All Too Late

Kylie had never seen someone like Kathleen before.

It was accurate to say that Kathleen was meek and was sometimes a pushover, but what was strange was that it was also correct to describe her as someone with a temper.

Kathleen definitely wasn’t kind to Kylie, but no one would blame her for that.

After all, what Kylie did earlier had crossed the line, and she didn’t deserve any forgiveness.

Kylie sounded pitiful when she said, “Kathleen, the old wives’ saying claims that we should always show mercy. Is it really okay for you to be that cruel?”

“Cruel? It’s not like I’ve never given you a chance.” Kathleen kept her face impassive. “You’re the one who wasted the second chance I gave you, and I’m not giving you a third one.”

With that, Kathleen walked up the stairs.

Kylie broke down right away, bawling loudly. “She’s bullying me by taking advantage of the fact that she is Samuel Macari’s ex-wife.”

Everyone was speechless when they heard those words.

Samuel had already put the pressure on them, so there was no way they could keep Kylie anymore.

It was also why she had to be replaced, and that was what everyone else wanted as well.

Kathleen returned to her room and took off her shoes before she climbed onto her bed to rest.

She had a splitting headache, so she took some sleeping pills to sleep.

The next morning, Kathleen woke up refreshed.

She freshened up before strolling down the stairs.

Everyone, including the director, was there.

“We’ve discussed the matter, and Kylie has been completely cut off from the show. We’re still looking for a guest to replace her, but we should have someone in three days,” announced Cain while shooting everyone a meaningful look.

“So you want the four of us to film first for the next three days?” asked Nancy.

Cain hesitated for a moment. “Yes, that is exactly it. That is why I’m making this announcement. Is everyone okay with the new arrangement?”

“Can’t we get a temporary guest?” asked Nancy in a troubled tone. “There’s no way the four of us can work that much.”

“Well…” replied Cain hesitantly. “The thing is, Kylie has ruined our reputation, so no one is willing to come.”

No one knew what to say to that.

Cain forced a smile onto his face as he added, “Haha, I have no idea how things become like this. This is the first time I direct a show like this.”
