Chapter 479 The Show Has Just Started

“This is what he promised to give Ezra?” Samuel asked in a solemn voice.

Kathleen nodded. “The show has just started.”

Samuel did not know what Kathleen had done. However, just by observing her expression alone, he

could tell she was determined.

Trevor will have to bear the consequences soon enough.

“There’s a Sylvonican restaurant in front of us. Let’s go there.” Kathleen pointed at a restaurant not far

away.

“All right.” Samuel nodded obediently.

Kathleen took his hand into hers as she said, “Even though I can’t really remember, I think this is the first

time we’re having dinner peacefully.”

Samuel was at a loss on how to reply.

It was his fault, after all.

He had never once shown her how it felt like to be loved.

“Let’s consider today a date,” Kathleen added languidly.

A date? Oh right, we’ve never gone on a date before. Samuel gulped before stating, “I remember that

you and Ryan went on a holiday once.”

Kathleen shrugged. “That did happen. However, you ruined it. He was able to give me what you couldn’t,

and yet, you still ruined it.”

She was angry.

For as long as she lived, she had never once gone on a proper date.

That was when Samuel held her hand. “You’re my wife. If you want to go on a date, I’ll go with you.

You’re not allowed to think of other men.”

Otherwise, he would get jealous.

Kathleen snorted.

Samuel’s heart softened when he saw the playful pout on her face. He eventually added, “I’m sorry.”

“It’s all right. That’s all in the past now.” Kathleen looked up at the sky as she continued, “I’m a bit

disappointed I couldn’t enjoy happier times with the person I liked the most in my prime. However, what

we have now is fine, because I’m still with the same person I love.”

Samuel’s eyes instantly reddened.

He held Kathleen’s hands tightly. “Kate, I…” he trailed off.

Samuel knew deep down that he was not worthy of her profound love.

For as long as he could remember, Kathleen was the one who put more effort into their relationship.

At that moment, Kathleen was also moved to tears from Samuel’s reaction. “It’s all in the past now,” she

said as she tried to hold back her tears.

Sometimes it was all right to lose part of one’s memory.

With reddened eyes, Samuel asked, “Kate, can we start over?”

“We’ve already started over, Mr. Macari,” Kathleen said in a teasing voice as she blinked.

Mr. Macari?

Samuel cupped Kathleen’s face with his hands as he lowered his head to kiss her. “Thank you for giving

me another chance, Ms. Johnson.”

Kathleen scoffed playfully. “You literally forced your way through.”

Samuel was rendered speechless.

Then again, he figured her response was only normal; it was his fault, after all.

“Let’s go. I’m starving.” Kathleen dragged Samuel into the restaurant.

During their meal, Samuel suddenly spoke up. “Did the Lester family talk to you after the surgery?”

Kathleen nodded. “They asked me to go over tonight, but I rejected.”

Samuel gazed intently at her without uttering a word.

“Actually, I kind of guessed what they wanted. But I personally still don’t want to do it,” Kathleen

explained. “I told them I would leave after Old Mrs. Lester’s post-surgery condition has stabilized. As for

what they intended to say, I’ll think about it after settling the issues back at Jadeborough.”

“Are you not going to acknowledge them as your family?” Samuel asked.

After a brief moment of hesitation, Kathleen replied, “No.”

Samuel then left the topic at that.

Since Kathleen had her own plans, he did not want to affect her.

“Did you know, Samuel?” Kathleen started. “I find it troublesome that I now have a big family. My father

was never like my mother. He never wanted to find out his true identity. Thus, I guess he had already

figured things out earlier on.”

Samuel meaningful gaze bore into her.

“After thinking about it, I realized that it didn’t matter if I acknowledged myself as a member of the Lester

family or not,” she continued faintly. “I guess that my father probably thought his presence was useless

after finding out that Old Mrs. Lester had two other sons and a daughter.”

“Are you sure that’s what Old Mrs. Lester thinks?” Samuel replied. “She really wants you back.”

Kathleen remained silent.

To be honest, she had no idea.

“Kate, although I don’t know what your father was thinking, there’s no denying that the Lester family

really wants you back,” Samuel deduced.

Kathleen looked at him. “I never thought there would be a day where you would be the one giving me

advice.”

“There’s still a long way to go in life. There may come a time where you’ll regret your decision,” Samuel

explained. “Why don’t you just treat them as normal relatives for now?”

After hearing Samuel’s suggestion, Kathleen nodded. “I’ll talk to my brother about it.”

Samuel’s handsome expression had hints of solemness hidden within.

After their meal, Kathleen and Samuel went back to the hotel.

Just as they arrived at the main entrance, Kathleen’s phone rang.

“Kate, it’s me!” Gemma’s anxious voice sounded over the phone.

“What’s wrong?” Kathleen frowned.

“Something happened with Eil,” Gemma replied. “He’s missing.”

“What? I’m coming back now!” Kathleen instantly answered with her brows in a tight knot.

“Okay.” Gemma nodded.

After hanging up, Kathleen looked at Samuel and said, “Eil’s missing.”

Hearing that, Samuel furrowed his brows. “Let’s go.”

He held Kathleen’s hand as he called for Tyson.

The two quickly drove back to Pollerton at once.

While in the car, Kathleen gave Levi a call and asked him to relay a message to the Lester family.

“Old Mrs. Lester’s condition has pretty much stabilized. The other doctors can take care of the rest,” she

explained. “I have something important going on, and I have to leave.”

“All right.” Levi nodded. “Do you need my help?”

“I’ll look for you if I need you,” Kathleen replied.

“Okay. I’ll be waiting for your call,” Levi answered.

With that, Kathleen hung up.

By then, they had already arrived at Pollerton.

Samuel held Kathleen’s hand tightly. “Don’t worry. There’s a tracker on Eil. I’ve already sent people to

look for him.”

“A tracker?” Kathleen was surprised.

“Eil asked me to give him one. Since he’s my son, there will definitely be a risk of him getting kidnapped.

That’s why he allowed me to insert a nano-sized GPS tracker into his body,” Samuel explained.

Kathleen instantly understood, and she nodded her head.

Soon enough, Samuel got a call from Leonard.

“Samuel, your son is back in the country,” Leonard reported. “Do you need me to go to the airport?”

Samuel frowned. “Are you sure that he’s at the airport?”

“Yes.” Leonard nodded. “I’m sure.”

Samuel turned to look at Kathleen. “All right. Thank you.”

He then hung up the phone.

“What’s going on?” Kathleen asked uneasily.

“Eil has returned to the country. However, we don’t know if he returned on his own or if someone

kidnapped him,” Samuel replied solemnly.

“There’s no way Eil would go alone. Someone must have taken him!” Kathleen said with furrowed brows.

She was extremely terrified after hearing about the possibility of her son getting kidnapped.

After all, Samuel had been kidnapped before, too.

“As long as Eil is in the country, he’ll be fine,” Samuel comforted Kathleen.

Kathleen pursed her lips. “I’m afraid that Luna and the others are the ones that took Eil away.”

Her fears were natural since those people had been plotting Kathleen’s downfall for a long time.

“Don’t worry. We’ll wait for Leonard’s call,” Samuel replied seriously.

“Okay.” Kathleen nodded.

Even though she was putting on a calm exterior, she secretly felt a crippling worry deep in her heart.
