“Why?” Kathleen asked.
Samuel swallowed hard. “Because I don't see any hatred in your eyes.”
Previously, Kathleen loved and hated him, and her hatred suffocated him.
However, with how things were at the moment, distance had formed between them.
In fact, he did not like it, no matter what.
On the contrary, from Kathleen's point of view, it was probably better to forget about it so there would not be suffering anymore.
“Anything else?” Kathleen asked. “If there's nothing else, I'm going home.”
“I'll send you back,” he said in a hoarse voice.
Waving her hand, she rejected, “There's no need for that. I can go home by myself. I can move my arm now, so I can drive just fine.”
He looked at her without saying anything.
“See you at the College of Medicine tomorrow afternoon,” she added awkwardly before turning to leave.
Samuel massaged the space between his eyebrows.
She's obviously turning me down, and she doesn't like me getting close to her at all, and I can't do anything about it.
Bearing that thought in mind, he coughed twice.
Returning to stand by the window again, he looked out of it.
He watched her walk out of the gates alone toward a car parked not far away.
Getting into the car, she drove away.
Samuel continued to stare at her with his dark eyes until she disappeared from his sight.
At first, Kathleen wanted to drive back home, but she noticed that she was being followed, causing her to furrow her brows.
I'm sure I was alone when I got out of the house earlier, but as soon as I left Florinia Manor, someone started following me. It seems there are many eyes around Florinia Manor.
Narrowing her eyes, she stopped her car instantly.
The car that was following her stopped as well.
She then got out of her car.
However, there was no movement from the other car.
With a gun in her hand, she walked toward the other car and pointed it at the window. “Get out here!”
The car door swung open, revealing Emily.
“Kate, it's me.”
“Mrs. Morris? What are you doing here?” Kathleen was surprised as she lowered her gun.
Emily was embarrassed. “I'm here to see you. You checked on Christopher and had someone deliver some medicine, right? But Christopher still hasn’t woken up yet even after he finished the medicine. That's why I'm here.”
At that, Kathleen finally remembered. “I'm sorry, Mrs. Morris. Too many things have happened lately, so I totally forgot about it.”
Pursing her lips, Emily replied, “It's okay. I didn't expect you to be Gizem. Kathleen, can you come with me?”
Kathleen nodded deeply. “Okay. Lead the way, Mrs. Morris.”
Emily let out a relieved breath.
“Thank you. I'm sorry for troubling you.”
“No worries. I promised to help. Let's go,” Kathleen replied plainly.
After that, she walked back to her car, with Emily's gaze set on her back.
Kathleen seems different from before.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Morris residence.
After Kathleen got out of her car, she asked casually, “Mrs. Morris, are Finn and Tracy still staying with you?”
“Something happened with Finn a few days back. Someone from his biological mother's extended family from her second marriage took him away. Tracy left with him too,” Emily replied.
Hearing that, Kathleen frowned. “I heard that his mother had passed away?”
Emily nodded. “Yeah. She passed away not long ago. She got married to a royal family, but you know how the power struggle is with wealthy families. It's even worse with royal families. No one knows how she died.’
Knowingly, Kathleen asked with a calm expression, “What happened to Finn?”
“I heard it was an overdose, and he was almost out of breath when they noticed it. Someone said even if he could come back, he would be crippled,” Emily explained.
Upon learning that, Kathleen was yelling in her heart.
Serves him right! How dare Finn and Theodore set me up!
As they talked, they entered the
mansion.
