All Too Late novel Chapter 473

Chapter 473 Because You Were Not There

Kathleen guided Samuel to the restaurant. Soon, they found a nice and quiet place to sit. With the menu in hand, Kathleen orderedall the food that Samuel liked while he sat next to her. There was a refreshing fragrance coming from her.

He could not help but want to get close to her because of the pleasant scent. “Kate.” Samuel inched closer to her.

“Did the Lester family only ask you to treat Old Mrs.Lester?” Picking up the pitcher beside her, she poured a glass of water for Samuel.

“That’s right.What else would they ask me to do?” Samuel pursed his thin lips.

“It’s weird.” Kathleen blinked in surprise.

“So you also feel the same way?” Samuel nodded in response.

“To be honest, it’s hard to put my finger on it.The Lester family does treat me a little strangely.” She muttered, “I just don’t understand why they treat me that way.Is it really merely because I’m treating Old Mrs.Lester’s condition?” Samuel put her hand into his.

“Do you want to know what I have discovered?” Astounded, she questioned, “Did you already look into it?”

“How could you forget? I’m great at digging up information,” he said meaningfully. “What did you find!” Kathleen was eager to know. Releasing his grip around her hand, he sipped his water.

“In any case, they aren't trying to make you marry into their family.”

Kathleen was dumbfounded. She fumed, “Of course not! Furthermore, I’dnever do that.”

“Oh? Why not?” Samuel gave her a knowing look. Kathleen raised a brow.

“What do you think?”

“How would I know?” replied Samuel indifferently. He continued to sip his water, unrelenting. Kathleen smiled wordlessly.

“It’s because you’re the best.I have to marry you.” Hearing her words, Samuel smiled. A short while later, their meal was served. Kathleen put some food onto Samuel’s plate. He used his left hand to hold the fork while Kathleen kept putting more food on his plate. Kathleen also passed a spoon to him. Her heart ached as she watched him eat with difficulty. His hand, his leg, and even his body were wounded.

Anywhere that could be hurt was hurt.

“Aren't you going to eat?” Samuel noticed her gaze was fixated on him.

“I am eating though?” Kathleen shifted her gaze away. Samuel's pencil-thin lips curved upward.

“I want to eat that, Kate.”

“Which one?” Kathleen turned to look at him. Little did she expect that Samuel would lean over and plant a kiss on her scarlet lips.

“This one.” Kathleen instantly blushed up to her ears. She stared at him, speechless.

“There are a lot of people around.” Samuel, in turn, narrowed his eyes and gazed at her.

“You're my wife.”

“I'm still your fiancée, okay? We haven't even registered our marriage yet,” Kathleen corrected. I only said that to the Lester family because I don't want them to form any misunderstandings!

“We can get registered now.” Samuel spoke in a solemn tone. Kathleen was stumped.

“As long as you are willing to.” He fixed her with a serious and unwavering stare.

“Would you be willing to do it?” Kathleen gave it a long and hard thought.

“No.” Dumbstruck, the man looked defeated. “I need to think about it more.After all, you almost married Ashley.”

She suggested, “We should take things like marriage slow.”

It was apparent that she was traumatized by the idea of marriage and weddings. I know I can't force her.

There are still some hurdles inside of her that she can’t get over.

“I understand.” Samuel nodded. Our current state isn't so bad too. Just as Kathleen and Samuel were minding their own business having their lunch, someone snapped a photo of them and posted it on the internet. Everyone couldn't believe what they were seeing. So after going around in circles, they still end up together? Ashley saw the news, too.

She almost threw her phone out of anger. How could he do this? How could he just change like that? Doesn’the know the price I have to pay because of this?
