All Too Late

Chapter 389 Anyone Would Have Done The Same

 “Those are meant for you, anyway.” Samuel’s voice was hoarse. 

“I’ll pay you,” replied Kathleen. 

“You don’t have to.” Heshook his head. “But I'm going to wear them for the date with Ryder.” The woman's bright eyes met with his. Samuel was stumped.

 “So let me pay you.If not, it'd feel odd,” came Kathleen's implicit remark. Samuel lowered his head.

“Just wear them.Since I bought them for you, you can wear them as you wish.” After saying that, he walked past her.

 “Thank you.You're such a kind person.” Kathleen grinned. Samuel was rendered speechless. I don’t want you to take me as just a kind person! 

After that, Kathleen went to freshen herself up. She took a light-yellow dress out of the closet. The dress had a square neckline that would reveal her collarbone.

It was a sleeveless piece, and the hem of the dress was slightly above the knee.

The overall style was fresh and youthful. When Kathleen came out wearing that dress, Samuel was completely stunned by that sight. Of course, he knew better than anyone else how fair she was. Alas, she dressed up so beautifully only to date another man. Samuel felt he was on the verge of losing his mind. She certainly knows how to torture me. 

“I'm leaving,” said Kathleen before leaving. Samuel gulped and turned to look out of the window. Ryder had come to pick Kathleen up, and he parked his car right at the entrance. Kathleen left the house and got into Ryder's car.

Shortly after, the two left. Samuel started coughing all of a sudden. The injury he had suffered was no match for the pain he felt at this moment. Hisface paled in mere seconds. He took his phone and called Tyson.

“Go find out where Kathleen and Ryder are going for their date.” Tyson was startled.

“Mrs.Macari and Mr.Xenakis are going on a date?”

 “Cut the crap.Go!” Samuel ordered sternly. 

“Yes.” Tyson immediately hung up the phone. Wearing a grim look, Samuel called the butler.
