All Too Late

Chapter 477 Dead

A few days later, Betty’s condition stabilized, and she was ready to undergo surgery.

Kathleen applied to the local hospital to borrow their operating room to carry out Betty’s surgery.

Prior to the surgery, the elderly lady was already admitted into the hospital for pre-operative management.

Kathleen began preparing for the surgery as well.

Samuel walked up to her. “Kate, I’ll be leaving in a while.”

She was shocked. “Where are you going?”

“I’m going to Pollerton to visit the kids because I miss them. I’ll be back soon.” He hugged her from behind.

Kathleen nodded. “Okay. Go ahead then. It’s normal for you to miss them since you are their father. Moreover, after all the things that had happened previously, they must be feeling sad.”

“Okay.” Samuel kissed her on the cheek. “Good luck with the surgery.”

“Okay.” Kathleen smiled faintly.

He said in a hoarse voice, “I’ll be back in time before you’re done with the operation.”

Nardor was not far from Pollerton.

Samuel reckoned he would be able to return in time in the afternoon if he departed earlier.

“I got it. Be careful.” She continued wearing her carefree smile.

He nodded, turned on his heels, and left.

After that, Kathleen carried on with her preparation.

She knew what Samuel was actually going to do and was also aware of why he had not been honest with her.

I’ll leave that matter to him because I have something more important to deal with now.

Samuel returned to Pollerton.

He went directly to the condominium Ashley was staying in and knocked on the door.

A thin woman opened the door. She uttered in astonishment, “S-Samuel…”

Samuel gazed at that woman’s face indifferently. It really is her.
