Divorce Anxiety (Kathleen and Samuel)

Chapter 279

Chapter 279 No Choice But To Let Go

Kathleen sighed heavily.

Why are they all asking this?

In her worry, she said, "Can you stop hurting yourself this way, Samuel? If you continue this way, aren't you just letting Old Mrs. Macari down? Along with Mr. Macari and Mrs. Macari?" Samuel didn't reply.

Frustrated, Kathleen pursed her lips anxiously. She was worried that he would rush out again if he happened to get agitated.

"Enough now, Samuel. You should treat your illness," pleaded Kathleen as she furrowed her brows deeply.

"It's incurable," rasped Samuel coarsely. He continued, "After I regained consciousness, I hired an extremely well-known doctor and got him to take a look at my condition. My illness started because of you. All will be well as long as you're next to me. You're the crucial element that helps to stabilize both my condition and my emotional state."

Kathleen was stunned by his sudden declaration.

Am I really that important?

"Is there no other way?" she asked with a frown.

Samuel picked up on the difficult position that she was in and said, "I know. I can't force you to do something you don't want to. I'll try my best to manage alone."

At that, she descended into a moment of deep thought, and silence ensued.

Now that I think about it, I wonder if he overheard the things I said outside earlier. From his expression, I doubt that he did. That means he doesn't know that I kissed Caleb yesterday in order to protect him. Well... So be it. I don't want to explain myself anyway.

He took in her expression and picked up on the frustration she was feeling. As such, he didn't pursue the matter any further.

He was afraid that she would have more reason to scorn him now that she knew he was ill.

He suppressed the unhappiness he was feeling and said, "Let me wash your hair for you." She nodded and grunted in agreement.

Following that, Samuel proceeded to meticulously and delicately wash her hair. "How long will Tyson and the others need to come over?" asked Kathleen curiously. "It'll take them at least until tomorrow night. It all depends on when the storm blows over," explained Samuel.

"This is an island, correct? Is there anyone else around?" she asked.

"Not at all," he replied with a shake of his head.
