All Too Late novel Chapter 384

Chapter 384

Schemes Kathleen's face instantly flushed red as a beetroot.

“Samuel, you…” How could he speak such words so unabashedly?

“I’m not as disgusting as you think,” said Samuel ashe got out of the car. Kathleen frowned deeply. Huh? Is he leaving because he's mad at me? He didn't even bother about leaving his car behind.

But how am I going to drive? I'm wearing heels! Just as she was considering whether to call for a driver,Samuel returned. Carrying a huge bag with his long, graceful fingers, he got into the car and shut the door. Kathleen was a little taken aback. However, before she could react, Samuel retrieved a box of adhesive bandages from the bag.

Then, he took her ankle with his large, warm hands and placed it on his lap. Kathleen merely gazed at him in silence as he covered the wounds on her toes and ankle with the Band-Aids.

After that, he put her leg down and picked her other leg up. His actions were cautious and gentle, and it was clear that his intentions were pure. Kathleen's heart was racing as she watched him.

“You seldom wore high heels in the past.” Samuel's deep voice broke the silence.

“You mostly only wore flats.Besides, you never liked shoes of this brand and used to complain that their soles were stiff.”

“I’ve told you this before?” Kathleen was stunned. Samuel nodded.

“I’m surprised you still remember,” remarked Kathleen, who was genuinely astonished. “Of course, I do.I paid attention to everything you said.” Samuel lowered her leg.

“You shouldn't wear these high heels anymore later.”

“Are you suggesting that I walk barefooted, then?” Kathleenasked, feeling rather exasperated and amused at the same time.

As soon as she said that, Samuel took out a pair of dainty, white shoes from the bag.

“Here, wear this pair of shoes.It's your favorite brand.”

“Thanks.” Kathleen was shocked that Samuel actually thought of buying that as well. Hearing her word of thanks did not put Samuel in a better mood,but it did not worsen his mood either. Kathleen put on the shoes and sat quietly in her seat. As Samuel resumed driving, he began asking, “You and Ryder....”

Here we go! Kathleen knew he was definitely going to ask about that.

“Yes?” she uttered curiously.

“It's nothing.”

After a moment's thought, Samuel decided not to ask about it. Kathleen could not help but feel perplexed. However, she was somewhat relieved that he did not ask further, as she did not know how to explain it to him either.

“It looks like the weather's going to be fine tomorrow.I'm thinking of bringing Desi and Eil out for some fun.Will you be free?” asked Samuel. Kathleen immediately froze. He must be doing this on purpose!

“No,” Kathleen answered.

After a moment's hesitation, she continued, “Can't we postpone it?”

“I've already promised them,” Samuel went on in a deep tone.

“I can bring them myself if you’re busy.But of course, how should I explain to them that you’re not coming along?” Slightly dumbfounded, Kathleen responded in an embarrassed tone, “You could tell them that I'm busy.”

“Sure.” Samuel nodded and said nothing else. Soon, they arrived at the place Samuel mentioned earlier. It was indeed located in the heart of the city, and the surroundings were nice. Kathleen could not be more satisfied with it. Finally, she asked, “What place is this, Samuel? Who should I talk to about renting it?”

“This used to be the office of Macari Group.It's where my grandfather started the company,” stated Samuel in response. Kathleen was stunned to hear that.

“You may talk to my father about it, as this building is under his name,” Samuel added. Kathleen did not know what to say. So, this place is still under the ownership of the Macari family...
