All Too Late novel Chapter 406

Chapter 406 Apprentice

Samuel's hand hung in mid-air, and all of a sudden, he felt a warm and soft hand holding his hand. At that very moment, his sorrowful heart calmed down almost immediately.

The agonizing pain faded away as well. “Samuel? Wake up.It's me.” Kathleen's voice rang out. Alas, there was no response from Samuel.

It was as if he had sunken into the darkness, allowing it to swallow him whole. Kathleen frowned as she tightened her gripon the man's hand.

“Samuel, it’s me.I’m Kathleen.Desi and I are fine.Open your eyes and take a look at us.” Desiree's tearful voice was filled with concern.

“Daddy!” The others stood aside, wearing worried expressions. Kathleen examined Samuel's condition in puzzlement.

He may have vomited some blood, but that doesn't explain why he’s unresponsive. Wynnie approached and explained,“Kate, Samuel had been like this before.He slipped into a coma and only woke up after your brother left Eil and Desi in our care.” Kathleen lookedat Samuel's pale face.

“Then what should we do now?”

Even she had no idea what to do, as she didn’t expect Samuel to be in this state. Wynnie, who was also clueless, said, “All of us staying here isn't going to help much.I’ll bring Desi home first.”

“Thanks, Mrs.Macari.I'll take good care of Samuel,” said Kathleen solemnly.

“All right.” Wynnie nodded and took Desiree’s hand.

“Desi, honey, let’s go home, okay?”

“Okay,” replied Desiree obediently.

After Wynnie left with Desiree, Kathleen looked at Samuel, who was lying unconscious, and placed her hand on his charming face. With sorrow in her tone, she said, “Why do you always torture yourself?”

Samuel's brows remained deeply furrowed.It was unknown whether he could hear her or not.

“Samuel, you have to wake up soon.Or else, I would abandon you if you stay in a coma for too long.Promise me you’ll wake up soon.You said you wanted to pursue me, right? I'm waiting for you.I don't like this at all,” she threatened.

Still, he didn't give her any reaction, but the grimace on his face slowly disappeared. Kathleen helped him pull the covers and got up to leave the ward. At that moment, there was a man and a woman standing by the ward door. The man was Yadiel Gibson, and the woman was Rory Gibson.

They were siblings whom Charles had sent to help and protect Kathleen. They were the ones who saved Kathleenand Desiree at the school earlier.

“What did you guys find?” asked Kathleen coldly.

“We found Yareli nearby.She had passed out with a detonator in her hand,” answered Yadiel.

Rory added, “Her fingerprints were the only ones found on the detonator, but she’s now unconscious.The doctor has no idea what to do either.” Kathleen frowned.

“She’s not the one who wanted to kill me.Nicolette is the one behind all this.She's merely a scapegoat that Nicolette left at the scene.”

“But, there’s no evidence that proves Nicolette was a part of this.She didn't leave any traces behind,” said Rory.

Kathleen's expression was frosty.

“Someone must be helping her.Moreover, I don't think she will carry out the plan without disguising herself.”

“All the current evidence proves that the culprit is Yareli.What should we do, Ma'am?” Yadiel questioned.

Kathleen paused for a while before saying indifferently, “You don't have to call me that.Just call me Dr.Johnson.”

“All right.” Yadiel nodded.

Kathleen arched an eyebrow.

“Case closed for now.Nicolette won't show herself if we're hot on her heels like this.We can only wait until she lets down her guard.” Yadiel and Rory exchanged glances before nodding.

“Yes, Dr.Johnson.”

“Send Samuel to Florinia Manor.Zion and Yareli, too.” Kathleen spoke in a low voice.

“Roger that.” Kathleen thought that Florinia Manor was the best place for her to conceal her whereabouts and look after Samuel at the same time. Only a few people knew that she was still alive.
