Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety)

Chapter 406

Chapter 406 Apprentice Samuel's hand hung in mid-air, and all of a sudden, he felt a warm and soft

hand holding his hand. At that very moment, his sorrowful heartcalmed down almost immediately.

The agonizing pain faded away as well.

“Samuel? Wake up.

It's me.” Kathleen's voice rang out. Alas, there was no response from Samuel.

It was as if he had sunken into the darkness, allowing it to swallow him whole. Kathleen frowned as she

tightenedher grip on the man's hand.

“Samuel, it’s me.

I’m Kathleen.

Desi and I are fine.

Open your eyes and take a look at us.” Desiree's tearful voice was filled with concern.

“Daddy!” The others stood aside, wearing worried expressions. Kathleen examined Samuel's condition

in puzzlement.

He may have vomited some blood, but that doesn't explain why he’s unresponsive. Wynnie

approached and explained, “Kate, Samuel had been like this before.

He slipped into a coma and only woke up after your brother left Eil and Desi in our care.”

Kathleenlooked at Samuel's pale face.

“Then what should we do now?” Even she had no idea what to do, as she didn’t expect Samuel to be in

this state. Wynnie,who was also clueless, said, “All of us staying here isn't going to help much.

I’ll bring Desi home first.”

“Thanks, Mrs.

Macari.

I'll take good care of Samuel,” said Kathleen solemnly. “All right.” Wynnie nodded and took Desiree’s

hand. “Desi, honey, let’s go home, okay?” “Okay,” replied Desiree obediently. AfterWynnie left with

Desiree, Kathleen looked at Samuel, who was lying unconscious, and placed her hand on his charming

face. With sorrow in her tone, she said, “Why do you always torture yourself?” Samuel's brows

remained deeply furrowed.

It was unknown whether he could hear her or not. “Samuel, you have to wake up soon.

Or else, I would abandon you if you stay in a coma for too long.

Promise me you’ll wake up soon.

You said you wanted to pursue me, right? I'm waiting for you.

I don't like this at all,” she threatened. Still, he didn't give her any reaction, but the grimace on his face

slowly disappeared. Kathleen helped him pullthe covers and got up to leave the ward. At that moment,

there was a man and a woman standing by the ward door. The man was Yadiel Gibson, and the

woman was Rory Gibson.

They were siblings whom Charles had sent to help and protect Kathleen. They were the ones who

saved Kathleen and Desiree at the schoolearlier. “What did you guys find?” asked Kathleen coldly. “We

found Yareli nearby.

She had passed out with a detonator in her hand,” answered Yadiel. Rory added, “Her fingerprints were

the only ones found on the detonator, but she’s now unconscious.

The doctor has no idea what to do either.” Kathleen frowned.

“She’s not the one who wanted to kill me.

Nicolette is the one behind all this.

She's merely a scapegoat that Nicolette left at the scene.” “But, there’s no evidence that proves

Nicolette was a part of this.

She didn't leave any traces behind,” said Rory. Kathleen's expression was frosty.

“Someone must be helping her.

Moreover, I don't think she will carry out the plan without disguising herself.” “All the current evidence

proves that the culprit is Yareli.

What should we do, Ma'am?” Yadiel questioned. Kathleen paused for a while before saying

indifferently, “You don’t have to call me that.

Just call me Dr.

Johnson.”

“All right.” Yadiel nodded.

Kathleen arched an eyebrow.

“Case closed for now.

Nicolette won't show herself if we're hot on her heels like this.

We can only wait until she lets down her guard.” Yadiel and Rory exchanged glances before nodding.

“Yes, Dr.

Johnson.”

“Send Samuel to Florinia Manor.

Zion and Yareli, too.” Kathleen spoke in a low voice. “Roger that.” Kathleen thought that Florinia Manor

was the best place for her to conceal her whereabouts and look after Samuel atthe same time. Only a

few people knew that she was still alive. Before Nicolette showed herself, Kathleen would stay away

from public view so that the former wouldn't find out about her and become alert. Upon reaching

Florinia Manor, Kathleen tucked Samuel into his bed. Subsequently, she lifted her head to look at the

wedding photo hung over the bed headboard. The photo was taken at their wedding back then. She

looked unhappy in the photo, and even Samuel's handsome face showed a tinge of hostility. The

wedding photo was far from perfect.

Even so, Samuel still left it there instead of taking it down. Won’t his mood be affectedwhen looking at

it? I don't understand him. She went to get a hot towel and wiped Samuel's face and body. Knock.

Knock. Right then, she heard knocking sounds coming from outside the door. “Come in,” she said

softly. Zion, who hadregained his ability to walk in the past two days, pushed the door open and

entered. His condition was able to improve in such a short time because of Kathleen's treatment.

“Kathleen, how is Samuel?” the young boy asked. Kathleen looked sideways at Samuel.

“He’s still in a coma.”

Zion sighed.

“I feel for him.

Is it worth it to torture himself for the sake of a woman?” Kathleen was speechless. The boy continued

with a placid tone,“I swear I wouldn't be like him in the future.” “Be careful not to end up eating your

own words,” Kathleen reminded. “I'm sure I won't.” Zion refused to believe that he would reduce himself

to such a miserable state for a woman. However, in the future, he would eventually understand what it

felt like to be madly in love with someone. Alas, he was now still too young and ignorant to understand

that. “Do you need anything?” Kathleen asked. “Oh, nothing.

I'm just here to check on you guys,” he answered. “You can be at ease here.

This place is much safer than my mansion.” This was Florinia Manor, after all. Apart from bodyguards

that guarded the place, there were surveillance cameras installed in everynook and cranny.

Absolute safety was guaranteed in the manor. After a few moments of hesitation, Zion asked,

“Kathleen, do youhave an apprentice?” She shook her head.

“No.

Why would I need an apprentice?” “Have you ever thought of accepting one?” he questioned again.

She furrowed her brows.

“Are you trying to say you want to learn from me?” “Can I? I would love that.” The boy straightened his

back, showinghis passion and earnestness. “You're still a kid.

You would still need to go to school after you get better.

When the time comes, you might have a lot more options to decide from.” Kathleen didn’t want tolimit

the boy's future. “That's not a problem.

I can study and learn from you at the same time.

Think about it.

After you teach me your skills, I could become your assistant,” said Zion seriously. “Are you really

interested?” He nodded fervently.

“Yes! I want to become more capable so that I could protect myself and the people around me.”

Kathleen smiled.

“You may be young, but you sure are ambitious.” “So, is that a yes?” Zion’s eyes twinkled with

excitement. “Yes.” She nodded. He beamedhappily and asked, “Then how should I address you in the

future? Do I call you 'Master' or do I call you by your name as usual?” “Whatever floats your boat.” She

didn't really mind. “I'll call you by your name then.

What should I start learning first?” he asked eagerly. “You can go ahead and take a walk outside first.

I'll come to you after I finish with everything here.” “All right.” With that, he turned and left the room.

Kathleen smiled to herself,amused at the thought of suddenly having an apprentice. She then looked

down at Samuel. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“See? My life is still filled with surprises even when you’re in a coma.
