Divorce Anxiety Chapter 182Chapter 182 Someone Tinkered With It
“Charles, we can leave now,” said Kathleen nonchalantly.
So soon?
Charles looked at Caleb. “Does my sister need to come to the Lewis residence often in the future?”
“Charles.” Kathleen frowned.
Did he misunderstood something?
novelbin“Don’t worry, Mr. Johnson. From now on, we’ll make sure that there are no paparazzi within a five-
kilometer radius of the Johnson residence,” Caleb promised impassively.
“That would be the best,” replied Charles coldly. “I’ll be bringing my sister home. Please excuse us.”
“Goodbye,” Caleb replied emotionlessly.
Charles led Kathleen away while grabbing her hand.
Meanwhile, Caleb retrieved his lighter and cigarette case from his pocket and lit a cigarette for himself.
A smile tugged on his thin lips when he heard the sounds of the car starting outside.
Kathleen sure is an interesting woman.
Charles drove his car to send Kathleen back home.
Halfway through their journey, he couldn’t help but ask, “What business does Caleb have with you?”
“Stop asking me that, Charles. I can’t talk about it.” Kathleen was flustered.Her brother frowned. “Not even to me?”
“Yeah.” She nodded.
Upon hearing that, he smirked. “Is the woman upstairs named Vivian Lewis?”
Kathleen was stunned. “How do you know that, Charles?”
“What happened to her?” he inquired in a hoarse voice, his hands gripping the steering wheel.
She hesitated for a moment before answering, “Her mental state is unstable. It seems as if she had
gone through a traumatizing experience.”
The veins on the back of Charles’ hands popped out. “Can her condition be cured?”
“It’ll depend on the circumstances,” answered Kathleen.
Charles pressed his lips into a thin line. “You have to save her.”
Kathleen looked at him in curiosity. “Charles, do you know her?”
He didn’t reply to her question, but the answer was affirmative.
Kathleen furrowed her brows deeply.
Charles knew Vivian? How did they meet, and when? Could Charles have anything to do with the state
which Vivian is in?
Kathleen dared not continue down that line of thought.
From what she knew, Charles wasn’t someone like that.
Perhaps I might just have overthought this.Meanwhile, Caleb entered his study to retrieve a photo from the drawer of his desk and studied it
closely.
At that moment, a man entered the study. “Mr. Lewis, the car is ready, and the plane is already waiting
for your arrival at the airport.”
Caleb put the photo down. “Philip, look at this. Don’t you think this man looks like Charles?”
Philip Lewis walked up to him and observed the photo after taking it from Caleb. “Mr. Lewis, this photo
is all blurry. That man resembles Charles but not entirely.”
“I’ve hired a lot of hackers to restore this photo, but they only ever managed to recover this man’s face.
Who is he if not Charles?” questioned Caleb indifferently.
“Why don’t you ask Charles directly, Mr. Lewis?” Philip was confused.
“Do you think Charles will admit to it even if he is indeed the man in the photo?” Caleb sounded stern.
“Would he even have the guts to admit it that he is the reason why my elder sister is in such a state?”
Philip pursed his lips. “What do you propose then, Mr. Lewis?”
“I would like to court Kathleen. I need her to fall for me, and then I’ll dump her. By then, Charles would
definitely bend to my will for the sake of her happiness. He would answer whatever questions that I
ask.”
Philip didn’t say anything to that.
Caleb looked at Philip with an aloof expression. “What do you think about my plan?”
“I think… it sounds decent.” Philip was almost ashamed.
Caleb furrowed his brows. “Don’t you think it’s good?”“Mr. Lewis, I think you should do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Ms. Lewis only
became like that because of a bad relationship, so I don’t think it’s a good idea to go do that to another
woman. Moreover, Ms. Johnson isn’t in the wrong, no?” Philip commented calmly.
“I’m not going to actually dump her. I’m only going to scare her,” said Caleb.
“You’ll first have to be able to court her, Mr. Lewis,” Philip mocked.
“How could you be certain that I wouldn’t succeed in it?” questioned Caleb frostily.
Philip averted his gaze from Caleb. “I just get that feeling.”
Caleb huffed.
After putting the photo back into the drawer, he said to Philip, “Remember to have Kathleen come to
check on my sister’s condition at home daily during the next few days.”
“Understood.” Philip nodded.
Caleb picked up his jacket and left after putting it on.
At the airport, Samuel boarded the plane.
Tyson came to his side and whispered, “Mr. Macari, according to the latest update, Ms. Johnson had
gone to the Lewis residence just now.”
Samuel had a cold look in his eyes. “Kathleen went to the Lewis residence again?”
Tyson nodded.
“Did you manage to find out what was the purpose of her visit?” asked Samuel aloofly.“Members of the Lewis family are tight-lipped,” said Tyson in chagrin.
“Hmph!” There was a look of gloomy disdain on Samuel’s handsome face. “Think of other ways to
proceed.”
“Yes.” Tyson nodded.
As soon as he said that, another indifferent voice came through. “What a coincidence.”
Samuel looked beside him. “Mr. Lewis.”
Caleb smiled.
His seat was located on the other side.
As he settled into it gracefully, he asked, “Where are you going, Samuel?”
“This is a direct flight, so I am, without a doubt, heading to the same destination as you,” answered
Samuel in an impassive tone.
Caleb smiled knowingly. “Mr. Macari, can I ask you a few questions?”
Samuel didn’t utter a word.
“What does Kate like?” Caleb inquired casually. “I would like to court her, but I don’t know her well yet,
so I would like to get more information from you, who is her ex-husband. Of course, I’ve also heard that
you don’t know her that well even though you’ve known each other for many years and both of you had
been married for quite some time. It seems to me that I’ve directed my question at the wrong person.”
“Do you actually think I’ll tell you?” Samuel found that hilarious.“Are you not telling me because you’re afraid that I might go after Kathleen, or is it that you have no
idea at all?” Caleb sounded as if he were trying to sow discord.
Although Samuel ignored him, he was feeling anxious deep down.
Kathleen won’t belong to anyone but me.
Kathleen let out a sneeze.
Who’s talking about me behind my back?
She was currently filming on set.
The prop master had just hooked her up on a wire.
The next scene that she would be filming was of her jumping off a watchtower.
Everybody double-checked everything and confirmed that nothing could go wrong before lifting
Kathleen into the air.
As Kathleen saw herself getting further and further away from the ground, she was also beginning to
feel uneasy.
The lifting stopped when she had reached a certain height.
Then, the director commanded, “Action!”
The scene depicted the memories of a female assassin.
She had a flashback in her mind as she jumped off the watchtower to cut off the head of the enemy’s
leader.All Kathleen had to do was to go through the motions after she had descended to ground level with the
help of the high-tension wire.
However, a weird noise could be heard as soon as the director called for filming to begin.
Next, Kathleen fell from mid-air, shocking everybody on the set.
“Argh!”
Kathleen was also shocked.
Because she had nothing to hold onto, she could feel herself falling downward.
I’m done for!
Unexpectedly, the prop masters reacted incredibly swiftly and managed to grab the wire with their
hands.
It was fortunate that all of them were wearing gloves when they grabbed the wire.
Just before Kathleen fell flat on the ground, she stopped and hovered in the air a few centimeters
above the ground.
