Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety)

Chapter 471

Chapter 471 Can You Adopt Me “No, of course not.” Levi shook his head. Why would there be a

problem? There’s no way they’d do anything to her. “Let’s go. Everyone isalready seated.” Levi brought

Kathleen to the dining room and sat down. Betty was absent from the dining table due to her health

condition; the maid had sent the meal to her room. “Mr.

Lester, about Old Mrs.

Lester’s condition—” Kathleen looked at Anthony.

“Kate, eat up.

My husband has something to tend to, so he'll be late, but us Lesters are all around.” Yvonne put some

food onKathleen's plate before she even finished speaking. Us Lesters? Kathleen could definitely feel

that something was off. “I—” she began. Anthony interrupted with a half-smile, “Ms.

Johnson, you don’t have to worry.

We asked Levi to invite you here because we believe in your medical skills.” Kathleen spoke faintly.

“Old Mrs.

Lester is old.

It's quite risky for her to undergo surgery.” The old woman was eighty years old, after all. “Do you not

have confidence, too?” Anthony queried. “ThoughI'm confident, you'll never know what's going to

happen on the operating table.

Since you've made a decision, I shall arrange for Old Mrs.

Lester to be admitted to the hospital and keep a close eye on her condition before taking the next step.

What do you think?” said Kathleen.

Anthony nodded in agreement.

“All right.

We’ll listen to you.”

“Okay.”

“Kate’s medical skills are so impressive.

We should believe in her.

Let's eat, shall we?” Yvonne urged. Everyone began eating. As Kathleen ate slowly, Yvonne, who was

sitting next to her, wouldn’t stop addingfood to her plate. Kathleen was never a big eater, so it was

impossible for her to finish all the food that was piled on her plate like a tiny mountain. Can someone

please help me finish some? After the meal, the Lesters all went to the study. Kathleen, who was

stuffed, decided to take a walk in the garden to help her digest better. When she walked near the gate,

she saw a black car parked outside and a tall figure standing beside the car. The figure exuded

immense loneliness that couldn't be ignored. Her heart clenched and she strode toward the figure,

which turned out to be Samuel. The man glanced sideways at her with an unfathomable look in his

eyes. “It's really you.

Why are you here?” She frowned slightly. “You don't want me anymore.” Samuel’s voice was husky.

She pursed her lips.

“Then why are you here?” “I miss you, so I came to see you,” he replied hoarsely. “Then?” she asked.

He paused for a whilebefore saying, “Can you please adopt me?” She didn't know how to respond to

that. He stared at her quietly and waited for her response. “I bet there are a lot of women out there who

are willing to adopt you,” she said after some time. “But I only want you to adopt me.

Can't you consider giving me a chance? Although I've lost my memory, I’m a pretty good catch.” There

was a hint of distress inhis deep voice. She took a deep breath as she looked at his bloodshot eyes.

“Fine.

I’ll give you a chance.”

He curved his lips.

“Are you staying here tonight?” “Yeah.” She nodded. “I'm staying in the hotel tonight.

Are you coming?” He walked forward and looked at her through the gaps of the gate. As there was a Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

gate between them, he couldn’t touch her. Yet, there was eagernessand hope in his eyes. “No,” she

rejected him. A disappointed expression appeared on his face. “You took a plane and flew here as soon

as you woke up?” She took a step forward. He nodded.

“Yeah.

I'm afraid you'd punish me again if I was late.” “I never punished you.” He reached out and grabbed her

hand through the gaps of the gate.

“Are you still mad?” “I'm not mad,” she replied indifferently. “But you were jealous.” Kathleen was

speechless. “What are you doing here at the Lester residence?”he questioned. “I'm here to treat Old

Mrs.

Lester's illness,” she answered. He looked at her with affection in his eyes.

“I see.

You should go inside.

Nardor’s quite chilly, especially during nighttime.

Your hands feel cold.” Samuel's palm was dry and warm. Kathleen looked at him.

“Okay.

You should get some rest, too.” She retracted her hand from his grip and turned to leave. As she

walked away, he stood at the gate and watched until shedisappeared from his sight. Only then did he

heave a sigh of relief and return to the car. Tyson, who was gripping the steering wheel, was beside

himself with excitement. He was confident that Kathleen and Samuel were going to get together again.

This is great news! I was so worried! “Mr.

Macari, are we going back to the hotel?” he asked when Samuel got back in the car. “Youshould go

back yourself.” Samuel leaned back on the car seat and closed his eyes. Tyson was shocked to hear

that. Is he planning to wait here until they open the gates the next morning? “Mr.

Macari, I don't think it's a good idea for you to wait here.

What would they think of Mrs.

Macari when they see you waiting for her? Why don't you return to the hotel and come back here early

in the morning?” Tyson tried persuading. However, Samuelremained silent. “Mr.

Macari, if you stay here, I’m sure Mrs.

Macari would get mad at you when she sees you the next morning,” threatened Tyson. Samuel gulped

and said, “Let’s go back.” “All right.” Tyson smiled happily, relieved thatSamuel finally listened to his

advice. Using Mrs.

Macari's name is always the best solution. The next day, Kathleen was going to bring Betty to one of

the best hospitals in Nardor to get aphysical checkup. When they were about to head out, Kathleen

saw Samuel again. As soon as she stepped out of the opened gates, Samuel reached out his arms to

hold her. He didn't get to embrace her the day before, and he regretted it as soon as he got back to the

hotel. They should've at least hugged after they were on good terms again. Kathleen placed her hand

on his and asked, “Have you been waiting here for a long time?” “Yeah.

I miss you.” Samuel's voice was dull. I couldn't wait to see you. She chuckled in amusement.

“Why are you so clingy? You're like a child!” “Who says adults can’t be clingy?” he asked. “All right, let

me go first.

I need to bring Old Mrs.

Lester to the hospital.” “Okay.” He let her go obediently. Subsequently, he grabbed her hand and put

the diamond ring on her finger. “Don’t you ever lose itagain,” he reminded. “I won't.

I have to go.” She put her hand down. “I'll go and pick you up after you’re done.” After she nodded in

response, he loweredhis head to plant a kiss on her lips. Her lips are so soft! Kathleen's cheeks flushed

red as she said bashfully, “What are you doing? We're at the gates of someone else's place.” “So

what? We're a couple.

Isn't it normal for couples to kiss?” Samuel curled his lips into a smile and gazed at her lovingly before

saying, “Go ahead.” “All right.

See you.” She turned and got into the car that was parked by the side. Betty and Yvonnewere already

waiting in the car. Kathleen waved at him through the window and watched as he hopped into his car

as well. Tyson asked, “Where are we going, Mr.

Macari?”

“Let’s go to Lester Group.
