“No.” Lincoln held the book in his arms tightly and his face somewhat darkened, “I’ve promised you that
you can change my name however you want.”
“You better think it that way.” Anderson started the car engine, “Get in.”
After Owen returned to City A, Catherine surfed the Internet and found a house that she could move in
without having to buy furniture or anything else. She then moved out of Owen’s villa in City W.
Regardless of what Owen said in which he would stay with her through thick and thin, she really did not
want to get him involved.
She had a hunch that she would not be able to bring Lincoln back within a short time. She contacted
the school and changed Saphia’s school to the one in City W. Her financial pressure of living increased
all of a sudden.
The duration that Catherine worked also became longer and longer.
“October, the contract is finalized. No love scene is needed but the price will be slightly lower than the
previous one. Sign the contract if you’re okay with it.”
Seeing the message from the editor, Catherine was still quite surprised, “It’s okay. I’ve expected that.”
She was really appreciative that someone dared to buy her work without requesting love scenes.
“There is another good piece of news for you.” Lydia was also very happy, “They want to hire you as a
playwright!”
“Really?” Catherine could not believe it as it was rare to see someone who bought copyrights hiring the
original author as a playwright.
“Entirely true. After all, the script and the comics are all your output so they really acknowledge your
strength. Their team is in City W, I’ll give you the contact details of them, you can contact them
yourself.”
Seeing that the movie copyright was sold, Catherine heaved a sigh of relief. After all, she did not need
to be that anxious about her financial status anymore.
Lydia sent the contact details to Catherine. Catherine immediately contacted the person.
“The project will start immediately. You come to 1408 of Hualing Tower at 8.30 a.m. on Monday for a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmeeting.”
Catherine was stunned for a moment when she heard Hualing Tower. Wasn’t it not far from the Clark
Tower?
“What’s wrong? You’re not free at the stated time?” Catherine regained her presence of mind, “Nope,
I’ll definitely go there.”
“Mommy, hasn’t Lincoln beaten the bad guys yet?” Sophia twitched her lips while doing her homework
in displeasure, “Lincoln isn’t here, I don’t know how to do it.”
‘It ll take a long time to beat the bad guys. How about this? Let Mommy teach you, okay?” Catherine
deliberately did not mention Lincoln in front of Sophia. This was the first time that these two children
separated from each other for so long since they were given birth so Sophia mentioned Lincoln almost
every day.
“I miss Lincoln. Mommy, why can’t I get through Lincoln’s phone?” Sophia had countless questions
about Lincoln in her mind, “Why doesn’t he call me either, is it that he doesn’t love me anymore.”
Catherine knew clearly that it must be because that Anderson restricted Lincoln’s action but she still
comforted Sophia, saying, “Your elder brother doesn’t have time to call you as he’s beating the bad
guys. When the bad guys are beaten completely, he’ll call you.”
“Okay.” Sophia felt depressed, “If Lincoln forgets to call me after completely beating the bad guys, and
he’ll have to buy three ice creams for me.”
Hearing this, Catherine had a complicated mood, “Come, read the textbook. Mommy will take you to
eat out after you finish your homework.”
It was a reward for successfully selling the copyright.
Hoping to meet Lincoln, Catherine deliberately chose the restaurant where Anderson brought Sienna
to, which was also the restaurant where Anderson often went to. But to her disappointment, she did not
see Lincoln there.
In the box on the upper floor, the moment Sienna saw Catherine, she thought that she had seen it
wrongly. She rubbed her eyes and took a look carefully. After she was certain that it was Catherine, she
looked at the man opposite her while smiling, “Andy, I’ve seen Catherine.”
On the side, Lincoln’s eyes lit up and he looked down.
Anderson frowned.
“Catherine comes alone?” Sienna said with a smile, “I originally think that she comes with Mr. Torres
but now, it seems like it isn’t. Andy, do you think we should invite Catherine to come up to eat?”
Lincoln looked at Anderson expectantly.
“Andy, although you and Catherine have divorced, with Lincoln and Sophia around, you two can still be
friends.” Sienna looked gentle and magnanimous, “After all, Catherine has also found a man who can
give her happiness.”
Anderson’s face turned cold and looked askance at Sienna who was opposite him, “What nonsense
are you talking about?”
“Ah!” Sienna covered her mouth in shock, “Andy, you don’t know that Catherine and Mr. Torres are in a
relationship? This matter is discussed widely on the Internet. See, they look so happy. The netizens
say that they’re made for each other.”
Sienna took out her phone, swiped, and showed a Weibo post to Anderson.
In the photo, the woman and the man were sitting side by side on a chair, holding the same kind of ice
creams in their hands.
They were grinning from ear to ear and their happiness was so intense that one could feel it by looking
at the photo.
“Golden couple!” “They look so happy, right? Look at the way the man looks at the woman, oh my God!
It’s definitely true love.” “They’re perfectly compatible!”
When Anderson was looking at the comments, his face turned colder and colder. He threw the phone
to Sienna and looked at Lincoln beside him who was still looking down, “Sit properly and eat.”
Lincoln was full of reluctance. This was the first time he revealed a pleading look while looking at
Anderson.
“Lincoln, don’t forget what you’ve promised me.” Lincoln gritted his teeth and his eyes that lit up
darkened again. He obediently sat in his seat.
“Andy, don’t treat Lincoln so strictly, he’s still a kid,” Sienna advised gently with a pair of eyes that
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmobviously showed happiness.
Anderson looked askance at her, “You also shut up.” Sienna froze. After realizing that Anderson was
talking to her, her face burned in embarrassment.
Catherine had not seen Lincoln for more than a week. She ate very slowly, hoping to meet Lincoln
there. However, until the end, she still did not meet him. Dejected, she took a cab to go back.
When she just left, Lincoln followed Anderson and got in a luxurious car and they left.
“Are you going to get married to that woman?” This was the first time that Lincoln took the initiative to
talk to Anderson.
Anderson slightly frowned, “It’s none of your business, kid.”
Lincoln pursed his lips and wanted to speak but he still did not speak in the end. Even if he was really
mature, he was still a kid.
At this moment, he wrapped his arms tightly with some grievance.
Time flew. It was the day that Catherine had to go to Hualing Plaza for a meeting.
Catherine brought her computer and kept reading the previously written plots in the cab.
“Tsk, tsk, I never expect that I’ll run into Mr. Clark’s car one day!”
Catherine was immersed in her plot. When she heard of ‘Mr. Clark’s car’, she thought she had heard
wrongly, “Mister, what did you say just now?”
‘I said that the cat at the front is Mr. Clark’s car. The one with five 8s on its license plate. This is the
morning rush hour so it’s bound to have a traffic jam. Don’t ask me to drive fast. If my car runs into his
car, even if I sell my body for the rest of my life, I also can’t afford to compensate!”
Catherine was helpless. She opened the car window and looked out. Indeed, the car at the front was
Anderson’s, “Mister, you stop and don’t move, I want to get out of the car.”
At this moment, the cars were moving like tortoises. Catherine opened the car door while holding her
computer and directly got out of the car. She ran forward.
During a traffic jam, even if Anderson’s car was exceptionally luxurious, it also could not move.
Catherine ran to Anderson’s car and knocked on the car glass.
“Miss, you can’t afford to compensate for knocking down it!” The cab driver shouted at Catherine
worriedly.
Catherine did not bother, “Anderson, open the door, I know you’re inside.”
The driver was in a dilemma, “Young master, should I open the door?”
