I’m Sorry But I Love You

Chapter 75

Catherine became exhausted while weeping. She lay prone on the table.

Owen poured her a glass of warm water and handed her some pills.

“Take your medicine and have a rest. You push yourself too hard,” Owen said with a sigh, “I’m always there for you, Catherine.” Catherine nodded. After taking the pills, she gradually calmed down.

Raising her head, she looked at Owen. “Owen, what can I do for you today?” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Nothing actually. I’ve moved to your next door,” said Owen casually.

Catherine frowned. “You should know Anderson Clark more or less. I can’t change your mind, but please be warier of him.” It wouldn’t make any sense if she still insisted on driving Owen away.

He was a stubborn man, and he wouldn’t be willing to leave her.

Owen answered, “I know what I’m doing.”

Catherine nodded. Dragging her tiring body, she stood up. “I need to take a nap.”

Last night, she had been tortured for almost a whole night. When she slept, she couldn’t relax at all. Now under the effect of her medicine, she felt so sleepy that she could hardly keep her eyes open.

“Go ahead.”

They were too familiar with each other, so neither of them needed to be too polite.

Catherine went back to her bedroom. Looking at her children’s photo on the nightstand, she smiled faintly. On the other said, Johanna, who was in the middle of recording a program, was called out by her

agent. “What’s the matter?” Johanna asked in a bad tone.

“Colton Miller has been locked up. It was Mr. Clark’s bodyguard who personally sent him to the detention house. I also followed them there. Colton was quite seriously injured, and his leg was broken,” said the agent in a low voice.

Johanna didn’t care about it at all. “I see. Just warn him again to keep his mouth shut.” The agent nodded. Looking hesitant, she said, “Probably he would be in jail for six months or a year. He asked me to give him

more money. He said two hundred thousand isn’t enough for him to cure his leg. He asked for another three hundred thousand. Otherwise, he threatened that he would tell the truth to Mr. Clark.”

Johanna looked annoyed. “Give him another three hundred thousand and ask him to shush then.”

After the agent left, Johanna recalled that Catherine was still in Ziting Villa while she was driven home last night. She wondered if Mr. Clark had punished Catherine already.

After Catherine woke up again, it was already noon.

She was about to wash her face and go back to her work. As soon as she opened the bedroom door, she smelt the strong smell of the chicken broth.

She walked to the kitchen.

Leaning against the door, she saw Owen cooking with a pink apron on. She curled up her lips into a smile. “Don’t you need to work today?”

Owen put the food into the dishes. “Were you woken up by the dishes? I don’t need to work today. Tidy yourself up for lunch. It’s almost done.”

Catherine nodded. After she had tidied up herself, Owen had finished cooking and served the dishes.

Catherine looked at the four dishes with one soup on the table. “I haven’t eaten the food you cooked for a long time. I’m almost drooling.”

Owen poked her on the forehead. “I didn’t find anything in your fridge but the chopsticks from the takeout. Have you been eating take-outs in recent days?”

“Just occasionally,” Catherine lied.

Owen didn’t believe her at all, but he didn’t expose her lie. “Let’s eat. I’ll be staying next door from now on. Welcome to eat in my apartment.”

He knew what she was worried about. Deliberately, he distanced himself from her so that she wouldn’t be so oversensitive. Catherine didn’t realize Owen’s intention. She was enjoying the dishes cooked by Owen in person.

‘I like this sweet and sour pork!

“The chicken broth is so delicious. You are truly good at cooking.”

To Owen, Catherine was quite generous to praise him.

Seeing that she enjoyed lunch so much, Owen curled up his lips into a smile. “Eat me. You are so bony!” “You are talking like my mother,” Catherine said with a smile. After speaking, she was taken aback for a moment. “Try this vegetarian three delicacies. Don’t just eat meat,” Owen changed the subject.

Neither of them mentioned what happened just now. After lunch, Owen went back to his company, and Catherine went back to her study, drawing.

In the desperate life like a nightmare, she could only find a sense of security while working. When she drew a word brush by brush, each character created was alive in her heart.

She browsed the comment area. A few lovely readers were discussing the plots. Some of them praised that it was quite attractive. Occasionally, someone said the way of narration looked like October’s.

This world was a lamp of hope in her heart. It made her see the hope of life… There were still beautiful things in this world. How could she think about dying when her depression broke out?

Catherine smiled bitterly.

Her new comics were quite popular. She hadn’t finished one-third of the plot outline, the editor, Doreen, contacted her for publishing the first comic book.

‘I’ve been following the data flow of your comics. It’s pretty good. I believe the book would also be a bestseller.”

Catherine was overjoyed. “Thanks. I hope so, too.”

“One more thing. It’s almost New year, and we’ve decided on the annual party. It’s on December 20th. Please join our party. The venue is Sky Club.” It was their boss’ own territory.

This year would pass soon, wouldn’t it?

Catherine looked out of the window subconsciously. All the trees had no leaves already, only the branches swaying in the cold wind.

“Remember to join the party. Everything is on the company. After New Year, we’ll also have an overseas trip,” Doreen said.

Catherine agreed. In the past, she was afraid that Anderson would discover what she was doing, she had never joined any company annual party although she had been drawing the comics for several years.

She knew a few people in the circle. But she had never met them in person.

Because of Anderson, she had shut herself up. All through these years, besides the friends she used to know before and Ethan, she hadn’t made any new friends at all.

The performance of Misty’s first season was pretty good. For a moment, the team also became famous and rich. After attending a meeting in the company, Simon called Catherine directly.

‘I’ve just finished the celebrating meeting with coworkers. Let’s have dinner together. Some managers in the company also want to meet you and discuss the cooperation next time.”

Simon’s tone was full of happiness.

Catherine had planned to refuse. This script was almost stopped because of her, and even the company went bankrupt, but neither Simon nor the management of this company blamed her at all.

She was quite appreciated to this company.

Catherine asked about the venue and time. She checked the watch … there were still a few hours before the appointed time with Simon, so she got back to work again.

When it was almost the appointed time, Catherine put on a formal silk cheongsam, a coat, and a scarf. Then she left home.

As soon as she walked out of the door, she felt the freezing wind. Immediately, she hailed a cab and told the driver about the destination. When she arrived, there were a lot of people in the private box already.

“Sorry, I’m a bit late.”

“No. You’ve just arrived on time. We arrived here earlier than planned,” Simon answered with a smile.

“Are you October? You looked more beautiful than you were in the video online.”

Catherine said with a smile. “Thank you.”

“Come on. Take a seat, please. Thanks for your original comic book. Otherwise, Misty wouldn’t be so popular.”

‘That’s because everyone is hardworking. I truly didn’t do much.” Catherine meant it. A lot of original books would be ruined every year, but the program based on her book was a success. She was quite delighted.

However, the second season’s sponsor had become Anderson and the actress was changed to Johanna. She still felt quite worried.
