Chapter 177 Revived
“I really forgot about that,” said Kathleen awkwardly.
“Don’t worry. I won’t let him go that easily,” Samuel said in a frigid and overbearing tone.
“I can only cheer for you, then.”
Glancing at her, he snorted.
She frowned. “What’s that gaze?”
“Felix almost became your grandpa!” he remarked bitterly.
Hearing that, Kathleen was rendered speechless.
Nonetheless, he held her hand and kept walking forward.
“How petty!” she muttered under her breath.
“Indeed, I am!”
Not wanting to argue anymore, she glimpsed at the clock on the building. “Sam, it’s almost midnight.”
They had agreed not to have anything to do with each other after the clock struck twelve. Not even family.
In the future, Samuel wouldn’t pester her anymore.
“This way!” He squeezed her hand slightly.
She followed him to a mountainside.
Looking down, they could see the entire city.
Samuel took off his mask. It was utterly chilly on the mountain in winter.
He then helped Kathleen to remove her mask too.
Next, he cupped her face with both hands.
Her petite face was flawless, so fair and delicate.
Not only that, but her large eyes were like black pearls, sparkling in the dark.
Samuel couldn’t help but touch her face with his cold fingers, his dark eyes abruptly turning scarlet.
“It’s almost time to bid farewell.” She raised her hand and gently covered the back of his.
He couldn’t utter a word.
“Sam?” Kathleen pursed her lips.
His breath became heavier as he lowered his head and captured her lips, venting all his emotions on that kiss.
Reluctance, regret, indignance.
He had never felt so emotional before and almost wanted to go back on his words.
He genuinely didn’t want to let her go, but what could he do?
Kathleen had already bid goodbye to him, and he knew they could never go back.
She said they had to look forward.
Hence, he had no choice but to respect her wishes even though she would not be in his future anymore.
He felt that his life had stopped, and he had lost all motivation.
The reason why he agreed was that he wanted to make her life easier.
That was it.
Fireworks appeared in the small city at the foot of the mountain.
Meanwhile, Samuel kissed Kathleen so passionately as though he was about to devour her.
In his tight embrace, the woman could hardly move.
By the time they broke apart when the fireworks ended, her legs had turned weak.
Samuel breathed heavily as he held the back of her head with his large hand. “I love you, Kate.”
I’ll only love you in my life. No matter where you go, I’m going to miss you.
The next day, Samuel and Kathleen left the hotel together.
Charles came to pick up Kathleen at the lobby.
“Did you sleep well last night?” Samuel asked politely as he looked at the woman, seemingly trying to restrain himself.
She blushed. “Mm.”
“Last night…” He paused. “If you feel unwell, then go to the hospital.”
Her face turned even redder at that.
How could I go to the hospital! Last night was really… I was overcome with lust!
In fact, Samuel was too good at bewitching her.
“Get in the car,” Charles piped up with a dark expression.
“Mm.” Kathleen had no choice but to nod, glancing at Samuel. ”Goodbye.”
“Goodbye.” The man retracted his gaze.
Seeing him in that state, she could guess that Samuel had completely let go of her after last night.
Good. That’s how it should be.
She quickly got into the vehicle.
After closing the door, Charles urged the driver to leave at once.
