An old friend?
Samuel knitted his brows lightly and asked, “You already know who she is?”
Kathleen nodded slowly. “You know her very well.”
A glint fleeted through his dark eyes. “It's her?”
Once again, Kathleen nodded. She knew Samuel had figured out who the woman was.
Although he had lost his memories, Tyson had informed him about those things. Thus, it didn't take him long to guess who Ashley was.
“After I'm done with Old Mrs. Lester's surgery, we'll return and deal with them,” declared Kathleen icily.
Of course, she was also referring to Lauren and Luna.
In response, Samuel nodded.
Another day passed by quickly.
The next morning, Kathleen was about to head to the Lester residence when Yvonne showed up.
“Aunt Yvonne,” greeted Kathleen as she led Yvonne into the room.
Upon seeing Samuel, Yvonne nodded at him. “You're also here, Mr. Macari.”
“I'll leave so you may talk in private,” Samuel offered calmly before turning to leave.
“Please stay, Mr. Macari,” Yvonne interrupted with a half-smile. “The thing is, Kate is a special guest of our family. It would be embarrassing if people find out that she's staying in a hotel.”
There were no changes in Samuel's expression. “And so?”
“So, we want to invite you and Kate to stay at the Lester residence. What do you think?” Yvonne asked smilingly.
They could also use the opportunity to observe what kind of person Samuel was.
After all, it would be better to see it for themselves rather than listen to other people.
Wordlessly, Samuel looked at Kathleen for her decision.
He was determined to go wherever she went.
Kathleen, on the other hand, was abashed. “Won't it be rude for us to stay there? We might disturb you.”
“No, it's fine. We're welcoming you with open arms,” Yvonne reassured. “My mom was worried the whole night because you didn't return last night.”
Hearing that, Kathleen bit her lip. “With Samuel by my side, nothing will happen to me.”
“That can't stop her from worrying,” replied Yvonne meaningfully. “My mom adores you a lot.”
Her words took Kathleen aback. “I like Old Mrs. Lester, too. She treats me very well,” she said after a while.
“Really?” Yvonne beamed. “All right, let's go. If you keep her worrying, it won't be good for her health, right?”
Kathleen nodded and looked at
Samuel. “Come stay with me there for some time. It won't be too long.”
“Okay. I'll listen to you.”
Kathleen gave him a smile in return.
They soon arrived at the Lester residence.
Kathleen immediately brought Samuel to meet Betty, who couldn't stop smiling after hearing that she was back.
No matter what, it was best for Kathleen to stay by her side.
“Old Mrs. Lester,” called out Kathleen with a gentle smile. “Samuel and I will be disturbing you for a few days.”
“What do you mean you'll be disturbing me? As long as you're happy here, you can stay as long as you please,” Betty said as she looked at Kathleen with doting eyes.
On the contrary, there was a hint of aloofness in her eyes when she turned to Samuel.
Since she thought he didn't deserve Kathleen, naturally, she didn't like him.
Samuel knew that Betty didn't favor him.
However, he was neither worried nor bothered.
As long as Kathleen liked him, it was enough.
After checking on Betty and making sure that she was fine, Kathleen left the room.
“I'll take you to the room so you can rest,” she said while she supported
Samuel, who nodded quietly.
As a matter of fact, it was recommended that he stayed in bed to recover, but she had no choice because he didn't want to.
Right when they were about to go upstairs, they ran into Yusef.
“Mr. Lester,” Kathleen greeted.
With a faint smile, Yusef told her, “Just call me Uncle Yusef. There are too many Lesters in this house, and it might get confusing.”
“Uncle Yusef.”
Yusef was delighted. He looked at Samuel and asked, “You're Samuel?”
