“Alright, I want to know more about the process. What’s the best way to keep her comfortable during pregnancy?” Shaun enquired.

For the next ten minutes, the vet explained the process in detail and gave him a cat pregnancy guide in the end. “A pregnant cat must watch its nutrition intake. Your cat is quite weak to begin with, thus miscarriage might happen easily. It’s best if you hire someone to look after it.”

Shaun was at a loss for words.

Was it still a pet that they were talking about here?

For some reason, he was suddenly reminded of Catherine’s exceptional cooking skills. It occurred to him that he might have been too rude to her just now.

Right, he should probably stop bringing up the topic of her leaving the house when he returned later.

Back at Jadeite Bay, he opened the door and turned the lights on.

The door of the guest room was open and there was no one in sight. He could not find a single garment of women’s clothing in there.

Catherine had left.

His eyebrows twitched into a frown.

Fudge meowed lazily in his arms. She glanced around the room before lowering her head in disappointment.

The man was frustrated but thought that her departure might be for the best.

They should not get too involved in each other’s life anyway.

He could make it up to her with a larger compensation on the day of their divorce.

As for Fudge, well, he could always hire a sitter.
