Chapter 357 Can You Come With Me
“Why?” Kathleen asked.
Samuel swallowed hard. “Because I don’t see any hatred in your eyes.”
Previously, Kathleen loved and hated him, and her hatred suffocated him.
However, with how things were at the moment, distance had formed between them.
In fact, he did not like it, no matter what.
On the contrary, from Kathleen’s point of view, it was probably better to forget about it so there would not be suffering anymore.
“Anything else?” Kathleen asked. “If there’s nothing else, I’m going home.”
“I’ll send you back,” he said in a hoarse voice.
Waving her hand, she rejected, “There’s no need for that. I can go home by myself. I can move my arm now, so I can drive just fine.”
He looked at her without saying anything.
“See you at the College of Medicine tomorrow afternoon,” she added awkwardly before turning to leave.
Samuel massaged the space between his eyebrows.
She’s obviously turning me down, and she doesn’t like me getting close to her at all, and I can’t do anything about it.
Bearing that thought in mind, he coughed twice.
Returning to stand by the window again, he looked out of it.
He watched her walk out of the gates alone toward a car parked not far away.
Getting into the car, she drove away.
Samuel continued to stare at her with his dark eyes until she disappeared from his sight.
At first, Kathleen wanted to drive back home, but she noticed that she was being followed, causing her to furrow her brows.
I’m sure I was alone when I got out of the house earlier, but as soon as I left Florinia Manor, someone started following me. It seems there are many eyes around Florinia Manor.
Narrowing her eyes, she stopped her car instantly.
The car that was following her stopped as well.
She then got out of her car.
However, there was no movement from the other car.
With a gun in her hand, she walked toward the other car and pointed it at the window. “Get out here!”
The car door swung open, revealing Emily.
“Kate, it’s me.”
“Mrs. Morris? What are you doing here?” Kathleen was surprised as she lowered her gun.
Emily was embarrassed. “I’m here to see you. You checked on Christopher and had someone deliver some medicine, right? But Christopher still hasn’t woken up yet even after he finished the medicine. That’s why I’m here.”
At that, Kathleen finally remembered. “I’m sorry, Mrs. Morris. Too many things have happened lately, so I totally forgot about it.”
Pursing her lips, Emily replied, “It’s okay. I didn’t expect you to be Gizem. Kathleen, can you come with me?”
Kathleen nodded deeply. “Okay. Lead the way, Mrs. Morris.”
Emily let out a relieved breath. “Thank you. I’m sorry for troubling you.”
“No worries. I promised to help. Let’s go,” Kathleen replied plainly.
After that, she walked back to her car, with Emily’s gaze set on her back.
Kathleen seems different from before.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Morris residence.
After Kathleen got out of her car, she asked casually, “Mrs. Morris, are Finn and Tracy still staying with you?”
“Something happened with Finn a few days back. Someone from his biological mother’s extended family from her second marriage took him away. Tracy left with him too,” Emily replied.
Hearing that, Kathleen frowned. “I heard that his mother had passed away?”
Emily nodded. “Yeah. She passed away not long ago. She got married to a royal family, but you know how the power struggle is with wealthy families. It’s even worse with royal families. No one knows how she died.”
Knowingly, Kathleen asked with a calm expression, “What happened to Finn?”
“I heard it was an overdose, and he was almost out of breath when they noticed it. Someone said even if he could come back, he would be crippled,” Emily explained.
Upon learning that, Kathleen was yelling in her heart.
Serves him right! How dare Finn and Theodore set me up!
As they talked, they entered the mansion.
At that time, Felix walked out of his room.
He still didn’t know that Kathleen was back from the dead.
Therefore, when he saw her, he froze, as he couldn’t believe his eyes. “Y-You!”
She looked at him indifferently. “Long time no see.”
Although she didn’t remember him, she knew that they must’ve met before.
Charles specifically told her about her relationship with the Morris family.
“You’re still alive!” Felix exclaimed, shocked.
I thought she’s dead!
Kathleen replied coldly, “Judging by your expression, I take it you really wish for my death.”
Felix didn’t say anything.
Right then, Emily pulled Kathleen’s hand. “Kate, this way.”
Kathleen’s hand was cold.
Seeing that, Felix frowned deeply. “Emily, what are you doing?”
Emily pursed her lips for a while before she turned to look at him. “What else do you think I’m doing? I’m getting treatment for Christopher, of course!”
Felix didn’t expect her to have such a big reaction.
“Since you don’t like Kathleen and don’t wish to see her, I’ll move out with Christopher tomorrow,” Emily added coldly.
Felix’s frown deepened.
He knew that Emily wasn’t happy with him.
If he hadn’t sent Christopher out to do something for him last time, Christopher wouldn’t be lying on the bed then.
Besides, there was news that the Holloway family seemed to have something to do with the incident that caused Christopher to be in that state.
Therefore, Emily was particularly dissatisfied with Felix.
There was no way she could accept Felix insulting Kathleen when she brought Kathleen back to treat Christopher.
“Let’s go, Kate,” said Emily as she pulled Kathleen upstairs.
Felix sighed silently before going back to his room.
I hope Christopher gets better. If the situation remains the same, Emily will hate me to death.
In the meantime, Emily took Kathleen upstairs and walked into Christopher’s room.
Christopher still looked the same.
Walking over, Kathleen examined him before speaking up. “He looks a lot better now. Mrs. Morris, you took good care of him. I can see that he really took all the medicine I gave him.”
“Yeah. He has always been pale last time. I didn’t even know that he was poisoned,” Emily replied with a forced smile.
Kathleen hesitated for a while. “Do you mind if I take off Christopher’s clothes to check on him, Mrs. Morris?”
Emily smiled. “Go ahead.”
“Okay. Please help me.”
Emily went forward and helped Kathleen as the latter examined Christopher.
Emily noticed that Kathleen was furrowing her brows the entire time. “What’s wrong?”
Kathleen didn’t answer her.
Instead, she walked to the end of the bed and stretched out Christopher’s toes.
“Ah, so it’s here,” she uttered, looking sullen.
Emily approached her. “What?”
Kathleen pointed to Christopher’s toe web space. “Look over here, Mrs. Morris. There’s a needle mark here.”
Emily’s eyes widened. “Where?”
Kathleen pointed it to her.
Seeing that, Emily was stunned. “Is this the truth behind Christopher’s poisoning?”
“There’s more to it. However, this proves that someone has been poisoning him for a long time,” Kathleen answered grimly.
What?
Emily’s expression changed. “But I’m the one who takes care of him this whole time!”
Kathleen asked meaningfully, “Mrs. Morris, even if you’re the one who takes care of him every day, you didn’t stay by his side all day, right?”
