Divorce Anxiety novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Going On A Date Samuel thought he was hallucinating when he heard Kathleen’s voice. It was only when he saw her handthat he eventually realized she was real. He took the glass of water and swallowed the medicine.

Under the light, his handsome face looked pale yet frail. Kathleen looked at him impassively.

“Is there a need to torture yourself like this?” Samuel shot her a sideways glance.

His gaze darkened as he said, “I'm really in pain.” “You had been injured and had fallen sick so many times before.

Don’t you know what’s drug resistance?” Kathleen frowned.

“Isn't what you're doing now considered torturing yourself?” Samuel stared at how furious she looked and swallowedhard.

“You didn't leave?” “Who's going to take care of you if I leave?” asked Kathleen, puzzled. Her reply made Samuel’s mind goblank for a second.

In a deep, hoarse voice, he asked, “Did you stay to take care of me?” Hearing that, Kathleenchuckled.

“If not, did you think I stayed to watch you torture yourself?” Samuel pursed his lips. “By the way, don’t take your medicinebefore your meal.

It's going to hurt your stomach.” Kathleen gave him an indifferent look. Samuel paused for a while before he replied, “I’mnot hungry.” Kathleen rose to her feet and switched on the light. She stood next to the bed as she cast her gaze upon that man who looked sick yet charming.

“I can't do anything if you wish to do things that harm yourself.

If you don't need me here, I can leave.” Samuel fell silent. Kathleen’s gaze darkened before she turned around. Right then, Samuel reachedout and grabbed her wrist.

His deep eyes beamed as he asked, “Is there anything for me to eat?” “I told the housekeeper to prepare some food.

If you want to eat them, I'll heat them up and bring them to you.

Is that okay?” Kathleen asked flatly. “Sure.” Samuel nodded. Kathleen stared at his slender hand and said, “Let go of me, then.” Samuel gradually released his grip. Then, Kathleen walked out ofthe room. The next instant, Samuel swiftly pinched his own thigh hard. I'm not dreaming! It's real! Kathleen really stayed to take care of me. Everything seemed too good to be true, but nonetheless, he was over the moon. In fact, he did not ask for much.

He only wished to hold a place in Kathleen's heart. It would be enough for him that she had him in her mind, regardless of what shetook him as. Lying on the bed, he placed his left arm on his forehead.

His lips curled into a bright smile. A few minutes later, Kathleen brought the food upstairs. Upon entering the room, she saw Samuelsitting on the couch obediently.

He was staring at her deeply at the same time. She walked over and placed the food on thecoffee table.

“They’re all something light.

We will find out tomorrow.” Samuel's face grew sullen. He felt that Kathleen did that on purpose, yet there was nothing he could do to prove his assumption. He hurriedlyfinished the food even though he had no appetite. After the meal, Kathleen kept everything and placed them in the corridor. The housekeeper would come to collect them in the morning. In the room, Samuel lay on the bed.

His eyes looked dull, almost vacuous. Then, his gaze fell upon Kathleen. Meanwhile, Kathleen sat on the couch, removed her shoes, and lay on her back. Even though the two were not thatclose to one another, they could hear each other's breathing. Samuel closed his eyes and felt his heart wrenching.

It was as though all kinds of emotions were stirring within him. As expected, he could not bear seeingKathleen being together with another man. He was aware of how possessive he was, yet there was nothing he could do. Kathleen would not care about it at all. It hurt so bad that he found it slightly hard to breathe. Whenever he recalled the time when Kathleen had almost married Caleb, he felt the urge to knock Kathleen out and bring her somewhere far away, somewhere nobody else would go. A place where there was only two of them, and they could be together forever. No one could ever break them up. However, Kathleen definitely would not agree to it. With his mind awash with a gamut of thoughts, Samuel gradually drifted off to sleep. Kathleen could tell he had fallen asleep just by listening to his steady breathing. She turned sideways and looked at Samuel. The dim rays cast on half of his delicate face, leaving another half of it in the dark. Samuel always gave off a domineering aura no matter what he did. She could feel her heart racing as she stared at him. However, she still found it hard to accept how stubborn Samuel was, so she decided to wait for a little longer. After a long time, she let out a sigh and closed her eyes. The next day, it was already eight o'clock when Kathleen woke up. She sat right up and grabbed her phone. Just then, Ryder's call came in. “It's me.

Where should I pick you from?” asked Ryder, smiling. “I'm at Florinia Manor.” Kathleen lifted the quilt. She was confused for a moment when she noticed that the thin blanket on herlast night had already been replaced with a quilt. Could it be Samuel who covered me with the quilt? As that thought crossed her mind, she looked in the direction of the bed, and Samuel was nowhere to be seen. He woke up that early? “Okay.

See you later.” Kathleen hung up the phone. She walked toward the bathroom, and Samuel was just comingout from there. There were still water droplets on his charming face. Kathleen was stunned for a moment.

“Why didn't you wipe your face clean?” As she said that, she grabbed the towel from the side and helped him wipe his face. Dumbfounded byher sudden act, Samuel stood rooted to the spot. He had never been that close to Kathleen in such a long time. Kathleen had always felt distant and unapproachable.

He just could not go anywhere near her. Now that Kathleen was helping him to wipe off the water on his face, he really wished his face wouldbe wet all the time. “All right.

I’m going out.

Just call the housekeeper if you need any help,” Kathleen stated flatly. Nonetheless, Samuel did not reply a word. “By theway, could I borrow the women's clothing in your closet?” asked Kathleen.
