Ex-husband, Please Respect Yourself

Chapter 76: I'd Like to See You

It was a little late. So they ordered a table for dinner in a nearby restaurant.

"Mom, I'm going on an errand tomorrow. You have to take good care of yourself at home these days." Cathy looked up at her mother when eating.

"On business?" Her mother's face changed, and she raised her head to say, "Either refuse it or I'll go with you."

Compared to work, her daughter must absolutely be more important. she was pregnant and still ran around to work, did she want to frighten her to death? Cathy, "......"

"No, I can not refuse it."

Her mother took care of herself, and smoothly picked up a piece of meat for Mila. "Then go back and buy a ticket for me." She said coldly.

Cathy touched her head, "I'm going to work, not to travel. What are you doing with me?"

"Do you think I want to follow you? If you are not pregnant, your mother, I would join a tour group to have a trip now."

п

Cathy really wanted to roll her eyes at her mum. If she travelled alone, she might not go out of Chicago.

Knowing that she was worried about her, she explained, "I am not alone. there are two assistants. And I just went on errand for just a few days, and there would be nothing else to do. Don't worry and I will call you at any time to report my whereabouts, OK?"

The mother frowned and took a firm attitude, "No, your two assistants don't know you are pregnant so that when working they cannot tread the path. If there is something wrong with you, what should I do?" Pulling her hair, Cathy put down her chopsticks helplessly, drank some water and said, "What will my colleague in the company think if I take you on a business trip? How can I explain to them?"

Her Mother twitched her mouth careless, "It's easy to explain. you just tell them I want to have a trip in New York and you just take me with you. I won't follow you all the time.

Cathy really did not know how to refute her mum. She only put her hands around the table and stared at her mum.

Keeping in silence for a long time, Matt suddenly burst into laughter.

Only being busy with quarreling with her mum, Cathy now remembered that there was another person beside them. She smiled at him and shook her head helplessly. Looking Cathy's mother, Matt advised, "Don't worry, aunt. I can go to New York to visit her at any time. And she will be fine."

The mother immediately shook her head, "How can I bother you time and time again? You still have to work."

"Not at all. My job is to travel all over the country. I can go to New York to see her and return in the same evening."

Cathy's mother looked at him, seemingly changing her mind, "Really? Will it trouble you too much?

The man lowered his head and wiped the daughter's mouth. He looked up at Cathy and smiled slightly, "No, Cathy is now pregnant with two babies. I'm also worried about her. How can I just stand by." Cathy stiffly pulled her lips and began to eat again, pretending not to hear him.

Naturally, she wouldn't bother Matt, but now it was crucial to persuade her mother first, and then as for other thing, she would talk with Matt privately.

Still hesitating, Cathy's mother looked at her daughter, and then nodded as if she didn't think it would cause any trouble. "That's all right. You can go and I will not worry. As long as she's not alone in other city, I'm at ease."

Cathy lowered her head and ate the dishes. Hearing what her mother had said, she pouted her mouth and muttered in her heart, "Sure, she is really my mother. Whatever others say is more useful than her own daughter."

Showing her a look which signified he had helped her deal with the dilemma, Matt smiled and said nothing more.

Cathy also looked at him gratefully.

At the end of the meal, the silence was suddenly broken by the ringing of the mobile phone of Cathy.

She took out her cell phone in a hurry and turned it on. Once seeing the notes, her facial expression froze.

Her mother looked at her sideways, "Who's calling so late? Can we eat or not?"

Cathy looked calmly, "You eat first. I'll go out and answer the phone. Maybe there's something wrong with the company."

Not hearing what her mother was nagging, she stood up and went out quickly. She answered the phone when the bell was about to ring.

"Hello, Mom. Er, aunt."

The phone was called by Tyrone's mother, her former mother-in-law. Because she did not contact with her frequently, she also forgot to change the notes on her mobile phone. But, why did she suddenly call?

Was it a mistake?

"Cathy?" That was the voice of a middle-aged woman. Maybe she just wanted to confirm it.

"It's me."Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Where are you now?" Cathy couldn't judge whether Tyrone's mother was joyful or angry, but she was sure that the woman was kind from her voice.

Cathy was shocked and asked calmly, "Aunt, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Yes, there is something that I'd like to talk about with you face to face. Where are you now?"

Would she like to see her suddenly? She had divorced for so long. Why do she want to see her?

A sharp light flashing, Cathy's eyes were deep.

Was what she worried coming? Did she know anything?

Tyrone had promised that he would not tell anyone.

Holding the cell phone tightly, she said with a slight smile, "Aunt, it may be inconvenient now. I'm still outside. If you have anything urgent, please talk to me on the phone first. There still will be ten minutes." "Outside? Why are you outside so late?" Tyrone's mother seemed a little surprised, and then she said quickly, "Where are you now? I'll go and find you, too."

Cathy gently interrupted her, "Aunt, if you don't have anything urgent, I'd better hang up first. Let's make an appointment another day?"

"Er, Cathy......"

Without giving her a chance to refute, Cathy hung up and looked down at her cell phone. Her face slowly cooled down and his eyes were too dark be penetrated. Why did she suddenly want to see her? If she didn't know anything, she would never call her initiatively.

Was she trying to make sure whether she was pregnant or not? Or how many months?

After thinking over for a while, she quickly dialed a series of numbers, but she hesitated for a few seconds when calling and then she deleted them all.

Fine, forget it. Anyway, I was going to New York tomorrow. It could not be clearly explained on the phone.

Putting away her cell phone, she turned around and returned to the restaurant.
