All Too Late novel Chapter 29

“Samuel, I didn’t want it back then because I used to like you and thought that asking you for money would sully our relationship.” Kathleen looked at him aloofly. “However, I’ve figured everything out. No matter how well I do, it would still seem like a crime to you. So, I’ve decided it would be better to stick to negotiating with you about the benefits instead. Any talk about love and feelings is a nuisance.”

She could finally see things clearly, so her heart no longer felt in as much pain as before.

Although Samuel had become a part of her life and that it would pain her to cut him out of it, she had no choice but to do so, for he had become a festering wound within her.

If she didn’t cut him off, she would eventually die.

Samuel huffed. “A nuisance?”

“Yes. Anything unnecessary would be a nuisance,” Kathleen said coldly. “So, are you going to divorce me or not?”

“No,” Samuel answered harshly.

“No? Why so? Have you perhaps fallen for me?” mocked Kathleen.

“Don’t think too highly of yourself, Kathleen.” Samuel’s tone was frosty. “The only reason I don’t agree with the divorce is that you have yet to agree to donate your bone marrow to Nicolette.”

Kathleen looked at him expressionlessly. “I’ll never donate it. We’ll just maintain this stalemate. I’m not the one who’s in a hurry to get a divorce anyway.”

In fact, neither she nor the Macari family was in a hurry.

It was Samuel and Nicolette who needed things to speed up.

“What is your reason for not agreeing with the donation anyway?” Samuel grabbed her wrist. “You’ll get everything as soon as you agree with this! However, you just won’t! Kathleen, are you—”

Kathleen looked at him very anxiously.

Could he be suspecting that I’m pregnant?

“Are you still in love with me?” asked Samuel coldly.

Kathleen pursed her lips into a thin line.

This man sure knows how to make people feel uneasy.

“No. I just no longer like you anymore.” Kathleen held her gaze low. “Samuel, I want to divorce you, but I’ll never donate my bone marrow to her. If you don’t agree with my decision, we’ll just have to settle things in court.”

She was worn out.

All she wanted was to leave everything behind her.

“Are you planning to file a lawsuit against me? Sure. As you wish.” Samuel chuckled mirthlessly all of a sudden.

“Samuel, I don’t want things to get to that point.” Kathleen’s voice was soft but hoarse. “Besides, you should also be aware that our relationship will be made public if we choose to take matters to court.”

Our relationship will be made public?

Samuel retorted in disdain, “So be it. Let them know about it.”

With that, he entered the shower.

Kathleen took a deep breath while wearing a look of defeat.

She and Samuel were stuck in a vicious cycle.

As long as she wouldn’t donate her bone marrow, Samuel wouldn’t agree to the divorce.

While she hoped for a divorce, she didn’t want to donate her bone marrow to Nicolette because she was pregnant.

This is so tiresome.

Standing under the showerhead, Samuel was taking a hot water shower.

He had a lean and fit figure that made him look good no matter what he chose to wear.

At that moment, his mind was filled with images of Kathleen.

She was crying in some of them, while in others, she was smiling. There were also those in which she was devastated, as well as those in which she was annoying him in an aggressive manner.
