All Too Late

 Chapter 247

 Chapter 247 Pretext

“Samuel and I aren’t associated whatsoever. Why would you need my permission to pursue him?” asked Kathleen, feeling speechless from what Yareli had just said.

Yareli narrowed her eyes.

“You’re just here to look for trouble, so stop using someone else as a pretext.” Kathleen exposed her mercilessly, causing her face to flush.

“Besides, if Samuel is truly willing to date you, you wouldn’t have come to ask me this question. You’re just trying to irritate me by saying that. As if he’s really going to date you if you want.”

“How do you know he won’t agree to it? Didn’t you see us chatting happily at his place yesterday?” asked Yareli with a glacial tone.

Kathleen, who was unfazed by her words, curled her lips. “So?”

“So stop clinging onto him! I don’t like it when my boyfriend gets acquainted with another woman, especially his ex-wife.” Yareli sounded stern.

Kathleen chuckled, clearly amused by what she had just heard. “Do you mean I’m the one who’s clinging onto him?”

“Yes, exactly.” Yareli assumed that Kathleen was the reason that Samuel was giving her the cold shoulder. As long as she got rid of Kathleen, she could then build a closer relationship with Samuel.

“Oh, sure,” said Kathleen, nodding with a half-smile.

She then took out her phone and called Samuel.

After only two rings, the man answered the call, and his deep and attractive voice came from the other end of the line. “What’s wrong? Didn’t I say I’ll go and pick you up later at night?”

Kathleen put the phone on loudspeaker mode, so everyone around could hear Samuel’s words.

The crowd was stunned and wondered what was going on.

As she crossed her legs and placed her chin in one of her palms, Kathleen said, “Please do me a favor and come bring your girlfriend away. I’m afraid I’ll beat her up if you don’t come soon.”

“My girlfriend? I’ve told you before. I will never date another woman.” There was a tinge of coldness in Samuel’s tone.
