All Too Late novel Chapter 200

Chapter 199 I Am Dirty

Kathleen kept her mouth shut and didn’t want to say anything anymore.

She walked out of the cemetery with heavy steps.

Then, she got in the car, leaned against the seat, and closed her eyes.

Honestly, she felt conflicted about her feelings for Samuel after what everyone had said.

She wasn’t sure what she should think about her feelings for Samuel.

Complicated thoughts flitted through her mind, especially when she saw Samuel put tombstones for the two children.

But, what of it? Does it mean everything he did could be wiped off the slate clean? They said Samuel would die. Nicolette almost sent me to the morgue. In the end, Samuel lied to me when he hid Nicolette away. Sometimes I wonder. Does Samuel even love me at all? I don’t think I’ll ever forgive him.

Thinking of this, she was furious. She couldn’t calm herself.

Not only was she not able to forgive herself, but she also couldn’t forgive Samuel.

Kathleen took in a deep breath.

Forget it. All in all, we aren’t destined to be together.

Suddenly, her phone rang, snapping Kathleen out of her daze.

“Hello?” Kathleen answered after putting on her Bluetooth earphones.

“Are you free tonight? Care to accompany me to a banquet?” Caleb asked as he sat in his office.

“No, I don’t want to go,” Kathleen refused before continuing, “I need to look at Vivian later.”

“It’s okay. I can wait. After all, I had already told everyone you’d come,” Caleb replied, his eyes narrowing.

“You…” Kathleen didn’t know how to respond.

“I’ll prepare your evening dress,” Caleb said and hung up, smirking.

Kathleen sighed.

It can’t be helped. I’ll take a look together with him then.

In the afternoon, Kathleen arrived at the Lewis residence.

Caleb wasn’t in. Although he wasn’t there, the evening dress Caleb prepared for her had already been sent to his house.

It was a purple tube top dress, and its length was only up to one’s ankle. It was matched with a pair of similar colored high heels.

With one glance, Kathleen stayed quiet.

She had to admit that Caleb had done his research on her.

Her favorite color was purple.

I wonder where he got his intel from?

Then, she went upstairs to check on Vivian.

Vivian was still tied to the bed.

Her gaze were empty as she looked at Kathleen.

Kathleen looked at her solemnly. Then, she walked over and asked, “Do you remember me?”

Vivian frowned. She nodded at first but shook her head after that.

“Kathleen.” Kathleen sat on the side of the bed and repeated, “I’m Kathleen.”

“Kathleen…” Vivian parroted her words, yet she sounded uncertain.

Looking at the pitiful woman in front of her, Kathleen stretched her arms out and hugged Vivian.

Instantly, Vivian shuddered and tried to push Kathleen away. “Don’t touch me! I’m dirty! Don’t touch me!”

“You’re not dirty.” Kathleen hugged her even tighter. “You’re not dirty. Really.”

“No! He said I’m dirty! He even said he doesn’t know who fathered the child I’m pregnant with, and I’m dirty, so the child must be a little mongrel,” Vivian sobbed.

Kathleen’s heart ached at her explanation. “That’s because he doesn’t understand you. You only have to disregard him. Moreover, he’s the only one that thinks that. Everyone else doesn’t.”

“I can ignore what everyone else said, but why did he have to say that to me?” Vivian cried in despair. “I love him so much, but he… Ah!”

Vivian fell into insanity yet again. “Don’t touch me! I’m dirty! I’m really dirty!”

However, Kathleen didn’t release her hold.

“Vivian, snap out of it! Why do you care what that man said to you? What’s important is you yourself!” Kathleen comforted her. “You aren’t dirty. Just ignore what he said.”

Vivian cried even louder.

But fortunately, she stopped struggling.

Kathleen hugged her in her embrace, patting her back gently. “It’s okay. Everything will be okay.”

Eventually, Vivian fell asleep in Kathleen’s arms.

Then, Kathleen put her down gently on the bed before injecting her with medication.

“Is this the mind and body two-pronged treatment?” Caleb queried, his arms folded as he leaned against the doorframe.

Kathleen didn’t look up. “Mind you, and this is your sister you’re talking about.”
