Since the day she lost her parents, she was like a weed without roots.
Drifting around aimlessly was her fate.
A relationship with Samuel was impossible. It was all her wishful thinking.
“I had another checkup yesterday and showed the report to Samuel.” Kathleen avoided the dish that made her nauseous and ate something else.
Mila frowned.
Samuel wouldn't be so calm if he knew that Kathleen was pregnant. Maybe we really misunderstood.
“In any case, don't worry, Katie. We are on your side.” Wynnie patted Kathleen's head. “It's getting late. Mila and I will leave now. I'll come and pick you up when you get discharged tomorrow.”
“You don't have to, Wynnie. I can get discharged by myself tomorrow.” Kathleen did not want to trouble Wynnie.
“Don't worry about it. I'll bring you back to the Macari residence for a few days to help you recuperate your stomach,” Wynnie answered. “I'll call Maria and tell her to pack some things for you and send them over.
Kathleen pursed her lips with a helpless expression.
Samuel will be even more angry with me now.
Not long after Wynnie and Mila left, Samuel arrived with supper.
He frowned when he saw the dishes on Kathleen's table. “Did Mdm. Hunt make these?”
Kathleen nodded.
“How did she know that you were hospitalized?” Samuel was unhappy.
“Not just Mrs. Hunt, but even Mom knows too,” Kathleen said calmly. “Mom also said she will bring me to stay at the Macari residence for a while.”
She thought Samuel would be furious, but
unexpectedly, he was calm. “Okay.”
Kathleen pursed her lips. “Will you be coming?”
“The Macari residence is a little far from the company. I may not stay there,” Samuel replied indifferently.
Kathleen smiled bitterly. “You can say that staying at the Macari residence will prevent you from taking care of Nicolette. No need for such excuses. Before we were married, you traveled to the company from the Macari residence, right?”
Samuel knew that she was being sarcastic. “I'm glad you know that.”
Kathleen's heart ached.
“I've investigated the incident. Nicolette did not send that person to attack you,” Samuel explained. “Benjamin provoked someone, and the other party thought you were his girlfriend. That's why they attacked you.”
Kathleen did not believe what he said.
It was not even twenty-four hours since she and Benjamin reunited.
There was no romance or intimacy between them.
The other party couldn't have believed that she was his girlfriend.
They were just excuses and reasons Samuel came up with to defend Nicolette.
“Have you contacted your uncle?” Samuel asked coldly.
“Samuel, I've said it's useless for you to threaten me with my uncle.” Kathleen's soft voice was cold. “I almost got killed. Who else can I save? If Benjamin died, it would be all my fault. I'm just a human. I cannot decide who lives or dies. Do whatever you want. You can kill my uncle to threaten me or force me to my death. It's your choice.”
Samuel's face darkened. “You think that I'm threatening you?”
“What else could it be? Are you showing me concern?” Kathleen asked sarcastically. “I didn't expect Mr. Macari's way of showing concern to be so special. I understand now.”
“Kathleen, stop being sarcastic.” Samuel was displeased.
“Was I doing that?” Kathleen looked at him coldly.
In the past, her eyes were always sparkling like a clear spring.
Now, the light in her eyes had vanished without a trace.
Samuel was infuriated.
“Don't force me, Samuel.” Kathleen's thick and long eyelashes covered the light in her eyes. “I'm ready to go all out, so let's get divorced as soon as possible.”
Samuel retorted coldly, “And if I disagree?”
“Did you fall in love with me?” Kathleen looked at him indifferently. “If you admit it, I'll reconsider getting a divorce.”
Samuel's voice was ice cold when he replied, “I don't like you. I never have, and never will.”
Kathleen's face paled.
Samuel turned around and left.
Drip.
