hapter 224 Why Are You Scared

Kathleen said, “I didn’t forget about that.”

“That’s good, then.” Samuel gave her a gentle smirk. “I’m free all the time.”

He went inside shortly after saying this.

Kathleen massaged her sore temples.

Her head did not stop hurting.

She felt really helpless.

I have to make a deal with Samuel tomorrow.

With that thought, she turned around and went back.

Samuel closed the door when he saw her go in, but he was reluctant to draw the curtains.

He sat on the bed, looking at the opposite window, his eyes thoughtful.

The next day, after Kathleen had breakfast, she was ready to go to the set to film when Charles gave her the notice.

“Here, have a look.”

“I’ll read on the way,” Kathleen said.

“The director has instructed the actors to stay in a hotel arranged for by the crew for a few days,” said Charles blandly. “I’ll have someone pack and send your stuff over to you. It’ll be the end of the year soon. I reckon he wants to film more and give you all a proper vacation.”

Kathleen nodded in response. “Got it.”

Charles said worriedly, “I’ll have your meals prepared and sent over to you.”

“Okay.” Kathleen took the notice and went out.

She got in the car and glanced at her phone. Her schedule was full, and she was really busy enough.

When she got to the set, she put on makeup and got to filming. She did not wrap things up until late that night.

Throughout the day, she did not have time to deal with her personal affairs.

After managing to carve out a few precious minutes for herself, Kathleen gave Caleb a call.

However, Caleb did not answer.

Just as she was about to call him again, there was a knock on the door.

Who could it be?

Kathleen went to open the door.

To her surprise, she found Caleb standing there.

“I received your call, Ms. Johnson.” Caleb curved his lips into a smirk.

Kathleen looked at him in puzzlement. “Why are you here?”

“Didn’t you ask me to come?” Caleb raised his eyebrows.
