All Too Late

Chapter 222

Diana went to rest after having her meal.

Kathleen stayed inside the pet house, hugging Snowy in silence.

Samuel entered and stood by the door. “How about you take care of it for a few days since you like the dog so much?”

Kathleen shook her head and pressed her face against Snowy’s furry body.

“I don’t have the time. A dog requires companionship. My brother and I are both busy.”

Samuel walked forward and crouched down beside her.

He reached out to pat Snowy’s head. “You saved this dog in the past.”

Kathleen turned around. “Samuel.”

“Hmm?” Samuel gazed at her solemnly.

“You weren’t just joking earlier at the dining table, right? You weren’t just making baseless analysis, am I right?” she asked softly.

Samuel wore an impassive expression. “I do have some evidence.”

“Would you have done it if it was you?” Kathleen asked with all seriousness.

“That depends on how intense the love is.” Samuel regarded her with a pensive gaze. “One can accept everything as long as they love deeply. If they are merely controlled by their superficial possessiveness, naturally, they will not allow anything to happen.”

Kathleen pursed her lips. “But what does it mean to love deeply?”

A troubled expression spread across her face.

Snowy suddenly lay on the floor and showed its stomach.

Kathleen proceeded to caress the dog’s stomach.

Samuel said, “Perhaps it was the way you thought of me.”

Kathleen momentarily froze and looked at him in surprise.

“What else could have motivated you to treat me in that manner in the past if it wasn’t because you loved me deeply?” His eyes bore into her.

Kathleen pursed her lips. “But you did not seem to like it.”

Then, she continued stroking Snowy’s belly.

“I do like it.” Samuel’s voice sounded hoarse. “It was my fault for not realizing that earlier.”
