I'm Sorry, But I Love You novel Chapter 8

With a loud slap that reverberated across this office, Catherine slapped Anderson, which did not vent all of her anger, “Payback? How can you put Isabella’s child and Sophia and Lincoln side by side?”

By mentioning Isabella’s child with her children, she felt an immense humiliation to Sophia and Lincoln.

Anderson licked the corner of his mouth as a bloody taste started to spread in his mouth.

“Catherine, don’t you think that I am thinking too highly of you?” Anderson reached out and strangled her, “In my eyes, you aren’t even qualified to help her wear her shoes.”

“Oh.” Catherine let out a disdainful snort, her gaze a steely sharp one, “If you think I can’t even help to wear her shoes, what are you doing now? Are you slapping yourself across your own face? Why are you taking away the children given birth by me?”

“We are not qualified to be honoured by you, so I hope you can let our family reunite, Mr. Clark.”

She was not only beautiful, but her words were sharp and witty.

Every single word that came out of her mouth dealt a major blow to him and make him bleed.

Anderson pinned her on the door and stared at her with an frosty gaze, “The reason I’m not doing anything to you is because I am thinking for the children’s sake. Don’t try to provoke me, you can’t afford to bear the repercussions.”

With her throat getting squeezed by him, Catherine said with difficulty, “What… do you… want from me so that the children can come back to me?”

Anderson was feeling annoyed because the little ones were looking for their mother at home, and in his company this woman was looking for her children. As their father, he was a nemesis to them, and the more he thought about it the more his face loses its warmth.

“There will be a business banquet at night. You will come with me to attend.” Anderson suddenly invited her, but the moment he spoke those words, he regretted them. How could Catherine qualify to be his partner?

Catherine was thrown off by his sudden invitation. After revealing self-deprecating smile, a sudden surge of sadness came from within her heart. She had been in love with this man for many years, but all the time she was like a rat scurrying around in the dark, never to see the light of day. He hated her so much so he never brought her along to any public occasions.

Now she no longer loved this man, but he invited her to accompany him to attend a banquet. Everything was so ridiculous.

Anderson couldn’t stand seeing Catherine’s spiteful and stubborn and headstrong expression. He spoke coldly, “Although you disgust me, but at least in this circle, your face is still acknowledged by some. Coincidentally you can be of some use.”

Catherine who was quick on the uptake immediately understood the underlying meaning of his words.

As if struck by lightning, she was stunned without being able to move for a few seconds. Her heart then started to ache, which slowly permeated to all parts of her body through the coursing of her blood.”

She imagined that she would cease to feel anything after a few years, but she found that her heart still ache after all those time.

She forced a smile on her face while she called out gently, “Anderson.”

Her voice was low and mellow, and in an instant Anderson thought that time had turned back to a few years ago when she was calling for him to have dinner. He subconsciously answered back, “What’s the matter?”

“Time doesn’t make you more cultured; instead it makes you look even more shameless.” Catherine replied with sarcasm.

Anderson’s face immediately darkened, and his depthless gaze was giving out a murderous aura. He jerked Catherine’s chin upwards and threatened, “Why, you don’t want to go? You can do that, but the children…”

“I’ll go.”

As long as she could get back her children.

A pair of gorgeous eyes burning with hatred was locked with another pair which was cold as ice.

The atmosphere around them was stretched thinly, as if a fight would break out at any moment. Suddenly, under such a tense ambience, Anderson’s phone rang.

Anderson let go of Catherine and took out his phone, “Hello grandma.”

“Andy, Sophia keeps on crying, shouting that she wants her mother. Do you think you can let Catherine come over to calm her down?”

Since his grandmother was already old, her ear was failing day by day. Fearing that the other party couldn’t hear her well, her voice was ramped up a lot, which was heard by Catherine on the side. Upon knowing that Sophia who was always cheerful was crying now, Catherine’s eyes became reddened.
