Chapter 290: Mother and Daughter

Looking at the woman standing in front of her, Catherine only felt a trance in her heart. Her life may be more wonderful than most people in this world, but this excitement is more about the tribulations and twists and turns that have nothing to do with peace and happiness and success.

She has a much more privileged family than some, and has a father and mother who love her. According to most people's growth trajectory, when she grows up, she will meet an excellent young man, and then get married, give birth to one child after another for that man, and work together without worry until the end of her life.

This is the most ordinary and happy ending in ordinary people's minds.

But as a substitute for the Petrova family and the doppelganger of her ancestors, Catherine's life is more like a cursed life under the intervention and influence of natural will. In other words, since the birth of the Ancestor Family, any doppelganger is a cursed tragic existence.

One by one, their loved ones left them, and most of them died under some supernatural force.

Since Catherine was pregnant out of wedlock, her life has deviated from the beauty and fantasy she once longed for.

First, the daughter she gave birth to was forcibly taken away by her father and given away. And then she was consciously disgraced and disgraced, and her stereotypical father, who felt that she had disgraced the family, was expelled from the family and moved from Bulgaria to England. It was there that Catherine met the man who still influences her life to this day, Nicklaus Michaelson, one of the progenitors of vampires.

This man changed almost everything about Catherine.

When Catherine learns that Klaus is going to sacrifice her to break the werewolf seal that his mother Esther, the powerful witch had placed on him. When he gains greater power and desires to create a half-race that is his own and only at his command. The concept she had always insisted on in her heart had completely begun to collapse and collapse.

She began to become suspicious and no longer gave her trust to anyone; She is stingy with her feelings, and gradually becomes cold, and has learned to play with means and hearts like Klaus. For the sake of her own survival, Catherine can become more ruthless than anyone else, because there is nothing but herself in this world. There was no one else who deserved to be close and valued to her.

From the moment Catherine was determined to turn herself into a vampire and saw her family die, she was no longer the one who believed in love before Elijah. And still have an innocent and good woman.

Catherine believes in family affection, but her father abandons her because she has brought shame on the family. She believes in love, but in exchange for cold and outright betrayal. A person who can't even trust his relatives and lovers can finally be trusted. It's just herself.

It has not stopped for 400 years. Catherine also thought back to her days of hiding like a rat, if she hadn't been driven out of the family by her father, had she not gone to England alone, and had not met Trevor, Elijah, and Klaus there, would her life have been more peaceful and peaceful?

Regret and the like Catherine did have them, but they made her care more. It's his own daughter who left her as soon as she was born. The reason why she wants to return to Bulgaria after becoming a vampire. In addition to being for his family, his daughter is also one of the important factors.

"You can talk as much as you want, and you have plenty of time." Tang Bai looked at Catherine and Nadia, who were just looking at each other face to face and were silent, and after saying a word, he took Pearl and they left the living room specially used for reception, making room for the two who met for the first time to get along and communicate in private.

Nadia Petrova's real face is still a little different from the actor in her memory, but her demeanor and temperament are very similar, and she easily makes up for the difference in appearance.

Tang Bai swore to her in front of Catherine that he would find her missing daughter as soon as possible. He dared to play this kind of package ticket in person, naturally he was not presumptuous. Tang Bai knew very well that in the past four hundred years, the person who has persistently tracked Catherine's whereabouts is not only the vampire ancestor Klaus. As Catherine's only daughter, Nadia Petrova is also a member of this wave of spouts.

Tang Bai knew very well that as long as the conclusive news of Catherine's whereabouts was released, Nadia, who had been searching for Catherine to no avail, would definitely come to confirm and investigate like a fish lured by bait. Deliberately exposing and spreading Catherine's message was just a means for Tang Bai to fulfill his promise.

The plan and means to fulfill the promise are simple, and there is nothing to be amazed and admired. But this simple method and plan is not safe for everyone to use. Many plans are naturally perfect based on imagination, but in fact, due to various factors, these plans will be greatly discounted in terms of practicality.

It's like Tang Bai exposing Catherine's traces and information in order to lure Nadia Petrova's attention and inquiry. Tang Bai did this because he had the strength to not be afraid of the vampire ancestor, especially the ancestor Klaus. For others, let's not talk about whether Catherine agrees or not, even if Catherine acquiesces, I'm afraid that she didn't wait for Nadia, but would attract Klaus's attention and intervention first.

Of course, with Catherine's cautious and suspicious character, although she is extremely eager for a stable and free life in her heart, and the authenticity of the news that her daughter is still alive, it will definitely not be Tang Bai who says anything, she is stupid to believe anything.

Especially Tang Bai only found her a few months ago and told her the news that her daughter was still alive. A few months later, the daughter came to the door and stood in front of her alive. Catherine would certainly have been suspicious of this situation.

But this is no longer something that Tang Bai has to worry about. He had fulfilled his promise to Catherine. With Catherine's skill and scheming, she will definitely find out something in contact with Nadia and getting along.

It is not easy to deceive Catherine, who has become more and more cautious and suspicious, and has a strong source of intelligence.

Tang Bai didn't know much about Nadia, except that she had been looking for traces of her mother Catherine, and he didn't know anything about all her previous information. But this did not prevent Tang Bai from seeing what kind of person Nadia was.

Nadia may not have the decisiveness and ruthlessness that her mother Catherine cultivated by escaping death again and again, but she is also a smart person with a lot of scheming and skill. In this kind of matter, she knows how to win Catherine's trust better than Tang Bai.

Tang Bai was not worried about this. (To be continued......)
