I'm Sorry, But I Love You novel Chapter 58

Catherine paused, and then kept walking as if she hadn’t seen him.

Owen said, “Hi, Catherine.”

Their friendship with the childhood playmates could disappear all of the sudden. Catherine felt so sad, but she gritted her teeth to ignore Owen.

When Owen came here, he didn’t expect that he could meet Catherine. Noticing her attitude, he didn’t speak anymore. His clear and gentle eyes became dimmed when watching her disappear from his sight.

Since the incident that Lincoln and Robinson got into a fight, Lincoln’s head teacher, Hannah, had a quite good impression of Catherine.

Seeing that Catherine came to Jiaye International Elementary School, Hanna asked with a smile, “Are you here to see Sophia and Lincoln?”

“Yeah. How are their studies recently?” Since she wasn’t staying with the children, she couldn’t get to know things that happened to them at any time.

“Lincoln has always been the straight-A student. A few days ago, a teacher asked him to do a set of examination papers from Grade 5. Unexpectedly, he did everything right. Our teachers were kidding him and asking him to skip some grades.

“But much to our surprise, he refused. He said he wants to be with Sophia.” As soon as mentioning Lincoln, Hannah smiled brightly. “But, Sophia’s scores are not so good. In the past, Lincoln tutored her, so she could remain in the top ten in her class. But in the latest quiz, she had regressed to the top twenty only.”

Catherine frowned. Although Sophia’s scores were not as good as Lincoln’s, she was always within the top ten of her class under the tutoring from Lincoln and Catherine. This was the first time that her scores regressed.

Looking at her, Hanna comforted her, “Please don’t worry. Probably she just didn’t do well in this quiz. It would be fine if you tutor her more.”

Catherine nodded. As soon as the class was finished, Hannah called Sophia and Lincoln to the office. They were quite happy.

However, the break between the two classes was way too short. Catherine had to reluctantly see Sophia and Lincoln go back to class.

On the way back home, Catherine went to buy some daily necessities from the supermarket. Unexpectedly, she bumped into Sienna when she was waiting for the bus.

Sienna looked more haggard than she did before. As soon as she saw Catherine, she held her head high like a rooster.

Looking at her, Catherine couldn’t help laughing.

“What are you laughing of?” Sienna said arrogantly.

However, she made herself look so pitiful in Catherine’s presence. “Nothing,” Catherine answered.

Sienna was burning with a frenzy of rage. “Think I don’t know what you are laughing about, huh?”

Since Catherine just had a reunion with Sophia and Lincoln, she was in a good mood. After hearing Sienna’s words, she wanted to tease Sienna. Looking at Sienna in mockery, Catherine asked, “Why did you still ask if you know it?”

Sienna was rendered speechless. Then she said, “Catherine, you’d better not be so complacent! I can’t win Anderson’s heart at this moment only, but it doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t be able to do it in the future.”

Catherine nodded in agreement and said, “It’s no use to say those words to me. You should say them to Johanna Scott.”

In her opinion, besides the children, she had nothing else to do with Anderson right now. She just wondered why Sienna was always against her.

In Sienna’s opinion, only Catherine deserved to be her rival in love. After all, no matter how down and out Catherine was now, she used to be a celebrity in the upper-class back then. However, Johanna was just an infamous actress in the entertainment business. Sienna looked down upon Johanna’s family background.

Sienna chuckled and said, “Now Anderson is doting her just because she looks like Isabella. Wait and see. Her ordinary family background wouldn’t allow her to get into the Clark family.”

Catherine shook her head in disagreement. She knew Anderson very well. If he liked her, he wouldn’t care about the person’s family background at all.

Back then, when Anderson wasn’t strong enough, he had to give up and marry her while being forced by the Johnson and the Clark families. Now, Anderson almost had all the power of the Clark family in his hands, so he wouldn’t let anyone threaten him again.

However, Sienna continuously made trouble for her and set her up. She almost dragged the Torres family into the mire. Catherine wasn’t a goddess either.

Hence, she wouldn’t tell Sienna about those facts.

Catherine chuckled and said, “Suit yourself. If Anderson Clark and you get married, I’ll send you my best wishes.”

Sienna was surprised at her free and easy attitude. Frowning deeply, she asked, “Have you truly let go of him?”

Catherine didn’t answer. Let go of him?

How could she? There were peoples’ lives, love, and hate between Anderson and her. Probably she wouldn’t be able to let go of him all her life.

However, she was still quite weak for the time being.

She couldn’t resist at all.

On the other side, Johanna walked into Anderson’s office with a smile.

As soon as she walked in, a few secretaries lowered their heads and whispered to discuss.

“I guess it’s certain. The infamous actress will become Mrs. Clark.”

“She has a good face, looking exactly the same as Miss Isabella Johnson who has died.”

“Speaking of that, I feel sorry for Miss Catherine Johnson. She’s truly beautiful.”

“What can we do? Our CEO doesn’t like her.”

Arthur came out from Anderson’s office. After a cough, he said, “Go back to your work! What are you talking about? You don’t have enough tasks, do you?”

The secretaries all shut up instantly.

With blushed cheeks, Johanna stood in front of Anderson. “Mr. Clark, I don’t have shooting today, so I decided to come to visit you.”

Looking at her, Anderson smiled. “Okay. It’s alright. Please have a rest on the sofa. If you need anything, just call Arthur. After my work is done, let’s go shopping for your dresses.”

Johanna nodded obediently. She looked at Anderson, a trace of hesitation flashing through her face.

Anderson asked, “What’s wrong?”

Looking quite shy, Johanna said, “Mr. Clark, you’ve been hard working. May I give you a massage?”

Anderson creased his brows slightly. He wanted to refuse.

“It’s a technique I’ve learned for my new movie. Mr. Clark, you can have a try and give me a comment. I want to see if I’ve fully occupied this skill.”

Johanna looked at him expectantly. Anderson couldn’t say no when looking at her eyes. He nodded in agreement.

“If you’re tired, just take a rest over there. You can also go shopping.”

“I’m not tired.”

Johanna immediately walked behind Anderson’s office chair. Putting her hands on his shoulders, the girl’s gaze fell on Anderson’s face.

He looked so handsome.

He was better-looking than another that she had met before.

He was more mature than the boys of her same age. Nobody could resist his charm.

He was handsome, rich, and doting her so much. How could she not fall in love with him?

Johann’s heart hammered, looking at Anderson obsessively.

When Hudson pushed the door open and walked in, he saw such a scene. He coughed and said, “Excuse me, Mr. Clark.”

Anderson looked up. “Why are you here?”

Hudson took a glance at Johanna behind Anderson. “We’ve got something new about Miss Catherine Johnson. I came to report the progress to you.”

Upon hearing him mention Catherine, Anderson recalled that night, in the dark, she was like a temptress, attracting his attention and leaving ruthlessly.

Hudson looked at Johanna unfriendly. He said in a cold tone, “It’s about the company’s confidential information. Miss Scott, please leave the office.”

A trace of embarrassment flashed through Johanna’s face. Biting her lower lip, she looked at Anderson in a grievance. “Mr. Clark, I’ll go out for the time being then.”

Although she said she was leaving, she moved pretty slowly. Looking at Anderson reluctantly, she looked obviously that she was waiting for Anderson to keep her stay.
