Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 199

Chapter 199 

Kathleen kept her mouth shut and didn’t want to say anything anymore. 

She walked out of the cemetery with heavy steps. 

Then, she got in the car, leaned against the seat, and closed her eyes. 

Honestly, she felt conflicted about her feelings for Samuel after what everyone had said. 

She wasn’t sure what she should think about her feelings for Samuel. 

Complicated thoughts flitted through her mind, especially when she saw Samuel put tombstones for the two children. 

But, what of it? Does it mean everything he did could be wiped off the slate clean? They said Samuel would die. Nicolette almost sent me to the morgue. In the end, Samuel lied to me when he hid Nicolette away. Sometimes I wonder. Does Samuel even love me at all? I don’t think I’ll ever forgive him. 

Thinking of this, she was furious. She couldn’t calm herself. 

Not only was she not able to forgive herself, but she also couldn’t forgive Samuel. 

Kathleen took in a deep breath. 

Forget it. All in all, we aren’t destined to be together. 

Suddenly, her phone rang, snapping Kathleen out of her daze. 

“Hello?” Kathleen answered after putting on her Bluetooth earphones. 

“Are you free tonight? Care to accompany me to a banquet?” Caleb asked as he sat in his office. 

“No, I don’t want to go, Kathleen refused before continuing, “I need to look at Vivian later.” 

“It’s okay. I can wait. After all, I had already told everyone you’d come,” Caleb replied, his eyes narrowing. 

“You…” Kathleen didn’t know how to respond. 

“I’ll prepare your evening dress,” Caleb said and hung up, smirking. 

Kathleen sighed. 

It can’t be helped. I’ll take a look together with him then. 

In the afternoon, Kathleen arrived at the Lewis residence, 

Caleb wasn’t in. Although he wasn’t there, the evening dress Caleb prepared for her had already been sent to his house. 

It was a purple tube top dress, and its length was only up to one’s ankle. It was matched with a pair of similar colored high heels. 

With one glance, Kathleen stayed quiet. 

She had to adinit that Caleb had done his research on her. 

Her favorite color was purple 

I wonder where he got his intel from? 

Then, she went upstairs to check on Vivian. 

Vivian was still tied to the bed. 

Her gaze were empty as she looked at Kathleen. 

Kathleen looked at her solemnly. Then, she walked over and asked, “Do you remember me?” 

Vivian frowned. She nodded at first but shook her head after that. 

“Kathleen.” Kathleen sat on the side of the bed and repeated, “I’m Kathleen.” 

“Kathleen…“ Vivian parroted her words, yet she sounded uncertain. 

Looking at the pitiful woman in front of her, Kathleen stretched her arms out and hugged Vivian. 

Instantly, Vivian shuddered and tried to push Kathleen away. “Don’t touch me! I’m dirty! Don’t touch me!” 

“You’re not dirty.” Kathleen hugged her even tighter. “You’re not dirty. Really: 

“No! He said I’m dirty! He even said he doesn’t know who fathered the child i’m pregnant with, and I’m dirty, so the child must be a little mongrel,” Vivian sobbed. 

Kathleen’s heart ached at her explanation. “That’s because he doesn’t understand you. You only have to disregard him. Moreover, he’s the only one that thinks that. Everyone else doesn’t.” 

“I can ignore what everyone else said, but why did he have to say that to me?” Vivian cried in despair. “I love him so much, but he… Ah!” 

Vivian fell into Insanity yet again. “Don’t touch me! I’m dirty! I’m really dirty!” 

However, Kathleen didn’t release her hold. 

“Vivian, snap out of it! Why do you care what that man said to you? What’s Important is you yourself!” Kathleen comforted her. “You aren’t dirty. Just ignore what he said.” 

Vivian cried even louder. 

But fortunately, she stopped struggling. 

Kathleen hugged her in her embrace, patting her back gently. “It’s okay. Everything will be okay.” 

Eventually, Vivian fell asleep in Kathleen’s arms. 

Then, Kathleen put her down gently on the bed before injecting her with medication. 

“Is this the mind and body two-pronged treatment?” Caleb queried, his arms folded as he leaned against the doorframe. 

Kathleen didn’t look up “Mind you, and this is your sister you’re talking about.” 

“Oh, she’ll be our sister, don’t worry.” Caleb narrowed his eyes. 

Kathleell was speechless 

“Do you like the dress?” Caleb asked. 

Kathleen nodded. “Yes, I love the color.” 

The corners of Caleb’s lips curled upward. “I was right to watch and study every one of your interviews.” 

Kathleen was surprised. “You watched all of my interviews?” 

“Yes, not only that. I’ve dug up all your photos online and studied all of those too.” Caleb massaged his temples. “I’m so dimn tired. I didn’t get a wink last night. Moreover, I have to wake up early and earn money for you.” 

“Hah!” Kathleen scoffed. “Why do you need to earn money for me?” 

“So when we get married, I can give everything I have to you.” Caleb arched an eyebrow. 

Kathleen was stunned into silence yet again. 

Caleb stared intently at her. “Do you want to grab a bite before going?” 

He looked like he was afraid of starving Kathleen of food. 

Kathleen stared at him solemnly. “Caleb, I don’t recall agreeing to date you. Aren’t you too much?” 

“No, this is what I call planning for a rainy day.” Caleb shrugged. “It’ll be too late to look for solutions if things come to a head.” 

Kathleen looked at him helplessly. “I don’t think you need to do so much for me. What if I say I don’t want to date you?” 

“Then, I’ll do my utmost best to stop you from saying that.” Caleb stared seriously at Kathleen. 

The more he talked to Kathleen, the more he thought she was interesting. 

Although that girl looked gentle and meek on the outside, she was actually someone who was resolute and had an attitude. 

Sometimes, Caleb wondered If Samuel regretted losing such a fine girl like Kathleen. 

Kathleen avoided Caleb’s stare. 

It suddenly occurred to her that Caleb was different from the others. 

Even though Caleb was cold to others, he was a straightforward person. 

He wasn’t like Christopher, who was secretive and calculative 

On the contrary, Caleb was frank with his thoughts 

He was like an open book because one could see straight into his heart 

In lact. getting along with these kinds of people was much easier than a secretive one.
