Chapter 304

Chapter 304 All My Fault On the wedding day, Kathleen was clad in a white wedding gown. Hermakeup was light, but it looked delicate and mesmerizing. However, although she was all smiles, thesmile didn't quite reach her eyes. Frances entered the room and sized Kathleen up. “You don't lookhappy at all.” Kathleen smiled faintly. “Granny, I am happy.” Frances let out a sigh. “Granny, Caleb isa great guy.” Kathleen hesitated for a moment before continuing, “After the wedding ceremony, I'llhave to replace Charles. He needs my help. I've asked for Caleb's help, and he'll take care of you.”Frances was shocked. “You are going to leave?” “Yes. Granny, after Charles and I settle down, we'llbring you over.”

Frances thought for a moment before nodding. “I know you don't like this place. It's okay. I've doneeverything I could for the Yoeger family. What's left in that family is no longer my business.” Herenergy and health were limited. Kathleen held her hand. “Granny, I'll continue to investigate theYoeger family’s matter.” Frances nodded. Just then, someone knocked on the door. It was one of thestaff members telling them it was time for the ceremony. “Let's go.” Frances grabbed Kathleen'shand. The latter's hand was slightly cold. It was the second time she had worn a wedding dress, butthis time, she didn’t wear it for the person she loved the most. However, it was just a ceremony, soshe did not mind.

As Kathleen walked down the red carpet, everyone gasped in unison when they saw her gorgeousappearance. She was a natural beauty. After she wore the wedding dress, she looked even moreelegant and noble. Standing at the other end of the aisle was Caleb. He was dressed in a whitetuxedo, looking dashing. When he saw Kathleen, his dark eyes lit up with amazement. Dragging thelong dress with her, Kathleen reached his side and whispered, “Mr. Lewis, the gown you chose tiresme out.” “You don't like it?” Caleb narrowed his eyes. “I've prepared two sets for you. Do you wantto change it?” She shook her head. “It's such a waste of money.” Caleb smiled. “It's nothing.” “Butwe're a fake couple,” she reminded in a low voice. Acting as though he didn't hear her, he held herhand and turned around to face the priest. The marriage officiant smiled. “Mr. Caleb Lewis, do youtake Ms. Kathleen Johnson to be your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, forricher, for poorer, until death do you part?” “I do.” Caleb's lips curled into a smile. The priest turnedtoward Kathleen. “Ms. Kathleen Johnson, do you take Mr. Caleb Lewis to be your lawful husband, tohave and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, until death do you part?” Kathleenlooked at the solemn priest. “I—" “She does not.” Samuel's cold, deep voice rang from behind. Thecrowd gasped. Kathleen clenched her fists. Why is he here? Caleb sneered. As expected, Samuel'scalmness was fake.

He's been waiting for this moment. Samuel walked over in long, confident strides, his facehandsome but frosty. He wore a black tuxedo that fitted him perfectly. Under his fringe, a certainemotion was surging within his deep, cold eyes. Caleb took a step forward, blocking Samuel.“Samuel, I didn't invite you, did 1?” As Samuel stopped in his tracks, he shot a stern look at Kathleen,bringing chills down her spine. The way he looked at her was as though he wanted to swallow heralive. “Kathleen, I know why you marry him.” Samuel's cold voice resonated through the hall. “Youdon't love him.” “Samuel, please get out of here!” Caleb frowned. “We don't welcome you here.”Kathleen stared back at him. “So what? It's fine as long as he loves me.” Samuel froze. “Samuel, stoppestering me,” she continued with a pained expression. “Can't you see that I'm suffering because ofyou?” “I've given you Melting Ice Grass,” Samuel responded gruffly. “You no longer have to beworried about being threatened by Blissful Sect. You can save your brother. What are you scared ofnow?" Kathleen bit her lip. “You know nothing!” Samuel pushed Caleb out of the way and grabbedher arm, speaking softly. “Why would I not know? The Watson family wants me dead, and you wantme to live. But listen to me, Kathleen. I won't die. If I need your sacrifice for me to be alive, I'd ratherdie.”

She froze. Why does he seem like he’s known everything? “Samuel, stop being so presumptuous.”Caleb strode over, trying to separate them. Samuel held onto Kathleen's wrist. “Tyson!” With that,Tyson came into the hall with his other subordinates. Caleb’s men wanted to fight back, but Samuelhad more people on his side. Meanwhile, other people at the scene dared not to speak up eventhough they were infuriated by Samuel and his subordinates. “Are you crazy?” Kathleen paled. Theviciousness in Samuel's eyes was intense, but he gazed at her gently. “Yes, I am.” She was soenraged that she trembled all over. “Samuel, what do you want?” “I want you not to marry him.”Samuel's gaze darkened. “I don't want you to sacrifice yourself for me.” She gritted her teeth. “Calebwas right. You are presumptuous. I don't love you, and I'm not sacrificing myself for you.” Samuelflashed her a wry smile. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “My grandfather killed WyattWatson's grandfather. One of them was a soldier, and one of them was an outlaw. They were swornenemies. Wyatt wants to avenge his grandfather's death, so he provokes me. He knows I care aboutyou the most. He also uses that kind of method to force you. Did you think I know none of these?”Kathleen was dumbfounded. How did he know about this? Seeing her widening her eyes in surprise,Samuel knew that his guess was right. “You don’t love me?” Samuel continued to fire questions ather. “You hate me to the core? Why do you want to protect me secretly then?” She gnawed on herlip. “I do not.” “You're so dishonest.” He grabbed her chin, a cold glint flashing across his eyes. “Aslong as you don't marry Caleb, I'll ask them to retreat now.” “What if I insist on marrying him?”Kathleen asked furiously. “Do you want to turn this wedding into a bloodbath?

If you dare to do that, I'll never forgive you! Ever!” Samuel smiled gently with a hint of melancholy."Katie, how can the hate between us dissipate? Ever since you came back, I know you don't love meanymore. If it weren't for my family, you would have shunned me. Am I right?” Kathleen's breathhitched in her throat. He continued, “When I was drugged by Yareli, you came back not because youloved me. It was because you felt that you were indebted to my family.” Complicated and twistedemotions filled his eyes. “But it's the Macari family who is indebted to you. My family caused you tolose your parents, and I caused you to lose your babies. It's all my fault.”
