Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 375

Chapter 375 Why Did You Save Me “I'm looking for something, but I forgot in which room I placed it. Ms. Cartwright, don’t mindme.

I'll leave after I finish searching,” Kathleen explained indifferently. She had checked allthe cabinets and even the bathrooms. Yet, she found nothing. Dorothy wore an unfathomable grin as she questioned, “Have you found it?” Kathleen shook her head. Meanwhile, Samuel's men came back from searching around the house too, yet they did not manage to find anything. A cold grin flashed across Kathleen's beautiful face. “Since I couldn't find it, I'll stop searching around. I hope you wouldn't mind, Ms. Cartwright.” Dorothy stared at Kathleen for a long while. When she came and saw me just now, she didn't even mention anything about Zion. This lady is merely in her twenties, yet she could stay this composed. She's truly a prudent person. Dorothy came to a realization that she had met a strong opponent. “Let's go.” Kathleen turned to Samuel. He replied with a nod. Then, they came out of Dorothy's room. At the same time, Zachary had rushed back too. Infuriated, he asked anxiously, “What's going on? Yareli told me that this mansion has become yours.” “Granny had that written in her will. When she got married to Old Mr. Yoeger back then, he had given the house to Granny. The owner's name of this property had already been changed to Granny's a long time ago,” Kathleen explained without a tinge of emotions. “What?” Zachary was startled. “According to Granny's will, this house will be given to me.” After a brief pause, Kathleen continued, “Oh, you will get a little share of it.” Zachary frowned. “I don't trust you!” “That's up to you, then. If you think there are any issues with the will, you can always find yourself a lawyer. I'm ready to go to court.” Hearing that, Zachary knew that Kathleen must have hired a lawyer. He supposed that the lawyer she engaged was most likely Samuel's mother, Wynnie. Wynnie was an outstanding lawyer, and she had never lost in any cases. Gnashing his teeth, Zachary exclaimed, “My father shouldn't have married her back then!” “Haha! The Yoeger family was begging her to marry your father. Your family was so incapable. Besides, my granny didn't claim your things as her own. Back then, she even allowed you guys to manage the company on your own, but you guys messed it up. My granny helped the company through the crisis with her dowry and saved the Yoeger family's reputation from being tarnished. Not only that you're not grateful for her contribution, but you even made such a remark about her. How shameless!” Kathleen taunted mercilessly. “You!” Zachary was fuming. Kathleen smiled contemptuously and added, “Of course, if you like this house that much, I can sell it to you at a lower price. Even if Granny did give it to me, I don't feel like moving in. After all, a bunch of vengeful ghosts has lived here before. I'm afraid that I'll have nightmares.” Zachary felt the rage pulsing through his veins. He reached out and wanted to grab Kathleen's wrist. Samuel strode forward and stopped right before Zachary. His voice was cold as he questioned, “What are you trying to do?” Zachary felt a sense of guilt. In truth, Zachary only dared to lay his hand on Kathleen because she was a woman. Yet, Samuel was better than him in terms of strength and physique. Zachary backed down sheepishly in an instant. Kathleen reached out to pull Samuel's sleeve. “Don't care about him. Let's go.” Samuel grabbed Kathleen's hand in turn. Nodding, he left with Kathleen. When they walked past Yareli, the latter's gaze fell upon their hands that clasped tightly together. A ferocious look flitted across Yareli's eyes. Kathleen and Samuel walked out of the house. The former's face grew solemn. “Why couldn't we find him?” “She probably hid Zion somewhere else,” explained Samuel. Kathleen gave him a slight nod as she pondered over that possibility. It's possible. Perhaps, we can only get someone to keep an eye on Dorothy all day. “Let's go.” Kathleen let out a sigh. After taking a few steps forward, Samuel questioned, “That car belongs to Dorothy, right?” Kathleen stopped in her tracks and stared at the car in front of the garage. “I think so.” Samuel's gaze darkened as he pulled Kathleen over. Baffled, Kathleen blinked and asked, “What's wrong?” “Open the trunk,” Samuel instructed his subordinates. They came over, got the tools needed, and were ready to pry open it. Just then, Dorothy hastily ran out of the mansion. Kathleen's eyes darkened as realization dawned upon her. After they opened the trunk, they saw Zion lying inside. His face was a white as a sheet. Kathleen placed her hand under his nose. “He's still breathing.” Samuel instantly carried Zion out from the trunk and headed to his own car while Kathleen followed behind him. After taking a few steps, she stopped next to Dorothy. “At the end of the day, both of you are related by blood. What could you gain from using him?” Dorothy's face turned pale. A sense of aloofness shrouded Kathleen as she turned around and left. Then, Kathleen got into the car. Samuel immediately drove to the hospital. As soon as they arrived at the hospital, the doctor began the emergency treatment at once. Fortunately, the doctor managed to save Zion. Kathleen and Samuel went to visit him in the ward. At that moment, Zion was awake. Staring at Kathleen, he asked in a hoarse voice, “Why did you save me?” Kathleen looked at him impassively. “I feel sorry for you.” Zion replied dismissively, “I don't need you to pity me. I only want to die.” Kathleen grabbed his hand and took the crumpled flower in his palm. “Why?” Zion paused for a second. “Did Desi give this to you?” asked Kathleen. Zion threw it away. “I took it somewhere randomly.” “You don't actually wish to die, right? If you want to live, then stop with this attitude of yours! If not, I'll end you before Dorothy and the others make their moves!” Kathleen threatened apathetically. Zion was stunned. “As a doctor, I only want to save those who have the will to live. If you don't, I'll leave right now.” Zion remained silent. “Let's go, Samuel!” Kathleen tugged at Samuel and was about to leave. Right then, Kathleen felt someone gripping the edge of her shirt. She looked down and stared at Zion. Zion's voice sounded raspy as he confessed, “I... don't want to die, but they will never let me go. I will only bring you a lot of trouble.” “Well, trouble is the last thing I fear.” Kathleen's brows settled into a deep frown. “Kathleen, I'm not related to the Hoover family. My mom didn't get pregnant back then. She adopted me from somewhere,” Zion cried miserably. Kathleen was taken aback. “What did you say?” “I'm telling the truth. They only used me because there's something unique about my body. In order to treat that person, they fed me a lot of medicines. But I managed to survive. Actually, there were a few others who underwent the drug trials, but all of them died. I'm the only one who survived.” Kathleen could not believe what she had just heard. “Are you for real?” Zion nodded. “Yes. Please be careful, Kathleen. I heard from Grandpa that Desi's body is unique too, and the Hoover family is targeting her now. That was why I thought Desi would be safe if I went instead.”
