All Too Late

Chapter 473 Because You Were Not There

Kathleen guided Samuel to the restaurant.

Soon, they found a nice and quiet place to sit.

With the menu in hand, Kathleen ordered all the food that Samuel liked while he sat next to her.

There was a refreshing fragrance coming from her. He could not help but want to get close to her because of the pleasant scent.

“Kate.” Samuel inched closer to her. “Did the Lester family only ask you to treat Old Mrs. Lester?”

Picking up the pitcher beside her, she poured a glass of water for Samuel. “That’s right. What else would they ask me to do?”

Samuel pursed his thin lips. “It’s weird.”

Kathleen blinked in surprise. “So you also feel the same way?”

Samuel nodded in response.

“To be honest, it’s hard to put my finger on it. The Lester family does treat me a little strangely.” She muttered, “I just don’t understand why they treat me that way. Is it really merely because I’m treating Old Mrs. Lester’s condition?”

Samuel put her hand into his. “Do you want to know what I have discovered?”

Astounded, she questioned, “Did you already look into it?”

“How could you forget? I’m great at digging up information,” he said meaningfully.

“What did you find!” Kathleen was eager to know.

Releasing his grip around her hand, he sipped his water. “In any case, they aren’t trying to make you marry into their family.”

Kathleen was dumbfounded.

She fumed, “Of course not! Furthermore, I’d never do that.”

“Oh? Why not?” Samuel gave her a knowing look.

Kathleen raised a brow. “What do you think?”

“How would I know?” replied Samuel indifferently.

He continued to sip his water, unrelenting.

Kathleen smiled wordlessly. “It’s because you’re the best. I have to marry you.”
