All Too Late

Chapter 466

Chapter 466 You Are Not Welcome Here

 

Ashley immediately placed a call to get in touch with Samuel. The moment the call connected, she quietly asked, “Why aren’t you here yet, Samuel?”

He simply replied, “Traffic congestion.”

Traffic congestion? How’s that possible? That’s all excuses!

“Samuel, at the end of the day, I did save your life. No matter what happens today, you’re not allowed to put me in a difficult position before everyone else. Just take it that I’m begging you for your cooperation on this,” stated Ashley pleadingly.

There was no warmth in his voice when he replied, “It’s up to you whether to believe me or not.”

With that, he ended the call.

Ashley was taken aback and left speechless. Despite the surge of rage that overwhelmed her, she fought back the urge to fling her phone in her anger.

He’s too much!

As she clenched her teeth firmly together and fumed about the matter, she gave it some thought and guessed that Samuel was likely behaving this way because of Kathleen.

As such, she rose to her feet and lifted the hem of her dress up before she made her way out.

To her complete surprise, she saw that Kathleen had already arrived. The latter was dressed in a fully black gown and had a trench coat wrapped around her. It was almost as if she had come to attend a funeral.

Ashley instantly felt that this was a bad omen of things to come and sorely wanted to chase Kathleen away.

She strode over and exclaimed, “Kathleen! You’re not welcome here!”

However, Kathleen only raised her eyebrows questioningly in response.

“That aside, I didn’t even invite you! Please leave the premises at once!” yelled Ashley angrily.

“You’re right in saying that you didn’t invite me. However, the Macari family wanted to give me an invitation card,” replied Kathleen nonchalantly.

As she spoke, she pulled out the pastel-colored purple invitation card.

Ashley was caught utterly by surprise, especially since this was the exact same card that she had arranged to have sent over to the Macari family previously.

She had done so as she wanted to antagonize Calvin and Wynnie by letting them know that her engagement with Samuel was set in stone and completely unavoidable.
