All Too Late novel Chapter 179

Chapter 178 Concerning Lives

If this had happened in the past, Samuel would not have grumbled about it.

However, he finally knew how to voice his feelings after suppressing them for a year.

It was also why Diana asked him that question.

Samuel smiled. “I’ve always been alive.”

Hearing his response, Diana said in an ironic tone, “Bah! Look at you now! You look as fine as how you were a year ago. You appeared always to be on the brink of death before this.”

“A year ago?” He replied smilingly, “It’s good that I’m like how I was a year ago. Katie was still my wife at that time.”

“Ah! Don’t bring misfortune to her!” Diana’s expression darkened.

He asked coolly, “What if I insist on pursuing her? I’ll never let her go; I’ve decided to win over her heart. I won’t let the others have the chance to go near her.”

Hearing his words, she asked worriedly, “What are you trying to do? Don’t bully Katie anymore!”

“I would like her to become my wife,” he answered casually.

Shocked, Diana stared blankly at him.

With that, Samuel walked upstairs.

When she snapped back to her senses, she rubbed her temples before calling out, “Maria?”

Maria walked over to her and asked, “What’s the matter, Old Mrs. Macari?”

“Ah! My head hurts!” Diana sighed.

Anxious, Maria responded, “Huh? Shall I get a doctor now?”

“No! Ask Katie to come here. I want to see her,” instructed Diana.

“All right.” Maria nodded in response.

The next moment, she wanted to phone Kathleen immediately.

Before she could do that, Diana blurted out, “Wait a minute! I almost burst a blood vessel listening to Samuel’s words. Hmm, it’s fine. Katie is at the filming set. Let’s not disturb her.”

“Sure.” Maria nodded.

The Macari residence was bustling with crowd and activities the next day, as Diana had invited many guests.

The most prominent guest she invited was Frances, but the latter had not arrived yet.

Kathleen arrived earlier upon receiving the invitation.

Charles came along too.

Holding Kathleen’s hand in hers, Diana introduced Kathleen to the people around her.

“She’s my granddaughter, Kathleen Johnson,” said Diana with a smile.

Upon hearing that, an awkward expression appeared on the guests’ faces.

“Well, I know what you all are thinking. Anyway, Kathleen will be my granddaughter from now on! You should take care of her when she’s in trouble,” Diana instructed.

The crowd nodded sheepishly. “Sure!”

Kathleen smiled awkwardly.

Just then, Samuel walked over, looking handsome and emanating an elegant yet cold aura.

The guests fell silent once they saw him.

Meanwhile, Kathleen blushed shyly upon seeing him.

“What are you talking about?” Samuel was polite, but there was a tinge of aloofness in his eyes.

No one dared to respond to his question.

After all, everyone did not dare to offend him.

“We’re talking about you having a sister,” said Diana meaningfully.

What? Sister?

Samuel glanced at Kathleen. “Come one, call me Sam.”

Kathleen was rendered speechless.

His words left everyone at the scene dumbfounded as well.

He raised his brows and added, “Why don’t you call me that? Are you not going to acknowledge me? I’m your brother.”

“Go on, Katie. Address him as he wish!” persuaded Diana.

Awkwardly, Kathleen called out, “Sam.”

Samuel flashed her a half-smile and teased, “Won’t Charles be vexed because you’ve got another brother now? After all, you’ve changed the way you address me.”

Kathleen furrowed her brows upon hearing his words.

Upon seeing her reaction, he smiled meaningfully at her. “Oh! It seems like you don’t want to acknowledge me as your brother, do you?”

“Sam,” Kathleen called out his name again nonchalantly.

Satisfied, he replied, “Good girl!”
