Chapter 389
Anyone Would Have Done The Same “Those are meant for you, anyway.” Samuel’s voice was hoarse.
“I’ll pay you,” replied Kathleen.
“You don’t have to.” He shook his head. “But I’m going to wear them for the date with Ryder.” The woman’s bright eyes met with his. Samuel was stumped. “So let me pay you.
If not, it’d feel odd,” came Kathleen’s implicit remark. Samuel lowered his head.
“Just wear them.
Since I bought them for you, you can wear them as you wish.”
After saying that, he walkedpast her. “Thank you.
You’re such a kind person.” Kathleen grinned. Samuel was rendered speechless. I don’t want you to take me as just akind person! After that, Kathleen went to freshen herself up. She took a light-yellow dress out of the closet. The dress had a square neckline that would reveal her collarbone.
It was a sleeveless piece, and the hem of the dress was slightly above the knee.
The overall style was fresh and youthful. When Kathleen came out wearing that dress, Samuel was completely stunned by that sight.
Of course, he knewbetter than anyone else how fair she was. Alas, she dressed up so beautifully only to date another man. Samuel felt he was on the verge of losing his mind. She certainly knows how to torture me. “I’m leaving,” said Kathleen before leaving. Samuel gulped and turned to look out of the window. Ryder had come to pick Kathleen up, and he parked his car right at the entrance. Kathleen left the house and got into Ryder’s car.
Shortly after, the two left. Samuel started coughing all of a sudden.
The injury he had suffered was no match for the pain he felt at this moment.
Hisface paled in mere seconds. He took his phone and called Tyson.
“Go find out where Kathleen and Ryder are going for their date.”
Tyson was startled.
“Mrs.
Macari and Mr.
Xenakis are going on a date?”
“Cut the crap.
Go!” Samuel ordered sternly. “Yes.” Tyson immediately hung up the phone. Wearing a grim look, Samuel called the butler.
“Help me get changed and call the Macari residence.
Tell them I’m picking the kids up.” The butler was shocked.
“Mr.
Macari, are you still going out even when you’re injured?” “Yes.
Go get ready.” Samuel nodded. “All right.” The butler dared not go against his wish, so he could only do as Samuel instructed.
Samuel’s charming face grewmore solemn. I wonder what Kathleen and Ryder are doing now. As soon as Ryder saw Kathleen, his lips curled into a grin. Kathleen got into the car.
“Mr.
Xenakis, aren’t you going to start the car?” Ryder started the engine.
“Where are we going?” Kathleen asked curiously.
“We’re going to a resort, andit’s located on the outskirts of the city.
It’s a resort invested by one of my business partners.
They’re having their soft opening today, so they told me to pay a visit.
That’s why I thought of bringing you there to relax for a bit.”
Kathleen nodded at his explanation.
It seems like the date is pretty different from what I expected.
“They have malls and places for movies there.
I bet you will like it,” Ryder said confidently as though he could read her mind.
Kathleen felt alittle embarrassed.
“I wasn’t expecting too much, actually.” “But I can tell you’ve put in a lot of effort in dressing up.”
The man flashed her a half-smile, and Kathleen responded with a faintsmile.
“I’m merely wearing a bright-colored dress.” In truth, she did not even put on makeup and had only applied lipstick. Even so, she already looked exceptionally stunning. Ryder chuckled.
“I heard that Mr.
Macari is injured.
Is he okay?”
“Not really.
It’s still hard to tell if his hand could recover fully.
Even after he recovers, it’s not necessarily that he could still use his hand as he did in the past,” said Kathleen, shaking her head.
“What a pity.” Ryder’s gaze darkened.
Kathleens lightly clenched her hand.
“He wouldn’t have gotten hurt if he hadn’t tried to save me.”
Ryder gave her a meaningful look.
“Don’t blame yourself.
No one wished for this to happen.
Under such circumstances, I would’ve done the same to protect you if I were there.”
Kathleen stared at him without saying a word.
“Anyone else would’ve done the same,” Ryder explained.
Anyone else would’ve done the same? Kathleen looked out of the window.
To Samuel, maybe there is no such saying. An hour later, they finally arrived at the resort.
The resort was lively and bustling with people.
It was obvious that they had just started the business. Ryder parked the car and said to her, “It’s their soft opening today, so there are not too many people.
There will also be some reporters around, but of course, I’ll not make you go in front of the cameras.”
Kathleen went into a daze for a moment before she snapped back to her senses.
“Okay.” Then, they got out of the car together. It was a sunny day.
Kathleen’s fair skin seemed like it was glowing under the soft daylight.
Even though she had a fair complexion, she did not look sickly.
Her skin was slightly pinkish, and she looked just like a peach.
Ryder’s gaze grew darker.
