All Too Late

Chapter 259 Celebrating New Year Together

After a few days, the film crew got a few days off because of the new year holidays.

Kathleen had been looking forward to it.

She moved from the hotel that the film crew had booked back to the mansion.

“Granny, what would you like to eat? I’m going to make some for you tomorrow.” Kathleen sat beside Frances with a notebook.

Frances smiled and said, “I will enjoy anything you make, Katie.”

Kathleen noticed that Frances had been influenced by Diana and started to call her Katie too.

“All right.” Kathleen kneeled on the carpet before the coffee table and planned out her menu seriously.

Ding dong.

The doorbell rang right then.

The housekeeper went to open the door. To her surprise, it was Samuel. “Mr. Macari?”

“I’m here to fetch Old Mrs. Yoeger,” he said coolly.

Meanwhile, Kathleen was rather surprised to hear what Samuel said.

Samuel had not looked for her in the past few days, nor had he appeared in front of her.

He had only sent two text messages a day—good morning and good night.

Kathleen did not know what he was getting at.

The housekeeper was stumped and blurted, “What?”

He eyed the housekeeper coldly.

The housekeeper snapped out of her surprise and immediately gave way to him.

Samuel headed inside the house and arrived in the living room as he eyed Frances and Kathleen.

“Good morning,” he said in his usual husky voice.

Kathleen blinked in surprise. “Why are you here?”

His tone was gentle. “I’m here to fetch Old Mrs. Yoeger to the Macari residence.”

“What?” Kathleen asked, confused.

He looked at Frances and said, “Old Mrs. Yoeger, do you remember? A few days ago, you promised my grandma that you would celebrate New Year at the Macari residence.”

Frances was hit by a pang of realization. “Ah, I’ve forgotten all about it.”

Kathleen was rather speechless.

“Old Mrs. Yoeger, my grandma has asked me to come and pick you up. Could you ask someone to pack your things? We’re going to leave when you’re ready,” Samuel said.
