Divorce Anxiety Chapter 281Chapter 281 Uncomfortable
Samuel wore a bitter smile. “Are you worried about them or me?”
“That’s enough, Samuel!” Kathleen rearranged her facial features into a solemn expression. “I don’t
care who you are at the moment, but we must cooperate now. We cannot fight against them single-
handedly.”
Samuel’s face darkened. “Who are they?”
“Those people from the Blissful Sect.” She knew she could not keep that information from him because
Samuel would know everything once he questioned the man later.
The Blissful Sect?
He furrowed his brows.
I’ve never heard of them.
“The Blissful Sect is very mysterious and keeps a low profile. There aren’t many people who are aware
of this organization’s existence. They specifically target logistics businesses. Do you have any logistic-
related business, Samuel?”
Kathleen had no other choice but to distract Samuel.
She could not let him know about her dealings with the Blissful Sect.
Otherwise, he would adopt a more extreme personality.
“Are you telling me that the Blissful Sect is targeting my logistics business?” Samuel knitted his brows.Kathleen nodded. “Can you let go of me? I’m getting very uncomfortable.”
Samuel loosened his grip and backed away.
Kathleen sat up on the bed.
Click!
He cuffed her to the headboard.
She was dumbfounded.
“Get some good rest.” Samuel lowered his head and pecked her on her forehead.
D*mn it!
Kathleen was furious.
“Samuel, you *sshole!” she snarled.
He grinned at the sight of her exploding with rage.
Kathleen was stunned.
“Kate, your growth in the past year astonishes me. From utilizing poison to mastering how to use a gun.
My little girl is getting scarier.” Samuel caressed her soft and tender cheek.
She stared at him stiffly. “Were you putting up an act, Samuel?”
Samuel wore a meaningful smile. “Would they have shown themselves if I hadn’t put up an act? Would
you have told me the truth?”
Kathleen was stumped.“The Blissful Sect, huh?” Samuel leaned down to kiss her neck and lips. “I will personally destroy the
organization which had kept your whereabouts hidden for a year.”
She trembled all over.
“Samuel!” she growled.
He kissed her lips forcefully, rendering Kathleen helpless.
She finally understood Samuel was merely luring his prey in the past few days.
Not to mention, his plan was a huge success because he had successfully attracted his prey.
“You told me you’d never lie to me!” Kathleen said to him angrily.
“I did not lie to you. Do you think I was really oblivious to someone aiming at me with a sniper rifle the
other day?” Samuel’s face was perfectly handsome.
Kathleen was at a loss for words.
“Katie, I did not trick you. I was setting those people up. I captured Nicolette because I wanted to lure
them out. However, you were very persistent in following us, so I had to detain you as well,” he
explained.
“Samuel, you better don’t return my freedom. Otherwise, I’ll teach you a lesson!” She glared at him.
“Perhaps I should give you my Academy Awards trophy, since your acting skills are on par with
Hollywood standards!”
“I’ll offer you my life after I deal with the Blissful Sect.” He turned on his heels and left.
Kathleen sat on the bed and sighed.He’s indeed the formidable Samuel Macari. I need to be so careful when going against him. D*mn it! I
should not have gone easy on him.
Nonetheless, she was still mad.
Kathleen realized the Blissful Sect had been targeting Samuel since a year ago.
That old b*stard had fooled her, and that woman was most probably a member of the Blissful Sect.
Kathleen tried to force herself to calm down.
It seems like the Blissful Sect is targeting Samuel for a different reason than the one I have in mind.
No, this can’t do! I need to go and listen to the questions Samuel will ask them.
She unlocked the handcuff effortlessly.
The handcuff could not possibly restrict her movements.
After she had reunited with Charles, the first skill she learned was to unlock a handcuff.
She exited the room and went downstairs.
The rain had stopped pouring outside, but the wind was still howling.
The tree branches rustled against the windows due to the gales appearing like a demon waving its
claws.
Kathleen arrived at the entrance of the basement.
She heard Samuel’s indifferent voice. “What’s Kathleen’s position in the Blissful Sect?”
Kathleen was startled.Is Samuel suspecting me of being a member of the Blissful Sect?
“She’s not one of us, but she’ll join us soon,” that man replied.
“What do you mean by that?”
“Our leader is impressed by her abilities and is interested in nurturing her,” he explained.
Kathleen frowned.
That man was right, but he was not telling the whole truth.
“Isn’t it comical for your leader to hand over such a large organization to another person for no
reason?” Samuel was unconvinced.
As I expected, look at that. That’s Samuel Macari at his finest. Therefore, it is very difficult to fool him.
On the other hand, he’s so despicably adept at tricking others!
“That’s really all I know. I’m not a core member of the Blissful Sect, so I don’t know anything else,” that
man said fearfully.
Samuel furrowed his brows.
Judging by this man’s expression, I suppose he’s not lying.
“They ordered you to capture Nicolette to target me?” Samuel asked frostily.
That man nodded. “Most probably.”
Samuel scoffed, “I’ve been clashing with your organization for so many years, yet I did not know your
organization’s name all along. Little did I expect my wife to become your leader soon.”Kathleen was livid.
Who’s your wife? I’m your ex-wife.
That man felt Samuel’s tone was laced with a hint of peculiarity when the latter spoke.
Samuel knew that was probably all the information he could obtain from that man.
He stood up and aimed his gun at the man.
That man was terrified and dumbfounded. “Ahh! Please don’t kill me. I don’t want to die. I’ve told you
everything I know!”
“That’s why there’s no use allowing you to live,” Samuel announced coldly.
That man felt completely helpless at that moment.
“Samuel, stop!” Kathleen walked into the basement. “You cannot kill him.”
“Advisor.” That man was desperate at that moment.
“Advisor?” Samuel grimaced.
Kathleen pursed her lips. “I am the advisor to the Blissful Sect’s research and development
department. I am skilled in traditional medicine, so I was appointed as their external advisor.”
Samuel wore an unfathomable look.
Kathleen turned to gaze at that man. “You know who I am? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
“Ms. Johnson, I’ve only met you once,” he replied.
“Listen. I can spare your life, but you must follow me back to the Blissful Sect,” she said.“Okay.” He nodded.
Samuel stared at Kathleen with a poker face. “You’re leaving?”
She met his eyes. “I need to settle some personal matters. I reckon this has nothing to do with you?”
Are we falling out now?
Samuel grabbed her wrist. “Are you going to the Blissful Sect? Let’s go together then.”
“I will not bring you along, Samuel.” She shook her head. “I cannot betray the Blissful Sect.”
Cannot betray?
novelbinSamuel questioned her, “Why? Is that useless organization more important than me?”
Kathleen steeled her resolution. “That’s right. I have the Blissful Sect to thank for my current
achievements. Regardless of how the Blissful Sect treats you, I cannot be ungrateful. Do you
understand?”
Samuel’s face fell.
I don’t understand!
