Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 127
Samuel asked in a breezy tone, “Does she have evidence?”
The reporter was stunned and replied embarrassingly, “In the past year, Jadeborough was filled with rumors that she has been staying at your villa.”
Even though Samuel was seated on a hospital bed, he still exuded a powerful presence. “Looks like I have to sue those who have been spreading rumors. I had nothing to do with her since a year ago. Please don’t report something that’s not true. It’ll cause me a lot of problems if the person I’m pursuing finds out.”
The reporter was shocked. “Mr. Macari, you’re pursuing someone?”
Samuel’s lips curved elegantly. “I thought everyone in Jadeborough knew? What’s wrong with you guys? You guys report something I don’t admit and make no mention of the things I’ve admitted.”
The reporter proffered an explanation. “Perhaps it’s because Mr. Macari didn’t like people to know about his personal matters in the past?”
“You’re right. It looks like I have to do some reflection.” Samuel smiled lightly before continuing, “Do you have anything else you’d like to ask?”
“So, what are Mr. Macari’s plans regarding this matter?” asked the reporter.
Samuel laughed coldly. “When a dog bites you, do you bite the dog back?”
The reporter was speechless.
“I’ll let her off this time because of our past relationship. However, if she persists in her ways, my lawyer will be getting in touch with her,” replied Samuel icily.
The reporter thought that his words felt more like a threat.
“The five minutes for the interview is up. Please leave now.” Tyson was ready to chase the reporter out.
“One last question!” The reporter was slightly excited. “Mr. Macari, is the person that you are pursuing Kathleen?”
“Yes,” Samuel answered candidly.
The reporter was bewildered. “But she has a fiancé.”
“I feel that I still stand a chance as long as she’s not married.” Samuel laughed meaningfully. “After all, I’m the one going after her.”
The reporter wanted to ask more questions.
However, Tyson interjected. “That’s enough. Do you want to lose your job?”
The reporter was stumped and had no choice but to leave.
Tyson closed the door and reported, “Mr. Macari, Ms. Johnson has left the hospital. When Charles came to fetch her, he purposely prevented her from seeing what was happening in the ward…”
“I know.” Samuel’s expression was grim. “It’s fine. She’ll find out eventually.”
“Mr. Macari, I have already obtained most of the Yoeger family’s shares that are available for purchase. Do you want me to deliver them to Ms. Johnson immediately?”
“You can send it to her. She won’t accept it. Just hold onto it first. I’ll make her accept it.” He then instructed in an icy tone, “Find out from Richard when I can be discharged from the hospital!”
“I’ve asked him already. You’ll need to stay here for two more days,” replied Tyson.
“Tell him I want to be discharged right now and get him to process it,” Samuel said sternly.
Tyson’s expression became fearful. Where did the man who said would give me a reward this morning disappear to?
Meanwhile, Kathleen followed Charles home.
“Charles, get someone to send me a phone quickly. I need one,” Kathleen urged.
“What’s the rush? If you have a need, you can use mine first,” suggested Charles.
Kathleen crossed her arms and stared at him coldly. “Charles, you’re being weird.”
“How am I weird?” Charles’ expression carried a trace of guilt.
Kathleen couldn’t help but feel that something strange was going on. “Your phone!” she demanded.
Upon seeing that Kathleen was upset, Charles had no choice but to surrender his phone to her.
Kathleen opened Twitter and took a look at what was trending.
Nicolette Yoeger suing Samuel Macari.
A lover becomes an enemy.
Nicolette’s disappearance for a year.
Nicolette appears after Kathleen comes into the picture.
Samuel Macari admits that he’s pursuing someone.
Is it still possible for Samuel Macari and Kathleen Johnson to get together?
The top ten trending tweets were mostly about the three of them.
Kathleen clicked on the first trending tweet.
Why does this feel ridiculous?
Could it be that the videos Samuel showed me yesterday are real and not fake?
“Kate, don’t think too much. Even if Samuel did this, it doesn’t mean that you have to marry him again.” Charles took the phone away.
Kathleen’s expression was calm. “Charles, don’t be so childish in the future. Get someone to send me a phone now.”
“All right. I was only afraid that the reporters would pester you,” Charles explained.
“Charles, how would the reporters know my number? You’re my manager, and you help me liaise with them on these matters. You only didn’t want me to see these or let me know the things Samuel did.” Kathleen’s small and beautiful face looked rather serious. “Charles, I don’t want to live a life controlled by others, you know?”
Charles muttered guiltily. “I’m sorry. I…”
“Charles, I won’t have a change of heart no matter what Samuel does.” Kathleen pursed her red lips. “I was the one who asked him to help me take revenge. Now that it has caused him trouble, I should at the very least ask after him.”
Charles sighed. “I was wrong. I’ll get someone to send a phone over now.”
“All right.” Kathleen nodded.
She got ready to go upstairs.
After two steps, she said, “Charles, I’ve already cut all ties with him. You don’t have to treat him this way anymore. You can just treat him like a normal person.”
“Okay.” Charles always listened to his sister.
Kathleen went upstairs to rest.
Ten minutes later, the housekeeper appeared with a phone.
“Ms. Johnson, Mr. Johnson said that he has to return to the office to handle some matters and won’t be home for dinner,” the housekeeper reported with a smile.
“Noted.” Kathleen nodded. “You don’t have to prepare too much for dinner. I don’t have a preference for strong flavors, so you can just prepare something simple.”
“All right.” The housekeeper smiled and then turned around to leave.
Kathleen picked up the new phone and inserted a SIM card.
It was a bit warm in the house. She took the phone to the balcony and gave Samuel a call.
“Are you home?” Samuel’s voice was deep and attractive, like a cello.
“Yes.” Kathleen nodded. “Will it be difficult to settle the matter with Nicolette?” she queried.
“It won’t be if you don’t give the video to her.” In an arrogant tone, Samuel added, “I’ve always handled matters impeccably.”
“Why would I give it to her?” Kathleen was bewildered.
“Perhaps one day, when you’re sick of me pestering you and spoiling your relationship with Christopher, you might wish to send me to jail to put an end to things,” Samuel said half-jokingly.
“I would never do that! Don’t accuse me.” Kathleen was livid. “I’m not that kind of person!”
Samuel smirked. “Go inside the house. It’s cold outside. You were just discharged from the hospital. Don’t end up getting admitted again.”
Kathleen was startled. How does he know that I’m on the balcony?
