Kathleen cast him a frosty gaze. “While Ashley has plotted many schemes, I'd still like tocongratulate you, Samuel. You're going to become a dad.”Samuel frowned. “What did yousay?“"What does she mean, I'm becoming a dad?"Ashley’s pregnant. Congratulations, once again.”Kathleen smiled. Then, her gaze darkened, and she turned around to leave.Pregnant?Samuel wantedto stop her and make her explain herself.Alas, Kathleen left without looking back.Samuel side-eyedAshley. “I never touched you. How did you get pregnant?“Ashley’s eyes darted around the room,looking extremely uneasy. “I... Samuel, I really love you. I didn't want Kathleen to keep pesteringyou, so I lied to her."Bang!Samuel slammed his hand on the table, his eyes bloodshot. “Do you havea death wish?"After saying that, he turned on his heel and walked away.”Samuel!” Ashley cried. “Didyou even lose your memory?“Samuel glared at her coldly. “Yes.”Ashley questioned furiously, “Then,why do you still like her? I took care of you for three months. Were you not moved by my actionsduring that period? Not even the slightest bit?"Samuel’s expression remained frosty. “Are youworthy?"Ashley was stumped.” was not attracted to you the moment you stopped me from seeingmy family. Only a guilty person would stop someone from doing so,” the man stated aloofly.Ashleystared at him, stunned.She only wanted to wait till their relationship stabilized before letting Samuelmeet other people. Never did she expect to have shot herself in the foot.”I'll take this scheme you'veplotted as a repayment for the time you saved me from being kidnapped. We're even now. I don'towe you anything.” Samuel's voice was cold.He left after he spoke.Tears fell from Ashley's eyes asshe watched him leave. Her plan failed.D*mn it! My plan would've been perfect if Kathleen didn'tcause a disruption.Samuel exited the building where the engagement ceremony was held and gotinto the car. “Where did Kathleen go?” he asked.”No idea.” The driver shook his head."Drive!”Samuel took out his phone to call Tyson. “Find out where Kathleen has gone!"“Mr. Macari, Mrs.Macari is on the way to the airport now. Mr. Eil and Ms. Desi are already there waiting for her,”Tyson said awkwardly.Samuel’s gaze darkened. What? She's leaving? How could she abandon melike that?Drive faster!” he ordered.”Got it!" The driver immediately hit the gas pedal. Meanwhile, atthe airport, Kathleen held Desiree’s hand and slowly walked toward the boarding gate."Mommy,where are we going?” the little girl asked curiously.She had never left the country before.”Pollerton. Iwant to let you and Eil see the place. I have a huge winery there. It's just like a castle,” Kathleenanswered gently."You have a castle, so that means you're a queen. Does that mean I'm a princess?”Desiree asked excitedly.Kathleen beamed. “You're still a princess, even if I'm not a queen.”Desireechuckled at her words. Suddenly, she asked solemnly, “Mommy, will we come back?"Kathleenmerely held her hand without giving an answer.By that time, Levi and Eilam had passed through thegate Kathleen and Desiree were next.The moment Kathleen handed the two flight tickets to theflight attendant, Samuel's husky voice could be heard from their backs. “Kate!"Desiree turnedaround and exclaimed, “Mommy, it's Daddy!"Kathleen pursed her lips but did not turn back."Kate,I...” Samuel cleared his throat. “I'm sorry. I've never done anything with Ashley. Even if she’spregnant, that child isn't mine. I never wanted to be engaged to her. I just hoped you still cared forme, even if it's just a little."Kathleen took a deep breath. Still, she did not turn around.”Kate, I expectnothing else. Don't go, please?” Samuel choked.Everyone in the airport was watching them.Theyknew who Kathleen and Samuel were.Samuel fixed his eyes on her slender figure. “Don't go,” heurged once more.To his dismay, Kathleen looked at the flight attendant. “Are you done examiningthe documents?“The flight attendant answered awkwardly, “Yes."Hearing that, Kathleen took thetickets from the flight attendant and entered the gate while pulling Desiree’s hand.Samuel's hearttensed up as he watched Kathleen leaving mercilessly.His forehead was drenched in sweat.Suddenly,his vision darkened, and he slumped to the ground.Tyson rushed over and carried Samuel to thehospital. The next day, Kathleen, who was already in Pollerton, tucked the children into bed beforegiving Rory a call."Tyson took Marjory away. Apparently, the Macari family wants to investigate thismatter. Ashley will be done for once Marjory mentions her name,” Rory answered grimly.”l see. Letthem take her away, then,” Kathleen responded flatly.”And that man, Ronald, I heard Trevorabandoned him. Ronald says Trevor's the mastermind, and the latter made him frame you. However,he has no proof. Everyone here doesn't really believe him,” Rory added.”He’s just a pawn. Thisoutcome is already his punishment. We can forget about him already,” Kathleen remarkedcoldly."One more thing...” Rory sounded hesitant. “Dr. Johnson, Samuel fainted the day you left.Tyson has sent him to the hospital. He finally regained consciousness this morning.”Kathleen’s heartclenched at the news. “Is he okay?"“I think so.” Rory paused and asked, “Do you want to know thedetails? I can replace them out for you.”Kathleen shook her head. “It's fine. Rory, I don't know when I'llbe going back. I'm afraid Ill need you to manage the company's matters on my behalf.”"Of course.”Rory nodded.With that, Kathleen hung up.“Mommy, look! Ms. Gem made this wreath for me!”Desiree came running over while holding Gemma'’s hand.The castle was surrounded by countlessflowerbeds, which had flowers planted in them. As it was summer, many flowers bloomed,decorating the place with pretty colors. When Gemma was rescued, Kathleen instructed Yadiel tosecretly bring her here to recuperate. After all, it was quiet and had a great view. It was the perfectplace for recuperation.Yadiel, Rory, and Benjamin were the only ones who knew Gemma was stillalive Kathleen did not tell many people about the news. Naturally, Desiree and Eilam knew about itnow.However, Kathleen constantly reminded them to not tell anyone about it."It's so pretty.”Kathleen patted Desiree’s head.Satisfied with her mother’s reaction, Desiree said, “I'm going to showit to Eill"With that, she ran to Eilam’s room.Gemma eyed Kathleen wordlessly. Finally, the formerasked, “What's wrong? Why do you look so pale?”Shaking her head, Kathleen answered, “I'm fine.What about you? How do you feel? Do you feel any changes in your mood?"“Yes.” Gemma nodded“I feel much calmer. Kate, I never knew I could be so at peace in a quiet place like this." Are youready to face Richard now?" Kathleen asked curiously.
