Chapter 216 Compassionate Release
A complex luster glinted in Samuel’s dark eyes. “Because I wanted to have more reasons and excuses to see you.”
Kathleen was rendered speechless.
The man looked at her pretty and delicate face. “But now I’ve changed my mind. You hate me so much and don’t want to see me, so I don’t think I have a need to hide that from you any longer.”
“I don’t hate you.” Kathleen pouted.
Samuel stared attentively at her. “Then what do you feel about me?”
“I don’t feel anything about you.” She turned her head away and snorted.
“I see,” he said with a chuckle, which surprised her.
Usually, he would tell her something along the lines of how he still loved her and couldn’t forget about her.
However, his reaction was so unexpectedly plain and insipid.
“I can tell that you’re quite happy to know that Ms. Schott doesn’t have a granddaughter.” Samuel brought that up on purpose despite knowing Kathleen wouldn’t want to talk about it.
“What are you talking about? I’m not happy.” Kathleen refused to admit it.
He curled his lips. “If you say so.”
She ignored him and rolled her eyes.
How presumptuous!
He slightly lowered his head and said, “Oh, by the way, the down jacket is indeed comfy.”
She didn’t say anything, and her silence put a faint smile on his face.
Soon after, Yasmine came down the stairs from the second floor, and the trio headed toward the Yoeger residence.
Upon reaching the place, they sensed a stagnant atmosphere.
Yasmine was immediately angered when she saw that they hadn’t sent Frances to the hospital yet.
“Samuel, where are your subordinates?” asked Yasmine with a deep, displeased voice.
“They’re outside.”
“Have them come in here and send Old Mrs. Yoeger to the hospital,” ordered Yasmine.
“All right.” He took his phone out and summoned his men, who had been standing guard outside.
After receiving the call from Samuel, they stepped in right away to carry out the order.
“Aunt Yasmine?” Zachary stepped out of the room, shocked to see Yasmine.
The latter sneered. “Oh, so you’re around? I thought everyone in this house was dead.”
The man felt awkward. “Aunt Yasmine, when did you get here?”
“I’ve been here for a while. Didn’t Vanessa tell you? She had just left my place,” questioned Yasmine with an icy tone.
Zachary pursed his lips, looking at Samuel and Kathleen.
Samuel whispered a few orders to Tyson, and the latter immediately sent someone to Frances’ room.
A few of Samuel’s men carried the old woman out of the room and put her in the car, sending her to the hospital.
At the same time, Tyson took the camera that Kathleen installed a few days ago when no one was paying attention.
The footage saved inside would act as evidence.
“Aunt Yasmine, where are they bringing my mom?” Zachary was concerned.
“The hospital, of course! Look at the state she’s in! Why didn’t you guys send her to the hospital?” Yasmine responded unhappily.
