here are you?” Kathleen was shocked.

“You want to know?” Samuel purposely avoided answering that question.

“No, I don’t!” Kathleen was furious. “In any case, I was the one who asked you to break Nicolette’s legs back then. Even though you didn’t do it initially, you still did it eventually. So, no matter what happens in the future, I’ll bear all consequences with you.”

I’ll bear all consequences with you!

How sweet those words were!

However, Samuel knew that wasn’t what Kathleen meant.

“Hah, I’m not so hopeless to the point I’d drag a woman down with me,” Samuel coldly uttered. “Don’t worry. I’ll take all the blame if there’s a need. Just marry Christopher in peace when the time comes.”

“Samuel! Are you out of your mind?” Anger flashed in Kathleen’s eyes. “I’m being serious now!”

“To me, pursuing you is a serious matter.” The man’s gaze deepened. “Don’t tell me you aren’t serious about marrying Christopher?”

Kathleen was rendered speechless.

“I won’t make things difficult for you, Kate. I only hope you’ll take time to consider your relationship with Christopher properly.” Samuel paused for a moment. “Aunt Emily didn’t marry into the Morris family that easily either. She has suffered a lot even though Aaron loves her deeply. Old Mr. and Mrs. Morris are extremely good at making things difficult for her.”

“Thank you for the reminder,” she faintly responded.

“I think there’s no other wealthy family that’s as joyous and cozy as mine,” the man added.

“Samuel, I always find a deeper meaning to your words. I honestly thought those words were coming from your good intentions. But it turns out you’re just trying to brag about yourself!” Kathleen hung up the phone angrily.

She then turned and went back into the house.

Watching her walk away from the balcony opposite, Samuel pulled a smirk on his face.

She sure is cute.

Returning to her room, Kathleen browsed through Twitter.

At that moment, someone from one of her WhatsApp group chats tagged her in a message.

She clicked the pop-up notification.

John: Kathleen, is Nicolette trying to gain attention?

Before that particular text, the group had been actively chatting, but Kathleen didn’t notice it.
