Divorce Anxiety (Kathleen and Samuel)

Chapter 246 Do You Agree If I Woo Him

“Don’t worry about this sort of thing next time. Just leave it to me.” Samuel cracked a grin.

Glaring daggers at him, Kathleen fumed, “Don’t you dare spout nonsense like this!”

She had never once thought of reconciling with Samuel.

I’ll never get back together with him!

“What I mean is, I’ve always been sorting this out in your absence,” explained Samuel.

Kathleen let out a light snort as soon as she heard it.

She then followed her train of thought as she continued her feast. “The Brooks family resided so far away in Norham, so what does Yareli want with him to go all the way there?”

Samuel gazed at her intently. “Maybe you can look at it from a different perspective. Sean may be the one who’s looking for her instead.”

Kathleen was surprised as she looked Samuel in the eyes, only to find the latter’s darkened gaze.

“But the Brooks family is a military family, so why would they require Yareli?” Kathleen had no clue whatsoever.

Samuel reminded her, “Since they’re connected to the army, they could offer Yareli a wealth of aid. Yet, their foundation is in Jipsdale, so it’d be quite inconvenient for them to carry out whatever businesses they have in Jadeborough.”

“You mean… Yareli is acting as their middlewoman?” Kathleen made a wild guess.

Samuel nodded in response.

Realization dawned upon Kathleen. “It’s impossible for the Brooks family to talk business with Yareli. It can only be something else, then.”

“That’s right.” Samuel’s visage remained as calm as a millpond. “They have to be sharing some kind of top secret.”

“What makes you say that?” Kathleen blinked her eyes at that.

“Because… I’m also not so sure myself,” replied Samuel ever so leisurely. “If that’s something not to my knowledge, it can only be a secret.”

“Samuel, why don’t you just admit that you don’t always have access to every single piece of information under the sun?” Kathleen leered at him the whole time.

Unconcerned, Samuel gave his feedback. “It’s not about me not admitting to it. But rather, I’ve known my limit a year ago when I searched high and low for you but ended up in vain. Other than that, nothing has ever been a stumbling block for me. As for this matter, I can only say that Yareli herself doesn’t know much as well. All she has been doing was running errands blindly for the Brooks family.”

His words were like a bolt from the blue to Kathleen. She blurted out, “What? You mean, all this while, she has been doing their bidding without even asking? Interesting…”

Samuel glanced at her. “The Brooks family must have offered her an astronomical amount of benefits beyond our imagination.”

With a soft tone, Kathleen asked, “Are you implying that Yareli may deal with me through the Brooks family’s hands?”

Samuel inclined his head.
