All Too Late

“When did I ask you to cancel it? Didn’t I tell you that I will still continue to take care of

Kathleen even after we get divorced?” Samuel replied with a darkened face.

Confused, Tyson replied, “I’ll ask the bank to reactivate it.”

Samuel ordered coldly, “Hurry, and remember what I said today. Even after getting

divorced, Kathleen will still have special treatment as usual.”

Tyson nodded and replied, “Understood!”

He started to feel like Samuel might actually have feelings toward Kathleen.

Indifferently, Samuel instructed, “Wait for me at the office.”

Feeling confused again, Tyson asked, “Mr. Macari, aren’t you going to the hospital?”

Samuel coldly replied, “Can you handle the company alone if I go to the hospital every

single day?”

“No, I cannot.” Tyson was fully aware that he was not capable of doing that.

“I’m hanging up.” With that, Samuel ended the call.

Right when he was getting ready to drive to the company, Nicolette called.

“Samuel, didn’t you say you’ll be back in a while? Why are you not back yet?” Nicolette

whined.

“I have to settle some company matters. I’ve hired a caregiver to take care of you. Rest

well. I’ll hang up now,” Samuel replied and swiftly hung up.

Nicolette was stunned when Samuel hung up on her.

Did he actually hang up on me? It must be Kathleen’s fault! This won’t do. I have to figure

out a way to make Kathleen obediently donate her bone marrow to me and vanish from

this world!

Meanwhile, Kathleen finally got up and took a shower. She got out of the room after

changing into a loose outfit.

She went downstairs to check on Diana.

Seemingly full of energy and in good spirits, Diana said, “Katie, you’re here.”

With rosy pink cheeks, Kathleen asked, “Grandma, how are you feeling?”

“I’m feeling much better.” Diana tugged Kathleen’s arm and rolled up her sleeves.

Kathleen felt nothing but awkwardness.

“Samuel, that little brat! He doesn’t have any compassion at all. You don’t have to spoil

him. Even though it’s important to get pregnant, your body is important too,” Diana

reproached.

Upon hearing that, Kathleen felt even more awkward.

She knew this would happen if she stayed in the Macari residence.

“I’ll get the kitchen to make you some mushroom soup. You should have more later.”

Diana laughed and continued, “I was so excited when I heard that you and Samuel will be

staying over. I’ll definitely recover faster with my dear Katie by my side.”

Kathleen smilingly replied, “I’m not capable of doing that.”

Diana lovingly remarked, “Katie, you’re my best remedy.”

Kathleen leaned her head on Diana’s shoulder. Everyone in the Macari family likes me,

except Samuel. Why?

“Katie, don’t be afraid. Let me know if you’ve gotten wronged. I’ll help you.” Diana held

Kathleen’s slightly trembling hands.

Kathleen nodded and hummed in reply. The corners of her eyes were getting watery.

She was afraid of Diana finding out, so she held back her tears.

After that, time flew by as she chatted with Diana.

At eight in the evening, it was time for Diana to rest.

Kathleen left Diana’s room.

Samuel had not returned yet.

Kathleen felt like Samuel would not return for the night.

Once she got back to her room, she received a call from Gemma.

“Gem?” Kathleen asked softly.

“Kathleen, I need your help for something,” Gemma said timidly.

“Okay. What is it?”

“I’ve been volunteering at a charity home, but I can’t help out because of what happened

to Benjamin. I was thinking maybe you could help out. Are you okay with that?” Gemma

asked shyly.

“Of course! That’s a good thing,” Kathleen agreed immediately.

“There are children with autism, so their conditions are a bit special. You’ll need to be

patient, and please take care of yourself as well,” Gemma reminded.

“Autism?” Kathleen had heard of this disorder before, but she did not know much about it.

Gemma nodded and explained, “Yes. These children are quite pitiful. They don’t interact

with the outside world. They are immersed in their own worlds. Life gets tough for them

once their parents or relatives are no longer around because there’s no one to take care of

them.”

Upon hearing that, Kathleen’s heart wrenched.

Now that I’m carrying a baby of my own, I hope my precious little one can grow up safely. I

only want my baby to be happy.

“Okay, I’ll be there tomorrow,” Kathleen agreed and gently caressed her belly.

“I’ll send you the address and some information. I’m really sorry to trouble you,” Gemma

thanked Kathleen again.

Kathleen smilingly replied, “You don’t have to be so polite with me. I’m more than willing

to help out with something like this.”

Gemma breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Okay, that’s good to hear. I have to get to work

now, so I’ll have to end the call.”

“Okay.” Kathleen hung up the phone.

Soon after, she grabbed her tablet and researched autism.

While doing that, she fell asleep.

When Samuel got back, he found her sleeping while leaning against the headboard. She

did not have a blanket on, and her tablet was still on.

He walked over, and right when he was about to turn off the tablet, he read the words:

How do complications during pregnancy lead to autism in children? His hand slightly

trembled.

Is she pregnant?
