All Too Late

Seeing Christopher, Kathleen could not help but say, “Chris, don’t fool around with Charles next time.”

Knowing what she was referring to, Christopher gave her a faint smile. “It’s okay.”

“I told Charles to make it look like we spend a lot of time apart, and we’ll announce our breakup a month later so that there’ll be a lesser impact on you,” Kathleen said with a serious expression.

Christopher felt dejected. Does she still not want to get too involved with me?

“Okay.” Christopher’s voice was hoarse. “Anything you say.”

He only wanted to dote on her and do as she wished.

Only then did Kathleen smile at ease and followed him to the banquet.

This time, Charles did not follow them to the banquet.

As Kathleen had just returned to Jadeborough, Charles needed to make a lot of arrangements for her.

Therefore, only Valerie went with her.

Valerie received training before, so she knew what she needed to do while at the banquet with Kathleen.

The banquet was hosted by Christopher’s business partner.

Coincidentally, the host was the sponsor of the variety show that Kathleen was about to join.

Christopher’s appearance with Kathleen immediately caused a sensation.

To the people in Jadeborough, Kathleen was not only the winner of the Academy Award for Best Actress but also Samuel’s ex-wife.

Everyone knew about her wedding with Samuel, for it was the talk of the town when it happened.

Hence, when they saw her with Christopher, they could not help feeling weird about it.

After all, Christopher was Samuel’s cousin.

This relation of theirs made things all the more interesting.

Fortunately, Kathleen had thought of it before coming back, so she did not care about it at all.
