All Too Late

“There’s nothing I’m keeping from you.” Finn Morris uttered coldly, “We broke up like any normal couple.”

“How would she become like that if it was as you said?” Charles roared, “ I shouldn’t have given up on her in the first place!”

Finn replied placidly, “If you still like her, it’s not too late for you to pursue her now.”

When Charles heard that, he snorted coldly.

In a deep voice, Finn continued, “Charles, I have no other choice. You are well aware that I am an illegitimate child. I had to do it this way in order to get my share of the family fortune. Otherwise, my mother would not be able to rest in peace.”

“Don’t you feel ashamed for using a deceased person as an excuse?” Charles snapped, “I don’t care about your identity or what you’re trying to achieve. It’s none of my business, but you can’t simply hurt Vivian’s feelings for the sake of your own selfish desire.”

“Charles, you don’t know anything,” Finn responded, as if he was in a quandary.

“Of course, I don’t know,” Charles grumbled. “I’ll never trust you again, Finn!”

After a brief pause, Finn stated, “Charles, I’ll be heading to Jadeborough in a few days, and I need your assistance.”

“In your dreams!” Charles responded sarcastically and hung up the phone.

Meanwhile, Finn put his phone down.

Behind the lenses of his glasses, a cold gleam flashed across his eyes.

Is she currently in Jadeborough? That’s great news. I’m finally able to see her again.

Kathleen was about to leave for the Yoeger residence when midnight rolled around.

Just as she was about to leave, she heard a noise behind the door.

She quickly hid herself once more beneath her cover.

Then, there was a knock on the door.

“Ms. Johnson, I’m Mr. Macari’s subordinate. He told me to bring you something,” the man outside explained.

Samuel?

“Come in,” Kathleen replied.

When the man walked in, he was holding a box.

He placed the box in front of her. “This is what Mr. Macari asked me to deliver to you, Ms. Johnson. Mr. Macari will call you later and give you further instructions on how to use it and what to use it for.”
