All Too Late

“Samuel, you—” Nicolette opened her eyes.

However, to her surprise, the one standing before her was Kathleen.

The latter was wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown. Although her delicate and beautiful face looked pale, she was still exuding an imposing air.

The one that hit her was Kathleen.

“It was my first time hearing someone make such a request, so I naturally had to comply,” Kathleen answered maliciously as she looked down at Nicolette from above.

This was the first meeting they had after a year.

Nicolette gritted her teeth in anger. “Kathleen!”

“I merely fulfilled your request,” Kathleen said coldly and raised her eyebrow. “If you ask me to hit you like an idiot, then you can’t blame me when it hurts. You deserved it, though.”

Nicolette’s face and ears reddened with fury.

“Hmm? Is your mask stuck on your face?” Kathleen sneered. “Why aren’t you taking it off?”

When Nicolette recalled how her face looked now, her eyes blazed like two torches. “It’s all because of you!”

“Me?” Kathleen faked ignorance. “What does this have to do with me?”

“Did you forget?” Nicolette ground her teeth in resentment. “You’re the one who did this to my face! Don’t you think you can worm out of this if you pretend you forgot!”

“Oh. In that case, you deserved it. Can’t blame me.” Kathleen shrugged.

“Kathleen, if Samuel hadn’t illegally imprisoned me, I would have sued you! I’ll make sure you get thrown in jail!” Nicolette roared.

“You’re going to sue me?” Kathleen stared at her expressionlessly. “Who gave you the gall to do that?”

“I have evidence!” Nicolette gnashed her teeth before yelling furiously, “And witnesses too! Those who attended the wedding are my witnesses! They saw it all!”

“Try me then,” warned Samuel, his low voice tinged with frost. “Let’s see who will dare to bring out the evidence and who will testify for you.”

“Nicolette, don’t think you didn’t leave any evidence of what you have done all these years!” Kathleen said mockingly while looking coldly at her.

Nicolette smirked. “Back then, Samuel got rid of all those people in a fit of anger.”
