Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 374

Chapter 374 Your Last Name Is Not Yoeger Kathleen told Charles not to follow her. They would needsomeone to take care of things at the funeral, too, as they could not possibly pass all the chores to Wynnie and Calvin. In a low voice, Samuel offered, “I'll go with you.” A hesitant look appeared on Kathleen's delicate face. Samuel tugged at her and headed out, not leaving a chance for her to turn him down. After getting into the car, Samuel tried his best to hide the menacing look in his eyes.

“I'm not trying to force you or anything. However, if you’re clearly aware that the Hoover family is coming after you, don’t stop mefrom helping you.” Kathleen pursed her red lips. “Okay.” Samuel turned around and stated directly, “Kathleen, I can put up with everything you do, but if you choose to put yourself at risk, I'll need to stay by your side. I don't want Eil and Desi to resent me their whole life for failing to protect you.” Initially, Kathleen wanted to retort, but she held her tongue upon hearing those serious words from him. There was nothing else Kathleen could say when it came to the matters related to their children. Seeing that she did not refute, Samuel finally felt the tension in his body subside a little. “Can we leave now?” Kathleen asked cautiously. The next instant, Samuel started the engine. Kathleen let out a sigh without saying a word. How terrifying! Samuel looks the scariest when he is furious. Soon, they arrived at Kathleen's house. In fact, Samuel had arranged for some of his subordinates to guard Kathleen's house too. They did not get to inform Samuel in time, not because they were not carrying out their duties, but because all of them had been knocked out. One of them even died after suffering severe injury. Those people were going too far. At the same time, Samuel had sent another group of people over. When Kathleen and Samuel went in, there was someone examining Amelia and the others. “Amelia, are you okay?” Kathleen hurried over. Amelia shook her head. “I'm fine.” Knitting her brows, Kathleen asked worriedly, “What exactly happened?” “A group of people broke in and knocked us out. Just when I was still in a daze, I saw them taking Zion away. I wanted to call you, but I didn't have the strength to do so. So, I immediately contacted you as soon as I regained my consciousness,” Amelia explained. Kathleen merely replied with a nod. Then, she turned around and headed to Zion's room. The room doesn't look messy, so they weren't searching for anything. I guess they took Zion away directly. Just then, Samuel's phone rang. He said in a deep voice, “Okay. I got it.” As soon as he finished his words, he ended the call. After that, he walked toward Kathleen and said, “My men found Dorothy's car. She has gone to Quilton.” “Did she drive there?” Kathleen furrowed her brows. Samuel nodded in response. “It might not be true. She knows we will definitely save Zion, so she purposely exposed her trail and allowed us to discover her car. But the people in the car might not be her and Zion,” Kathleen reasoned composedly. Seemingly unconcerned, Samuel replied flatly, “Don't worry. I have enough manpower. I'll send a group of them to trail after this car, and another group of people will continue to look for her around Jadeborough.” After mulling over his plan, Kathleen asked, “Are there any places in Jadeborough that we've possibly neglected?” “It must be a place where the people know about your relationship with the Hoover family, yet it's a place that we couldn't think of,” analyzed Samuel. A sharp glint flashed across Kathleen's eyes. “Let's go to the Yoeger residence!” At the same time, Samuel thought of the Yoeger residence, too. Dorothy must be waiting for the storm to be over. Then, she could secretly take Zion away without them noticing. During this period, the place she was going to hide with Zion would become a concern. Since Samuel's men had been searching for them, Dorothy definitely would not bring Zion to hotels or other places. There could only be someone in Jadeborough who could help to hide their trails. Most importantly, those people must know about their relationship with the Hoover family. Samuel and Kathleen could only think of the Yoeger family after mulling everything over. Vanessa definitely knew about this. So, it's impossible that Zachary and Yareli have no idea about it. Kathleen fell into deep thought, and the Yoeger family crossed her mind. Of course, Samuel had the same assumption in mind too. Without any delay, they drove to the Yoeger residence. The lights were on in the Yoeger residence. Kathleen got out of the car and rang the doorbell. No one came to open the door for her even after a long time. Kathleen let out a sarcastic chuckle. They're making things even more obvious now. As she was thinking about how to open the door, Samuel came over. “I'll do it.” He pulled Kathleen away and shot right at the electronic lock. The lock was damaged in an instant, and the door opened. Kathleen was a little guilty. What a violent man! Samuel darted into the house and searched every room. Just then, Yareli walked out of her room and stared at Kathleen and Samuel apathetically. “Kathleen, what are you doing?” “Is there any issues with me coming back to my own house?” Kathleen refuted. “Your house? Mind that your last name is not Yoeger!” Yareli fumed. “It's true that I'm not a Yoeger, but this house is mine.” Kathleen flashed her a half-smile. “What did you say?” Yareli frowned. Kathleen explained calmly, “Granny made a will. Since she passed away, this house now belongs to me. You're staying at my place, yet you didn't open the door when I rang the doorbell. I had no choice but to break in. Is there anything to do with you when I break my own house door?” Enraged, Yareli gritted her teeth. “You're just making things up!” Kathleen scoffed, “Even if I don't, I'm already in.” Yareli's face grew sullen. Obviously, she is no longer the old Kathleen from the past. Kathleen ascended the stairs as she called out, “Aren't you moving out of my way?” “Kathleen, you'd better not go too far!” Yareli was burning in fury. With her eyes full of disdain, Kathleen looked into Yareli's eyes intently. Yareli felt uneasy under Kathleen's intimidating gaze. She looked away and said, “Kathleen Johnson, if you try to break in forcefully, I'll call the police!” Looking unfazed, Kathleen chuckled. “Call the police, then.” The next second, she pushed Yareli away. Yareli lost her balance and fell. At that moment, Samuel was following behind Kathleen. Yareli grabbed his arm and complained pitifully, “Samuel, look at what she's doing.” Samuel retracted his arm from her grasp and replied coldly, “What's wrong with what she's doing?” His reply left Yareli in a daze. Kathleen searched room by room and eventually found Dorothy. However, there was only Dorothy in the room. “Ms. Johnson, aren't you sleeping at such a late hour?” A hint of panic appeared on Dorothy's face. “There's a guest here. Naturally, I should come over and greet her,” answered Kathleen. “Haha... I heard what you said just now. So this is your home,” Dorothy replied nonchalantly. “Yes.” Kathleen walked over casually and opened the closet. A dash of concern flashed across Dorothy's eyes. Samuel turned sideways and said to his subordinates, “Search around the second floor. Do not miss a single corner in every room.” “Yes!” Dorothy was all worked up as she voiced, “Ms. Johnson, since you don't welcome me here, I'll leave then.” Immediately after saying that, she grabbed her bag and was about to leave. Kathleen pulled her bag and put on a cold grin. “This is not how I treat my guest. Since you're already here, just stay comfortably.” Upon hearing that, Dorothy questioned implicitly, “Ms. Johnson, what are you trying to do now, though?”
