All Too Late

Chapter 400 You Will Come Back

Tears were brimming in Kelly’s eyes. 

“She is if you believe she is.” Leonard squeezed her jaw. 

“After all these years, you’ve finally admitted it. If that was the case, you’d know how much I despise you. Why did you come to me for help?” Kelly felt bitter.

She wouldn’t have gone to Leonard if it hadn’t been for the fact that he was Felicia’s biological father and an influential person in Jadeborough.

She struggled to find the appropriate words to say as tears streamed from her eyes and down her cheeks like a broken string of pearls.

At that very moment, she was experiencing both physical and psychological pain.

After witnessing Kelly in such a state before him, Leonard could not experience any sense of pleasure.

The only emotion he felt was anger.

She had acted as if she did not know him when he bumped into her that day.

By then, he was already enraged.He found it hard to believe that someone could be as cruel as Kelly, who had considered their prior relationship as nothing more than a dream and had since forgotten about it.

Leonard had immersed himself in his suffering from their parting, yet Kelly somehow managed to act as if nothing happened and begged him for help to find her child.He released Kelly from his grip, and the latter immediately slumped to the ground.

“Do you think I’m still that fool from the past?” Leonard rasped. 

“Do you think that I’ll still do anything for you?”

Rubbing her neck, Kelly pleaded, “Please, Leonard, Please help me. Felicia was supposed to be with my mom. I wouldn’t have come to bother you if she didn’t threaten me with Felicia. I mean it.”

Leonard’s hands tightly balled into fists at her words.It was still bearable when Kelly had not provided an explanation. But as she did, Leonard only grew angrier.He found it hard to accept that the reason she attended the blind date was merely due to her mother’s threat.Is my presence that unbearable to her?

“Get lost!” Leonard barked. “I never want to see you again.”

By then, Kelly knew that her pleads were no use.She stood up and staggeringly found her way to the exit.

It seems like I can only depend on myself to find Felicia.

Leonard went to the bathroom after the incident.He twisted the tap open and splashed some cold water on his face, feeling calmer after that.

Yet, beneath his reddened eyes was anger, pure anger that did not diminish even after splashing himself with cold water.

He exited the bathroom three minutes later, took his phone, and made a call to Samuel.

However, the one to pick up the call was not Samuel, but Kathleen.

“Where’s Samuel?” Leonard asked, slightly surprised.
