Ch 17.
Catherine went inside her home and agreed to the marriage proposal
Her father looked surprisingly happy with this arrangement
...and was already looking forward to their wedding
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
So, you agree, dear?
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
That's wonderful 😊
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
When is your wedding?
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
It would be better if it's in a few months
Catherine Willows (FL)
(😶)
Catherine Willows (FL)
(it's obvious that my father really hates Derek...)
Catherine Willows (FL)
(coz he never asked this when I said he proposed me)
Catherine Willows (FL)
...
Catherine Willows (FL)
(some people have such a great intuition...)
Catherine Willows (FL)
(can I borrow that skill for at least 15 years?)
Jaxson Fresco (ML)
If you don't mind, we can arrange it in a month
Catherine Willows (FL)
(hold on, what?!)
Catherine Willows (FL)
(that early?!)
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
Spectac-
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
*started coughing
Both Catherine and Jaxson looked at Ronald in concern
Jaxson Fresco (ML)
*frowning
Catherine Willows (FL)
Dad...why don't you go to the doctor?
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
*laughing
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
I don't need a doctor
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
They are all scammers.
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
They will make you sound like you are terminally ill when you are perfectly healthy😂
Catherine Willows (FL)
...
Jaxson Fresco (ML)
It's better to make sure you aren't ill, though, Sir
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
I am not
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
don't you worry
Jaxson Fresco (ML)
*frowning even more
Catherine Willows (FL)
*looked at Jaxson and noticed his extremely worried expression
his brows were furrowed and he looked like he wanted to say something, but didn't know how
Catherine somehow understood what he wanted to say, so she sat beside her father and looked at him with serious...but also pleasing eyes
Catherine Willows (FL)
Father...you have been like this for months
Catherine Willows (FL)
You took some medicine thinking you have a fever...
Catherine Willows (FL)
And it didn't help you at all
Catherine Willows (FL)
what if it is something more serious?
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
I think you are wo-
Catherine Willows (FL)
Dad...please
Catherine Willows (FL)
*held his hand with both of hers and looked at him pleadingly
Catherine Willows (FL)
visit a doctor
Catherine Willows (FL)
Can you do that for me?
Ronald looked at her, trying to refuse her pleas
But he couldn't do that when his daughter was asking him so urgently
Ronald Willows (FL's step dad)
Guess it won't hurt me... *sighed and gave her an encouraging smile
Catherine Willows (FL)
Thank you, Father😊
Catherine looked back at Jaxson and saw his face relax
He sighed in relief and Catherine couldn't help but wonder...
Whether he knew something that she didn't know of
