All Too Late

Chapter 16 Not A Tool

Just as Wynnie was about to push the door open to enter the place, Kathleen held her hand.

She had also heard what Samuel had said.

He claimed to be able to have her donate her bone marrow in three days.

What does he plan on doing? Will he tie her on a sickbed and force her to donate her bone marrow?

Wynnie gave Kathleen a side glance, noting that the latter already had tears rolling in her eyes but had willed herself not to cry even though she was feeling aggrieved as it was.

Wynnie heaved a sigh before leading Kathleen away.

Sensing that someone was outside the room, Samuel came out to check, only to find no one behind the door.

Was it an illusion?

Meanwhile, Wynnie led Kathleen back into the ward.

After closing the door, she said coldly, “Don’t you worry. Samuel would never be able to force you as long as you do not agree to this. How dare he act like a dictator!”

“Thank you, Wynnie.” Kathleen pulled her lips into a thin line.

Although Wynnie was Samuel’s biological mother, she had always been protective over Kathleen.

Wynnie lamented, “Kathleen, you have an overly tolerant personality. Don’t you know only by playing weak that you will be tended to? Samuel won’t care for you if you keep on being such a doormat.”

“But I won’t be able to stay at his side if I don’t tolerate him.” Kathleen bit her lip with her teeth.

“Why did you go to City Hall today?” Wynnie studied Kathleen.

Kathleen was a bad liar, so Wynnie knew what was going on upon laying eyes on her.

“I…” Kathleen was hesitant to speak.

If she told Wynnie the truth, the entire Macari family would know about it.

“Were you planning to file for divorce?” Wynnie gave her a side glance. “Are you and Samuel planning to go through with the divorce before informing anybody else?”
