All Too Late

Chapter 269 

Kathleen understood immediately. “I get it. You’re saying that only a woman could take care of a child well. Besides, if he asked Isaac for help, Isaac would have to look for a nanny, too. That way, there would be one more person aware of the matter, making it riskier. Am I right?” 

Samuel nodded. 

“But a woman, huh?” Kathleen frowned. “I wonder who could it be?” 

Seeing how she was thinking hard with furrowed brows, Samuel felt a bit sad. 

If she asked him for help, he would be glad to offer it. 

However, she never turned to him and resorted to doing everything on her own. 

“I can look into it for you if you’d like ” Samuel offered calmly. 

Kathleen was taken aback. “I’ve already asked too much 

“Just think of it as me paying you back for the treatment. Since you refused the company’s shares, this is the only way I could think of to not owe you a favor” Samuel said indifferently. 

Kathleen paused for a moment before agreeing. 

Since he doesn’t want to owe me one, I’ll just accept his help. 

“Give me three days.” He then added coldly. “You may get off the car now.” 

Feeling speechless, Kathleen got off the car without a word. 

As Samuel stared at her departing figure, he felt heartbroken. But more than that, he felt irritated, which was very unlike him. 

When he saw Caleb coming out of the mansion to bring Kathleen in, he scoffed. 

Caleb will never have Kathleen! 

While walking into the mansion, Kathleen looked at Caleb and inquired, “Did you have a good rest?” 

“I had a good sleep, thanks to you,” Caleb said with a smick. 

“That’s good to hear. I’ll ask the chef to prepare some food. What time are your parents arriving?” 

“Around midnight. After a short pause, Caleb added, “You should come with me. My dad and I won’t be able to coax my mom.’ 

Kathleen gave it a thought and replied, “All right.” 

The woman was also Vivian’s mother, so it was only right that Kathleen should help. 

Caleb knew that Kathleen had a soft heart. 

In fact, he thought that it was too easy to trick her.
