Chapter 32 Why
“How could you not get what he meant? I guess you’re really too innocent. What he meant was that we
got connected to Mr. Walker because of you, Cath. That’s why he was willing to help us. Actually, I
think Luca is just being modest and letting you take the credit for it all.”
“Yes, Dad. Luca treats me the best. Have some more food, Luca,” Catherine mentioned and kept
adding food to his plate.
At that moment, she began to regret having mentioned Ryan in front of her parents. Luca had better
not say anything unnecessary anymore.
During the whole meal, Catherine had an incredibly tough time talking about more casual topics so that
it wouldn’t be too awkward.
Since she didn’t want them to have too many conversations with each other, she complained that she
wanted to go home right after the meal.
“Now that the two of you seem to get along so well and you’ve been married for two years, isn’t it about
time to consider having a child, Cath?” Winnie asked, right before seeing them off.
“We will, Mom. Don’t be so anxious about it. We will tell you as soon as there’s any good news,”
Catherine said casually. After listening to Winnie nag a little bit more, Catherine bid her father goodbye
and left.
While Luca drove, Catherine sat in the back seat.
The whole journey, he kept his eyes forward and looked indifferent as if sitting in the same car with her
was an insult to him.
“Why do you hate me so much, Luca? Is it because
I hurt Ryan before?” she asked in a straightforward
manner.
Glancing indifferently back at her delicate face through the rearview mirror, Luca mocked sarcastically,”
I think you know the answer to that question.”
Actually, it didn’t matter what tone he took when he talked with her. After all, it all definitely boiled down
to the fact that he either misunderstood something or she hurt Ryan too deeply. That was why he would
hate her so much.
At that point, Catherine planned to tell him the truth in exchange for his honesty.
“I had a car accident when I was 18 and I lost some of my memories. I hope you can tell me whether I
have been in a relationship with Ryan or if I have hurt him before.”
Suddenly, the car screeched to a stop, and, Catherine flew forward, slamming her head into the front
seat. Fortunately, the back of the front seat was soft or she would have suffered a concussion.
“Get out of the car. I don’t want to talk to people who are full of lies,” he uttered coldly.
“I’m not lying. I really lost my memory.”
“If you lost your memory, how did you end up finding Mr. Walker again? Are you going to say it’s a
coincidence or a miracle?” he asked sarcastically.
Upon hearing that, Catherine realized that there was no way she could clearly explain it anymore.
Two years ago, her mother arranged the blind date and told her that it was the president of Walker
Group, an eligible bachelor.
At the time, she had no idea that her family business was in dire straits so she kept trying to mess it up.
In fact, she still remembered that the blind date was on a Friday when they agreed to meet in a cafe,
but she ended up sitting at the wrong table and met Cayden by accident.
Sitting not too far away from them, Ryan saw Cayden casually holding her hand and confessing his
feelings for her.
Although Cayden was a doctor, he didn’t seem like an average doctor. Instead, he seemed to have a
bad boy vibe about him which instantly won her heart over.
That night, she went home blissfully only to overhear her parent’s conversation about the factory
closing down. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
Therefore, she decided to sacrifice her newly-budded romance and shamelessly ask to meet Ryan
again so that they could discuss the marriage thing. Unexpectedly, Ryan agreed to it without hesitation
at all.
The following Friday, they met at the cafe again.
When she saw Ryan, she recalled that he seemed familiar to her the last time she saw him. Initially, he
thought that the president of Walker Group would be a bald man with a large belly. Obviously, she
hadn’t expected that he would look so young and handsome. Before they talked about their terms, she
was already uneasy.
However, she still plucked up her courage to speak her mind.
“I want to marry you, but only if you are willing to invest in my father’s factory.”
“How much do you need?” Ryan asked directly so she would always remember it.
“Ten million. But after everything works out, you will definitely make a profit from the factory.”
