Divorce Anxiety (Kathleen and Samuel)

Chapter 363 Here For Your Money

Kathleen reached the door to Samuel’s office and announced her arrival with a knock on the door.

The door was flung open soon enough.

Samuel was the one who opened the door for her. “The next time you’re here, don’t forget you’re not obliged to knock.”

Hearing that, Kathleen was stumped momentarily before responding, “No, that’d be too impolite.”

Samuel gestured for her to step inside.

As she entered the office, her curiosity got the better of her. “Was I that ill-mannered in the past?”

“No, of course not.” Samuel’s voice was as deep as a bottomless pit.

“That’s good, then. I really don’t wish to be despised because of my attitude.” A sigh of relief came from Kathleen’s mouth.

It was heart-rending for Samuel to hear those words, though. “No matter what others say about you, you’re one fine lady.”

Gentle, soft, unyielding, and brave.

Samuel’s praise left Kathleen dumbstruck for a second. “Thanks for the compliment.”

Staring blankly at her, Samuel said, “Give me a minute. I’ll settle something and then we can go meet that person.”

“Had I known you’re still busy, I wouldn’t have come up here,” grumbled Kathleen.

“Huh? Why?” Samuel’s handsome face froze as he heard that.

Would she lose a limb for waiting a little while for me?

“You know, just now, I saw Xienna downstairs.” Kathleen seemed to be insinuating something. “She was very worried about you, and she thinks I’m harming you.”

Upon hearing that, Samuel knitted his brows. “Should I be held responsible for her actions?” An unfathomable grimace inundated his good looks.

Noticing him flying off the handle, Kathleen kept her lips buttoned and scanned her surroundings.

In an instant, her brows were all bunched up tightly. “During my last visit, I asked the doctor about my condition. She claimed that my kind of amnesia could be improved pretty easily if I were to frequently have contact with the people and places I’m accustomed to, but why am I not sensing any familiarities when I step in here?”

Samuel’s hoarse voice came in response. “That’s because you were seldom here.”

Nodding, Kathleen agreed to his statement, “Well, I can’t debate that. This is your workplace, after all.”

A feeling of bitterness crept into Samuel’s heart.
