Catherine’s POV
Leo immediately smiled. “Come and take a sit.”
I turned around and sat back down on the sofa. Blake lazily sat beside me.
I smelt his cool mint scent. It first spread to my nose, and then I felt that it also wrapped around my heart. My face was faintly burning, and I blushed.
“It’s about time. Turn on the TV and watch me live. I’ll go down now.” After saying that, Leo tidied up his clothes and walked out the door.
Leo left just like that. Immediately, I felt that no matter how empty the space was, it was still hard for me to breathe, since only Blake and I were left alone in the room.
On the other hand, Blake was calm and composed.
Blake turned on the TV, and we watched the live stream in the hall downstairs.
The hall was already filled with media reporters. As soon as the elevator doors opened, they immediately aimed their cameras at the two people who came out holding each other.
It was Leo and Jessica.
Leo’s thin lips curved into a charming smile.
“Mr. Chavez, are you really dating Jessica? When did you get together?”
“Not long ago… Just a few months ago.” Leo answered immediately.
“Jessica, what do you like about Mr. Chavez? Is it his tall and handsome appearance, his attitude towards work, or something else that attracts you?”
Jessica just let out a smile and said, “I just feel that … he is a nice man.”
“Anything besides that?”
Hearing this, Leo hugged Jessica even tighter and said a little wickedly, “Can you stop with all the questions? There are some details that we can’t share with you.”
“Then may I ask, Mr. Chavez, about the online rumors yesterday, what is your relationship with that woman?”
Leo instantly froze a bit.
“She is King Blake’s girlfriend.” after a few seconds, Leo replied in a low voice.
The reporters were in an uproar again.
The big news that Leo announced was explosive, and the media reporters had a keen sense of smell.
“Mr. Chavez, can you tell us more about the relationship between Blake and his girlfriend? I believe everyone wants to know.”
“Yes! Tell us more.”
Leo became more indifferent. “Sorry, I’m not at liberty to tell you anything about that. You may leave. That’s all for today.”
The reporters wanted to go forward and interview Leo, but they were stopped by his bodyguards.

Jessica followed Leo into the elevator.
1 pointed to the girl who had been held tightly by Leo and asked, “Isn’t she Jessica? Is she really dating Leo? They look like a perfect match.”
Blake smiled. “It’s just for the hype. They aren’t a couple.”
“Is that so? Are they doing this just to clarify Leo’s relationship with me? Isn’t that too big a price to pay?” I saw Jessica’s stunned expression.
However, Blake curled his lips and said, “It’s just acting. It is what Leo is best at. No need to make a fuss about it.”
I recalled what had happened carefully and then nodded in agreement. “You’re right. Leo was very good at acting. He almost got me.”
“Let’s go. I’ll take you to the office.” Blake stood up.
I stood up as well. Beside him, I looked even more delicate.
When I reached the door, the door was pushed open from the outside. Leo came in.
“You’re leaving?” Leo’s thin lips curled up as he asked casually.
Blake followed me and said in a low voice, “She has to go to work. I will give her a ride.”
“Blake, I’m sure reporters will be cramming in front of Catherine’s company in a while. You guys should watch out,” Leo reminded kindly.
Blake just smiled faintly and said, “I wanted them to have something. Otherwise, why do you think I would send her
myself?”
1, who was standing outside the door, was slightly stunned when I heard Blake’s words. I felt that my heart was trembling slightly, and I couldn’t help but be moved.
I didn’t know why my heart was beating so fast, but I simply couldn’t control my feelings anymore.
Leo was stunned, and then he smiled self-mockingly. “Blake, you seem to have a plan for everything.”
Blake walked to my side and said in a low voice, “Let’s go.”
I silently followed behind him and headed for the elevator.
“Is that the reason why you insisted I take your car?” I finally knew the reason why Blake did that. Somehow, I felt a little out of breath
Blake’s deep gaze swept over my face, and he chuckled. “Kind of. Leo has already publicized our relationship, so we should at least give the reporters something to write about.”
“Can you stop them from making things up? I’m afraid that … things might get tricky.” I had always been very low-key. I didn’t think I could adapt well to the sudden change brought by Blake.
Blake raised his eyebrows. “What do you want me to do?”
“Just give them a heads-up. Tell them to stop all the massive coverage,” I said in a low voice.
“OK. Anything you say,” Blake said in a deep and magnetic voice, which made my heart tremble again.
My heart was in a mess, and I was in a trance as I walked forward.
