Chapter 191 Put An End To Kathleen

"Alright. Charles, you can stop worrying about that now. Now, let's talk about Vivian. I heard thatshe managed to recognize you today,” Kathleen stated.Charles nodded in response Kathleenstroked her chin and said, “That's good. That means there are times when she’s clear-minded.""Butshe started shrieking soon after that,” Charles said worriedly.“Follow me to the Lewis residencetomorrow. We'll take a look together,” Kathleen suggested.Charles nodded and replied, “Okay."Hereally wanted to cure Vivian.After all, a kind-hearted girl like her shouldn't be wasting her life likethis.Kathleen patted his shoulder and said, “Charles, you should go home and get some sleep.”Witha darkened expression, Charles reminded in a worried tone, “Okay, I'll take my leave. Take good careof yourself. Call me if there's anything.”Kathleen was amused. “This is a hospital. What couldpossibly happen? You're too alert.”Even then, Charles was still worried. “I can’t help it. The Yoegerfamily has been too active lately."Kathleen said seriously, “Don’t worry. Nothing will happen.”*Okay.”Charles was persuaded by her, so he got up and prepared to leave.He calmly continued, “I'll getgoing now and be back tomorrow.” Charles, I want to be discharged tomorrow and return to thefilm site to see that person called Jennifer,” Kathleen said meaningfully.After giving it some thought,Charles said, “I guess it's better to get things resolved as soon as possible so that it doesn’t getmore complicated."Kathleen nodded.Charles turned around and left.Soon after, Kathleen got readyto sleep.The next day, Kathleen was preparing to get discharged.She planned to head straight to thefilm site.Valerie came to help her pack up and accompany her to the film site.Right when Kathleengot out of the restroom after changing, she saw Christopher.Surprised, she called, “Chris?"Why is hehere?Christopher calmly said, “Hey. I heard something happened to you when I wasn't inJadeborough for the past few days, so I rushed here to pay you a visit. Are you feelingbetter?”Kathleen stretched her waist a little and replied, “Don’t worry. My condition’s much betternow."“I saw the news online. You were injured quite severely,” he said worriedly.Kathleen smilinglyreassured, “I'm really fine now.”He stared into her eyes and said, “Okay. I'm glad to hear that you'reokay."With a gentle smile, Kathleen said, “Chris, thank you for visiting me. However, I'm goingstraight to the film site after being discharged, so..."Feeling helpless, he replied, “Alright, goahead.”Kathleen called for Valerie, and they both got ready to leave.In a raspy voice, Christophersuggested, “Kate, let me send you there.”Kathleen was stunned. “Theres no need to trouble you."Hewalked toward her and said, “It's no trouble at all. There's something I need to talk to youabout."Reluctantly, she nodded. “Okay. "They went downstairs together.After that, Kathleen got intoChristopher's car.Throughout the journey, Christopher remained silent.He seemed to be mentallypreparing what he was about to say.After arriving at the film site, Christopher finally started tospeak.He asked in a hoarse voice, “Are you sure you don't want to date me?"Once again, Kathleenwas caught off guard by his words.In actuality, she could sense that Christopher was going toconfess to her.She gripped the hem of her shirt and lowered her head. “Chris, I'm sorry."Christophersaid bitterly, “In the end, I still lost to Samuel.”Kathleen shook her head and remarked, “Chris, I won'tbe with Samuel. I've already rejected him."He stared intently at Kathleen and questioned, “Why?"Sheexplained, “Why would I give another chance to someone who has hurt me before? Even thoughhe’s now aware of what he did wrong and has fixed his mistake, the trauma I suffered will always bethere.”Christopher asked, “Will he... give up on you?“In a grim voice, she uttered, “It doesn't matterto me whether he gives up or not. He knows that he'll drive me to the brink of death if he forcesme."Christopher remembered the wedding ceremony from a year before Kathleen fell into despairand really felt like dying.She’s right. Samuel would never force her to that extent anymore.With adeep voice, he said, “Kate, then why are you not considering me? The reason I left was to deal withAstrid. I've already settled my family problems as well. Except for Grandpa, both Mom and Dad willaccept you. You don't have to care about what Grandpa thinks.”She gazed at his handsome face andreplied, “Chris, putting all these aside, the ultimate reason is that I don’t love you."He was renderedspeechless.She continued, “I know how well you treat me. That's precisely why I've been rejectingyou over and over again. I can't compromise. Compromising is a painful thing to do. I don’t want usto end up being an unhappy couple and ruin the chance to even become friends."l really don't wantthings to end up that way.Christopher mocked himself, “Am I not good enough?“Kathleen bit herlips and said, “You... are good. However, liking someone doesn't correlate to how good a person is.It depends on how you feel about that person. Everyone defines their feelings differently. From mypoint of view, no matter how good a person is, if that person doesn't make my heart race, then thatperson's not the one. So don't you think it's better to make things clear right from thebeginning?"With a look of defeat, Christopher glanced at her and said, “You're too honest."There'snothing I can do about her honesty. I wish she would give me just a glimmer of hope, but she hasended all possibilities.”Did I rush it too much? Maybe I should've waited. I should've waited until yourealize that there's a good guy like me by your side. Wouldn't you choose me then?"Kathleenpursed her lips. “I don't know what's going to happen in the future, but I've already told you how Ifeel.”He sighed and said, “What am I going to do with you?"Feeling awkward, Kathleen said, “Chris,I'm sorry. If you don't feel comfortable about it, you can sever ties with me. I won't mind."He saidsolemnly, “But I would. I don't want to lose you... as a friend.”Kathleen felt awkward.“Go ahead. I'mnot going to bother you any longer."“Okay.” Kathleen nodded.She opened the car door and got offthe car.Christopher fell into deep thought as he watched her leave.Kathleen let out a heavysigh.What's with this situation? It's all Charles" fault. If he didn’t announce Christopher as my fiancéback then, there wouldn't be so many problems. Kathleen felt a headache coming.Meanwhile, thefilm crew was shocked to see Kathleen.Everyone came up to her to ask about her bodycondition.She explained, “My body's fine now. Thank you, everyone, for your concerns.”Afterobserving for some time, she noticed that everyone was concerned about her exceptJennifer.Something’s wrong with this woman indeed.Upon seeing Kathleen, Jennifer was inshock.Wasn't Kathleen severely injured? How can she be back to continue filming? How?Amurderous glint flashed across Jennifer's eyes. guess I'll just have to end her life again! I'll put anend to her no matter what! This time for sure!
