All Too Late

Chapter 471 Can You Adopt Me

“No, of course not.” Levi shook his head.

Why would there be a problem? There’s no way they’d do anything to her.

“Let’s go. Everyone is already seated.” Levi brought Kathleen to the dining room and sat down.

Betty was absent from the dining table due to her health condition; the maid had sent the meal to her room.

“Mr. Lester, about Old Mrs. Lester’s condition—” Kathleen looked at Anthony.

“Kate, eat up. My husband has something to tend to, so he’ll be late, but us Lesters are all around.” Yvonne put some food on Kathleen’s plate before she even finished speaking.

Us Lesters?

Kathleen could definitely feel that something was off.

“I—” she began.

Anthony interrupted with a half-smile, “Ms. Johnson, you don’t have to worry. We asked Levi to invite you here because we believe in your medical skills.”

Kathleen spoke faintly. “Old Mrs. Lester is old. It’s quite risky for her to undergo surgery.”

The old woman was eighty years old, after all.

“Do you not have confidence, too?” Anthony queried.

“Though I’m confident, you’ll never know what’s going to happen on the operating table. Since you’ve made a decision, I shall arrange for Old Mrs. Lester to be admitted to the hospital and keep a close eye on her condition before taking the next step. What do you think?” said Kathleen.

Anthony nodded in agreement. “All right. We’ll listen to you.”

“Okay.”

“Kate’s medical skills are so impressive. We should believe in her. Let’s eat, shall we?” Yvonne urged.

Everyone began eating.

As Kathleen ate slowly, Yvonne, who was sitting next to her, wouldn’t stop adding food to her plate.

Kathleen was never a big eater, so it was impossible for her to finish all the food that was piled on her plate like a tiny mountain.

Can someone please help me finish some?

After the meal, the Lesters all went to the study.

Kathleen, who was stuffed, decided to take a walk in the garden to help her digest better.

When she walked near the gate, she saw a black car parked outside and a tall figure standing beside the car.

The figure exuded immense loneliness that couldn’t be ignored.
