Chapter 375 Why Did You Save Me “I'm looking for something, but I forgot in which room I placedit. Ms. Cartwright, don’t mindme.

I'll leave after I finish searching,” Kathleen explained indifferently. She had checked allthe cabinetsand even the bathrooms. Yet, she found nothing. Dorothy wore an unfathomable grin as shequestioned, “Have you found it?” Kathleen shook her head. Meanwhile, Samuel's men came backfrom searching around the house too, yet they did not manage to replace anything. A cold grin flashedacross Kathleen's beautiful face. “Since I couldn't replace it, I'll stop searching around. I hope youwouldn't mind, Ms. Cartwright.” Dorothy stared at Kathleen for a long while. When she came andsaw me just now, she didn't even mention anything about Zion. This lady is merely in her twenties,yet she could stay this composed. She's truly a prudent person. Dorothy came to a realization thatshe had met a strong opponent. “Let's go.” Kathleen turned to Samuel. He replied with a nod. Then,they came out of Dorothy's room. At the same time, Zachary had rushed back too. Infuriated, heasked anxiously, “What's going on? Yareli told me that this mansion has become yours.” “Grannyhad that written in her will. When she got married to Old Mr. Yoeger back then, he had given thehouse to Granny. The owner's name of this property had already been changed to Granny's a longtime ago,” Kathleen explained without a tinge of emotions. “What?” Zachary was startled."According to Granny's will, this house will be given to me.” After a brief pause, Kathleen continued,"Oh, you will get a little share of it.” Zachary frowned. “I don't trust you!" “That's up to you, then. Ifyou think there are any issues with the will, you can always replace yourself a lawyer. I'm ready to go tocourt.” Hearing that, Zachary knew that Kathleen must have hired a lawyer. He supposed that thelawyer she engaged was most likely Samuel's mother, Wynnie. Wynnie was an outstanding lawyer,and she had never lost in any cases. Gnashing his teeth, Zachary exclaimed, “My father shouldn'thave married her back then!” “Haha! The Yoeger family was begging her to marry your father. Yourfamily was so incapable. Besides, my granny didn't claim your things as her own. Back then, sheeven allowed you guys to manage the company on your own, but you guys messed it up. Mygranny helped the company through the crisis with her dowry and saved the Yoeger family'sreputation from being tarnished. Not only that you're not grateful for her contribution, but you evenmade such a remark about her. How shameless!” Kathleen taunted mercilessly. “You!” Zachary wasfuming. Kathleen smiled contemptuously and added, “Of course, if you like this house that much, Ican sell it to you at a lower price. Even if Granny did give it to me, I don't feel like moving in. Afterall, a bunch of vengeful ghosts has lived here before. I'm afraid that I'll have nightmares.” Zacharyfelt the rage pulsing through his veins. He reached out and wanted to grab Kathleen's wrist. Samuelstrode forward and stopped right before Zachary. His voice was cold as he questioned, “What areyou trying to do?” Zachary felt a sense of guilt. In truth, Zachary only dared to lay his hand onKathleen because she was a woman. Yet, Samuel was better than him in terms of strength andphysique. Zachary backed down sheepishly in an instant. Kathleen reached out to pull Samuel'ssleeve. “Don't care about him. Let's go.” Samuel grabbed Kathleen's hand in turn. Nodding, he leftwith Kathleen. When they walked past Yareli, the latter's gaze fell upon their hands that claspedtightly together. A ferocious look flitted across Yareli's eyes. Kathleen and Samuel walked out of thehouse. The former's face grew solemn. “Why couldn't we replace him?” “She probably hid Zionsomewhere else,” explained Samuel. Kathleen gave him a slight nod as she pondered over thatpossibility. It's possible. Perhaps, we can only get someone to keep an eye on Dorothy all day. “Let'sgo.” Kathleen let out a sigh. After taking a few steps forward, Samuel questioned, “That car belongsto Dorothy, right?” Kathleen stopped in her tracks and stared at the car in front of the garage. “Ithink so.” Samuel's gaze darkened as he pulled Kathleen over. Baffled, Kathleen blinked and asked,"What's wrong?” “Open the trunk,” Samuel instructed his subordinates. They came over, got thetools needed, and were ready to pry open it. Just then, Dorothy hastily ran out of the mansion.Kathleen's eyes darkened as realization dawned upon her. After they opened the trunk, they sawZion lying inside. His face was a white as a sheet. Kathleen placed her hand under his nose. “He'sstill breathing.” Samuel instantly carried Zion out from the trunk and headed to his own car whileKathleen followed behind him. After taking a few steps, she stopped next to Dorothy. “At the end ofthe day, both of you are related by blood. What could you gain from using him?” Dorothy's faceturned pale. A sense of aloofness shrouded Kathleen as she turned around and left. Then, Kathleengot into the car. Samuel immediately drove to the hospital. As soon as they arrived at the hospital,the doctor began the emergency treatment at once. Fortunately, the doctor managed to save Zion.Kathleen and Samuel went to visit him in the ward. At that moment, Zion was awake. Staring atKathleen, he asked in a hoarse voice, “Why did you save me?” Kathleen looked at him impassively. “Ifeel sorry for you.” Zion replied dismissively, “I don't need you to pity me. I only want to die.”Kathleen grabbed his hand and took the crumpled flower in his palm. “Why?” Zion paused for asecond. “Did Desi give this to you?” asked Kathleen. Zion threw it away. “I took it somewhererandomly.” “You don't actually wish to die, right? If you want to live, then stop with this attitude ofyours! If not, I'll end you before Dorothy and the others make their moves!” Kathleen threatenedapathetically. Zion was stunned. “As a doctor, I only want to save those who have the will to live. Ifyou don't, I'll leave right now.” Zion remained silent. “Let's go, Samuel!” Kathleen tugged at Samueland was about to leave. Right then, Kathleen felt someone gripping the edge of her shirt. Shelooked down and stared at Zion. Zion's voice sounded raspy as he confessed, “I... don't want to die,but they will never let me go. I will only bring you a lot of trouble.” “Well, trouble is the last thing Ifear.” Kathleen's brows settled into a deep frown. “Kathleen, I'm not related to the Hoover family.My mom didn't get pregnant back then. She adopted me from somewhere,” Zion cried miserably.Kathleen was taken aback. “What did you say?” “I'm telling the truth. They only used me becausethere's something unique about my body. In order to treat that person, they fed me a lot ofmedicines. But I managed to survive. Actually, there were a few others who underwent the drugtrials, but all of them died. I'm the only one who survived.” Kathleen could not believe what she hadjust heard. “Are you for real?” Zion nodded. “Yes. Please be careful, Kathleen. I heard from Grandpathat Desi's body is unique too, and the Hoover family is targeting her now. That was why I thoughtDesi would be safe if I went instead.”
