Chapter 372 Treat You Horribly Kathleen returned to her room and sat onthe bed. She arrived an hour ago and discussed the matter with Frances. Luckily, the old woman listened to anything she said. She decided to let Frances move in with her, as there was no way she was letting the old woman be trapped in a dangerous situation. Moreover, Yoeger Group would soon be divided. The Yoegers could deal with their assets however they wanted, but Kathleen was adamant about helping Frances regain everything that was rightfully hers. will not let them have Granny's assets! Hector's actions alone proved that the Yoegers never valued Frances’ contributions to the family. All Kathleen wanted was for Frances to live her sunset years in peace. As for her children, she didn't have to worry, as she could ask Samuel to stay and look after them for one night. She lay in bed and received a text from Samuel that read: How's it going on your side? Kathleen replied: Everything's going well.
Are the kids asleep? He responded: Yeah, they're asleep. She texted: Good. He replied: You should
rest early, too. She typed: Okay. Justas she put her phone down and prepared to sleep, Samuel sent
her another text message: I've turned down the marriage with Yareli. She texted back: I was wrong. I
shouldn't have forced you. You're right; marriage isn't child's play. It's not a tool that can be used.
He replied: It's good that you understand. Kathleen frowned in confusion. What does he mean? He
sent another text message: You treated marriage as a joke five years ago. So why did you marry
Caleb when you didn't love him? She replied sheepishly: I've lost my memory. I can't give you an
answer even if I want to. He texted back: I like how memory loss is your excuse for everything. She
pursed her lips. He's kind of humorous sometimes. Moments later, he texted: Go to sleep. She rolled
her eyes and replied: I was about to sleep. You were the one talking to me! A smile spread across his
face as he could almost sense her irritation through the words on the screen. He was able to picture
her angry expression as he texted: Did I complain when you summoned me back to look after the
kids?She furrowed her brows and replied: I won't need you anymore after I return tomorrow. He
responded: Wow. Is this an act of discarding me after you're done using me? Kathleen was
speechless. Why does he make it sound like it's my fault? Hence, she texted: Fine. I won't ask you for
help in the future anymore, okay? She wouldn't have asked him for help if Charles wasn't busy.
Samuel's thin lips curled into a smile as he texted back: Can't you tell I'm joking? I just don't want
our relationship to be too awkward. Before she put her phone down and went to sleep, she merely
replied: Good night! While wearing a gloomy expression, he responded: Good night. Things would
never return to the way it was, huh? The next morning, Kathleen woke up and checked the time on
her phone. It was only six o'clock in the morning, but she found herself wide awake. Thus, she got
up and went downstairs to check on Frances. After knocking on the door, she entered and saw
Frances still asleep. She walked over, intending to leave after taking a look. That was when she
caught sight of a bottle of sleeping pills and a letter on the old woman's bedside table. Her whole
body stiffened. “Granny!” she exclaimed as she placed her finger beneath Frances’ nose to feel her
breathing. When she didn't feel anything, her mind began buzzing. “Granny! Help! Someone!” she
shrieked frantically. One of the maids rushed in. “What's wrong?” “Go get the car ready! Hurry!"
Kathleen screamed hysterically. At a single glance, the maid could tell that something had
happened to Frances. Without asking anything else, she immediately went to carry out Kathleen's
order. Kathleen held Frances in her arms and bawled in despair. Why did this happen? Why did
Granny end her own life? Soon after, the maid returned and informed Kathleen, “Ms. Johnson, the
car is ready.” “Help me!” Kathleen stuffed the letter into her pocket as the maid walked over and
helped her carry Frances into the car.She sped all the way to the hospital, but it was too late.
Frances had already passed away. She had already stopped breathing when they reached the
hospital. When the doctor announced Frances’ death, Kathleen sat motionlessly on the chair in a
state of complete shock. Samuel was the first to arrive. When he saw Kathleen's dejected look, he
approached and embraced her. “Kate?” Kathleen threw herself into his arms and hugged his neck,
bawling like a baby. He hugged her tight and allowed her to vent her emotions. Charles came next,
and then there was Wynnie and Calvin. Initially, Diana wanted to come as well, but they didn't let
her, for fear that she wouldn't be able to handle the sorrow of losing her friend. The way Kathleen
was weeping in misery broke everyone's hearts. Charles looked at Samuel and said, “Why don't you
bring her back first?” Wynnie walked over. “I've asked someone to send the kids back home.” “All
right.” Samuel nodded and looked down at Kathleen, who was in his arms. “I'll bring you back first,
okay?” “No. I want to stay.” Kathleen shook her head, her soft and fair hands clutching the man's
collar. She sobbed piteously, her eyes and nose red from all the crying. Samuel's heart ached as he
looked at her tear-stricken face. “All right then.” He then shook his head at Charles, indicating they
should allow her to stay. When Frances was pushed out of the operating room, her head was
covered with a white sheet. Kathleen approached, wanting to take a look. The doctor knew what she
wanted and allowed her to take one last look at her grandmother. As she lifted the white sheet and
looked at the old woman's peaceful expression, tears streamed down her cheeks. “Granny... It's all
my fault. I should've let you know that I'm your granddaughter sooner. Why did you do this?”
Kathleen's voice turned hoarse. Everything was fine just one day ago. She couldn't fathom why
something like this happened. As she sobbed, Samuel held her arm and supported her. All of a
sudden, her heart clenched, and she blacked out. “Kate!” Samuel caught her in time. The doctor
shouted, “Quick, send her to a ward!” Samuel carried her and sent her into one of the wards for the
doctor to do a checkup on her. “She passed out due to extreme grief. Let her rest, and make sure
she doesn't have any more emotional fluctuations,” said the doctor. Samuel nodded. “All right.”
After the doctor left, Samuel pulled the covers for Kathleen. As he took her hand and looked at her
delicate but pale face, his soulful eyes were filled with heartache. Kathleen woke up in the evening.
She didn't know how long she had been unconscious, but she felt lethargic. “You're awake?”
Samuel's deep voice sounded. She looked over at him. “How long have I been asleep?” “You've been
asleep for the whole day,” he answered. “My granny...” She frowned. He placed his hand on her
shoulder. “Don't worry. Charles and my parents are handling everything.” She pursed her lips.
“Thank them for me.” “I will.” His voice sounded slightly raspy. “Where are my shoes? I want to go
home.” She gazed at him. “I'll help you.” He took her shoes and wanted to help her put them on.
“It's okay. I'll do it myself.” She furrowed her brows.His big hands enveloped her feet. “Let me help
you.” Subsequently, he helped her put on her shoes in a gentle manner. All of a sudden, he realized
something. “Kate, back then, I thought I treated you nice enough. But now, as I helped you put on
your shoes, I realized that I had treated you horribly,” he uttered gruffly.
