Someone liked Kathleen’s post on Instagram less than half a minute after she posted it.
When she tapped on the notification, she noticed it was Samuel who liked it.
It seems like he’s very free. Wasn’t he very busy earlier?
Sitting on the couch in the living room, Samuel looked at the post that Kathleen had posted on Instagram, and a smile formed on his lips.
This little glutton. She’s so easily won over.
After pondering for some time, Kathleen decided to block Samuel on Instagram.
When Samuel launched the app to look at her pictures again, he realized her account had become inaccessible.
Samuel texted: Did you block me?
Kathleen replied: It’s my Instagram account, so it’s up to me what I want to do with it.
Samuel sent another text: Are you hiding something on your Instagram account?
Kathleen responded: They’re all pictures of me and Christopher showing off our affection for each other. Want to have a look?
Samuel was rendered speechless.
Meanwhile, Kathleen felt pleased with his delayed response.
Finally, Samuel replied: Fine! Show it to me!
Kathleen was at a loss for words, and she ignored him.
Meanwhile, she continued to indulge in the cake. When she was done with it, she had a light dinner.
In the end, she ate too much.
She rubbed her round belly. This won’t do. I have to exercise for a bit. Otherwise, it’ll be embarrassing to audition with a round belly tomorrow.
She stood up and said to Maria, “I’m going for a walk.”
Maria walked out of the kitchen and said worriedly, “Ms. Johnson, it’s not safe for you to go alone.”
“Don’t worry, Maria. The security system here is quite strict. It’ll be fine. I’ll be back soon.” With that, Kathleen put on her white jacket and walked out of the house.
Meanwhile, Samuel stood by the window, watching a white figure exiting the house.
Upon seeing that, he frowned, put on a black coat, and strode out of the house.
Meanwhile, Kathleen strolled around casually.
The residential area had a high occupancy rate, yet there were very few people around.
Perhaps the garden in the residential area was too big that there were not many people around.
Even so, Kathleen liked it there.
The scenery should be quite beautiful if I come here during the day.
After taking a few steps, she suddenly felt someone was following behind her.
She turned around abruptly and was stunned by what she saw. “Samuel?”
Why is he here?
“What are you doing here alone at night?” Samuel frowned. His expression was extremely stern.
“I ate too much, so I’m taking a walk,” Kathleen explained bewilderedly. Her brows were tightly knitted as she asked, “What are you doing here?”
“I’m taking a walk,” Samuel answered indifferently.
“Why would you take a walk in our residential area?” Kathleen did not believe him.
“Why not?” Samuel stared at her.
Kathleen scoffed inwardly and continued walking forward.
Samuel followed behind her.
As they walked, his long, slender shadow overlapped with hers.
His gaze darkened as he fell into deep thought.
After taking a few steps, Kathleen realized Samuel was still following her. She stopped and questioned, “Samuel, why are you following me?”
“I’m just going the same way.” Samuel’s handsome and elegant face still had a look of indifference. “What? Is this road yours?”
Kathleen snorted lightly. She ignored him and continued with her walk.
Right then, she recalled he had just recovered from an illness.
She stopped in her tracks again, frowning. “Were you discharged from the hospital?”
Samuel smirked. “Are you worried about me?”
“I was just asking. It’s fine if you don’t want to answer me.” Kathleen turned around and continued walking.
Seeing that, Samuel quickly walked to her side.
Kathleen merely snorted in response.
Samuel grinned. “Was the cake delicious?”
“Yes,” Kathleen replied honestly. “Oh, even a neighbor knows what I like. I don’t understand why some people aren’t the same.”
Samuel’s expression turned grim. “It’s okay. Just scold me. I’ll accept it humbly.”
Kathleen was at a loss for words.
