Winning her back after divorce (Divorce anxiety) novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 Manipulated After breakfast, Kathleen began to browse the web. She wanted to buy a piano for the children. Desi sat next to her. “Mommy, can you not buy a piano?” Hearing that, Kathleen looked at her in surprise. Desi stretched out her little hand and explained, “Every time I play the piano, I feel as if my fingers are about to break.” Hearing that, Kathleen smiled. “Then let’s buy it for Eil. He has long arms.” Eil, who was sitting by the side and reading a book, was speechless. Gemma looked at him sympathetically.

“Okay!” Desi strongly agreed. Kathleen said with a smile, “I heard that practicing the piano can make your arms grow longer, and your body will also grow taller. In the future, Eil will grow up to be as tall as Daddy, but you will still be this short. When the time comes, Eil will make fun of you for it.” Blinking, Desi asked, “Playing the piano makes a person taller?” “You see how Eil is taller than you? It’s because he practices the piano more than you do, and he takes it more seriously,” Kathleen said with a smile. Desi could not sit still anymore. “Mommy, hurry up and buy it! Let’s buy this white one! This black one is also fine. Just buy one and let them send it here!” If I don’t start now, I’ll never grow taller.

Eil heaved a sigh. She’s so easy to be manipulated. At ten o’clock in the morning, two elderly ladies came to the house. One of them was Amelia Gardner, and the other was Mila Hunt. They were both in their forties, and they looked like honest people. After all, they had been carefully selected by Samuel. Kathleen said to them, “I don’t have any other requests. Your main task is to help me take care of my two children.” Amelia and Mila nodded. “Noted, Ms. Johnson.” “Also, I don’t like people who gossip,” added Kathleen lazily. “Yes.” The two nodded again. “There is nothing else. The rest of the things are up to you guys,” Kathleen said flatly. With that, Amelia and Mila went to the room to drop off their luggage.

Then, they started to familiarize themselves with the environment. Truthfully, before coming here, Samuel had already informed them beforehand, so they knew the rules. It was a bright and sunny day. Kathleen took the children to play on the field of grass. She and Gemma sat under the parasol, having coffee. “Are you and Richard going to get married?” Kathleen asked out of the blue, curious. Gemma blinked, with a shy look on her face. “Maybe.” “You don’t seem to be very sure,” Kathleen commented, astonished. Letting out a sigh, Gemma responded, “It’s my brother. He doesn’t like Richard. You know he’s a policeman, so he’s always suspicious, and Richard has a lot of really complicated things.” “How complicated?” Kathleen was curious. “It’s that he…” Gemma trailed off. “Actually, I don’t know how to put it into words, but I think he’s fine.” “You can think of it this way. If he really has a problem, your brother would have already caught solid evidence by now,” Kathleen explained. Gemma said helplessly, “I think so, too. I know my brother is worried, but…” Taking Gemma’s hand into hers, Kathleen plastered a soft smile. “You don’t have to worry too much, because your brother loves you very much. If you really want to marry Richard, he will never stop you. If Richard really wants to spend his life with you, he will have to face the pressure from your brother. Who knows, maybe they’ve already come to terms with each other.” “Would that actually happen?”

The man was born with a strong aura. That was why he would be noticed wherever he went. Once he stepped foot into the bar, many people already had their eyes on him. Some women were bold enough to approach him to strike a conversation. However, a few servers stopped them. “I advise you not to go near him. You all know who that man is. If you really dare approach him, you’ll be chased out of Jadeborough and never return.” Those women were some influencers and celebrities. If they were really kicked out of Jadeborough, they would be laughed at. Even so, there were also some courageous ones. A woman walked over with a charming smile on her face. “Hello, Mr. Macari, I’m Lillian. Have you seen any of my work?” Samuel ignored her. He was drinking brandy, but he did not dare to drink much. It was because he knew that he had poor health, but he still wanted to numb himself with alcohol. Hearing the woman’s voice, he felt annoyed. As he did not reply, Lilian continued, “My new film is being broadcast right now. Although I’m the fourth female lead, it happens to have my part today. If you’re interested, how about we find a hotel and watch it together?”

Samuel held the wineglass and put it in front of her. Lillian was stunned for a moment, and then she said excitedly, “Mr. Macari, are you asking me to drink it? I really—” “Eat the glass,” Samuel interrupted coldly. “I’ll go with you once you manage to do it.” Hearing that, Lillian froze. “How can I eat glass?” Samuel’s eyes were icy cold. “Exactly, yet you still think that you’re worthy of me? You’ve overestimated yourself.” Lillian was stunned. At that moment, Tyson walked in from outside. “Mr. Macari, I have some news for you.” Looking at him, Samuel ordered, “Get this woman out of Jadeborough.”
