Divorce Anxiety
Chapter 101

Tyson felt awkward. He would not dare to say that.The look in Samuel's eyes turned cold. “I'm notupset with you."Tyson froze. “Mr. Macari?"“I really missed out on too many things in those threeyears,” Samuel said as he pinched the bridge of his nose. “I've even asked you to go with her whenshe went for checkups at the hospital. Of course you'll know her better than I do.”It's me. I'm theone who pushed Kathleen away. I can't be upset with anyone about this.At that, Tyson mustered thecourage to say, “Mr. Macari, I think that, as long as she’s still alive, you still have a chance. Don't waituntil she’s gone before you really regret it. That will be too late.”Samuel turned to glance athim.”Honestly, Mrs. Macari has already said that she wants to live peacefully with you. Why don'tyou just say yes?” Tyson muttered gloomily. “Mrs. Macari has spent ten years to make you fall forher. You can do the same. Make her fall for you again.”Samuel frowned. “Make her fall for meagain?"“That's right. Although Mrs. Macari isn't how she used to be, you can put in more effort.Don't force your will onto her the way you used to. Consider what she wants,” Tysonexplained.”Okay, I got it.” Samuel nodded solemnly.”Mr. Macari, I've found some informationregarding the matter you asked me to look into.” Tyson put down the documents in his hands."Apparently, Mrs. Macari and Mr. Johnson have returned in search of their kin.”"What kin?" Samuelfrowned.”Mrs. Macari's parents are orphans,” Tyson started. “It seems that they wish to replace theirfamily. Mrs. Macari’s mother was adopted, but she has always wanted to look for her biologicalparents. According to my investigation, it seems likely that Mrs. Macari and the others have foundsome clues, and that's why they've returned.”Samuel kept staring at Tyson. So, Kathleen didn’t comeback because of Christopher, he mused.”What have they found?” he asked coldly."Mrs. Macari'smother seems to be the missing third daughter of the Yoeger family,” Tyson replied.”"What?" Samuelexclaimed, taken aback Kathleen's mother is the Yoeger family's third daughter? Is that whyKathleen looks so much like Nicolette? Is that why their bone marrows were a match?“What else didyou replace?” Samuel asked.”Nothing else. That is all,” Tyson mumbled. “Mrs. Macari will be attending abanquet tonight. Christopher will be there too.”"Make the arrangements. I'm going as well,” Samuelordered.“Understood.” Tyson nodded.Samuel's keen eyes then turned to look at the screen. As helooked at Kathleen's side profile, his chest ached.If I'd gotten Kathleen to attend Old Mrs. Yoeger'sbirthday celebration three years ago, would things have turned out differently? Would she not haveleft a year ago? As for the Yoeger family... I have a score to settle with them.At eight o'clock thatnight, Charles came to pick Kathleen up in a black Bentley.Kathleen was wearing an off-shouldermaxi bodycon with a slit that revealed her long fair legs.Kathleen was beautiful in a soft, tender way.However, the moment she dressed herself up, she looked absolutely alluring and exquisite.AsCharles looked at his sister, he said, “Who are you planning to seduce tonight?“Kathleen onlyflashed him a shy smile.She then leaned over to enter the car.Then, Charles drove them to thebanquet.”Vanessa is currently the one with the final say in the Yoeger family. Zachary may be theheir, but he's in poor health, so Vanessa is the one who makes most of the decisions,” Charlesexplained Kathleen knitted her brows. “Is Zachary Nicolette’s father?”“Yes.” Charles nodded inaffirmation.Hearing that, Kathleen fell silent.”Leave this to me if you want to take revenge on her,”Charles said to her in a cold tone. “I don't care who Samuel is. I'm going to cripple Nicolette andhand her over to you. I'm going to avenge my two nephews."Kathleen was quiet for a while. “Mygrievance with Nicolette can't be dismissed just like this. However, let's settle the issue regardingour history first. I'm afraid Samuel will stop us if we target Nicolette now. If that happens, we'll losemore than we gain.”True,” Charles agreed with a nod.After that, they went to a private club.The twoof them stepped out of the car.Kathleen hooked her arm around Charles’ before they entered thepremise. Almost immediately, everyone cast them inexplicable gazes.Charles had been keeping a lowprofile before that. It was only when Kathleen rose to fame did the others replace out that he wasKathleen's manager and the CEO of Astra Entertainment.On the other hand, Kathleen was an award-winning actress, Samuel's ex-wife, and Christopher's fiancée.To sum it up, her identity was quitecomplicated.Nevertheless, Samuel and the Macari family protected her well. She was rarely seen inpublic.One of the few times she ever appeared in public was when Samuel revealed their weddingphoto a year ago.Even now, Samuel still kept that post as his pinned tweet. He had never taken itdown.Charles led Kathleen to Vanessa. “Ms. Yoeger, hello."Vanessa Yoeger turned fifty thatyear.However, because of her strict skincare routine, she did not look a day over thirty-five.Vanessagave the siblings a long look. “So, this is Mr. Johnson and the award-winning best actress.””I'msurprised that you know us, Ms. Yoeger,” Charles said with a smile that did not reach his eyes. “Iheard you're interested in starting a business in red wine, Ms. Yoeger. What a coincidence! I have awinery in Belmonia. Ms. Yoeger, are you interested in working with me?“Vanessa narrowed her eyes.“Mr. Johnson, are you here for a business negotiation?"“Of course. Why else are we here for?”Kathleen smiled sweetly. No one could tell what she was truly feeling at that moment.As Vanessastared at Kathleen's pretty face, she uttered, “Ha. No matter.""Ms. Yoeger, shall we discuss this indetail?” Charles coolly asked.Vanessa nodded. “Okay."Charles peered at Kathleen and said, “I'll beright back.”"Sure.” Kathleen nodded at him.With that, Charles and Vanessa stepped aside for achat.Kathleen picked up a glass of wine and strolled around the place. Her gaze eventually landedon a middle-aged man.She strode over to him.”Mr. Pollard, is that you?” Kathleen smiled at him.lvanPollard turned around. “Are you Ms. Kathleen Johnson?” he said in pleasant surprise.Kathleenreplied, “I can't believe you know me, Mr. Pollard. What an honor!"“You're too humble, Ms. Johnson.Who wouldn't recognize you?” Ivan glanced at her meaningfully. “How can I help you, Ms.Johnson?"“I just want to have a chat with you, Mr. Pollard. May I have the honor?” Kathleenqueried.”Sure,” Ivan replied with a chuckle. “What would you like to talk about?"“A year ago, when Iwas in Ferropene, I was attacked by a gang,” Kathleen started with a gloomy look. “We caught oneof the attackers, who said that he was acting under your orders. I'd like to ask if I've offended you insome way."lvan froze.My men have been caught? I thought they were all dead! I can't believe someare still alive."Ms. Johnson, don't listen to their nonsense! This is slander!” Ivan fumed. “I do not holdany grudges against you, Ms. Johnson!"
