Chapter 149

　　Catherine's POV

　　I went downstairs with Hedwig, and I saw Howard's car parked outside the parlor. He pushed the door open and got out of the car hastily.

　　Then he hurriedly opened the rear seat door and came in holding a baby who was crying her eyes out.

　　"Ash, don't be afraid. Daddy's here. It's my fault. You must be terrified!" Howard blamed himself while holding Ash in his arms.

　　I hurried over and asked with concern, "Mr. Twitty, did you take Ash out?"

　　"Yes. She has been staying at home for two days, so I wanted to take her out to see the outside. But on our way back, she kept crying so hard. It breaks my heart!" His face was full of sorrow.

　　I quickly held Ash in my arms and said, "Ash, come here and play with Hedwig. Let Hedwig sing for you, OK?"

　　As soon as Hedwig heard that there was a chance to show off, she immediately began to sing a few songs that she had learned in kindergarten.
