She Is Not Dead

With that, Samuel got up and exited the bar. Tyson looked at the dumbfounded woman.

“Why can’t you women learn to be smarter?” If Samuel were a player, he would not save himself for

Kathleen for so many years. Lillian wanted to beg for mercy, but Samuel was long gone. Initially, a few

other women were also eager to try, but upon seeing what happened to Lilian, they were instantly

rendered speechless, thankful that they were not impulsive earlier. Otherwise, they would have been

kicked out of Jadeborough as well. Meanwhile, Samuel sat in the Maybach. Sitting in the passenger

seat, Tyson handed over the documents.

“Mr. Macari, these are the documents you wanted.” Skimming through the documents, Samuel uttered,

“Good work.”

“What’s next, Mr. Macari?” Tyson queried curiously.

“We’ll go for a hunt,” Samuel responded icily.

“Understood!” Tyson nodded. Samuel massaged the space between his brows.

“Okay, you can go back now. It’s late. Go be with your wife and children.”

“Let me take you home, Mr. Macari,” said Tyson worriedly.

“It’s late, and you drank alcohol.”

“No one’s waiting for me at home.” His house was too deserted. Samuel was a person who liked peace

and quiet. However, a house with people waiting for him and no one waiting was not the same. Samuel

was already thirty-three years old. He only realized the feeling of having someone keeping the lights on

for him. In the past, Kathleen would leave the lights on for him. No matter how late he got off work, she

would wait for him on the couch.

At that time, he did not appreciate it, but now, he realized how great it felt to have someone care for

him.

“Does Ms. Johnson still refuse to forgive you?” Tyson asked.

“It’s not a matter of whether or not she forgives me. She has forgotten about me, Tyson,” replied

Samuel in a hoarse voice. She has no feelings for me at all. In the past, Samuel regarded her feelings

for him as a pillar of support. However, at the moment, his heart was empty.

“Let me take you home, Mr. Macari,” Tyson stated.

Samuel responded with a nod. Tyson went to the driver’s seat and drove Samuel back home. After

that, he took a taxi and left. As Samuel lay on the cold bed, the corners of his eyes were moist. I have

no right to ask for it. As long as Kathleen is still alive, that’s enough.

At the Yoeger residence, Yareli received a call from Vanessa.

“Bad news, Yareli. Kathleen has returned,” Vanessa informed solemnly.

“Isn’t she dead?” Yareli was surprised. Vanessa shook her head and replied, “No, she is not dead.”

“Does Samuel know?” Yareli queried, panicking. Regretfully, Vanessa replied, “He must have known

because it was he who rescued her. It was so close!”

“Mom, what should I do?” Yareli asked aggrievedly.

“I waited for so long, yet Samuel still refuses to marry me. Now that Kathleen is back, it is even more

impossible for him to marry me.”

“Calm down. Kathleen has lost her memory, so she doesn’t remember anything. Besides, you’re linked

to Samuel because of the lovebug. Kathleen stands no chance against that. Samuel will be yours

sooner or later.”

“But Kathleen is alive. That is the biggest threat to me.”

“Don’t worry. I have already thought of a plan,” Vanessa said coldly. Immediately, Yareli became

excited.

“Really? What’s the plan?”

“It’s better for you not to know. Knowing too much will do you no good, so even if the plan fails, you can

remain innocent.”

“Oh, okay,” replied Yareli with a nod. After that, she hung up the phone. All of a sudden, she heard

something coming from the door. Getting to her feet, she walked to the door and opened it, but she

found nothing outside. Did I hear it wrongly?

A few more days passed. Samuel went to the mansion twice these past few days. Once in the morning,

and once in the evening. He didn’t particularly go there to bother Kathleen, as he only wanted to meet

the kids. Samuel would occasionally go in for a meal before leaving.

Both Kathleen and he were adapting to that way of interaction. In the past few days, the wound on

Kathleen’s body had healed a lot.

Today, Samuel got off work to see the children. Once he walked in, he spotted Kathleen wearing black

glasses. Her head was on the coffee table as she wrote and drew around. Samuel walked over and sat

down.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

“The basement is empty. I’m planning to turn it into a laboratory.”

“Do you need me to help? I can assign people for you,” Samuel uttered softly. Not even lifting her head,

Kathleen replied, “No need. I can handle it myself.”

As Samuel stared at Kathleen’s delicate profile face and slender white neck, his thin lips curved

upward. Just being able to look at her made him happy. Putting her pen down, Kathleen looked at him.

“Do you have something to ask me?”

“Yeah, if you’re free.”

“Ask away, then,” said Kathleen. Samuel was silent for a moment. Then, he asked, “Will you always be

in Jadeborough?” Kathleen was stunned.

“Huh?” Samuel kept his eyes on her.

“Of course, I’ll be here,” the woman responded in an icy tone.

“The children are here. Where else could I go?” Hearing her reply, Samuel secretly heaved a sigh of

relief. He felt much more relaxed. Samuel said softly, “Kate, five years ago, Lauren put a male lovebug

in me, and Yareli has the female lovebug in her body. Did you know about that?” Kathleen furrowed her

brows.

“You have a male lovebug in your body?” Samuel nodded. Kathleen reached out and grabbed

Samuel’s wrist. Samuel hadn’t touched her for a long time, not even a strand of hair.

Hence, he felt comfortable with her soft hand on his wrist. Retrieving her hand, Kathleen stated, “That’s

weird. Are you sure, Samuel?” “Is there any problem?” Samuel asked. Kathleen pursed her lips.

“Yeah, a big one at that. You don’t have a lovebug in your body, but there’s a poisonous parasitic worm

in you. You’ll be fine after consuming meds, though.” Samuel frowned at that.

“If you don’t believe me, you can go for a checkup.”

“But I did have it in my body when I last went for a checkup.” Samuel was a little confused.

“When was that?” Kathleen asked.

“About five years ago,” replied Samuel.

Five years ago? At that moment, Charles came in.

“I think that old man did it,” he voiced icily.

“Back then, when Samuel was declared dead in the operating room, an old man came in. While he

brought Samuel back to life, he took you away.” Kathleen was surprised to learn that.

“Could that old man be my master?” Charles nodded.

“That’s right, it’s him. He made us all unconscious by the door of the operating room.” Kathleen deeply

furrowed her eyebrows.

“Lauren poisoned Samuel, then my master detoxified him. What are they trying to do?” Charles shook

his head, as he wasn’t sure either.

“Trying to find a host, perhaps,” said Samuel.

“When your master came to me, he said he could help me get the lovebug out.” Hearing that, Kathleen

frowned even more.

“Removing the lovebug by force will cause you death. Are you crazy?” Samuel fell silent.

“He exchanged the Snow Grass for the parasitic worm for me,” stated Charles.
