Divorce Anxiety
Chapter 130

Diana buried her face in her hands. “Why is he so shameless?”Kathleen snatched the phone fromCharles and assured, “Old Mrs. Macari, ignore Charles. It's normal for Samuel to have manyproperties. Just let him live wherever he wants.”“Katie, you don't have to speak up for him,” Dianasaid exasperatedly. “That son of a gun. He never inherited the genes of loving his wife from theMacari family. And now, he's regretting it.""Perhaps his genes mutated,” Charles suggested."That'spossible. Who knows, he might not even be a child of the Macari family,” Diana fumed.Kathleenglared at Charles before telling Diana, “Everything's fine now, Old Mrs. Macari. Sorry for interruptingyour rest." There's nothing you have to apologize for. I'll give that grandson of mine an earful now.”Diana hung up the call angrily.Right then, Charles laughed out loud.Seeing his response, Kathleenfrowned. “Charles, did you lose to Samuel earlier?ls that why you went looking for Old Mrs.Macari?"“Me? Losing to him? What a joke!” Charles denied."Fine, I give up. You're too childish.”Kathleen stood up.“Katie, you must not feel sorry for him, okay?” Charles reminded.Kathleen wasspeechless, and she turned around to head upstairs.She entered her room and looked at thebalcony opposite hers.So, is he watching me from the other side today?Meanwhile, Samuel wassitting in his room. Right then, he saw Kathleen's room lights turned on.Kathleen's silhouette couldbe seen through the curtains.She seemed to be looking in his direction motionlessly.”Samuel, didyou hear what I said?” Diana asked sternly.”l heard you.” Samuel's voice was indifferent. “Grandma,you can stop talking now. I won't listen to you. I'm pursuing her.”“But she doesn't like youanymore,” Diana reminded. “Ever since Katie came back, did she show any signs of wanting toremarry you?"“No,” Samuel said flatly. “But that's not important. Feelings can grow. This time, I'mnever letting her fall into another man’s hands.”"Aren’t you afraid of making things worse byconstantly pestering her? Samuel, I'm giving you my advice so that you won't make Kathleen hateyou. Otherwise, you won't even get the chance to be her friend. Do you understand what I said?”Diana said calmly.Samuel remained silent, for the silhouette on the opposite window moved.His lipsslightly curved into a smile. I never knew that watching her silhouette in silence like that was such ahappy thing.”l understand, Grandma,” Samuel responded faintly. “I didn't do anything,anyway."“Things like that depend on fate. If you and Katie are fated to be together, the heavens willhelp you out. Otherwise, nothing would come out of it no matter how you force it,” Diana saidseriously.Samuel smiled. “Grandma, how do you know if we are fated to be together or not? Backthen, God let me live and didn’t take me to him. And now, she’s back in the country after a year. Ibelieve that fate brought us together.”Diana stayed silent.Samuel was too obstinate.”Samuel, I'llnever forgive you if you break Katie's heart again,” Diana said in a deep voice. “Her parents died tosave me back then. Otherwise, she'd still have parents to protect her. Do you understand?"Dianaalways felt guilty about that matter.”Grandma, I love her. Don't worry. I'll never let her feel aggrievedagain.” With that, Samuel ended the call right away because he saw Kathleen standing on thebalcony. She was holding a metal clothing rail and wanted to knock on his window.What's shedoing?He walked over to the large window and opened it, asking coldly, “Are you looking forme?“Kathleen nodded.”"What is it?” Samuel's thin, seductive lips curled to form a smile. “Why didn'tanyone open the door when I pressed on your doorbell earlier? Where's your housekeeper?”Kathleen asked.”I live alone.” Samuel stared at her intently. “I was talking to my grandma on thephone just now. That's why I didn't hear it. What's up?”“Something from my house flew into yourbackyard. Could you please open the door? I'll go and get it.” Kathleen's cheeks were slightlyflushed.”It's okay. I'll get it and pass it to you over the balcony,” Samuel said.”No! No! No!" Kathleenshook her head frantically. “I'll get it myselfl"Samuel was puzzled. “What exactly is thatthing?“Kathleen's cheeks reddened.”Your bottoms?” Samuel asked discreetly.Kathleen blushed evenmore.Looks like I'm right.Samuel smiled faintly. “I'll help you get it."Kathleen bit her lip.This manmust be doing it on purpose.A wicked look flashed across Samuel's eyes as he left thebalcony.Several moments later, he reappeared on the balcony with something white in hishands.Kathleen panicked. “G-Give it back to me!"“How did this land in my backyard?” Samuelasked.”It was the wind. My house's laundry room is next to your backyard. The second the windblew, it flew over. Anyway, just give it back to me!” Kathleen urged.Her face was as red as atomato.Samuel smirked. “What are you ashamed of? Didn't I see these things all the time backthen?"Kathleen glared at him. “That's the past. I've got nothing to do with you now. Hurry up andgive it back to me!”"Samuel flashed a charming smile when he noticed her anxious gaze. “Give meyour clothing rail."Hearing that, Kathleen followed his instructions obediently.Samuel hung herundergarment on it. With a flushed face, Kathleen quickly retracted the clothing rail and removedher undergarment from it.I hope you don’t mind me touching it.” Samuel smirked.”I'll wash itagain!” Kathleen bit her lip.”It's good to be hygienic.” Samuel smiled. “By the way, it feels quite soft,just like you."“Pervert! Jerk!” Kathleen hollered.Samuel chuckled. “Will something bigger fly overnext time?“Kathleen glared at him.”l can't determine if your measurements have changed or not.Based on my observation, they look about the same as they were in the past,” Samuel mutteredwith a meaningful smile.”Pervert!” Kathleen yelled before turning around to leave.She then slammedthe balcony door shut with a bang.Samuel stood on his balcony, watching her lock the door andpull the curtains.He continued gazing at her door intently while licking his thin lips. “Howcute."Meanwhile, Kathleen returned to the bathroom and threw her undergarment into thebasin.”D*mn it! D*mn it! D*mn it!" She scrubbed the fabric furiously.Why do I get angry so easilywhenever I see Samuel? When I was in the hospital, I was his roommate. When I came home, hebecame my neighbor. Even my undergarment wanted to bully me by drifting to his backyard.Shehad done her best to get along with him.Yet, Samuel constantly agitated her and disrupted thepeace in her heart.That was how things had always been between them.He always acted however hewanted. When he was in a good mood, he would treat her exceptionally well, no matter if shewanted it or not. When he was in a bad mood, he would treat her badly, without showing her anounce of compassion. Basically, he was a jerk At that moment, Kathleen had the urge to breakdown.Her head hurt so badly from all the thoughts.
