All Too Late novel Chapter 498

Chapter 498 You And Samuel

Charles tightened his hold on Clarissa.She was as pale as a sheet; not even the slightest tinge of color was on her face.Her condition was getting worse with each passing second.

Kathleen had been keeping an eye on Clarissa’s condition.She was aware that Clarissa was on the verge of death.

Charles gritted his teeth as he turned to the help.

"Get me the ring!"

As a result of being startled by Charles’ furious expression, the help’s faces contorted with fear.

Without wasting any time, they brought the rings to Charles.

Charles threw one of his arms around Clarissa and drew her close to his chest.

Taking the rings from the platter, he slipped one on Clarissa and one on himself.

"Is this enough?" Charles shot Raymond a cold glare.

Raymond was beaming with delight.

"Congratulations to the pair!"

Immediately, Charles carried Clarissa and dashed toward the exit.

Kathleen was about to follow them.However, Raymond intervened and stopped her.

"Ms.Johnson must stay." Charles scowled.

He turned around, glaring at Raymond.

"What? Are you trying to threaten me now?"

"How would I dare?" Raymond refuted.

A half-smile appeared on his face as he continued, "But do you think I’ll let you go that easily after you chose to appear here, Ms.Johnson?"

Kathleen wore an icy expression.She turned to Charles, saying, "Bring Clarissa to the hospital first, Charles."

"What about you?" Charles frowned.

"I’ll be fine," Kathleen reassured.

Then in a low voice, she continued, "On top of that, Samuel won’t let anything happen to me."

Charles pursed his lips.

"I’ll be back really soon!"

"Hurry on," Kathleen urged.

Clarissa did not have the leisure to wait any longer.

Charles clenched his jaw and left, holding Clarissa in his arms.

Other than the guests of the banquet, Kathleen was ultimately alone, looking rather helpless.

Raymond sneered.

"How are things between you and Samuel, Ms.Johnson?"

"We’re still going strong.There’s no need for you to be concerned," Kathleen replied coldly.

"Spit out anything you have to say.I’m afraid you won’t have the chance to do so next time." Raymond scoffed.

"You should be aware that Wyatt has had his eyes on you for some time."

"Is that so?" Kathleen asked disinterestedly.

"Then why did he get engaged to Ashley? It’s unfortunate that Ashley turned out to be a fraud, though.How is he coping after having his fantasies crushed?"

"Wyatt would still be living his dreams if it weren’t for you," Raymond exclaimed as he gave Kathleen a long look.

"Don’t you think you should bear the responsibilities?" Kathleen sneered.

"I don’t understand your logic, Raymond.Was I the one who set Ashley up to be a fraud? It was clearly your party’s fault.How could you blame me for it?"

"You were the one who didn’t want to take up responsibility.Don’t blame me for being harsh," said Raymond, his expression stony.

"I’ll still have to find a way to get back at you for what you’ve done to Adina back in Jadeborough."

"Sure thing.Do whatever you want."

Kathleen had her arms crossed in front of her chest.

"I’ve been working for you for a while.Do you want me to reveal all you’ve done?" Raymond scoffed.

As if I’d give her the chance to do so!

"Capture her!" Raymond ordered.

"Kathleen and Wyatt will marry in three days. When that time comes, I hope everyone will be able to attend."

Before he finished his sentence, four bodyguards in black immediately surrounded Kathleen.

Kathleen’s eyes were cold as ice.

"Take another step closer to me.I dare you."

The four bodyguards immediately stopped in their tracks.

Kathleen sent a taunting glare in Raymond’s direction.

"Have you forgotten? I’ve trained everyone here.You can ask them how I deal with those who disobey my commands." Raymond was infuriated.

"What are you guys doing? Get her!"

Yet, the bodyguards remained rooted in their spots.Then Wilbur emerged, accompanied by a group of people.

"I’ll do it." Kathleen narrowed her eyes at him.
