StarNovelWhile this was happening, Sharon Lindt was sitting on the sofa, sipping on smilk which she had poured into a European coffee cup.
The mouth of the cup had a golden ring, and it shone beautifully under the light.
As soon as Catherine Batton walked in, Sharon's face turned serious. "Catherine Batton, chere right this instant!" Catherine immediately picked up her pace. Her face was almost pale from fear. As she stood in front of Sharon, she lifted both hands in a 'surrender' pose and widened her eyes. In a quivering voice, she said, "Mom, I know that I should be studying properly. I shouldn't have secretly cback to play. I've done wrong so please forgive me..." Looking at the sight before her, Sharon felt like laughing but she managed to maintain her strict facade. "And?" "So... Please don't be angry alright? I promise that I'll go back to studying after two days. I won't cback unless it's during the holidays. I swear that I won't ditch my studies to cback hunless it's absolutely necessary." Catherine said all this with a serious face as she looked at Sharon with teary eyes.
As soon as she finished her last word, John Batton burst through the door hurriedly.
Catherine had called him for help earlier, and he rushed has soon as his photo shoot was done.
His face was still in full makeup and he was still wearing the props he had on while doing the photo shoot. He almost looked as if he was a painting that had cto life.

Ever since they were young, Catherine knew that she could count on Josh and Stanley to cto her side to protect her if she got into any trouble.
Both her brothers loved her unconditionally and would always cto her aid when she needed them. Josh walked up to Catherine's side. "Mom, she knows that it was wrong for her to cback, but she's still young and can't help herself from playing around. Please try to understand." As soon as his sentence ended, Stanley entered the room as hurriedly as Josh had.
Stanley looked at the three of them before sitting beside Sharon.
Even though Josh had makeup on, his aura was still weaker than Stanley's.
"You siblings are always such a handful. Catherine's been spoiled rotten by the two of you since you've always protected her whenever I tried to scold her. It's because of that that she's so carefree and always does whatever she wants." Sharon sighed.
"Her studies are going well. Being carefree doesn't affect it." "This isn't about how well her studies are going alone. Students should behave like proper students. Being good at studying doesn't validate her to skip classes. If everyone did the sas her, schools might as well close down." Sharon shook her head, maintaining her strict tone.
In reality, her heart had softened the moment she saw Catherine. Her brothers' intervention only softened it even more.
But she needed to teach Catherine a lesson. Otherwise, she would just repeat her past mistakes. The thought allowed Sharon to maintain her strict and tough facade.
Catherine had been hiding behind Josh all this tand she peeked her head out from behind him. She continued acting like a helpless child. "Mom... I know I've done wrong. It won't happen again, I promise." "I can't even remember how many promises you've broken..." Sharon scowled, frowning.
"This tI'm serious, mom. I missed you. I want to hug you..." Catherine started talking like a child to try to win her mother over.
In truth, her mother really doted on her.
However, wrongdoings are wrongdoings. She could not afford to be too lenient with her daughter anymore. She needed to be punished.
Therefore, she had to be strict with herself to not forgive her daughter so easily.

"Ok..." Catherine nodded.
"If this happens again, I'm punishing you according to the family rules," Sharon added.
Catherine nodded again before slowly moving to Sharon's side and hugging her arm. "I promise I won't do it again."
Sharon was at her limit. She couldn't keep acting tough and she gave up. She hugged Catherine back. "You're already eighteen years old, when are you going to stop relying on others so much?" Sa'h the Find_Nøvel. et website on Gøøgl to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"I'm reliant on others because so many people dote on me... You can't blme for being this way...
Catherine smiled as the unease in her heart faded. Josh let out a sigh of relief. "Alright, I need to get back to my photo shoot. Catherine, take good care of mom." Stanley got up as well. "I'll be taking my leave as well." "Wait a minute, I need to tell you two something," Sharon said as she looked at the brothers.
