Chapter 2 Help Me Hide It
Samuel picked up the call from Nicolette.
There was a gentle look on his face.
Samuel was also gentle to her, but that was only because he saw her as another woman.
That was what broke Kathleen’s heart the most.
Not once had he seen her for who she was.
Instead, she was just a replacement.
Kathleen hated herself for resembling Nicolette so much sometimes.
They weren’t even related, but they looked almost identical.
“Don’t cry. I’ll come over right now,” Samuel assured tenderly. Hanging up, he turned to Kathleen and said, “I’ll get Tyson to take you to the hospital later.”
“You still don’t trust me, do you?” Kathleen grumbled in a daze.
“Yeah, I don’t,” he admitted heartlessly.
Kathleen pursed her lips, an impenetrable look in her eyes. “Okay.”
“Just hurry up and tell Grandma,” Samuel said indifferently.
“She hasn’t been feeling well lately. Are you sure you want me to tell her now?” Kathleen stared at his cold, handsome face.
“Yes. Nicolette can’t wait any longer.”
Nicolette can’t wait any longer? Does that mean he doesn’t care about Grandma’s life and death? I guess true love is enough to make him throw his whole family aside.
Kathleen knew she had lost, but she had not expected herself to lose so thoroughly.
“Fine,” she conceded with a weak nod. “But no matter how much of a rush you’re in, you have to give me at least three days.”
“Sure. I hope you won’t let me down.”
“Why would I?” There was a heart-wrenching smile on her face as she said that. “When have I ever let you down, be it in our three years of marriage, or as your wife?”
Her words caused Samuel to freeze.
It was the truth.
Having been married to him for three years, she had never disappointed him in any way.
She had done well in every aspect and carried things out flawlessly, especially in bed.
Kathleen had always given in to him and had tried to satisfy him in every way.
That was the only thing he felt reluctant to give up on.
“Good, then.” Samuel turned around and stepped into the walk-in closet to change his clothes.
Wrapped in the blanket, Kathleen was lost in thought.
Is this the end?
Even though she was upset, she knew that it wasn’t up to her.
After Samuel left, she got out of bed as well.
She went to wash up, then put on a pretty dress in preparation to go see Diana.
However, the moment she left, she bumped into Tyson Hackney.
Kathleen had her arms crossed as she looked at him with displeasure. “What?”
Tyson was confused.
Mrs. Macari is certainly an enigma. She acts like a cute, innocent little rabbit in front of Mr. Macari, but in front of me, she’s like a hostile version of Hello Kitty.
“Mr. Macari wants me to take you for a checkup,” Tyson said.
“Hmph!” Kathleen was visibly annoyed. “I can’t believe how little trust you have in me.”
Tyson didn’t know how to reply to that.
“Take me to Goodwill Hospital,” Kathleen said specifically.
It was the number one private hospital in Jadeborough that was equipped with the best medical equipment and the most qualified doctors in the country.
