Fell in Love With You in the Wrong Time novel Chapter 223

“Don't worry about the medication,” Kathleen said.

“Do you think I'm worried about that?” countered Samuel coolly.

Kathleen looked as if she didn’t quite understand what he was talking about.

“I just don’t want you to sacrifice anything for the sake of obtaining the medication.” Samuel's lips were set in a hard line.

Surprised, she replied, “Didn't you understand what I said earlier? I already stated that I don't intend to sacrifice myself for the medication.”

Does he think I'm stupid?

“Kate, I know you don't love me anymore, but you did say that you understand me. Likewise, do you think I don't understand you as well?” said Samuel coldly as he looked at her.

Kathleen pursed her lips as she took in his words.

He continued in his low rasp, “You're simply too kind. You may not do it for me, but I'm sure the depths of your kindness wouldn't allow you to leave things as they are. That's especially because you've already started handling the matter. I know that once you've started something, you'll see it through to the end. That's just how much of a sense of responsibility you have.”

Kathleen didn't reply. Instead, she was overwhelmed with surprise at how well Samuel understood her. She now realized that although he might not understand some of her day-to-day habits, he had fully grasped her character and personality.

On the flip side, she wasn't too familiar with Samuel.

At that, she stated flatly, “Trust me,

Samuel. I won't be that stupid.”

His dark eyes stared intently into hers, but he didn't move a single muscle, not even to reply.

Finally, Kathleen broke the silence and said, “It's almost time. Both of us have been in the bathroom for some time now. It's easy for others to misunderstand us.”

“I’m not afraid,” remarked Samuel nonchalantly.

“Well, I am!” exclaimed Kathleen with derision. “I'm a full-fledged divorcee now. I don't want to be associated with and be tangled up in my ex-husband's affairs any longer.”

Samuel was utterly speechless. He silently followed behind her as she exited the bathroom.

Kathleen checked in with Maria and learned that Diana had already gone to sleep.

Maria said, “Old Mrs. Macari has been going to bed earlier these days.”

Kathleen understood instantly and said, “I just checked on Old Mrs. Macari's condition. She doesn't have any issues, but you do have to make sure to pay special attention to her.” Maria understood and replied, “Yes, Ms. Johnson. Don't worry.”

“Since she's gone to bed, I won't bother her any further. I'll be leaving now, Maria,” announced Kathleen.

A faint smile emerged on Maria's face as she replied, “All right. Old Mrs. Macari seemed quite happy tonight. It could be because you're here, Ms. Johnson. With you around, things here have gotten much warmer and more comfortable. It's no longer as cold and dreary as it used to be.”

Kathleen was stunned for a moment, but she finally promised, “I'll come over again in a few days.”

“That would be great! I'm sure Old Mrs. Macari would love that,” exclaimed Maria with a smile.

As he took in their exchange, Samuel flashed a look of satisfaction at Maria.

“I'll be heading off first, then, Maria,” Kathleen said as she put on her outerwear and left.

“Be careful on your way out,” Maria reminded worriedly.

“I'll be leaving too, Maria,” said Samuel as he donned his down jacket and chased after Kathleen.

Maria gazed at the pair as they departed. She couldn’t help but let out a long sigh.

If Kathleen decides to give birth to the child, this household is bound to become even more lively. Now that she isn't coming over as frequently as she used to, it's almost back to its former dreary state.

Kathleen and Samuel headed back to the Johnson residence.

The second they entered, Charles stuffed two bags of items into Samuel's arms and exclaimed, “These are your belongings. Take them and get lost!”

Samuel didn't know how to respond.

He merely received the items silently.

“You're not allowed to come over again,” declared Charles with contempt in his voice.

“I only listen to what Kate says,” stated Samuel with a faint smile.

Charles was speechless.
