All Too Late novel Chapter 98

Another turmoil broke out.

John disputed, saying, “We all knew you were hurt, so we asked the production team to come to get you. We also heard that the production team had sent you to the hospital for an examination. What else do you want us to do?”

Kylie’s tears streamed down her cheeks. “How could you be so mean? You’re all bullies!”

“What? You’re accusing us of bullying you? Could you please stop your nonsense?” John scoffed. “Who was it that was attempting to frame Kathleen earlier? We’re already being considerate to you by not exposing you right away.”

“You!” Kylie gritted her teeth in frustration.

“After we instructed you to purchase items for us, we were unable to contact you for two hours before you finally answered the phone. And guess what? Not only did you not buy anything, but you also injured yourself.” Then, he continued indifferently, “What have you been doing in those two hours?”

“It’s just that I can’t locate the location. What’s wrong with that?” Kylie yelled angrily.

When John heard that, he replied coldly, “Ha! Please! Someone on Twitter posted that you were casually hiding in a dessert shop and enjoying your dessert until you finally decided to buy the ingredients. It was around that time that you were hit by a bicycle and had your ankle twisted.”

Kylie’s cheeks and ears flushed red in an instant.

She had no idea how John had found out about it.

Initially, she believed that nobody would be aware of it as long as there was no drone following her.

Then, sarcastically, John asked, “Do you really think no one would recognize you as long as you have a hat and mask on? You were still recognized in the end.”

Surprised by John’s words, Steve frowned and looked at Kylie. “Is that true?”

“I…” She was at a loss for words.

“Kylie, this is a show, not a drama in which you have to compete to be cast. Could you please refrain from employing such deceptive tactics?” Dissatisfied, John added, “Do you even realize how worried everyone was today?”

Nancy was taken aback as she stared at John.

After all, she had not anticipated John speaking up for Kathleen.

John defended Kathleen because he was impressed by her culinary skills that day in the kitchen.

In the past, he had some prejudice against Kathleen.

He assumed she was a troublemaker because she was the wife of a wealthy family.

However, after they got along for a while, he realized that in addition to being good-tempered, competent, calm, and collected, she also made everyone feel secure.

In reality, John had no ulterior motive. He simply admired her.

He felt compelled to defend Kathleen because he thought Kylie was being too pretentious.

“How dare you!” The more Kylie heard, the more enraged she became, to the point where she no longer pretended to cry.

“You taught him all this, didn’t you?” she asked, her gaze fixing on Kathleen.

Kathleen, who was drinking water at the time, replied coldly and directly, “Kylie, I don’t need other people’s help to deal with you.”

“Kylie, you were already in the wrong, and you’re saying they’re being instructed just because they pointed out your wrongdoing? How talented you are at distorting the truth. So you’re saying that even if you’re wrong, everyone has to stand up for you?” John made a mocking remark.

Kylie responded by staring at him.

“Forget about it. Everyone in this room can reason logically. Do you honestly believe that everyone is the same as you?” John chimed furiously.

Kylie gritted her teeth and retorted, “You all are just ganging up on me!”

Nevertheless, no one paid attention to her.

When she noticed that, she turned to face Steve. “Are you in agreement with them, Steve?”

Steve stared coldly at her and responded, “It’s better if you just admit your mistake.”

With an attitude like that, netizens had already lost trust in her. To make matters worse, she could easily jeopardize her own acting career by behaving this way.

Steve was not a moron, so he did not defend her.

When she realized no one was standing up for her, she returned her gaze to Kathleen and yelled, “You’re nothing but a woman abandoned by a wealthy family. I’m sure Samuel dumped you because you’re a bad woman!”

“Hey!” Steve frowned. “Stop talking nonsense.”
