Chapter 212 Warn Him
Even Kathleen became choked up.
She bitterly asked, “Did you assume I faked my depressed state back then?”
“No. That’s not what I meant.” Samuel’s dark eyes now took on a tinge of red as he added, “It’s just that I lacked empathy back then and didn’t try to understand things from your perspective. I’m sorry.”
Not a trace of emotion showed on Kathleen’s delicate face.
Behind her, Samuel’s hot breath tickled her skin while his tear landed in the crook of her neck.
Silence filled the air as the afternoon sun shone into the space from the windows above.
It felt as though there was no one in the bathroom.
Both Samuel and Kathleen knew the truth deep down in their hearts.
They got stuck in this perpetual state of being unable to move or return to the way things used to be, and they were both to blame. The indefinite loathing in Kathleen’s heart prevented the two from moving on while Samuel’s past actions had blocked off any possibility for them to return to the way things were.
It was then that a series of knocks came from outside the door.
Samuel let go of Kathleen, who then stood up.
She instructed, “That should be long enough. You can come out of the tub and get dressed before having your meal.”
“Okay.” Samuel nodded compliantly.
After that, Kathleen went to open the door outside, where Tyson stood with two bags.
“Ms. Johnson, I’m here to deliver some things to Mr. Macari,” said the latter.
“You can come in.”
Once Tyson entered, Kathleen stepped out of the room and said, “I’ll have a look at things outside for a bit.”
“Okay,” replied Tyson who had put down the bags in his hand.
