Chapter 412 Guess Whose Face This Is

 

“It’s not wise for you to appear before them right now. Why don’t I go instead?” Charles grimly stated.

 

That was when Clarissa immediately offered, “I’ll go with you since I’m more adept at determining whether Zachary is truly dead.”

Charles glanced at her with deep intent before finally nodding. “Okay, let’s go.”

The two promptly took their leave.

A dark emotion flickered in Kathleen’s narrowed eyes just then.

Doesn’t Clarissa seem a little too proactive? Oh well. I guess it’s best to let Charles realize some things on his own. After all, who’s to say Charles is interested in Clarissa? Plus, she might not want him to know her feelings. If I tell Charles that I think Clarissa’s interested in him, it might make things awkward.

The only thing keeping Kathleen together these days was Samuel.

 

However, a week had already passed, yet he showed no signs of waking up.

He would previously twitch a little when dreaming, but that did not happen anymore.

How frustrating!

With that thought, Kathleen turned to go upstairs and check on him.

Samuel lay unconscious on the bed. His breathing was stable, but his chest barely rose or fell.

Kathleen approached him, sat on the bed, and held his hand while speaking. “I used to think you were too quiet and wondered if you talked more when around Nicolette. Now that I’m seeing you like this, I can’t help but miss the way you used to be.

“Please wake up, Samuel. Haven’t you slept enough? Please just come around, okay? Let’s not fight anymore. Can’t we spend the rest of our days peacefully?”

Despite her efforts, Samuel did not respond.

That sparked annoyance in Kathleen, who instantly snapped, “I’ve already asked you nicely! Why won’t you wake up? Ugh, you’re so mean!”

There was still no response.

Subsequently, Kathleen leaned closer to him while frowning. “What’s so good about staying unconscious anyway? Don’t tell me that you’re dreaming about Nicolette!”

It was then that she pointed at Samuel’s chiseled face. “Do you not love me anymore? I bet the Nicolette in your dreams is super gentle toward you, huh? I bet she’s so much better than me. Is that why you’re unwilling to wake up?”

Only silence came from Samuel.

“Jeez, fine. I’ll stop joking around. You go ahead and rest up then,” said a sighing Kathleen.
