Divorce Anxiety Chapter 367Chapter 367 Someone Else
Kathleen found this a little funny. “Of course, I did lose my memory.”
Eil tilted his head, looking at her oddly. “Hmm. Then I’ll believe that you really don’t want to
remarry Daddy.”
“Why?” Kathleen didn’t understand.
“Because I was testing you,” replied Eil with a shrug. “Based on your reaction, you seem to have no
feelings for Daddy whatsoever.”
Kathleen snorted. “Is it that obvious?”
He nodded.
Kathleen took a deep breath. “Eil, if I don’t get back together with your daddy, will you hate me for it?”
she asked.
“No.” Eil shook his head gently. “As Daddy said before, you have the right to decide your future. He
said that Desi and I should not hold you back.”
Kathleen was surprised. “Samuel actually said such things to you?”
“Yeah,” murmured Eil.
novelbin“When did he tell you this?” Kathleen was a little surprised.
“It was the day we were brought here,” Eil replied. “Daddy said I am the older brother, so I need to take
care of you and Desi. He told me to keep an eye on Desi to ensure she behaves well and to make sure
that she doesn’t force you and Daddy together.”Kathleen’s heart softened. “He truly said this?”
Eil nodded again.
Kathleen smiled helplessly. “He really knows how to ease my burdens.”
She remained silent for a bit before asking, “Eil, do you want to go abroad with me?”
A hint of surprise registered on Eil’s face. “Do you want to leave, Mommy?”
Kathleen nodded. “When things have been sorted out, then we’ll leave with Granny. What say you?”
Eil had a slightly distraught expression on his face. “If we all leave, then won’t Daddy be left alone?”
Kathleen did not respond.
The boy pondered over this briefly before turning toward Kathleen again. With a serious expression on
his face, Eil asked, “Mommy, can I stay behind?”
Kathleen was stunned. “Do you want to stay?”
“I want to accompany Daddy,” said Eil morosely. “If we leave, then Daddy will be left alone. Won’t that
be sad?”
Kathleen looked at him, her expression solemn. “I will respect your decision.”
“Mommy, it’s not that I don’t love you. I love you both!” Eil then proceeded to give Kathleen a hug. “Desi
would definitely be willing to go with you. I’ll stay here with Daddy.”
Kathleen could feel a pang of hurt and discomfort.
Samuel has raised the boy well. He is responsible and very mature.She patted his head. “I’m going to continue cooking. Why don’t you go and play with Desi?”
“Okay.” Eil then wriggled away from Kathleen and left the room.
Kathleen looked at the two children playing in the living room with a gentle but complicated expression.
Am I being too selfish? Should I think this through for the sake of the kids? But can those wounds really
be healed? How do we even start over?
At the pier the next day, Kathleen stood there wearing a black trench coat and a pair of sunglasses.
A while later, a cruise ship arrived.
She walked over.
Several medical staff rushed out to push out a wiry-looking teenager who lay on a medical bed.
It was Zion Hoover.
She walked over and asked bluntly, “You are all hired by Axeworth Corporation?”
“No, we are not.” They shook their heads in fright and denial. “We are just ordinary medical staff.”
Kathleen said indifferently, “Then there is nothing more for you to do here.”
The medical staff looked at each other.
Kathleen folded her arms and said, “If you think there is a problem, then you may take him back with
you.”
None of them made a sound.
Kathleen motioned for her own staff to come over and help Zion into the ambulance.She turned around and walked away.
Among the medical staff, there was a woman wearing a mask. Her eyes glinted with a dangerous look.
Kathleen got into the ambulance and took Zion’s pulse.
Zion is not doing well. It’s no wonder Theodore is anxious.
She took out a vial with a blue-purple solution in it. After inserting it into a syringe, she carefully injected
Zion with it.
Just then, Zion opened his eyes in a daze.
He saw a very beautiful woman injecting him with an unknown liquid.
“Let go of me!” Zion’s tone was weak but imposing.
Kathleen’s frigid eyes reflected his pale face. “I’d have more sense if I were you. If the needle gets
embedded inside you, then I’m not going to bother removing it.”
Zion paused.
Kathleen pulled out the needle and said coldly, “Continue struggling if you must. There’s nobody here
to help you.”
Zion looked at her with obvious disdain.
“Theodore didn’t tell you who I was?” queried Kathleen icily.
Zion did not speak.“Giving me an attitude is pointless,” tutted Kathleen. ”If you mess with me, then I will make your life
very miserable.”
“I don’t believe you will!” said Zion indignantly.
“How sure are you?” Kathleen smirked. “Do you know me that well?”
Zion could not respond.
“Did Theodore tell you something then?” Kathleen smiled meaningfully. “Speaking of which, I have no
control over Theodore. But now that I have a hostage in my hands, I can do whatever I want.”
Zion bit his lip. “You are not allowed to treat Grandpa like this!”
Kathleen laughed mockingly. “Why did you say nothing when he treated me thus?”
“What do you know?” Zion exclaimed indignantly. “Grandpa is a good man! I’d be dead if it weren’t for
him!”
“He may be a good person to you, but not to everyone else,” said Kathleen nonchalantly.
Zion was very angry. “You are all bad people. I only trust Grandpa!”
Kathleen shrugged.
She could not be bothered to debate with a child.
Just then, Kathleen’s phone rang.
She picked it up on the first ring.
“How is Zion doing?” came Theodore’s baritone voice through the receiver.“I just injected him with some medicine,” Kathleen replied. “He’s doing better and has since regained
enough strength to argue with me.”
“That’s good.” There was a long pause before Theodore breathed a sigh of relief. “I believe you’ve
already asked your grandmother?”
“Yes,” retorted Kathleen. “I know that she is linked to you.”
Theodore smiled coldly. “Does she still miss Trevor?”
“No.” Kathleen shook her head. “She called Trevor a scumbag.”
Theodore smiled faintly. “Really?”
“Why would I lie to you?” Kathleen furrowed her brows. “I really wanted to ask. Why did you let Lauren
drug Samuel and then cure him yourself?”
Theodore smirked before his tone turned deep again. “You little brat. If you have so many questions,
why haven’t you looked into it yourself?”
“We had a deal. I’d help you treat Zion in exchange for the truth.” Kathleen then clicked her tongue in
annoyance. “Do you think I’m letting this slide just because I know who you are?”
Theodore’s smile was sardonic. “Don’t worry; you will gradually learn about those things. You already
know how you’re related to Zion, right?”
“So he’s my cousin?” Kathleen’s mouth twitched slightly. “Then we don’t share the same grandfather.”
“You just need to remember that being related by blood is enough.” Suddenly, Theodore’s voice
became hushed. “I will tell you another secret.”
“Of course.”“Your mother was indeed taken away by Hector Yoeger in secret,” murmured Theodore. “However, the
one who removed all traces of your mother was someone else entirely.”
