Divorce Anxiety Chapter 301Chapter 301 Do You Love Him
Five days later, Kathleen finally wrapped up filming her scenes.
The film crew prepared a banquet to celebrate that day, and it was necessary for Kathleen to attend
since she was the female lead.
She had overheard that Samuel would attend the banquet too.
Despite a moment of hesitance nipping at her mind, she decided it was best to go and even invited
Caleb.
It was not long before Caleb arrived to pick her up.
His jaw fell agape as though mesmerized when she strolled out of the Yoeger residence.
Kathleen donned a velvet, deep emerald floor-length gown. Its thin straps highlighted her sculpted
collarbones. Meanwhile, the high slit gave an occasional peek of her legs that went on for miles.
Her ethereal and goddess-like presence left Caleb in a gawking mess.
Eventually, his thin lips curled upward into a teasing grin. “Seeing you like this makes it impossible for
me to ever get a divorce with you.”
His words caught Kathleen by surprise as she chuckled. “We’re not even married yet.”
“There’s only two more days to go.” Caleb opened the car door for Kathleen.
Once she got in, he shut the door and circled the car to the driver’s seat.That was when Kathleen’s delicate brows quirked with concern. “Have you resolved the issue with your
logistics business?”
“Yeah, I have. The other party has agreed not to cause any more problems starting today. It’s all thanks
to you.” Caleb’s tone was oozing with utter gratitude.
“There’s no need to thank me. I helped out because I owed you.”
Caleb looked over at the jaw-dropping beauty next to him. He then spoke as if sounding her out.
“Samuel will be there today.”
“He’s the one who allowed me to star in the movie. It’s only natural that he’ll attend the movie’s end-of-
filming banquet. If he tries to beat you up, you can get behind me for safety.” There was a frosty nip in
Kathleen’s tone.
Caleb snorted before refuting, “You think I’m afraid of him? As if! He’s unwell now, so what exactly can
he do to me?”
His words made Kathleen purse her lips.
She had found out from Gemma that Samuel’s body did not recover well. The doctors kept suggesting
he rest more, but he refused to listen.
It even seemed like Samuel no longer consumed the medicines prescribed to him.
“Oh, right. I’ve caught the person who poisoned Samuel.” Caleb’s voice deepened a few notches.
“Would you like to meet him?”
“Yeah. I’d like to see him after the banquet,” came Kathleen’s reply.
“No problem. I’ll have Philip take him to my home, where they’ll wait for our return.”Kathleen nodded in response.
Soon, the two arrived at the hotel where the banquet took place.
It was not in Kathleen’s intention to stay for long.
She only planned to show up briefly, greeting the film crew and actors before making her exit.
However, everyone was enthusiastic and eager to chat with her, which delayed her plan.
novelbinWhen she finally got ready to leave, she bumped into Samuel.
He had arrived late.
All eyes were on him as he had lost a significant amount of weight after these few days.
His once charming and elegant face seemed gloomier. Even his chiseled features were more defined
from the weight loss.
The suit on his body did not help. Rather, it only emphasized how thin his waist had gotten.
When he noticed Kathleen, a frosty gleam flashed across his eyes.
Meanwhile, Kathleen was busy thinking if she should greet him since they were face to face.
However, before she could, Samuel walked right past her side.
A relieved sigh slipped out of her lips. Yet, her chest inexplicably tightened at that moment.
“Wait up, Kathleen,” Spencer suddenly called out to her. “Since Mr. Macari is here, why don’t we take a
group photo?”
The sudden request flustered Kathleen.And here I thought I could avoid facing Samuel… I guess it’s inevitable.
With that thought in mind, she turned around and nodded.
The entire group soon arranged themselves in position. At first, Kathleen stood with Spencer and
Timothy.
However, for some reason, Spencer suddenly ran to the other side of the group, leaving Samuel by her
side.
That left her speechless.
It was also then that someone accidentally nudged Timothy.
He lost his footing and tipped over, crashing into Kathleen.
The domino effect did not stop there as Kathleen soon stumbled toward Samuel’s back.
Fortunately, his slender fingers latched around her waist in time. His gravelly voice rang out, “Be
careful.”
Only after Kathleen steadied herself did she reply, “Thank you.”
The two’s interaction got cut short when Samuel removed his hand from her emotionlessly.
It was not long before a photographer came over and took the group photo.
Once that was over, Kathleen pivoted on her heel, ready to leave.
However, Samuel moved faster. He grabbed her wrist before saying in his deep voice, “I need to talk to
you.”Kathleen froze at the abrupt physical contact, snapping, “Please let go of me. Caleb’s here, and I don’t
want him to misunderstand.”
Samuel’s eyes darkened as sheer wrath emanated from him. He released her wrist while curtly
instructing, “This way, please.”
For a moment, Kathleen hesitated but eventually went with him to a discreet corner.
She then boldly locked eyes with him. “What did you want to tell me?”
“Grandma wants you to visit the Macari residence. She says she has a gift for you since you’re getting
married,” said Samuel coldly.
“Perhaps it’s best if I don’t go. I can’t accept anything from Old Mrs. Macari anymore.”
“Do as you wish. It’s your choice whether you want to cut all ties with the Macari family or not.”
Kathleen pursed her lips. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way then—”
“Do you love him?” Samuel added in his husky voice, “Caleb, I mean.”
“I do.” A moment passed as Kathleen pondered over her words carefully. Then, she continued, “I
thought about it, and I’m sure now that I love him.”
In that instant, bitterness engulfed Samuel. It felt like bile had lodged at the back of his throat while a
sharp pain burned up his nostrils.
“Congratulations then.” His gaze locked onto her with grueling frost and malice. “Let’s hope Caleb
doesn’t have an evil first love who’ll cause you trouble.”
Kathleen was rendered speechless at that.Just then, Samuel took one step closer to her.
Her instincts kicked in as she retreated backward.
Yet, to her surprise, all Samuel did was hand over a box. “This is for you.”
A frown marred Kathleen’s face. “What is it?”
“Something you need,” Samuel pulled her hand over and placed the box in her palm.
It seemed small and was unlikely a jewellery box.
Right when Kathleen wanted to return it, Samuel had already strode far away from her.
With knitted brows and a growing curiosity, Kathleen opened the box.
What laid inside made all her muscles tense.
“Melting Ice Grass?” she exclaimed.
Where did he get this? I’ve only ever read about it in old books! Goodness, I’ve never come across one
despite searching for it all these years… Yet, Samuel managed to somehow find it? I can’t believe it.
Perplexed by the hefty gift, she dashed ahead, hoping to catch up to Samuel.
Alas, he was long gone by then.
“What happened? Why do you seem so panicked?” Caleb approached her at that moment.
“It’s the Melting Ice Grass.” Kathleen showed him the box in her hand and continued, “I don’t know how
Samuel got his hands on it.”“Oh?” Caleb took it over to have a closer look. “Are you sure this is it?”
Kathleen nodded. “I’m sure.”
“I thought such a grass would look fresher,” Caleb commented with a trace of suspicion.
To that, Kathleen explained, “Melting Ice Grass has long been extinct. Those who have collected them
are few and far between, so this specific grass is extremely precious. Having money doesn’t mean one
can secure it.”
“You’re afraid that Samuel has traded something important for it?” Caleb raised his brow upon
deducing her thoughts.
“Yeah.” Kathleen took the box back into her arms.
“Don’t worry. Samuel’s not that dumb.” Then, Caleb patted her shoulders reassuringly. “Although, this
means your brother can now be cured.”
“Yeah,” said Kathleen, her grip tightening on the box.
“Come on.” Caleb reached out to hold her hand. “Didn’t you say you wanted to see who poisoned
Samuel?”
“Okay.” Kathleen nodded.
She joined him in his car as they departed the banquet.
Meanwhile, Samuel’s hawk-like eyes studied the two from afar.
His handsome face grew abnormally pale while he tailed the couple’s car.
Some time passed when he noticed Caleb was taking Kathleen to the Lewis residence.The two even entered the building alongside each other.
That was enough to cast a grim shade over his face.
Initially, he did not believe it when Kathleen said she loved Caleb.
However, it was evident that she had told the truth, especially since she went to Caleb’s home this late.
