coming back

Oh, no Cathy green, jolted awake sitting up in the bed warm sunlight streamed through the as she gasped for air her body drenched in sweat

She had had that dream again!

Just like every other time in the past five years, she found herself lying on cold stone, helplessly watching Brown being swallowed by the sea, drowning in despair.Cathy green closed her eyes, trying to suppress the emotions bubbling inside her.

Just then, the bedroom door creaked open, and two little bundles of energy burst in.

"Mommy!"

One was a boy, and the other was a girl. Though they had different styles and personalities, both were incredibly beautiful.

Cathy expression softened immediately. "What are you two doing here?"

The girl, Sophia, struggled to climb onto the bed with her little legs. Feeling the cold sweat of skin, she asked with concern, "Mommy, did you have a nightmare again?"

Cathy smiled gently, "No, Mommy was just doing some yoga in bed and worked up a sweat."

But then came the cold, indifferent voice of the boy, Ethan green

"Mommy is lying! Exercising only speeds up blood circulation and makes your face flush, but yours is pale, so it’s obvious you had a nightmare! Did you dream about Uncle again?"

Cathy green was momentarily speechless.

These two kids were great in every way, except they were just too smart!

Years ago, she had been rescued and brought abroad. Initially, filled with hatred for Hank Howard , she planned to terminate the pregnancy.But once on the operating table, she had a change of heart.

She couldn't bear the thought of those cold instruments entering her body and crushing her child, so at the last moment, she fled and gave birth to both children.

Now, five years later, watching her two kids grow up—sweet, adorable, and possessing extraordinary talent and intelligence—she felt incredibly lucky.

Cathy green could no longer hide the truth from them. She smiled and said, "Yes, Mommy dreamed about Uncle again. His biggest wish is for you both to study hard and improve every day. So why did you skip class again today?"

The two little ones fell silent, their heads drooping in guilt.

Sophia , thinking she was speaking quietly, said, "The schoolwork is too easy. My brother and I learned it all a long time ago."

Cathy green frowned.

But Ethan , with a serious tone,added, "Actually, we knew you were coming back today, so we came to remind you."

Cathy green found it amusing. "What do I need to be reminded about?"

"Of course there is! First, when you return, you can't look at other babies. You will always be ours, just me and Sophia ."

Cathy green held back a laugh and nodded. "Okay, I promise. What else?"

"Second, if anyone bullies you, you have to tell us right away! You can't keep it to yourself."

A warm feeling washed over Cathy green as she nodded in agreement.

"Is there more?"

"Third, and most importantly! You must not develop any feelings for that man, even if he is our father. You need to do everything in your power to bring him down, ideally knocking him to the ground so he can never get back up!"

cathy was taken aback.The two little ones, Ethan and Sophia , knew a bit about her situation with Hank Howard .

It wasn't that she wanted to keep it a secret; it was just impossible to hide.

God knows how these kids, not even five years old, had picked up such advanced hacking skills.

What news couldn’t they find online? Even if Cathy tried to cover it up, they would eventually uncover the truth.So, she decided to come clean and told them everything she could.

cathy paused for a few seconds before nodding.

"I understand, but Ethan and Sophia , the reason I shared this with you is that I don’t want you to hear it from someone else later. You can't let this fill your hearts with hatred; that’s not good for kids, you know?"

Those deep-seated grudges were hers to bear alone.All she wanted was for her two children to grow up healthy and happy.Ethan nodded seriously."I understand."

Sophia chimed in, "Mommy, I know too!"

Cathy green smiled and gently ruffled their hair.

Just then, a servant suddenly appeared at the door.

"Cathy , Raymond is looking for you."

Cathy quickly replied, "Okay, I'll be right there."

Raymond was the man who had saved her five years ago and was the chairman of the sunshine Group, a significant figure abroad.

Thanks to his support over the past five years, Cathy had managed to establish herself and develop well in her career.

When she reached the garden, she saw Mr Raymond sitting in a wheelchair. At sixty two, his hair had already turned gray.

He had told her that he lost his legs in an accident thirty years ago, which also took his wife's life.

He saved Cathy because he found her features reminiscent of his late wife, stirring up many memories for him.Grateful for his life-saving help, Cathy had worked at sunshine Group ever since and had now risen to the position of vice president.

She approached him respectfully and said, Mr. Raymond, you wanted to see me?"

Raymond gestured to the seat across from him, inviting her to sit down.

"I'm heading back home this afternoon. Have you packed everything?"

"I have everything ready. The first thing I plan to do when I get back is to check in at the company and prepare a rough development plan."

Raymond waved his hand with a smile.

"No need to rush. Let me show you something first."

As he spoke, he picked up a tablet from the table and pulled up an image to show her.

"Do you recognize what this is?"

Cathy green took a glance and froze "This... this isn't...?"

"It's the discarded design you created two years ago, and now it's the summer collection of the country's top luxury brand, moonlight. Surprised, aren't you?"

Cathy's expression changed slightly.

Although she had studied business management back home, she had taught herself fashion design after arriving abroad and had become a leading figure in the industry. That discarded design was something she had casually uploaded online just to see what people thought, never expecting it to be plagiarized.

"Moonlight is a major brand under the Howard's family consortium, and their new collection launch is set for tonight."

"Cathy green, I know you have a history with Hank Howard . This trip back home is not just to help me develop the business; it's also a chance for you to get back at the Howard family."

"I'm not going to stop you, but I hope you won't let this harm yourself. Consider this a small gift from me before we part ways. I hope it resonates with you."

Cathy felt a jolt in her heart, looking at Raymond in disbelief.She certainly wanted to get back at Hank Howard . Five years of suffering couldn't be in vain, and Brown death couldn’t go unpunished.

But she thought this was something only she knew. Little did she expect...Cathy green pressed her lips together for a moment before saying, "I understand. Don't worry, I'll take care of the company and won't let this interfere with work."

Mr Raymond, however, was indifferent. He waved his hand, signaling for Blair to leave.

The flight was scheduled for 3 PM. Given the importance of this trip back home, she couldn't bring the kids along, so she had to leave them behind for now.

The two little ones accompanied her to the airport, feeling very reluctant to say goodbye.

"Mommy, you have to think about us often, okay? Don’t forget about us!"
