Divorce Anxiety novel Chapter 469

Chapter 469 Punish Him Gemma smiled faintly. “Not really. After all, it was a seven-year relationship. But I will try my best. Trust me, Kate.”Kathleen nodded. “Okay. I trust you.” Gemma smiled. “Now that you guys are finally here, what do you say we make some ravioli?” “Sure.

Let’s go to the kitchen.” Kathleen agreed.

“Okay.” As the two of them prepared the ingredients in the kitchen, Gemma asked Kathleen, “Kate, the reason you came to Pollerton this time isn’t toavoid Samuel, right?” “Of course not.

I promised Levi to treat Old Mrs.

Lester’s illness,” explained Kathleen.

“I see.

Looks like you're going to stay in Pollerton for some time, huh?” Gemma nodded.

“No.

Old Mrs.

Lester is in Nardor.

I could just drive to Nardor from Pollerton, so I'm just stopping halfway here,” answered Kathleen.

“Ah, I see.

You're just bringing the kids with you because it's safer, right?” Gemma understood her intention.

“Yeah.” Kathleen bobbed her head.

“I’ve seen the news.

Samuel chased you all the way to the airport, but you didn’t even turn to spare a glance at him.

Are you punishing him?” “Yeah, kind of,” said Kathleen coldly.

“Will you forgive him if he comes all the way here?” Gemma was curious.

Kathleen pondered for a while before replying, “I don't think he will.

He has such a proud nature.

I think I hurt his pride when I blatantly ignored him.” “Yeah, I guess you’re right.

He's no longer his past self, after all.” Gemma sighed.

“Are there any differences?” asked Kathleen.

“Of course.

He lost his memory, so maybe he has a different mindset now.

When he hurt you in the past, he would try to control himself or even harm himself.

But now that he doesn't remember anything, he might think it’s better to just let you go so that the two of you can live peacefullyapart.” Kathleen lowered her eyes and replied, “Yeah.

Maybe.” Gemma gazed at the look in Kathleen's eyes before smiling.

After lunch, Kathleen said to Gemma, “Levi and I will be driving to Nardor now.

I’ll be leaving the kids to you, Gem.

Don’t worry.

There are bodyguards everywhere.” “All right.

I'll take good care of them for you.” Gemma smiled.

“Thanks.

See you.” Kathleen got up.

It took one and a half hours for the two of them to reach the Lester residence in Nardor.

“It’s indeed not far away at all.

Looks like you won't have to stay here,” said Levi.

“I wasn't planning on it either.” Kathleen lifted her head to look at the Lester residence, which exuded an air of mystery.

The huge mansion seemed to be hiding a lot of peculiar secrets.

Nonetheless, she didn't even know she was popular enough for the Lester family to know about her existence and how outstanding she was as adoctor.

Just as they were talking, the door opened.

A maid stood by the door and greeted respectfully, ”Mr.

Levi.” “This is Kathleen Johnson.

I’ve invited her over to treat Old Mrs.

Lester,” Levi briefly introduced Kathleen to the maid.

The maid replied, “This way please, Ms.

Johnson.” Kathleen nodded, and the two of them stepped into the residence after the maid.

The structure of the Lester residence was spacious with good lighting, and the furbishing looked like a combination of different countries’ cultures.

Levi whispered next to Kathleen's ear, “The Lester family is quite complicated.

Old Mrs.

Lester had four children, but one of them passed away almost as soon as they were born.

The remaining three were all married to foreigners.

This villa was built by them as a gift for Old Mrs.

Lester’s eightieth birthday.

That's why the villa's style is a combination of different countries.” Kathleen nodded.

Yvonne cleared her throat and reminded, “Mom, she's checking your condition.” Betty slowly put her hand down, and Kathleen breathed a sigh when she was finally relievedfrom the perplexing situation.

“Old Mrs.

Lester’s heart seems to have some issues.

I'm afraid she would have to undergo surgery soon, or it’s going to be dangerous if left unattended.” Kathleen put Betty’s hand down after checking her pulse.

“Dr.

Johnson, are you able to handle the surgery?” asked Yvonne, concerned.

“If you guys trust me, I'm willing to give it a try,” uttered Kathleen softly.

“Oh, of course, we trust you.

Why would we even invite you here if we don't? You’ve handled similar surgeries before this,right?” Yvonne smiled.

Kathleen nodded in response.

“Mom, what do you think?” Yvonne looked over at her mother, who nodded as well.

“Yvonne, I think we should discuss it with Anthony and the others when they return,” said Camille cautiously.

Kathleen thought so, too.

“Yeah, you guys should discuss first.

I'll be taking my leave.” Just as she was about to leave, Yvonne grabbed her wrist.

“Wait! Ms.

Johnson, it's quite a hassle for you to travel back and forth from Pollerton.

Moreover, my brothers are on their way back, and they would like to discuss things with you.

Why don't you stay here for the night?” “But I don’t want to cause you all trouble,” said Kathleen.

“Oh, not at all.

We have a lot of rooms here.

Also, we knew you'd be coming, so I've asked someone to clean one of the rooms for you.

Come with me.

I'll show you.” Yvonne beamed as she took Kathleen's hand and dragged her out.

Camille sighed and looked at Betty.

“Yvonne is too excited.” Betty spoke in a faint voice.

“I am, too.

I'm satisfied enough to be able to meet Kate while I’m still alive.” In consideration ofsome objective factors, she didn't show her excitement when meeting Kathleen.
