Chapter 37 Her mother-in-law
It was not that easy to soften Cathy's heart. But at Amy's words, Cathy showed empathy abruptly, feeling like Amy was her own kid.
Amy cried a long time and she just felt like relieved from all the hatred. Her mind was all cleared up.
At this moment, Amy realized that she made a mistake. This beautiful noblewoman was not her mother.
"I am sorry, madam. I was mistaken you as someone else." Amy sat up straight.
Amy slipped out of Cathy's hug and Cathy felt a little hollow in her mind. Cathy had three sons and one daughter. But the only daughter was very boyish and didn't hug Cathy like this before. Being hugged by a girl like Amy, Cathy felt very comfortable too.
"It doesn't matter. You can treat me like your real mother. I had four children. Isn't it just perfect to be your mother?" Cathy looked at Amy with motherly love.
Amy smiled shyly, but she suddenly realized that this noblewoman must be a relative of the owner of the house. 'Was she my mother-in-law?'
"Yes, Madam, you came here to visit someone, right?" Amy cleaned her face and wiped out all the tears.
"What should I say? I supposed I was here to visit someone. But he was not here. Since he wasn't here and we are so agreeable with each other, we should have a nice and long talk." Cathy held Amy's hand, looking at this skinny girl.
"No problem. I will get you some water." Amy stood up and Robin came with a glass of water.
"Madam, here is your glass of water." Robin put down the glass.
"Amy, why don't you stay and chat with madam? Do you want to have lunch here, madam?" Robin said to these two women, and they were still holding hands.
Madam was very picky but she liked Amy very much, which meant that Amy was actually a very lovely girl.
Even for the master's ex-girlfriend, madam didn't treat her so warmly.
"No, I don't want to have lunch here. I will have a talk with this girl and then leave." Cathy said to Robin.
Then Robin left. Cathy cleared Amy's messy hair up.
"Are you Amy?" Cathy chatted with Amy.
"Yes, Madam, may I know your name?" Amy asked Cathy.
"Well, I am a relative of the owner of the house. I came here to talk to him. But he was not here. Don't tell him that I have been in here. This is between you and me, OK?" Cathy didn't want her son to quarrel with her again so she asked Amy to keep this as a secret.
"No problem. I will not tell him absolutely," Amy promised.
Cathy found that this girl was very fun and they have talked about everything for one hour and more.
"Look, we are getting along so well with each other. I didn't even realize the time have passed quickly. I need to go home now. Amy, tell Robin if you need anything. He will manage to do everything you asked for. Remember, you deserve it. You are the madam in this house," Cathy said to Amy when she was leaving.
"OK, got it, Cathy. I am not a guest in this house." Amy thought that she liked this noblewoman very much. Cathy was beautiful and so kind.
At the first sight, Amy defined Cathy as a gentle kind woman, but later in the future, she would see how fussy Cathy was.
Cathy also warned Robin not to tell Richard that she had come here to visit her daughter-in-law.
It was weird to visit the daughter-in-law in a secretive way.
Cathy left and Amy felt much better.
"Robin, I want something to eat. I am so hungry," Amy said to Robin.
Robin heard about that, and he went to get it ready immediately. It was a big surprise. Madam Cathy came and eased Amy's worry.
Richard sat at the bar, drinking the liquid. In front of him, there were many empty bottles.
"Richard, what is wrong with you lately? Aren't you busy? Why would you have free time to buy me some drinks?" Kevin was also drinking wine. And while he was drinking, he was waving to the beautiful lady at the bar.
"If you are not happy with me getting you the drink, you can pay the bill." Richard ordered another bottle of wine again.
Although the wine was not very strong, Richard had drunk many bottles.
"No way. You pay for the bill, Richard. I was wondering whether you have met something that bothered you. You will never come to a bar to have a drink before. And what's more, you would never let other women touch your clothes before but now you let your secretary wear your favorite shirt. You have decided to forget Allison?"
Kevin saw Richard's chilling face. Though Richard was one of the richest men in R city, he was always cool, so no one dared to get along with him.
So many people wanted to have sex with him but he declined every time. He would not look at women for a second, except his first lover Allison.
But lately, things had changed. What was happening to him?
"How come you talked so much? You only need to drink the wine and chase after the girls. And then I will pay the bill. Just enjoy it!" Richard realized that Kevin was right but he didn't admit it.
"Well, as you said so, I will go make some friends now. You stay here and drink the wine then." Kevin heard what Richard said. He couldn't wait to leave. Everyone in R city knew that Kevin was a true playboy. Walking around in the bar, Kevin didn't meet any suitable woman. He always thought of a girl whose face flushed with anger. Her shiny eyes impressed him deeply.
Feeling not so interested, Kevin went back to Richard, sat next to him and drank some wine.
"What happened? You are not interested in the beauties today?" Richard laughed at Kevin.
Kevin was a playboy but that was actually fake. Everyone saw Kevin messing with many women, but no one would know that he was still a virgin.
"Yes. I seemed to lose interest in all these women. Last time, I met a fun girl in your company but I don't know her name." Kevin felt it a pity.
"My company? You saw all the women in my company before. Why would be interested in them now?" Richard realized that as long as Amy was not mentioned, he felt a lot better. "Maybe she is a new comer. She is not very beautiful but a little irascible, which impressed me a lot!" Kevin thought about the fight they had that day, feeling secretly happy. Richard gave Kevin a mean look. Kevin loved all kinds of women and the relationship would only last for a few days. No one would believe that he would fall in love with a girl.00000
