All Too Late

Chapter 315 Time To Grow Up 

Gizem furrowed her brows. “Can you let go of me first? Desi might see us.” Samuel did her bidding, flashing her a stern look. Gizem leaped up and kept a distance from him. 

“It’s the smell of my very own perfume,” was her explanation. Her words only made Samuel shoot her a dubious leer. Gizem went on and elucidated her claim, “You can also find this scent on ancient books, Mr. Macari. It originated from a female physician and has a sedative effect.I heard that your ex-wife was also a traditional medicine practitioner. I guess she must’ve followed the same ancient prescription.” 

A coincidence? Suspicion rose within Samuel as he fixed his ice-cold gaze on Gizem. Could it be that she’s trying to bluff it out because of some ulterior motives? Never in a million years did Gizem expect Samuel to be so vigilant over a measly fragrance. 

“You’re a traditional medicine practitioner, too, you say?” His tone was as cold as the winter. 

“Yes.” Gizem nodded. 

“I learned traditional medicine before diving into modern medicine.” 

“All right. You may leave,” ordered Samuel with an impassive countenance. 

“Okay.” With that, Gizem wheeled around and stepped out. Samuel heaved a sigh at that. My mind must’ve gone haywire. Why did I mistake her for Kathleen? Gizem got back to the office, only to hear her phone ringing non-stop. She finally picked up the call. Immediately, Levi’s yawn was heard coming from the other end of the line. 

“Why aren’t you back yet, Babe? I almost wanted to crash out, you know.”

 “Sorry, I’m not going back tonight. I’m going to stay overnight at the hospital,” stated Gizem.

 “Oh… I’ll help you tidy up the house, then,” Levi stated helplessly. With an indifferent tone, Gizem declined his offer.

“There’s no need for that. I’ve given Samuel my word to move into the Macari residence just so it’ll be easier for me to look after Desi.” Levi blinked his eyes in disbelief. 

“What? But why? You were so unbending when I invited you to stay at my house back then!” 

“Levi, I rejected you because I didn’t want you to misunderstand the relationship between us.” Gizem sounded rather nonchalant.
