All Too Late

Kathleen pushed Samuel away and sat aside with confusion written all over her pale face. “Why did you do that?”

“Because I missed you.” He slowly buttoned his shirt back up and sorted out his attire.

As she watched how the man returned to being the elegant, noble elite he was, she could not associate him with the possibility of self-harm.

Samuel did not look like he would do such a thing.

He is a self-centered man. Why would he harm himself because of sentiments? Furthermore, it’s such a severe case of self-harm.

Kathleen’s mind was in a mess.

Samuel looked at her with his dark, unfathomable eyes. “Kate, I’m the same as you. I miss the children too.”

She froze.

“Because of my mistakes, I’ve caused harm to my own child, and my beloved wife left me.” A bitter smile appeared on his refined face as he continued, “I can’t forgive myself for ruining what could’ve been a loving family with my own hands.”

Kathleen’s heart ached when she heard that.

“Don’t I deserve to die?” Samuel said in a husky voice, his dark eyes gazing deeply at her.

She did not know how to respond to that.

As he looked at the woman’s lost and uneasy expression, he was certain about her answer.

She had thought of wanting me to die.

Meanwhile, Kathleen could not explain her feelings either.

When she lost her child, she had indeed thought of wanting Samuel to die.

If not because of him, her child would’ve been safe and sound.

However, right then, when she saw the state Samuel was in, she did not want him to lose his life.

The internal wounds within her were not healed.

Instead, they were buried deep within her heart.

Despite that, she knew very well that she could no longer accept Samuel anymore.

Even when he was in his current state, she felt it was unacceptable.

The woman started sobbing.

It was too much for her to bear.
