All Too Late

Chapter 199 I Am Dirty

Kathleen kept her mouth shut and didn’t want to say anything anymore.

She walked out of the cemetery with heavy steps.

Then, she got in the car, leaned against the seat, and closed her eyes.

Honestly, she felt conflicted about her feelings for Samuel after what everyone had said.

She wasn’t sure what she should think about her feelings for Samuel.

Complicated thoughts flitted through her mind, especially when she saw Samuel put tombstones for the two children.

But, what of it? Does it mean everything he did could be wiped off the slate clean? They said Samuel would die. Nicolette almost sent me to the morgue. In the end, Samuel lied to me when he hid Nicolette away. Sometimes I wonder. Does Samuel even love me at all? I don’t think I’ll ever forgive him.

Thinking of this, she was furious. She couldn’t calm herself.

Not only was she not able to forgive herself, but she also couldn’t forgive Samuel.

Kathleen took in a deep breath.

Forget it. All in all, we aren’t destined to be together.

Suddenly, her phone rang, snapping Kathleen out of her daze.

“Hello?” Kathleen answered after putting on her Bluetooth earphones.

“Are you free tonight? Care to accompany me to a banquet?” Caleb asked as he sat in his office.

“No, I don’t want to go,” Kathleen refused before continuing, “I need to look at Vivian later.”

“It’s okay. I can wait. After all, I had already told everyone you’d come,” Caleb replied, his eyes narrowing.

“You…” Kathleen didn’t know how to respond.

“I’ll prepare your evening dress,” Caleb said and hung up, smirking.

Kathleen sighed.

It can’t be helped. I’ll take a look together with him then.

In the afternoon, Kathleen arrived at the Lewis residence.

Caleb wasn’t in. Although he wasn’t there, the evening dress Caleb prepared for her had already been sent to his house.

It was a purple tube top dress, and its length was only up to one’s ankle. It was matched with a pair of similar colored high heels.

With one glance, Kathleen stayed quiet.

She had to admit that Caleb had done his research on her.
