All Too Late

When the doctor came out, he noticed the grim look on Samuel’s face and was about to leave quickly, not wishing to land himself in trouble.

“Stop right there,” Samuel said in an icy voice.

The doctor halted and asked nervously, “Mr. Macari, what can I help you with?”

“Have you watched the recording of the surveillance cameras?” Samuel asked coldly.

The doctor nodded. “Yes, of course. This is a serious matter.”

“What did Kathleen use to put that man under control?” Samuel frowned.

The doctor answered, “It’s a silver needle used in acupuncture. Last night, Benjamin’s situation was crucial, and she used a silver needle to save him.”

A silver needle?

Samuel never knew that Kathleen possessed such a skill.

“Her granddad was a traditional medicine doctor. He even held the position as an advisor in the National Traditional Medicine Hospital headquarters,” the doctor explained.

Samuel fell silent as he was unaware of that.

He never took the initiative to know more about Kathleen, despite the fact that she had been right in front of him.

Yet, not once did he at least try to understand her wholeheartedly.

“I see.” Samuel nodded.

Then, he turned to Tyson and ordered, “Go and find that man.”

“Yes, roger that,” Tyson replied in a serious tone.

After that, Samuel went to look for Nicolette.

Nicolette was just done combing her hair.

She felt anxious when she saw that a bunch of her hair had fallen again.

If this continues, I might actually die…

At that moment, she heard footsteps coming from outside and immediately put on her hat.

Samuel walked into the room, his eyes dark and cold.

Nicolette was about to hide her fallen hair, but Samuel walked toward her and seized the strands of hair in her palm.

She was so afraid that her eyes turned red. “Samuel, if I one day lose all of my hair, would you come to resent me?”

Samuel shook his head.
