Divorce Anxiety
Chapter 131

When Kathleen woke up, she found that it was already the next morning.She pinched between hereyebrows lightly. There was a bottle of sleeping pills on the bedside table.At this moment, there wasa knock on the door, followed by Charles’ voice. “Kate, are you awake? Can I go in?"“Come in.”Kathleen let out a yawn as she sat up on the bed.Charles pushed open the door and came into theroom. “There's an audition today.”“Okay.” Kathleen hugged the pillow while she was in adaze.Charles glanced at the bottle of sleeping pills on the bedside table. He asked anxiously, “Didyou have a headache again?"“Yes. I couldn't fall asleep last night, so I took two pills.” Kathleennodded lazily.Charles clenched his fists. “You've already taken two?"“The doctor said that therewouldn't be a problem for me to increase the dose. Don't worry,” replied Kathleen in a lazy voice."Isit because of Samuel? This is why I want him to stay away from you!” said Charles solemnly.Kathleenput on a faint smile. “Charles, it's no use running away from him. The doctor has said that it's apsychological issue. I'll have to get over it."Charles let out a sigh. “However, it's him who has causedyou the trauma.”’I'm the one who doesn’t have a strong mentality. It's not his fault. Charles, youshouldn't overthink it. Samuel and I are even now. Just think of him as a normal person,” saidKathleen calmly."Okay, I promise you.” Charles nodded.“I'm awake now. Wait for me downstairs.” AsKathleen had just yawned, her eyes looked gentle and misty.”Okay.” Charles got up and

left Kathleen stretched her arms.She walked toward the window, wanting to draw the curtains andlet the sunlight shine in.However, she immediately closed the curtains the moment she openedthem.No! Samuel's living on the opposite. I have to be aware of that pervert!Ding!Suddenly, herphone rang.She picked it up and found that it was Samuel who had messaged her.Samuel: “Whenwill you be free to cook for me?”Kathleen was stunned as she had completely forgotten about thismatter.Samuel: “Did you forget about it?"Kathleen felt guilty.Kathleen: “I have an audition to attendtoday. I'll cook for you in the afternoon.”Samuel: “Do you need me to prepare anyingredients?”Kathleen: “It's fine. I'll bring them from home.”Samuel: “The access code is yourbirthday. If I'm not around, you can go in first."Kathleen was at a loss for words.She decided not toreply to Samuel further and went to take a bath instead.Charles drove Kathleen to the castinglocation in his Bentley.They arrived at the Macari Group building.Kathleen looked at Charles andsaid, “Charles, are you sure this is the right location?"“Yes. Kathleen, he’s stuck on you like a piece ofgum,” answered Charles as he unfastened his seatbelt.Kathleen was speechless.They got out of thecar together.Dressing in a black suit with a dark grey color coat, Charles looked elegant andhandsome.Kathleen was in a pale yellow cashmere coat and a pair of white wide-legged pants,looking adorable and charming.When she smiled, her eyes crinkled up, and her adorable teeth wereshown. Looking particularly joyous, she was a likable lady at first glance.She was sweet anddelicate.They entered the lobby.Tyson walked over and said, “Mr. Johnson, Ms. Johnson, I've waitedfor a long time for both of you."Charles let out a light snort.Kathleen tugged at his sleeves.Charleslooked at Tyson and explained, “I'm not targeting you. It's your CEO who's being inhumane."Tysonkept quiet. He has a point. I can't argue with that."Please follow me,” said Tyson whileflushing.Kathleen and Charles followed him.The three of them took the elevator and arrived at thetop floor.Kathleen couldn't help but ask, “Mr. Hackney, where's the audition?"“It's in the CEO'soffice,” answered Tyson.Kathleen pursed her lips.Charles’ voice was cold as he said quietly, “Yousee?”Isn't Samuel such a jerk?Kathleen took a deep breath and said, “I owe it to him."Just then, theyarrived at the CEO's office. Tyson opened the door and guided them in.There were three peoplesitting on the couch in the office.One of them was Samuel, while the other two people wereSpencer, the director, and Remy, the screenwriter. All of them were looking at Kathleen.She worevery light makeup that day. It was evident that she had a good complexion.This movie required theactress to be barefaced in many scenes. Hence, her appearance and skin had to be in goodcondition.Kathleen didn't undergo any plastic surgery, so her natural beauty was even more suitablefor the role.”Please have a seat.” Samuel grinned as he looked at her.She looks so cutetoday.Kathleen ignored him. She sat down and greeted Remy and Spencer.Both of them thoughtthat she looked shockingly beautiful at first glance.As for acting skills, they had confidence inher.After all, she had won the Academy Award for Best Actress.Even though the movie was a bigproduction, it was hard to say who would be leeching off the popularity.”Ms. Johnson, if there isn'tany problem, should we start the audition?” asked Spencer.”Okay.” Kathleen nodded. Feelingconfused, she asked, “Right here?"Spencer nodded and answered, “Yes."Remy passed her the script.“Try acting this part.”Kathleen took over the script. After looking through it, she was surprised. “So Ihave to perform without any props?”Remy smiled. “Of course not. It's too awkward for me and Cainto do it, so we have asked Samuel to help you."Kathleen was momentarily stunned. “But this is akissing scene. Even though the main actor is ill, there are quite a lot of kissing scenes."Charlesfrowned. This isn't really an intimate scene. All you have to do is to kiss the main actor's nose andlips. Ms. Johnson, you're an actress.” Remy showed her a meaningful smile Kathleen wasspeechless.Charles was about to lose his temper.Of course, he wasn't angry at Remy or Spencer butat Samuel.However, Samuel only furrowed his brows slightly as he didn't know about it.He didn’tsay anything either.”Fine. Then, can I have you cooperate with me, Mr. Macari?” Kathleen stoodup.“It's my pleasure.” Samuel's lips curled upward.”Lie down. Remember, you're an unconscious manwho has severe injuries,” said Kathleen coldly.”Okay.” Samuel lay down. He was 1.9 meters tall, sothe couch wasn't enough for his long and slender legs.He lay down with his eyes closed, looking likea painting.He was so elegant and reserved as if he was a deity.Kathleen sat beside him. She inhaleda deep breath as she held his hand."Why are you still unconscious?” Kathleen's voice was cold,carrying a sense of interrogation.In the scene, she was an assassin who had lost her memory.However, she was still slow in realizing her feelings.She fell in love with a scholar but was unaware ofit."People told me to kiss you if you're still unconscious. I've never heard about this kind of healingmethod. Have you heard of it before?"The scholar didnt reply.“I'll give it a try, then.” Kathleenapproached him.Samuel's elegant face was impeccable. His nose was sharp, and his lips were sexyand tempting.Kathleen pursed her lips. Then, her cherry red lips fell gently on his well-definednose.Samuel's heart was fluttering. It's ticklish!immediately after, he felt something soft on his lips,followed by a hint of pain.Kathleen was biting him.
