Chapter 905
The moment Bernard answered the call, Caleb didn’t give him a chance to utter a word. He shouted,
“Hey, Dad, it’s Caleb How’s that memory of yours?”
Bernard….
He began to suspect that Caleb’s association with the Spencer family was diminishing his intellect His
ruse was pitiful, on par with Robin’s pathetic attempts. Suspecting someone else was in Caleb’s
company, Bernard decided to play along feigning an aged tone, “A slight improvement, but it still need
a doctor’s consultation.
Kathanne, hearing the deep masculine voice on the line, relaxed her grip on the gun slightly and
gestured to Caleb to maintain the conversation.
Catching Katharine’s unsuspecting gaze, Caleb nonchalantly proceeded, “So, when are you planning
to see the doctor? Have you made an appointment?”
Bernard, his fingers drumming on the glass table, replied icily, “Your mother will accompany me to the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdoctor in G country tomorrow. If you have time, bring your fiancée along
When Caleb heard Bernard’s words, accompanied by the tapping on the table, he knew it was Morse
code.
He quickly understood Bernard’s meaning. He wanted Caleb to bring Katharine to the destination. Even
though he didn’t know Bernard’s real purpose, he would still do as told “Alright, when do we meet?”
Bernard said expressionlessly, “Eight o’clock tomorrow night”
Caleb nodded obediently. “No problem, 111 bring her to meet you guys tomorrow”
After Bernard hung up the phone, Caleb put away his phone and looked at Katharine, “Did you hear
that? My dad’s coming to G country. He wants me to bring you to see them. See, I wasn’t lying to you,
was 17”
Katharine heard all the conversation, she put down her gun and said, “The fiancee you mentioned.. is it
me?”
Katharine looked somewhat taken aback. In her view, she and Caleb were merely fooling around. Had
Caleb seriously considered marrying her?
Observing Kathanne’s beautiful face, Caleb felt a pang of guilt
However, Bernard remained his priority, an unwavering position in his heart. Thus, he hardened his
resolve and continued to mislead Katharine.
“Yes, I’ve spoken about you to my parents. They’re quite intrigued and have been longing to meet
you…
While uttering these words, his thoughts were preoccupied with acquiring a sedative for Katharine the
following day, without which he wouldn’t be able to take her away
Unaware of Caleb’s internal machinations, Katharine found herself emotionally stirred by his
declarations
She’d had previous boyfriends, but they all found her too intimidating. None wanted to marry her; they
merely viewed her as an amusement. Caleb was the first….
Katharine approached Caleb, slung her arms around his neck, pressed her lips against his, and
whispered, “Caleb, I thought you were merely playing games. I hadn’t anticipated your sincerity…”
Caleb stiffened, a sense of guilt rising in his heart

He really wanted to tell Katharine that his real name wasn’t Caleb. It was just a pseudonym he used for
the mission.
He didn’t have a real name. The name “Caleb” was a code given to him by Mr. Penrod when he joined
the Siren Organization, cede name $0883Caleb.
But Caleb knew well that this secret should never be known to anyone, especially Katharine, who had
feelings for him….
Because from eight o’clock tomorrow, he and Katharine would go down completely different paths.
Their closeness was just a temporary relationship.
Katharine’s body pressed against Caleb’s firm chest, shy yet bold, she whispered in his ear.
“I need you.”
Caleb fell into deep thought
If their meeting hadn’t been because of the mission, but in some other way, perhaps there could have
been a different ending between them.
But life has no ifs….
