Chapter 342

　　Catherine's POV 　　Blake went to work early the next morning. 　　Suddenly, my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and found that it was Halsey. I was very glad to receive his call. "Halsey, why are you back so suddenly? You should have told me in advance." 　　"It was a last-minute call. Can we have dinner together tonight? It would be even better if you could bring the kids together with you," Halsey said gently. 　　I hesitated for a moment and then whispered, "Let me ask Blake. If he doesn't want me to bring the kids out, I will come alone." 　　"Alright. See you tonight." Halsey hung up the phone. 　　Then I called Blake and told him about the call with Halsey. There was a bit of displeasure in Blake's tone. "Is he back?" 　　"Yes. Can I bring the kids to eat with him?" I asked him nicely, wanting to know his opinion. 　　"At a time like this, I don't think you should take the kids out." Blake still blamed Halsey. 　　I didn't insist. "OK then. I will go see him alone. I will be back early."
