“So, can I take care of you in the future?” Kathleen did not understand his intention earlier. It was at
that moment when she finally got it. Frowning, she apologized, “I’m sorry, Mr. Lewis. I’ve lost my
memory, so I can’t accept your offer. My wound will be healed soon once I have the medicine. I don’t
need anyone to take care of me.” Caleb was at a loss for words. The Kathleen in front of him looked
like the Kathleen he knew, yet they were different. At that moment, Samuel returned, bringing Desi
along with him. Caleb snorted. What a cunning man! He failed to win Kathleen’s heart, so he’s using
familial ties now.
“Mommy!” Desi ran to the bed with some flowers in her hands. It was obvious that they were freshly
plucked. “Mommy, these are for you.” Desi grinned, exposing her little canine teeth. A smile appeared
on Kathleen’s lips. “Thank you. But how did you get these flowers on the ship?” “The cruise is stopped
by an island now. She went down to pick them just now,” Samuel explained. Kathleen nodded.
“Mommy, does your wound still hurt?” Desi asked worriedly. “It doesn’t hurt anymore. Thank you.”
Kathleen caressed Desi’s hand. “Get well soon, okay? I still want to go to the amusement park with
you. Eil, too! I just called him to tell him I’ve found you, and he’s really happy about it.” Desi sounded
very excited. Kathleen put on a warm smile. “All right. I’ll bring both of you to the amusement park when
I’m well.” Desi beamed. “Okay! Rest well, Mommy. I’ll go out to play now.” “Sure. Go ahead,” Kathleen
responded gently. Desi handed the flowers to Samuel and reminded him, “Daddy, don’t forget to place
these in a vase. I plucked these for Mommy.”
“Of course. I won’t forget.” Samuel took the flowers from the little girl, who skipped out of the room
after. “You sly fox,” Caleb mocked Samuel coldly. Unfazed, the latter bent over and looked at Kathleen.
“Go back to sleep. I’ll bring you the medicine once it’s ready.” Kathleen nodded. She was truly
exhausted; she did not want to think too much about anything. Caleb understood her condition. Hence,
he had no choice but to follow Samuel out of the room. Upon stepping outside, he snorted at Samuel
and strode off. Meanwhile, Samuel lowered his gaze, wondering who Kathleen would choose.
Regardless, he would respect whatever decision she made. He did not have much time left, anyway.
The next day, Kathleen and the others arrived at Jadeborough. As to where Kathleen was going to
recuperate, Samuel, Charles, and Caleb each had different opinions on it, which got them into an
argument. Sitting in the wheelchair, Kathleen said coldly, “Why are you three debating so passionately
among yourselves? Have you forgotten I’m the one who makes the final call, not you three?” Instantly,
the three men fell quiet. “Mommy, I’ll follow you wherever you go.” Desi held Kathleen’s hand tightly,
unwilling to let go. “Kate—” Caleb was about to speak when Kathleen rejected him immediately.
“Mr. Lewis, I’m not going to the Lewis residence. Mr. Macari, please help me get a car. I have a house
in Jadeborough.” “Okay.” Samuel nodded. He would not attempt to change Kathleen’s decisions. It did
not matter where she lived. He was fine with it as long as she was in Jadeborough and somewhere
within his sight all the time. “Daddy, can I stay with Mommy?” Desi asked eagerly. With a gentle voice,
Samuel answered, “Mommy needs to rest for now. Once she’s better, you can stay with her as long as
you want. Okay?” “Okay.” Desi nodded resignedly. “It’s fine. Let Desi stay with me. I’ll find a
housekeeper to take care of our daily needs,” said Kathleen. “All right,” Samuel quickly agreed.
“Mommy, I’m sure Eil would like that, too,” Desi added softly. She had not forgotten to ask on Eil’s
behalf. Kathleen cast Samuel a glance. “Is that okay?” “Are you sure you can take care of two
children?” Samuel asked with concern. Kathleen nodded. “Yes. I’ll be fine soon when the medicine is
here.” Naturally, Samuel listened to her. “Okay.” “Sorry for troubling you,” Kathleen said lightly. “Get in
the car, then. I’ll bring you guys there.” After saying that, Samuel opened the car door. Since Kathleen
was seated in the wheelchair, he scooped her up and walked to the car. Seeing that, Desi covered her
mouth and giggled. Meanwhile, Charles gazed at Desi intently. He knew he could not get too involved
in Kathleen and Samuel’s matters. After all, they had children together. No doubt, the children were the
priority in their decision-making. That was something no one had control over. It was also Samuel’s
advantage. “Kate, I’d like to go over and have a look. I just want to check what your house is like and
confirm the address,” Charles piped up with a half-smile. Kathleen gave him a nod. Caleb was also
about to say something, but Samuel beat him to it and uttered coldly, “Mr. Lewis, isn’t your company
swamped with work today? I was reading the financial news this morning, and it seems that the
company you were planning to purchase is facing a major problem. Shouldn’t you hurry over to solve
it?” “It must be your doing, right?” Caleb placed the blame on Samuel without thinking twice. Samuel
commented nonchalantly, “If it was me, you’d be hearing news about the Lewis Enterprises going
bankrupt.”
“You—” Caleb’s gaze darkened. Kathleen, who was still in Samuel’s arms, asked, “Mr. Macari, can you
please put me in the car first?” Hearing that, Samuel nodded obediently and placed her in the car. Desi Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
quickly crawled into the vehicle and sat beside Kathleen, hugging the latter tightly. It was evident how
much she liked Kathleen. Afterward, Samuel got into the car as well. Charles glanced at Caleb and
consoled, “Don’t be too reckless. He’s got an advantage.” In response, Caleb huffed. “You should hurry
and get back to the office. I heard Samuel really has nothing to do with it,” Charles advised grimly. “Got
it,” responded Caleb coldly. Charles flashed him a subtle smile before entering his own car. Forty
minutes later, they arrived in front of a mansion. Samuel got down from the car, took the wheelchair out
of the trunk, and placed it on the ground. Then, he opened the door to the backseat, carrying Kathleen
out and placing her in the wheelchair. “Mr. Macari, you don’t have to do all this for me. I can manage.”
“It’s a habit. It’s hard to change,” explained Samuel with his husky voice. Kathleen was rendered
speechless. “Let’s go in.” With that, Samuel wheeled her into the courtyard while Desi and Charles
followed behind them. Scanning the area, Charles remarked, “This mansion is not bad. When did you
buy it, Kate?” “Three years ago, I think? A rich businessman from Jadeborough wanted to buy my
medicine, but he had little cash on him. So, he used this house as a mortgage. In the end, I kept it
because I found it quite nice,” Kathleen answered. Samuel furrowed his brows.
“Will your master’s subordinates come looking for you here?” “Not for now. The organization is facing a
lot of problems at the moment. He’ll lose his grandson if he doesn’t solve them,” Kathleen said. Charles
frowned at her words. “Grandson? Who is this old man?”
