Kathleen bit her lip and said, “I’m not nervous. Samuel, I don’t want to look back.”
In truth, there was no way she could turn things back to how they used to be.
Samuel looked at her delicate and flushed cheeks. He wanted to kiss her but he held himself back.
“I know. I’m not forcing you to go back.” His voice was slightly hoarse.
Kathleen secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Samuel turned around and got in the car.
“What would you like to eat?” Samuel asked.
Kathleen glanced at the time. It was already one o’clock.
“Just find a restaurant.” She thought for a while and continued, “It seems like the two of us haven’t eaten out together before.”
Samuel nodded. “That’s true.”
“Back then, you were always afraid that we would get caught on camera by the media. Were you afraid that Nicolette would get mad after she found out and choose not to come back?” Kathleen asked curiously.
Samuel looked at her deeply and asked, “Do you want to hear the truth?”
Kathleen nodded and replied, “Why would I ask if I don’t want to hear the truth?”
Samuel looked straight into her eyes. “Well, it’s not entirely right. You know my identity. It’d cause you trouble if you got exposed. Of course, it’s true that I neglected your feelings. As for Nicolette, I didn’t think about it that much.”
He had not thought about it at all.
and he just felt there was a need to protect his privacy.
However, Samuel finally understood it now.
There was no need to sacrifice someone for the sake of his privacy.
If he had just admitted it openly, the media would not have probed further on that matter.
Blinking, Kathleen said bitterly, “It seems like we don’t know each other well enough, so it’s normal for us to part way from one another. Maybe we would break up too even without Nicolette.”
“Not necessarily,” Samuel replied in a deep voice.
In actuality, he had thought about it.
He might not divorce her, as he had never thought of letting her go when he began to realize his affection for Kathleen.
