chapter 14

“Kathleen?” Samuel frowned. Why is she covered in blood? “Are you hurt?” Samuel walked to her,stretching his hands to touch her. “Get lost!” Kathleen shoved his hands away. “Don’t use the samepair of hands that touched your mistress on me!” Samuel’s face was a mix of dark emotions. “Whatdo you want, Kathleen?” Nicolette’s face turned pale. “Kathleen, I know you’re unwilling to divorceSamuel. But he has already promised to compensate you. You shouldn’t be too greedy.” Kathleenwalked over and picked up a fruit knife. “Kathleen! What are you trying to do?” Samuel walked over.“Stop there!” Kathleen clenched her jaws and lifted the knife in front of her. “Samuel, stay where youare!” Samuel paused in his actions, and his face darkened. “Put the knife down!” “You’re in nocapacity to order me around!” Kathleen’s eyes reddened. “You have no idea what I went through!”Samuel frowned again. “Benjamin is severely injured for saving me and is lying unconscious in thehospital ward.” Kathleen’s lips trembled. “The person who wanted to hurt me is sent by either you orher. But I’ve already agreed to the divorce, Samuel. Since it can’t be you, it can only be her.”“Nonsense!” Nicolette’s face was pale white. “Why would I do that?” “You know it deep down in yourheart. Samuel would be widowed once I’m dead, and you can marry him officially.” Kathleen grittedher teeth. “You don’t have any evidence! Moreover, how could you think that it’s me? It might beyour enemies!” Nicolette retorted. “Haha!” Kathleen sneered, and her eyes turned cold. “Nicolette,I’ve been living in the shelter Samuel built for me since I graduated from university. I have nocontact with anyone else. Other than his grandma and mother, I’m all alone. How can I possiblyhave enemies?” Nicolette pouted her lips. So Samuel has been so protective of her? “Even if weassume it’s Samuel’s enemies, not many know that Samuel and I are married. On the other hand,he has been visiting you openly at the hospital recently. If his enemies wanted to take revenge, theyshould be looking for you, not me.” Kathleen’s eyes remained indifferent. “Nicolette, in this wholeworld, only you would hate me to this extent and want me dead!” “N-No, it’s not me!” Nicolette wasfrightened out of her wits, and her face was bloodless. “Samuel, save me!” Samuel focused hisgaze on Kathleen. “Put the knife down.” “Samuel, let’s get divorced.” Kathleen looked at himsorrowfully. “I’ll grant both of you your wishes.” She lowered her hand gradually and threw away the

fruit knife in her hand, walking out of the room. Samuel’s eyes were full of worry while looking at her.She mentioned that Benjamin got hurt for saving her. The blood all over her must be Benjamin’s. Ifit’s hers, the consequences would be unimaginable. Samuel ran after her. “Kathleen!” He stretchedhis hand to grab Kathleen’s wrist. However, he did not expect Kathleen to faint the moment hetouched her. “Kathleen!” Samuel immediately carried her in his arms and dashed into the doctor’soffice. By the time Kathleen woke up, it was nightfall. “You’re awake.” Samuel’s voice was deep andcold. “How are you feeling?” “I’m fine.” Kathleen held onto the blanket. “The doctor said that youfainted as you were too agitated, and your emotions fluctuated too much. You’ll be fine after restinga night.” Samuel’s voice sounded detached. “You shouldn’t be here.” Kathleen pursed her lips. “If Ishouldn’t be here, where should I be then?” Samuel frowned. “Kathleen, I’m not as heartless as youthink. Even if I don’t love you, you’re grandma’s savior. I have the responsibility to take care of you.”Kathleen mocked at herself dolefully, “So you only treated me as Grandma’s savior.” He has neverlooked at me as his wife. “Why didn’t you come to the City Hall today?” Kathleen’s voice trembled. “Ialready agreed to the divorce.” “Let’s talk about this some other time.” Samuel was seeminglyavoiding the question. “You’re still hoping that I can donate my marrow to Nicolette, aren’t you?”Kathleen asked callously. Samuel did not respond. “I will not donate.” She would rather be deadthan agree to it. Nicolette must have sent the killer. She wants me dead. My baby and I would bedead now if it wasn’t for Benjamin. How could I donate my bone marrow to her? She wasdetermined to keep to her decision. “If we do not get divorced, will you donate to her?” Samuelasked suddenly. “No, we will definitely be divorced.” Kathleen closed her eyes. “I don’t want tocontinue living with you. Even if we continue our marriage, your heart’s with another woman. Whywould I want a marriage that’s only in name?” Kathleen was clear-minded and understood thatwhen love was gone, it was gone for good. There was no use no matter how she tried salvaging it.Samuel said coldly, “Kathleen, you’d better take your time to consider this carefully.” “What’s thematter? Do you think that I’ll compromise just like this?” Kathleen sneered sarcastically. “You’re asfearsome as the rumors say, Mr. Macari.” “Kathleen!” Samuel clenched his jaws. “I’ve said it! Wecan continue to be married. I just need you to donate your marrow to Nicolette.” “Samuel, aren’t you

too full of yourself? Did you think I would tolerate anything after loving you blindly for so manyyears?” Kathleen sat up straight, and her eyes were dull. “If Nicolette did not come back, I’ll donateto whoever you ask me to, but not her.” Samuel stood up. “Kathleen, I would have been togetherwith Nicolette long ago if it wasn’t for you. You stole three years of our time.” A piercing pain shotthrough Kathleen’s heart. She lifted her head with her eyes filled with tears and laughed. “Stole?Samuel, I’m speechless at your behavior. If you had resisted in the first place, you might have gottogether with her long ago. How did everything become my responsibility?” She came to arealization. In Samuel’s opinion, it was all her fault. She was the culprit for separating them. “I’vemade my stand clear that I will not donate.” Kathleen’s heart went cold. “Mr. Macari, you can trypulling your tricks on me and see what you can get out of me.” Samuel was shocked. He hadalways thought that Kathleen was soft and undemanding. In his eyes, she had no character ortemper and was always gentle and obedient. She had worshipped him like he was God, alwaysadmiring him starry-eyed regardless of what he said. He loved the admiration. However, he onlyrealized today that it was not that Kathleen did not have a character or temper. It was simplybecause she hid them well. “I don’t want to see you anymore.” Kathleen turned her head away.Samuel’s eyes darkened. “Kathleen, is that man so important to you? You even picked up a knife forhim.
