincoln to check on the puppy. The puppy grew pretty fast. It had become obviously bigger than it used to be a few days ago. “Mommy, I do take good care of it.” Lincoln squatted in front of the puppy with a smile. “His name is Snoozer. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“Snoozer wanted to sleep with me, but the servants didn’t allow.”

When mentioning the puppy, Lincoln finally looked like a child instead of keeping a calm and cold face. Looking at him, Catherine felt quite joyful.

“Mommy, could you please sleep with me tonight?” With the birthday cake in her hands, Sophia requested in a soft voice. “I miss you so much. I haven’t slept with you for a long time.”

Catherine felt sore.

“Mommy, could you please? It’s my birthday today.”

Catherine nodded. “Let me ask them if I can take you guys with me for a day.”

“Oh, Catherine, here you are!”

A joyful voice was heard behind her.

Catherine’s smile suddenly faded away. Looking at Johanna who was behind her, she felt quite annoyed. “Lincoln, please take your sister to play somewhere else,” Catherine said gently.

Although he was worried about Catherine, Lincoln took Sophia away obediently.

With a naive smile, Johanna continued, “Catherine, Mr. Clark has promised me that I’ll be the next Amanda.”

It turned out Catherine hadn’t convinced him, but she was not surprised. Probably she had been used to the fact that Anderson always hurt her like this. She just felt a bit disappointed.

He had never considered her feelings. Catherine slightly curled up her lips. “Congratulations, Miss Scott.” Her indifference was out of Johanna’s expectation.

The calmer Catherine was, the more uncomfortable Johanna was. “Miss Johnson, no matter how good you try to cover. I guess you won’t feel so happy since your work would be destroyed by someone you dislike.”

This was the first time that Johanna showed she disliked Catherine so openly. Catherine pressed her lips, falling into silence.

Seeing that she didn’t answer, Johanna smiled complacently. “I actually don’t like that role at all. However, as long as I have it, you’ll be very unhappy, especially it’s Anderson who personally informed you that I’ll be the one to play this role.”

In terms of appearance and charisma, she couldn’t compare with Catherine. However, she was more advanced in terms of Anderson’s doting.

Johanna was overjoyed. She circled Catherine and added proudly, “As the first daughter of the Johnson family, you are so pitiful. I guess you looked down upon an infamous actress like me before, but now, you were stomped by me.”

“Johanna Scott, you are so pathetic,” Catherine, who kept silent for a long time, suddenly retorted. She cast a cold glance at Johanna and looked into her complacent eyes, “Do you think Anderson Clark asked for this role for you? Don’t flatter yourself too much. You should know it clearly … this role was asked for Isabella Johnson by Anderson Clark.

“You are a smart woman. But you are not that intelligent. You’ve known Anderson long enough. Don’t you know who the one that he cares most about is?” Catherine chuckled. “You are so complacent to being another woman’s substitute. This is truly the first time I’ve seen such a person like you.

“You are just a substitute. How arrogant you are! Do you think you’ll have the chance to become Mrs. Clark?”

Probably Johanna didn’t expect that Catherine would mention so directly that she was just a substitute, the smile on her face vanished.

Suddenly, as if she had seen anyone, Johanna bit her lower lip, tears welling up in her eyes. Her weeping face made her so pitiful.

Catherine ran out of her patience. She decided to bypass Johanna and walked away. When walking in front of her, Johanna fell suddenly.

Catherine reached out and helped her up. Looking at her with a smile, she whispered in Johanna’s ear, “Isabella Johnson was. extremely good at playing such dirty tricks.”

Johanna’s face was stiffened. She felt a sharp pain from Catherine’s pinch on her arm when Catherine was helping her up. “Catherine Johnson, what are you doing?” Sure enough, they heard an angry roar from behind.

Catherine turned around and saw Anderson stride over. With a sneer, she pushed Johanna into his arms. “What do you think? Think I’m bullying her, huh?”

When Johanna was pushed over, Anderson held her subconsciously.

Johanna took the chance to nestle in his arms. She said in a grievance, “I’m fine. I didn’t keep my balance just now. It was Catherine who has helped me up. Please don’t shout at her.”

As soon as she heard her words, Catherine realized how vicious her words were.

She wasn’t in the mood to deal with such a hypocritical woman, so she looked at Anderson with a smile. “There are surveillance cameras everywhere in the Clark’s Mansion. Send a servant to check the surveillance, and you’ll know what has just happened, won’t you?”

Johanna heard Catherine’s words, and her face paled.

Immediately, she said to Anderson, “Mr. Clark, it’s not a big deal. Please don’t bother.”

Her tone was so anxious that even Anderson sensed something wrong. His gaze became colder when looking at the woman in his arms.

Catherine chuckled. It was not that she didn’t know how to cast a bone between two persons, but she just disdained to use such dirty tricks.

The Clark’s Manson has not surveillance system installed at all. She just tricked Johanna so that Johanna was scared and could expose her flaw.

“Have fun with your new date.” Catherine handsomely waved at Anderson. After taking a few steps, she looked back with a smile. “Don’t play too hard. You still need to visit Isabella’s tomb.”

Anderson gazed at Catherine’s receding back deeply. It seemed that after she returned to town again, he could often see her back…

It had never happened before. Usually, it was Catherine who watched his receding back when he left. Anderson suddenly felt slightly uncomfortable.

In the end, Catherine failed to take Sophia and Lincoln back home with her. She accompanied them in the Clark’s Mansion till the dark and then hailed a taxi to go home.

Lying on the bed, Johanna’s complacent face while she told Catherine that Anderson had given her the role of Amanda kept flashing in Catherine’s head.

She had to admit that she indeed felt so sad.

Catherine closed her eyes, looking quite upset. Anderson wasn’t like this several years ago. When she bumped into him, he didn’t blame her at all. Instead, he smiled at her.

His smile was so bright like the sunshine. At that moment, Catherine’s heart hammered.

Later, when she was pestering Anderson, though he was so cold to her, occasionally, he would smile brightly at her. Occasionally, he would bring her breakfast.

When they saw the homeless kitten on the street, he accompanied her to the pet hospital as well. Even though he was allergic to fur…

Catherine wondered what made her have a crush on Anderson. Probably his bright smile like the sunshine reached gave her such a deep impression.

In the Clark’s Manson…

Anderson was called over to the study by Bentley.
