Divorce Anxiety
Chapter 72

Am I being heartless? I don't think so. I don't even care if others say I'm heartless. Isn't Nicoletteheartless? She caused my miscarriage and almost made me lose my life. I'm already going easy onher by just wanting to make her crippled.Kathleen’s delicate eyes glanced at Samuel lifelessly.Rightthen, Samuel's gaze darkened.”You can't agree to my request because you can't harden your heartto do it, right?” Kathleen eyed him emotionlessly. “Then, what's the point of having thisconversation anymore?”Samuel remained silent.”Samuel, you can just pretend nothing has everhappened and live with that vicious woman. That's your business. Just don't come to me and makeme feel disgusted.” Kathleen shut her eyes. “I've had enough.”l can be as cold-hearted as him, nothaving a care about anything else. Kathleen had given up entirely.Samuel stared at her icily. “That'sit?"Kathleen was stunned by his response. She looked at him palely. “Yes. That's it."But is Samuelreally willing to do so?0f course, Kathleen did not believe it."Okay. I understand.” Samuel's tone wasgrim. “Then, you've got to listen to me and take good care of your body. Kate, we've got a long wayahead of us.”"We'll talk about it once you've fulfilled my request,” Kathleen said plainly.Samuelreleased her. “Okay. Wait here for my update.”With that, he walked out of the room.Kathleenremained calm.When Samuel stepped out of the room, he ordered Tyson to approach him. “Getsomeone and send Nicolette to the villa." Tyson was stunned. “Now?"“Yes,” Samuel responded flatly."Once she’s fully recovered, send her out of the country."Tyson was shocked. What's is Mr. Macaritrying to do?“Look for another woman who looks similar to Nicolette. I need her for something,”Samuel instructed coldly. “You must replace her within twenty-four hours.”Okay.” Tyson went off tocarry out his tasks instantly. With a dark expression, Samuel turned around and left. Meanwhile,Kathleen was alone in the ward.Right then, she thought of Benjamin, and she pressed the call

bell. Moments later, a nurse walked in. “How can I help you, Mrs. Macari?"Mrs. Macari?Kathleen wasconfused. “You can just call me Kathleen."The nurse was dumbfounded.After all, everyone in thehospital knew how much Samuel treasured Kathleen.All the related personnel involved in Nicolette'ssurgery were removed by Samuel.In fact, the doctor and nurses never appeared again.No one knewof their whereabouts, nor did anyone dare to ask.Moreover, for the past three days, Samuel showedno interest in Nicolette and treated her coldly.Instead, he neither ate nor drank for three daysstraight. All he did was take care of Kathleen.Thus, everyone came to a tacit understanding.That wasthe power of a legal wife. That was why everyone treated Kathleen with utmost politeness."Where'sGemma?” Kathleen asked, frowning."Gemma'’s fine. She just injured her waist a little and needs torecuperate for some time,” the nurse explained.”Is it serious?” Kathleen questioned concernedly.Thatday, she heard sounds of a fight outside.She knew Gemma could never defeat Sarah.”She'll be fineafter some rest,” the nurse answered.Despite that, Kathleen was still worried.”l want to see her.”Kathleen furrowed her brows."Mrs. Macari, you can't move about,” the nurse said hurriedly. “Yourbody is still very weak. Even walking will be a problem for you. Having a miscarriage is not a simplematter. You should sit still and rest."Kathleen frowned deeper. “Is someone taking care of her rightnow?"“Don“t worry, Mrs. Macari. Mr. Macari has assigned someone to take care of her. Everythingwill be fine,” the nurse replied.Kathleen pursed her lips. “That's good. Please do your best to satisfyher needs. If there's something you people can't figure out, tell me. I'll come up with a solution."Thenurse nodded. “Okay. You should worry more about yourself, Mrs. Macari. It's impossible for thisbody of yours to recover in less than a year and a half."" Thanks. I've got it.” Kathleen lowered hergaze.She was a traditional medicine practitioner. When she placed her fingers on her wrist, she knewwhat her body's condition was.Before her pregnancy, her body was already weak. On top of that,she was constantly in shock, fear, and emotional stress. Hence, she could barely eat anything.Afterthat, a lot of blood was drawn from her, and she lost more of it when she had her miscarriage.Nowthat she had lost so much blood and vitality, it would take at least three to five years for her torecover completely. After saying all that, the nurse finally left, leaving Kathleen sitting on the bedwith her gaze lowered, lost in her thoughts.When midnight came, Samuel returned.Meanwhile,Kathleen was sleeping on the bed.Suddenly, she felt a weight on her body.Samuel had pulled herinto his arms along with the blanket.Right then, Kathleen could sense his cold aura and smell thescent of blood from his body.Did he really cripple Nicolette?“Where did you go?” Kathleen's voicewas slightly grim.”l went to do what you asked.” Samuel released her and pulled out his phone. “I'vegot a video of it. Here, take a look."At that, he passed the phone to Kathleen.Holding the device,Kathleen pressed the play button.In the video, Nicolette’s legs were stained with blood, and her hairwas a mess. Some were even stuck on her face. She looked like she was half dead.Kathleen putdown the phone without saying anything.Seeing that, Samuel took the phone back and patted herhead. “I did what you said. Don't be angry anymore, okay?“Kathleen eyed Samuel. “Do you not loveher anymore?"*I love you more,” Samuel answered instantly.Love me more? So, he doesn't just loveme. He still has feelings for Nicolette.”I've already arranged for someone to send her away. She'llnever appear in front of you again,” Samuel promised. “Kate, we'll live a great life in the future. Noone will interfere with our lives again.”"When Kathleen heard his words, she somehow could notbring herself to feel happy.She did not even respond to Samuel's hug.At that moment, she was justexhausted, so exhausted that she felt like dying.After some time, Samuel felt the body in his armswas motionless.Slowly, he released Kathleen. Only then did he realize she had fallenasleep.According to the doctor, she lost a lot of blood during her miscarriage. On top of that, herbody was originally weak. Thus, she needed to be taken care of properly.If she did not heal properly,she would suffer complications for the rest of her life.Samuel placed her on the bed gently andtucked her in.Then, he went for a shower to wash away the stench on his body.After putting on afresh set of clothes, he got into the bed and hugged Kathleen to sleep.That night, his uneasy hearthad finally felt a sense of relief.He knew he could never lose Kathleen no matter what.At the sametime, he also knew it would be difficult to make Kathleen return to her sweet and innocent self.Nomatter how difficult it was, he would never give up.As he pondered on that, he gradually drifted offto sleep.Meanwhile, his phone was on silent mode.There was no answer, no matter how many timesNicolette called Samuel.”Ms. Yoeger, please stop dawdling. Let's leave now.” Tyson glanced atNicolette impatiently.Does she really think Mr. Macari will pay attention to her? She should bethanking the gods that he didn't kill her for doing all those things.
