Chapter 52
Chapter 52
“Mommy is an excellent woman. It’s normal that men are chasing after an excellent woman.” Lincoln looked Anderson into his eyes. “You and Mommy are divorced. Mommy didn’t destroy others’ marriages or cheated on you. Why should we blame her?
“Isn’t it you who cheated on Mommy while still marrying her to be blamed? “No matter whom Mommy would marry eventually, I’ll support her. Of course, you are the only exception.” When Lincoln spoke, he didn’t care about Anderson’s expression at all.
Anderson had never been scolded by anyone in this way before. His deep eyes became cold. His face turned between livid and pale from time to time, and finally, it was darkened. The temperature in the car also dropped.
Paul found it so hard for him to suppress his laughter when listening in front.
Lincoln had an indeed sharp tongue.
For some reason, Paul also felt quite delighted when hearing his words.
Although Sophia didn’t understand what her brother was talking about, she clapped her hands to fully support him. Anderson was speechless.
He suddenly recalled that his son was educated by Catherine, so Lincoln hated him the most.
She got plenty of the saved drafts and the website started to promoting her words. Catherine relaxed a lot. Before going to bed, she checked her cell phone and saw the comics drawn by her were promoted in a chat group. Hence, she checked the discussion in the group by the way. All of the members were discussing why the website of the girls’ comics started to promote the reasoning comics. Besides, the comics were promoted before being published. They were wondering if the painter was a famous one with a new ID, or he or she had anything to do with the website.
Catherine browsed their discussion, but she didn’t speak in the group. By the update deadline, she also updated ten chapters of comics according to the editor’s requirement.
After updating, she refreshed the comments on the website anxiously. After all, she had changed her drawing style and the website to publish her comics. She wondered if the users of the website would be interested in the reasoning comics since they had been used to the girls’ comics.
Her major in the university had nothing to do with drawing or painting. It was all because she needed to live on and she couldn’t attract Anderson’s attention. She had to choose to draw comics. Later, she became like this business more and more. Based on the little foundation she had and some lucks, she had gained good returns in three years. Now, she just restarted it all over again. Hence, she couldn’t stop worrying.
However, the data of the website wasn’t updated at any time. No matter how many times Catherine refreshed, she couldn’t see the detailed data. She didn’t go to be until midnight.
In the early morning of the next day, as soon as she got up, she browsed the data again. Then she talked to the editor about the data.
The editor answered, “It’s brilliant! Your book had the highest rate of flow.” Confirmed by the editor, Catherine finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Within this month, you must update the comics twice a week. In one month, you can change to update them once a week.”
Reading the editor’s message, Catherine realized that this requirement for updating meant a heavy workload for a green hand. It was a heavier workload for her because she was the only one designing the plots and drawing.
However, she still agreed. After all, it was so difficult for her to be recommended. Catherine read through the comments. After seeing that most of them were quite friendly, she finally rested assured. When she
was about to concentrate on drawing, her cell phone rang.
Catherine unlocked the screen and checked the caller ID. It was Ethan’s phone number. He was her boss, so she must answer his call.
“Hello, Mr. James. What’s up?” Ethan said in a lazy tone, “Come to Sky Club tonight.”
Catherine agreed. Ethan looked quite fierce, but she had a good impression on him. It might be because that he had helped her when she was harassed in Sky Club last time. It was also probably because that he had offered her a job. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
After drawing the comics at home for a whole afternoon, Catherine tidied herself up at dust. Then she hailed a cab to Sky Club.
In Sky Club, the colorful spotlights were shining. Young men and women were venting their energies that couldn’t be vented anywhere else. Catherine had planned to go to Ethan’s office to find him. After a thought, she guessed that he might be hiding in a corner sleeping or reading the comic book.
Hence, she texted him.
After it was done, Catherine felt an arm wrap around her waist. When she was about to dodge from it, she heard a whisper in a lazy tone in her ears.
“Don’t move.”
It was Ethan’s voice. Catherine gaped at him.
Ethan curled up his lips into a smile and said, “Anderson Clark is here.” With his smile, others thought that he was sweet-talking with Catherine.
Upon hearing Ethan’s voice, Catherine stopped moving. She also curled up her lips into a smile. “What grudges are there between Anderson Clark and you?”
Ethan didn’t explain. With a smile, he said, “I just don’t like him.”
Since he didn’t want to tell her, Catherine didn’t want to ask more about his privacy. She reminded him, “Well, no matter how intimate we are, he wouldn’t be pissed. He doesn’t like me at all. At the most, he would think that I don’t deserve to be my children’s mother.”
Catherine’s smile was wry.
Ethan stared at her deeply, and inwardly he didn’t agree with her.
However, he didn’t speak it out. “With such a beautiful date, I don’t care if he’s pissed or not.”
Catherine was quite speechless to his attitude.
Ethan held her waist and walked to the sofa where Anderson was sitting on. Then he sat down opposite Anderson openly and pulled Catherine to sit down next to himself.
The air immediately became intense.
They were in a small circle. Almost everyone sitting around Anderson knew Catherine who was sitting next to Ethan and that she was Anderson’s ex-wife. They exchanged glances with each other, but nobody had the guts to speak.
Anderson’s gaze fell on Catherine, looking expressionless. Nobody knew what was in his mind.
Under such an awkward atmosphere, Joshua was always the one who broke the ice, and this time there was no exception. Joshua looked at Catherine awkwardly. “Hi, Mrs. Clark. Here you came.”
After greeting her, Joshua wished that he could slap himself across his face.
He didn’t do so, but Aurora had already slapped him across his head. “Catherine, please don’t mind my brother. He’s just a stupid asshole.”
Joshua heard Aurora’s words, but it was rare that he didn’t fight back.
The atmosphere around them had become so weird. Ethan wasn’t impacted at all. He picked up a cherry and pressed into Catherine’s mouth under her gaze.
When Sienna saw Anderson, her eyes lit up. “Andy, you are really here. I thought it was my illusion,” she greeted him in a coquettish tone.
Anderson looked up and glanced at Sienna. He said in a deep voice, “Come here.”
Sienna was joyful. She swung to sit next to Anderson, clinging to his body.
A trace of disgust flashed through Aurora’s eyes.
Anderson let Sienna cling to his body. With one of his hands wrapping around Sienna’s waist, he looked quite intimate to her. Catherine didn’t know if Ethan’s tactics had stimulated Anderson, but what Anderson was doing had stimulated her.
Ethan didn’t change his expression at all. He still smiled like a gangster. “Oh, I suddenly recalled when I see Mr. Clark’s girlfriend. Catherine and I should thank you, Miss White.”
Sienna couldn’t understand what Ethan meant, looking at Ethan in confusion.
“Miss White, if it weren’t for you, Catherine and I wouldn’t have the chance to get our sweet moment shot.” After finishing his words, Ethan lowered his head and looked at Catherine affectionately. “Catherine, do you think we should thank Miss White?”
