Divorce Anxiety
Chapter 32

Everyone was very surprised to know that it was Samuel's voice.Calvin cast him a side glance.What isthis? A certain sense of possessiveness?“Of course, Mr. Bach. It's my pleasure.” Kathleen offered herhand to Johann.Happily, the latter took her hand and shook it.Then, he went out with his team.Onceagain, everyone had their eyes on Samuel and Kathleen.Why did Samuel object to that?Calvinstarted to give out instructions. “Simon, prepare an evening gown for Kathleen. Also, set anappointment with a make-up artist.""Yes, sir.” Simon nodded.Samuel turned to look at Calvin calmly.“Dad, what is this about?"“Kathleen wants to go to the banquet. I'm helping her with the eveninggown.” He continued darkly, “Ever since you and Kate... In short, Kate has her own freedom. Shedoesn't need you to control her life.”"Samuel’s face darkened.Meanwhile, Kathleen looked at Calvinwith admiration.No wonder he’s the father of the bossy director!Subsequently, Samuel narrowed hiseyes at her.He noticed that she was wearing a beautiful outfit that day. It complimented her skin in away that showed her fair and unblemished complexion.Moreover, she had a sweet and innocentsmile.When he arrived, he saw that everyone had their eyes on her.lt made him extremelydispleased."Kate, let's go to my office. You need to jot down the translations and print them outbefore handing them to me,” Calvin said coolly.“Sure!” She was more than willing to follow him.Idon't want to see Samuel's darkened expression. He makes it look like I've owed him five

million! Calvin took Kathleen to leave the place.Samuel, meanwhile, looked at her retreating backwith a cold expression in his eyes. He was displeased. When Kathleen was in Calvin's office, shetyped the translations down. Then, she printed the document out and gave it to him.After perusingit for a while, the man said, “You've done a good job. When did you learn Granatanolan?"How canwe not know that she’s fluent in this?"Dad, have you forgotten about it? My parents were in themedical field. They needed to translate the foreign materials themselves. When I was young, Ialways spent time with my father reading journals. Thus, I learned it little by little,” she explained.Henodded. “If your parents are still alive, it's possible that you will also be a doctor after being raised inthat kind of environment."However, she disagreed with his remarks. “I don't want to become adoctor now."When she sat for her university entrance exam, she could choose medical as heruniversity course.Nevertheless, she gave up on the idea in the end.Unable to face the trauma oflosing her parents, she knew that she would not be able to even hold the scalpel. If she were toforce herself, it could bring trouble for the patients.It was also the reason why she chose to enroll inthe film academy.Nonetheless, she gave up the acting career as well.Fortunately, she would stillhave many options on how to live her life even if she were to get a divorce.Thus, she was notworried at all.Calvin said, “Why don’t you go and have some rest? We can go to the banquettogether after I've finished my work."Kathleen nodded. “Okay. I'll take my leave."Suddenly, he asked,“Is this your first time in the company?“Again, she nodded faintly. “Yes.”"Why don't you go to therooftop? It's a very interesting place.” Calvin started to recommend her places to go.She let out afaint smile and said, “All right."Having said that, she left the room.Calvin sighed. What an innocentand naive daughter-in-law! It will be a waste if she falls for someone else.Finally, Kathleen arrived atthe rooftop.She did not expect that the view would be so beautiful. Moreover, they built a smallgarden with flowers and trees. There was also a small pond with colorful fish.This is incredible. Nowonder Dad told me that the view on the rooftop is interesting. Unfortunately, I didn't bring any fishpellets or bread. If I had, I could feed the fish here. It's fascinating that they are all sparkling underthe sunlight. After that, she put her hands together and closed her eyes. “Dear lucky fishes, I praythat my divorce with Samuel will be successful. If it goes well, I will feed you the premium fishpellets.”"Your wish won't come true.” Samuel's voice was cold and menacing.Stunned, Kathleenstood up and turned to look at him. When he was approaching her, the aura that he was exudingwas cold and ruthless. It could be because he had worn a black shirt and a pair of blacktrousers.With a frown, she said, “Why? It can’t be because they only listen to you.”He snorted.Then,he sat down and took out a bag of fish pellets. After that, he threw the pellets into the pond.in asplit second, the school of fish swam to eat the food.”I'm the one who raises them. If they can makeyour wish come true, I will cook them,” he said coldly.Kathleen was at a loss for words.”l don'tbelieve it.” Grabbing a handful of fish pellets from the bag in his hand, she threw them into thepond.Weirdly enough, the fish dispersed immediately.Again, she was rendered speechless. “What isthere to be afraid of? He wouldn't dare to eat you even after cooking you."The school of fish swamfurther away.At that time, she began to doubt herself.Can they actually understand what I'm saying?Upon seeing her frustration and angry expression, Samuel felt his mood becomingbetter.Subsequently, he grabbed a handful of fish pellets and threw it again into the pond.The fishswam back happily.Kathleen’s mouth twitched in anger.”Even the fish bullies me.” Her voice was softand meek even when she was angry.It would only make people like her even more."Why are youhere?” Samuel asked icily.Gently, she explained, “You don't have to remind me about it. I rememberthat you told me not to come to the company. But Dad needs an interpreter who speaksGranatanolan. Thus, here I am. Besides, I didn’t go to see you. Moreover, I didn't reveal ourrelationship and my identity. You don't have to worry. In fact, I'm more afraid to let other peopleknow than you.""Why are you afraid?” He frowned.”If we can get a divorce quietly, no one elseknows that I will have a second marriage except my husband.” She continued sullenly, “If everyoneknows that we're married, they will know that I will be married for the second time later in thefuture. I'm not stupid to cause unnecessary trouble for myself.”"He was annoyed to hear herrepeating the words again and again. She keeps mentioning a second marriage. It's as if she hasfound a candidate to replace me!Then, he said indifferently, “That Johann is a pervert. You can'tdance with him.""Haha! I can't say for sure that he’s a pervert. But don't you think that you shouldmind your own business?” Kathleen frowned. “We will be divorced soon. Now that you will be myex-husband, you don't have the right to stop me from dancing with other men. Will you still controlmy life after our divorce? Who gives you the right to do so?"Samuel was furious.After throwing allthe fish pellets into the pond, he grabbed her arm. With an icy tone, he warned, “I don't have theright to control your life? Kathleen, let me tell you something. Even if we are divorced, I'm still yourfamily. Thus, I can control your lifel"She retorted angrily, “Samuel, are you insane? I can tell you thisAfter we get a divorce, I will think of everyone as my family except you! There's nothing between usafter we divorce. Don't even think of having a relationship with me. I refuse to let you—"Before shecould finish her sentence, Samuel had pressed his lips against hers.However, they did not know thata helicopter had flown by just in the nick of time.There was a photographer inside the helicopter. Onthat particular day, he was there to take photos of the view of the city.It was a collaboration with atelevision station to do live streaming. As such, he managed to capture the image of Samuel kissingKathleen.Instantly, that footage went viral on the internet.
