Chapter 288 Reassurance
Derek turned around and left.
Samuel glanced at Kathleen with a grim expression.
She looked back at him in silence.
“Do you believe it now?” Samuel gazed at her sternly.
Nodding, Kathleen apologized, “Yes. I’m sorry.”
“I’ve told you before. It’s pointless to apologize.” Samuel cupped her chin and continued, “You know what I want.”
Gnashing her teeth, she yelled, “You just want to take advantage of me!”
Samuel flashed her a half-smile. “Nobody forced you to agree on this. I wouldn’t have done anything to you if you didn’t agree earlier. You’re too naive.”
Kathleen was livid by his cheeky attitude.
“Do you want to do it here or in the car?” Samuel’s lips curled up in a devilish smile.
Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Kathleen replied, “In the car.”
“Let’s go.” Samuel grabbed Kathleen’s hand and led her to the car.
As soon as they sat down in the back seat, Samuel instantly cupped Kathleen’s chin and kissed her.
She had no strength to struggle free.
Ten minutes later, Kathleen’s face flushed with embarrassment as she stared at him with misty eyes.
I can’t believe he kissed me for ten minutes! D*mn it!
Samuel snorted at her. “You’re a terrible kisser.”
Unsurprisingly, Kathleen was furious by his remark.
Shoving him away, she exclaimed, “I’ve already apologized to you. Goodbye!”
Having had enough, Kathleen was getting ready to leave.
Samuel wanted to send her back. However, he knew Kathleen would turn him down, looking at her expression.
Forget about it. I should send someone to protect her secretly.

As Kathleen drove home, she called Charles on her Bluetooth earphones.
Biting her lip, she said, “Charles, it’s me. Something has happened to the Yoeger family.”
Charles frowned. “What’s going on?”
“Someone secretly helped Nicolette. She took Vanessa away and then injured Zachary. Nicolette has left Jadeborough. She should be overseas now,” Kathleen explained, frowning.
“Did that really happen? Why would Nicolette take Vanessa away?” Charles was stunned.
“I told Nicolette that the person who needed her kidney was Vanessa. Zachary was totally fine. It was Vanessa who wanted to kill two birds with one stone. She wanted to get rid of both of them,” Kathleen explained.
Charles paused for a moment before asking, “Are you safe over there?”
“I’m fine, Charles. What about you?” she inquired worriedly.
“Those two brothers are competing fiercely against each other. They’re trying to win my favor. I don’t know who’s behind this for the time being,” Charles explained.
Thinking of something, Kathleen said, “I found a phone number in Nicolette’s room. It’s from overseas. I’ll send it to you later. Please help me check the number.”
“All right. It’s very chaotic over here. So, don’t come here for the time being and never leave Giselle’s side. Understood?” he reminded.
Kathleen’s frown deepened. “Charles, are you fine over there?”
Charles let out a chuckle. “Of course, I’m fine. They won’t do anything to me as long as I don’t pick a side. Don’t worry about me.”
“Okay.” Kathleen nodded.
Even so, she was still concerned about her brother’s safety.
We have to solve these issues in Jadeborough as soon as possible.
The next day, Kathleen went to the filming set first.
She had too much on her plate lately.
The film crew was thrilled to see her on the set.
“They’ve received Mr. Macari’s payment,” Valerie informed.
Kathleen also knew about the situation at work.
She was busy doing the reshoots the entire morning.
Kathleen swiftly got into the character and managed to shoot the scenes without having a retake so that no one could find faults in her acting.
In the evening, Samuel came to the filming set when they finished shooting.
Furrowing her eyebrows, she asked, “Didn’t you promise not to pester me?”
“Zachary’s awake,” Samuel said coldly.
“Should I visit him in the hospital, then?”
Samuel cast her a meaningful look. “He said he wants to meet us.”
Kathleen was puzzled. Why would Zachary want to meet us?
“I’ll wait for you to get changed.” He stood at the door of the lounge with no intention of entering.
“It’s even weirder for you to stand there.” Kathleen frowned at him.
Arching his brows, Samuel stepped inside the lounge.
Kathleen had meant to tell Samuel to wait for her in the car. Nevertheless, he completely misinterpreted her words.
What a bother!
She reluctantly went inside to change her clothes.
Ten minutes later, the duo left the filming set and headed toward the hospital.
Zachary’s complexion looked pale as he lay on the bed.
“You guys are here,” he uttered weakly.
He was shot in the shoulder and the calf. Nonetheless, his injuries were not serious.
Zachary would be fine as long as he recuperated smoothly.
Glancing at him indifferently, Kathleen probed, “Why did you ask us to come here?”
