All Too Late

Chapter 385 An Ambush

“There’s no progress,” Samuel replied truthfully.

Calvin threw his son a look of utter disdain. “You might’ve inherited my looks, but it looks like your EQ is not as good as mine.”

Samuel said curtly, “Should I record the first half of your sentence and send it to Mom?”

“Don’t you dare!” Calvin huffed and glared at Samuel. “You’re the one having problems with your marriage, and you’re trying to make me suffer with you?”

“No. I want you to live happily.”

Calvin found Samuel’s words insincere.

“You should check on Kate. It’s a rare opportunity for you to meet her. Don’t miss it,” the former urged.

Truth was, he could not bear to see his son’s long face.

Thankfully, Samuel took his advice and left.

Calvin snorted quietly while watching him leave.

Meanwhile, Kathleen and Tyson arrived at the underground warehouse.

Sure enough, many things were stored there.

“Mrs. Macari, these tables and chairs are extras from Macari Group’s renovation a few months ago.” Tyson was used to addressing Kathleen that way, which took her by surprise.

Noticing the look on her face, Tyson grew flustered and covered his mouth. “Ms. Johnson, I’m so sorry. I’m too used to it.”

Kathleen studied him in silence. “Do you refer to me as that when you’re talking to the others?”

Tyson smiled sheepishly. “I’ll change it.”

“Has Samuel ever corrected you?” Kathleen asked in puzzlement.

“Of course not. Mr. Macari told us he’ll never let anyone take over your position. He makes us acknowledge you as the only female boss. In fact, he’ll execute anyone who dares to pull strings for other women.”

Kathleen found the news amusing. “Does he see himself as a king? Execute? Seriously?”

Tyson scratched his head in confusion. “In a way, this is Mr. Macari’s territory.”

Kathleen’s eyes glinted. “Indeed, it’s his territory.”

“What are you two talking about?” Samuel elegantly sauntered over.

“Nothing.” Kathleen shook her head.
