Chapter 180 Do Not Trust Samuel
Nicolette was dumbstruck.
“Why did she have to make herself soaked?” Samuel stared at Nicolette, putting her in a tight spot.
Nicolette could barely handle the situation, as she did not know how to react to it when Samuel went against her.
After all, it was too easy for Samuel to deal with her if he wished to do that.
With a disdainful look, he asked, “Don’t you have anything to say now? Weren’t you spouting a mouthful of nonsense just now?”
“Haha!” Nicolette looked at him in despair and said, “We were in love, Samuel. How can you—”
“No, I never did. I was only reciprocating your kindness,” responded Samuel haughtily.
Nicolette’s face turned ashen. She was so shocked that her body was trembling in disbelief.
Reciprocating my kindness? He is so cruel!
Staring into his dark eyes, she yelled, “How can you do this to me? All you want is to pursue Kathleen!”
Samuel responded calmly, “No, I’m not. I’ve decided to give up on that. She will be my sister from now on. I’m only protecting her. Is it wrong?”
His words stumped her once again.
Kathleen flushed upon hearing his words.
She was supposed to feel peaceful to hear his words.
However, for some reason, she was conflicted. Instead, a gloomy feeling descended upon her.
Seeing how the tables had turned, Vanessa chimed in coldly, “Old Mrs. Macari, your family has gone overboard! You’re all bullying her!”
“Why didn’t you utter a word when Nicolette was bullying Kathleen?” Displeased, Diana continued, “Why? Are you anxious because we’ve finally revealed her true colors? Are you scared that it might bring shame to your family?”
Vanessa was rooted to the spot upon hearing Diana’s words.
“I need to ask you something, Nicolette.” Kathleen took a step forward. “Why did you choose the hospital where my parents used to work instead of other hospitals that treat leukemia? Also, why did you choose the hospital that has my bone marrow tissue type on record?”
Nicolette remained silent.
“Did you already know about something beforehand?” Kathleen added, glaring at Nicolette.
Nicolette did not dare to look at Kathleen’s eyes. “I don’t know what you’re trying to say.”
Kathleen turned to Vanessa and said, “We’ve got witnesses now. Can we now leave Nicolette’s case of intentional assault to the court?”
Vanessa bit her lip and fell silent.
Kathleen shot Nicolette a cold glance. “Well, since you’ve nothing to say, I’ll see you in court then.”
Nicolette’s face turned pale as she looked at Kathleen.
“Don’t blame me for doing this. I’m only avenging my two children,” Kathleen continued coldly.
“Let’s leave now!” Vanessa wanted to take Nicolette to leave with her.
Kathleen said calmly, “Vanessa, Grandma and I will go to the Yoeger residence and visit Old Mrs. Yoeger. I think what happened between Nicolette and I should not trouble the elders in our families. Therefore, I need to explain it properly to her.”
Vanessa turned to look at Kathleen coldly before letting out a scoff and turning around to leave.
Seeing this, Kathleen did not say a word.
After the Yoeger family left, Samuel asked someone to bring Sarah and the doctor out.
Afterward, the charity auction continued.
“I have something else to attend to. I’ll leave first,” said Samuel to Diana before turning around and leaving the mansion.
Kathleen followed him.
“Samuel,” she called out his name.
He turned around. “Call me Sam.”
She was at a loss for words.
“What’s the matter?” He smiled faintly.
