CHAPTER ONE-HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN

CATHERINE'S POV

It was really a heated argument I had with Burke it made me break down emotionally, I was terrified, I left him right there in the room ran into the garden, and started to cry like a baby born yesterday, I mean how could he, all this year's all I have done is show love to Burke and he repays me by treating me this way killing Jaxon because of his love for Hayley or his Ego that Hayley said she was carrying his child and things turn sideways she is not carry his child, that's supposed to be a blessing on our side, that's supposed to be a way to get rid of Hayley but now he goes ahead and makes matters worse

I sat in the field crying and drowning in my tears, even Jaxon knows I was never in love with him I only respected him all because of Burke but for Burke to treat me this way, it saddens my heart, I mean, he is supposed to love and cherish me but now he has given that love to Hayley, I guess Hayley wins after all.

At this point all I want to do is go back to Chicago and leave my quiet life, continue my career as a doctor, get a divorce, and take the kids along with me, I should have done that when I caught Burke's lips locked in that if Hayley's but my love for him blinded me so much that I saw his flaws but couldn't even recognize it.

"Fuck you, Burke, fuck you", I said crying profusely, my eyes were very red, and at this point, my head was banging, the crying had given me a headache, and my nose was littered with it, it was droppings off the ground.

I felt a hand touch me from behind and it was Diago,

"Go away, just go away Diago, j am not in the mood for any conversation", I said to him

"I know, and I did not come here to have a conversation with you, just a word and I'll be gone", he begged

"Fine, say whatever is on your mind," I said.

" I am sorry for how rough things turned out between you and my Lord Burke, it is hard on him and I figured it would even be harder on you, " he said.

"Is that what you want to say, well I have heard your sermon now, you can go, do whatever you like", I cried.

*I know, and I just want to tell you that in all this chaos I just hope you'd see that he does love you, he may have acted wrongly but he does", he said with a smile on his face.

I choose to ignore him as having a conversation with him might eventually change my decision and I don't want to change my mind, what baffles me is why he is so bothered about us rather than being angry that I dragged him into our mess even when he had nothing to do with it, Diago has been such a good friend and confidant to Burke since Jack died I had grown to love him and respect him also but not this time, I have had enough of everybody's bullshit.

He walked away when he realized I wasn't going to talk to him I turned around to watch him walk away and then I saw the kids walk towards me, my eyes were still soaked with tears, I didn't want them to see me this way I quickly used my clothes to clean up my tears but they caught of with me while I was cleaning myself up.

They stood there in shock, it was written all over me that I had been crying for a while, I couldn't hide it.

"Mum, what's the problem, why are you crying bitterly", Dikky asked.

" Nothing my angels nothing and besides what are you all doing outside"? I asked.

" Well, we wanted to see you and we searched the entire house for you and we didn't so we figured that you'd be here", Rikky said.

" Ooooh okay, guys I want to tell you all something", I said softly.

" Okay, you can shoot?", Nikky said.

" About Chicago, I have finally made up my mind, we are leaving the crescent pack for good back to our old lives", I said.

" Well, that's new mum, why do you want us to go?", Dikky asked.

"You can see, mum and dad had issues again and he has hurt her, the question shouldn't be why she wants us to go, what did dad do", Nikky asked.

"Come on, I can't tell you what dad did, it's between the both of us and besides I do not want you all to hate your father", I replied.

"You have to, else I'm not going I'll stay back with Dad, maybe the others will go", Nikky threatened.

"You are going, home is where a mother says it is", I replied.

"So what happened?", they all asked.

"Fine, since you all want me to spill, your dad killed Jaxon, he killed the man you all have ever known as your father because of that with Hayley so we must leave, let him have his time with her", I said angrily.

"Oooh shit, this whole situation is messed up", Dikky laughed.

"It's not a funny matter, you should know that he hurt me, he hurt us all", I said.

"Well for starters I never liked Jaxon", Dikky replied.

" Me too", the other two chorused.

I don't know why everybody is making this matter about Jaxon when it's supposed to be about us, this child room some kind of dumb brain from their father

"That's no excuse we are leaving", I said angrily.

"Mum, are you sure about that, just a few days ago you were telling me how we are supposed to take care of our father and how we shouldn't leave him, and all this birthright stuff I mean you might be saying this out of anger, just think through it", Nikky said.

" I know I said all those things because I thought he was still in love with me but now I have seen the light, I'm done, we are all done so yes I am going to file for a divorce and we are leaving Crescent Pack for good this time", I replied
