All Too Late

Christopher scoffed. “I used to set the boundaries too clearly.”

Hearing that, Samuel furrowed his brows.

“Samuel, do you know why Kathleen is head over heels in love with you?” After a short pause, Christopher added coldly, “It’s because she got the wrong person.”

“What do you mean by that?” Samuel was puzzled.

“As I expected, you have forgotten about it.” Christopher smirked and said, “About eleven years ago, we joined the school’s summer camp, and I rescued a little girl who was drowning. At the time, I was wearing your school uniform with your name on it. She was barely conscious, so she didn’t see my face clearly and only saw the name tag. Thus, she got the wrong person and thought that you were her savior. The person that she is truly looking for is me.”

Samuel was shocked.

“We are cousins, so we look similar to each other. I don’t blame her for getting the wrong person. Maybe it’s fate that she fell in love with you.” Christopher said coldly, “I thought she would live a happy life after marrying you, so I had planned to keep it a secret forever. However, since Nicolette’s return, I knew that you could no longer give her happiness. I will find an opportunity to tell her the truth. Once she is no longer infatuated with you, I can easily change the way she has perceived you for the past twenty years!”

With that, Christopher let Samuel go. Then, he turned around, got into his car, and drove away.

At that moment, Samuel felt his heart sink and found it hard to breathe.

Kathleen only fell in love with me because she was mistaken? What will she be like once she stops loving me?

For some reason, he felt uneasy. He hurriedly got into his car and rushed back to the Macari residence.

After Samuel entered the house, he looked at Tyson coldly and asked, “Where is she?”

“Mrs. Macari said she was feeling unwell, so she went back to her room,” Tyson replied hesitantly.

“You can leave now,” Samuel said without looking at him.

After a short pause, Tyson called out, “Mr. Macari.”

Upon hearing that, Samuel stopped in his tracks and asked coldly, “What is it?”

A moment of hesitation later, Tyson questioned, “Mr. Macari, have you ever gone on a proper date with Mrs. Macari even once in the past three years?”

Samuel frowned.

“Mr. Macari, I know that I shouldn’t interfere, but…” Tyson was anxious. He was worried that if he didn’t bring it up, it would be too late.

“But what?” Samuel was losing his patience.

“All relationships require maintenance.” Tyson pursed his lips and continued, “Mrs. Macari has loved you deeply for ten years. Once she is completely heartbroken, she will be able to cut off all her feelings for you and become heartless. Mr. Macari, once that happens, it will be too late.”

When that happens, there will be no hope for Mr. Macari, and it will impossible for him to gain Mrs. Macari’s love again. As long as there is hope, Mr. Macari will still be able to fight to keep their marriage.

Tyson was mentally prepared for a scolding.
