All Too Late

Chapter 280 Old Man

Cough! Cough!

Samuel began coughing terribly all of a sudden.

Even his hand that was holding the cup was trembling.

Kathleen immediately received the blanket, set it aside, and gently patted his back.

“I’m fine…” His coughing appeared to be severe.

She placed a hand on his forehead.

“You’re having a fever. Where do you keep your antipyretic medication?” Kathleen furrowed her brows.

“I don’t know. It’s fine. I’ll be okay after I take a nap.” Samuel’s voice sounded hoarse.

“Shouldn’t you know your body’s condition better? An ordinary person may feel better after a nap, but do you think that will apply to you?” She stood up.

Samuel took in her anxious demeanor and said with a husky voice, “Sometimes, when I look at your facial expressions, it gives me the false impression that you’re still in love with me.”

Kathleen pursed her lips. “Lie down and rest for now. I’ll go search for the medication.”

“Okay.” He nodded and lay down on the bed while she looked for the medication.

In the end, Kathleen found a first-aid kit under the television cabinet in the living room. There were all kinds of medications inside.

Creak! Creak!

She heard the sound of the door swinging coming from the basement.

Did Samuel not lock the door properly?

She hurried toward the basement.

The scene that entered her vision shocked her because Nicolette was missing.

Did someone sneak into the castle? Sh*t! Samuel!

Kathleen dashed upstairs at once.

She saw a woman forcing Samuel’s mouth open and stuffing a pill inside.

Samuel had lost consciousness because of the fever.

Otherwise, he would not have allowed the woman to do as she pleased.

“Who are you?” Kathleen stepped forward to stop her, but she was too late.

The masked woman let out a derisive chuckle before striding hastily toward the window and jumping out.

Thump!
