Chapter 362


    Chapter 362 Asking For Death


    The people in the conference room had varying expressions.


    None of them coulde up with a better way.


    The fact that Kathleen was standing there and hosting the meeting indicated that Samuel had entrusted


    the matter to her.


    Therefore, they couldn’t really object.


    Nevertheless, Xienna was unwilling toply with Kathleen, as she believed that thetter was


    harming Samuel.


    Thus, before the meeting even ended, she walked out rudely.


    Kathleen didn’t really care, but the others looked somehow flustered.


    Although Kathleen had divorced Samuel, it was clear thathe still had feelings for her.


    As for Xienna, although she was the family doctor Samuel had appointed, she was no special to him.


    However, Xienna didn’t think that was the case.


    After the meeting ended, Richard helped Kathleen carry herptop. With a smile, hemented, “Dr.


    Johnson, even if you don’t cherish and care for Mr. Macari, someone else will.”


    She threw him a sideways nce and responded, “Isn’t that a good thing?”


    “Aren’t you worried that she’ll go to Mr. Macari and have you reced?” asked Richard with a half-


    smile.


    “That would be great. I’ll be able to focus on developing X-9.”


    “Do you really think it can save Samuel?” Richard asked again.


    “It cannot save him, per se. It will just help strengthen his body so he will be in the optimal condition to


    receive surgery.”


    After a short pause, Richard questioned, “Why don’t you just tell Samuel the reason behind his severe


    heart problem? It’s because the male lovebug left in his body has merged with his heart, thus


    overloading it.”


    “Even if I don’t tell him, you will. Plus, he knows it very well himself.”


    The male lovebug was indeed the cause of Samuel’s heart problem.


    “You’re scared that he would overthink once he found out, aren’t you?” Richard suggested


    meaningfully, to which Kathleen made no response.


    “I feel like you’re quite concerned about him,” Richard went on. “Even though you seem to have no


    feelings for him now.”


    “I do have no feelings for him.” As she said that, Kathleen took herptop from his hands. “I’ll carry this


    myself, Dr. Zimmer.”


    Then, she strode forward.


    Richard chuckled lightly. “Dr. Johnson, don’t you want to take a look at your office?”


    Confused, Kathleen turned around. “What office?”


    “You’re an incredible talent, so the College of Medicine is making much effort to make you stay. They


    have prepared an office for you,” Richard exined.


    “I don’t have ns to work here,” Kathleen said with a frown.


    “That’s true, but you said earlier that you would need lots of manpower and materials for your n.


    They have all of that here. Come on, let’s go and take a look,” Richard urged. “The organization is


    funded by Samuel, anyway. It would be a waste to not use the office.”


    Speechless, Kathleen allowed Richard to lead her to the office.


    Indeed, the College of Medicine treated her with much respect. They had prepared a huge and


    spacious office for her.


    “Not bad, right? They know about your rtionship with Samuel, so they don’t dare to take you lightly,”


    Richard remarked.


    “I am quite a capable person on my own,” Kathleen pointed out.


    She didn’t have to depend on Samuel.


    “That’s a given,” Richard agreed. “It’s just that thebination of those two factors makes you even


    more impressive.”


    Kathleen couldn’t help snorting lightly. She had to admit that Richard was a smooth talker.


    As they were talking, Kathleen’s phone rang.


    The moment she picked up the phone, Samuel’s deep voice sounded from the other end of the line. “I


    just remembered something. A few years ago, you joined hands with Caleb and captured a man called


    Noles. After you got into the ident, Caleb abandoned Noles because he thought thetter was


    useless. I actually rescued Noles and kept him by my side all these years. Is there anything you would


    like to ask him?”


    Kathleen was surprised to hear that. “You mean about me and Caleb?”


    “Yes.” Samuel’s voice was heavilyced with displeasure.


    Of course, Kathleen had to find out the truth. “I’ll head over right away. Where do I meet you?”


    “At thepany. I’ll wait for you here,” Samuel said indifferently.


    “Okay.” With a nod, Kathleen hung up.


    “Did Mr. Macari call you over?” Richard asked.


    “Yes. I’ll leave things here to you, then.”


    As she turned around and left, Richard gazed at her figure intently and smiled without a word.


    Meanwhile, Xienna arrived at Macari Group with the intention to tell on Kathleen.


    When she walked into the building, a security guard stopped her.


    “Do you have an appointment?”


    His question irked her. “You’re saying I need an appointment?”


    “Of course. Everyone whoes here needs an appointment. If you don’t have one, I won’t be able to


    let you in. That is the rule here.”


    “Don’t you know who I am?” Xienna snapped. “This is not my first timeing to Macari Group!”


    “Of course I know you, but that doesn’t change anything. Since you don’t have an appointment this


    time, you won’t be allowed to enter,” the security insisted sternly.


    Xienna grew even more irritated upon hearing that. “Since you know who I am, you should know how


    important I am to Samuel. He won’t let you off if the urgent issue on hand gets dyed because you


    won’t let me in!”


    Despite her words, the security was unfazed. “Mr. Macari did not give me any orders about letting you


    in for no reason, so I cannot do that.”


    Frustrated, Xienna stomped her feet.


    “Dr. Powell, if I were you, I’d call Mr. Macari and ask him to let me in,” the security prompted.


    Xienna bit her lip, unwilling to give in.


    It would be too embarrassing for her to call Samuel and ask him to let her in.


    After all, she wanted a different treatment that could show how special she was to him.


    This lowly security guard knows nothing!


    Just as Xienna was contemting what to do, Kathleen showed up.


    She walked straight past Xienna without noticing thetter.


    Abruptly, Xienna grabbed her. “Stop right there!”


    Kathleen knitted her brows and withdrew her hand from Xienna’s grip. “Are you asking for death?” she


    uttered coldly, making Xienna freeze on the spot.


    “Who said you could touch me?” Kathleen added with disgust.


    “You can’t go in without an appointment!” Xienna warned.


    Before Kathleen could even respond, the security interjected, “Ms. Johnson doesn’t need an


    appointment.”


    Dumbfounded, Xienna blurted, “What did you say?”


    “Ms. Johnson, Mr. Macari has instructed us in advance that you don’t need an appointment to enter.


    This way, please,” the security said politely.


    “Okay.”


    Without a change in her expression, Kathleen went ahead.

    “Howe she can go in?” Xienna questioned with exasperation.


    “It’s an order from Mr. Macari, of course,” the security replied. “He asked Mr. Hackney to remind us to


    be polite to Ms. Johnson. Whoever dares to offend her shall leave Jadeborough.”


    Xienna was in disbelief.


    What? Didn’t Samuel divorce her already? Why is he still treating her so well? Does he think she’s the


    only one who can save him? That foolish man! Kathleen just wants to use him as a test subject. No, I


    can’t let this happen. I won’t allow Samuel to be harmed! I have to stop her!
