Chapter 188 Not Too Late To Pursue
“There’s nothing I’m keeping from you.” Finn Morris uttered coldly, “We broke up like any normal couple.”
“How would she become like that if it was as you said?” Charles roared, “ I shouldn’t have given up on her in the first place!”
Finn replied placidly, “If you still like her, it’s not too late for you to pursue her now.”
When Charles heard that, he snorted coldly.
In a deep voice, Finn continued, “Charles, I have no other choice. You are well aware that I am an illegitimate child. I had to do it this way in order to get my share of the family fortune. Otherwise, my mother would not be able to rest in peace.”
“Don’t you feel ashamed for using a deceased person as an excuse?” Charles snapped, “I don’t care about your identity or what you’re trying to achieve. It’s none of my business, but you can’t simply hurt Vivian’s feelings for the sake of your own selfish desire.”
“Charles, you don’t know anything,” Finn responded, as if he was in a quandary.
“Of course, I don’t know,” Charles grumbled. “I’ll never trust you again, Finn!”
After a brief pause, Finn stated, “Charles, I’ll be heading to Jadeborough in a few days, and I need your assistance.”
“In your dreams!” Charles responded sarcastically and hung up the phone.
Meanwhile, Finn put his phone down.
Behind the lenses of his glasses, a cold gleam flashed across his eyes.
Is she currently in Jadeborough? That’s great news. I’m finally able to see her again.
Kathleen was about to leave for the Yoeger residence when midnight rolled around.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard a noise behind the door.
She quickly hid herself once more beneath her cover.
Then, there was a knock on the door.
“Ms. Johnson, I’m Mr. Macari’s subordinate. He told me to bring you something,” the man outside explained.
Samuel?
“Come in,” Kathleen replied.
When the man walked in, he was holding a box.
He placed the box in front of her. “This is what Mr. Macari asked me to deliver to you, Ms. Johnson. Mr. Macari will call you later and give you further instructions on how to use it and what to use it for.”
When Kathleen heard that, she was rendered speechless.
What is Samuel trying to do? Why does he have to act in such a mysterious manner?
“All right. I understand,” she said coldly.
After he heard that, he nodded and turned around to leave.
Kathleen frowned as she checked the box. What a pleasant surprise. Samuel actually has manners.
Just then, Samuel video called her, and she accepted it, showing a sour face to him.
Upon seeing that, Samuel narrowed his eyes. “You’re not supposed to sleep tonight. Why do you look as if I’m bothering you?”
“How do you know I won’t be sleeping tonight?” Kathleen inquired.
“My intuition,” Samuel replied.
Bullsh*t intuition!
“Can you tell me what you sent to me?” Kathleen was curious.
“It’s a miniature camera. After successfully placing it in Old Mrs. Yoeger’s room, you must connect it to your phone. You can try monitoring it once you’ve connected.” Samuel explained further, “With it, there’s no need for you to keep worrying about her safety until I return.”
She had no idea he would prepare something like that for her.
“How am I supposed to hide it?” Kathleen frowned “That’s the Yoeger residence, and I don’t live there.”
She was unfamiliar with that place, and it would be inconvenient if she was discovered.
Samuel replied indifferently, “Once you reach Old Mrs. Yoeger’s room, you’ll notice that her room’s interior design is classic-style. A cabinet with a lot of stuff on it is on the wall opposite her bed. You’re going to hide the miniature camera in a high place where no one can find it. I’ll send someone to retrieve it a few days later after Old Mrs. Yoeger is brought out.”
Kathleen was speechless, not knowing what to say.
“When are you going to return?” she asked casually.
“Did you miss me?” Samuel cracked a grin.
Hearing that, she frowned. “Aren’t you my brother?”
