All Too Late novel Chapter 8

Chapter 8 All Alone

“Why aren’t you driving? Isn’t Nicolette waiting for you?” Kathleen asked coldly.

Samuel had wanted Kathleen to take the front passenger seat, but he changed his mind when he heard what she said and started the engine.

Neither of them spoke a word on the way home.

The atmosphere in the car crackled with tension.

Samuel felt that it was all Kathleen’s fault.

If she had behaved like she was before, they would not have argued.

Halfway through the journey, Samuel’s phone rang.

It was Nicolette again.

“What did you say? I’ll go over immediately.” Samuel suddenly stopped the car and turned to Kathleen. “Get down. I’ll ask Tyson to come and take you home.”

Kathleen refused to move.

“Get down.”

“It’s almost twelve. Are you going to leave a girl here all by herself?” Kathleen’s heart wrenched.

“Tyson will be here in five minutes.”

Kathleen felt a sickening lurch in her heart. Her face was drained of color.

Biting her lip, she got out of the car.

“Five minutes. Tyson will be here soon. Wait here,” Samuel said.

Kathleen lowered her head and kept quiet.

She had nothing to say to Samuel anymore.

Even if Samuel did not have any feelings for her, he should know that it was not safe to leave a girl by the road at this hour.

Yet he had chosen to leave her by the road.

Samuel glanced at Kathleen. For some reason, he felt awful seeing her head hung low.

Just then, his phone rang again.

Nicolette needed him now.

Without hesitation, Samuel drove away.

Tears ran down Kathleen’s cheeks, falling to the ground.

Five minutes later, Tyson arrived to pick her up.

However, there was no one on the road.

Where is Mrs. Macari?

Tyson tried to call Kathleen.

However, no one answered the phone.

Sensing that something was not right, Tyson quickly gave Samuel a call.

“Did you find her? Remember to send her home safely. If she’s hungry, ask—” Samuel started talking the minute he picked up Tyson’s call.

“Mr. Macari, Mrs. Macari is missing,” Tyson said in a quavering voice.

“Missing?” Samuel frowned.

“Yes. There’s no one on the road. I tried calling Mrs. Macari, but no one answered the phone.” Tyson was starting to feel nervous.

“Send some men to look for her. You must find her no matter what,” Samuel bellowed.

What should I do if something happens to her?

“Okay.” Tyson hung up the phone and ordered some men to search for Kathleen with him.

However, they could not find her within a ten-kilometer radius.

Tyson checked the surveillance cameras and got the shock of his life.

Indeed, Kathleen had met with a bad guy.

A man who appeared to be drunk had dragged her into an alley.

Tyson’s face turned ashen, and he called Samuel immediately.

Stunned, Samuel said, “I’ll be right there.”

He stood up and was about to leave when Nicolette tugged at his sleeve. “Samuel, what’s the matter?”

“Something happened to Kathleen.”

“Something happened to Kathleen?” Nicolette pursed her lips. “Is she deliberately causing trouble because she doesn’t want to divorce you?”
