All Too Late novel Chapter 458

Chapter 458 I Will Not Overthink

"Charles, forget about it.There won’t be anything between Samuel and me anymore."

Kathleen pulled Charles’ hand.

Furrowing his brows, Charles asked, "What do you mean?"

Kathleen gradually released her grip.

"Perhaps, we shouldn’t have gotten back together from the start."

Feeling sorry for her, Charles asked, "What did Samuel say to you?"

"Nothing.Charles, I have ways to prove my innocence, so you don’t have to worry about me,"

Kathleen assured calmly before she asked, "Didn’t Wyatt come back with you?"

Knowing that Kathleen had changed the topic, Charles knew she did not want to talk about Samuel, so he replied, "We met and talked for a bit before he left."

"What did he say?" Kathleen was curious.

"He didn’t say much but only asked me if I’m willing to side with him.But you know I don’t want to get myself involved in the matter between him and his brother."

Apparently, Charles had turned Wyatt down.

"What happened after that?"

"After that, he left without saying anything," answered Charles.

After pondering for a brief moment, Kathleen remarked, "Charles, whether Wilbur or Wyatt becomes the leader of Blissful Sect in the future, it won’t do us any good."

"You’re right.Unless we take over Blissful Sect, but that would cause more trouble."

Charles’s gaze darkened.

At that point, Kathleen and Samuel only wished to live a peaceful and stable life; a rather ordinary life.

"Charles, besides the two sons, Raymond has a daughter too," came Kathleen’s implicit remark.

Knitting his brows, Charles asked, "Are you going to help Clarissa to snatch over the role as the sect leader?"

Kathleen nodded.

"Both Wilbur and Wyatt will be threats to us, but Clarissa is different.If she becomes the sect’s leader, she won’t come to us to look for trouble."

"Is she willing to become the leader, though? When her mom sent her to Blissful Sect, she said she wished Clarissa could live a peaceful life without worries."

Charles’ frown deepened.

"We can ask for her thoughts then.Let’s not force her.If she is unwilling to do so, I’ll stop bringing this matter up," Kathleen suggested.

Charles thought about it and replied, "Okay.I’ll talk to her."

"All right." Kathleen nodded.

"I’ll go back now."

Charles then turned around and left.

Charles came out of Kathleen’s house and drove back to his own place.

As soon as he stepped into his house, Clarissa walked out of the room.

"Charles, have you found Wyatt?" Clarissa asked concernedly.

"Yes.I found him," Charles responded with a nod.

"Did he tell you when he’s going back?" Clarissa was curious.

Without much emotion showing on his face, Charles merely replied, "He doesn’t plan to go back.Also, Wilbur had married Adina, so he said he had already lost to Wilbur once.As such, he doesn’t want to lose to him again."

Clarissa was bewildered.

"Who does he want to marry? Does he think of marrying some fairies then?"

"I have no idea.But I can tell he’s growing more anxious, so I’m worried Wyatt might opt for a way that leaves him no chance to turn back."

"Charles, it’s pointless for you to worry here.The fight between Wilbur and him is inevitable, and this was why Wilbur insisted on marrying Adina even though he knew her personal life was a huge mess," Clarissa explained.

Charles said in a low voice, "If you’re given a chance to choose, who would you side with?"

Clarissa was taken aback.It was the first time Charles had asked her this question in all these years.
