A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 400

You Will Come Back

Tears were brimming in Kelly’s eyes.

“She is if you believe she is.” Leonard squeezed her jaw.

“After all these years, you’ve finally admitted it. If that was the case, you’d know how much I despise
you. Why did you come to me for help?” Kelly felt bitter.

She wouldn’t have gone to Leonard if it hadn’t been for the fact that he was Felicia’s biological father
and an influential person in Jadeborough.

She struggled to find the appropriate words to say as tears streamed from her eyes and down her
cheeks like a broken string of pearls.

At that very moment, she was experiencing both physical and psychological pain.

After witnessing Kelly in such a state before him, Leonard could not experience any sense of pleasure.

The only emotion he felt was anger.

She had acted as if she did not know him when he bumped into her that day.

By then, he was already enraged.He found it hard to believe that someone could be as cruel as Kelly,
who had considered their prior relationship as nothing more than a dream and had since forgotten
about it.

Leonard had immersed himself in his suffering from their parting, yet Kelly somehow managed to act as
if nothing happened and begged him for help to find her child.He released Kelly from his grip, and the
latter immediately slumped to the ground.



“Do you think I’m still that fool from the past?” Leonard rasped.

“Do you think that I’ll still do anything for you?”

Rubbing her neck, Kelly pleaded, “Please, Leonard, Please help me. Felicia was supposed to be with
my mom. I wouldn’t have come to bother you if she didn’t threaten me with Felicia. I mean it.”

Leonard’s hands tightly balled into fists at her words.It was still bearable when Kelly had not provided
an explanation. But as she did, Leonard only grew angrier.He found it hard to accept that the reason
she attended the blind date was merely due to her mother’s threat.Is my presence that unbearable to
her?

“Get lost!” Leonard barked. “I never want to see you again.”

By then, Kelly knew that her pleads were no use.She stood up and staggeringly found her way to the
exit.

It seems like I can only depend on myself to find Felicia.

Leonard went to the bathroom after the incident.He twisted the tap open and splashed some cold water
on his face, feeling calmer after that.

Yet, beneath his reddened eyes was anger, pure anger that did not diminish even after splashing
himself with cold water.

He exited the bathroom three minutes later, took his phone, and made a call to Samuel.

However, the one to pick up the call was not Samuel, but Kathleen.

“Where’s Samuel?” Leonard asked, slightly surprised.

“He’s showering,” Kathleen answered.



“Do you need anything? I’ll help you leave him a message.”

“You guys sure are making good progress, huh?” Leonard commented drily.

“Could you just spit it out already?” Kathleen muttered.

“I’m working on my thesis.”

“I need Samuel to help me find a kid named Felicia,” Leonard said, his voice sounding hoarse.

“Please tell him this.”

With a frown etched on her face, Kathleen asked, “Felicia?”

“That’s right,” Leonard replied coolly.

“Please ask him to inform me once there’s any news on the kid.”

With that, he was about to hang up.

“Hold up,” Kathleen called out.

“You don’t have to get Samuel to help you with this; I can help you find the kid.”

“Really?” Leonard exclaimed in disbelief.

“Come over to the hospital. I’ll wait for you by the entrance.”

With that, Kathleen ended the call.

Leonard was planning to ask for more details, but it was too late.

Kathleen placed Samuel’s phone on the side after hanging up the call.



Meanwhile, the latter had just emerged from the bathroom, freshly showered.

Although Kathleen initially forbade him from having a shower, he was obstinate and insisted on doing
so.

Thus, Kathleen could only relent. She helped him wash his hair, whereas Samuel washed the other
parts of his body.

His injured arm was wrapped in a layer of plastic wrap to keep the water from touching it.

Samuel walked up to Kathleen, wearing a black silk robe, smelling like the minty-woody scent of his
body wash.

“Where are you going?” His grating voice sounded.

Earlier on, Kathleen had returned to the hospital after taking a shower at home and changing into fresh
clothes.

Samuel was contented when he saw her sitting on the couch, reading through documents as she wrote
her thesis.

However, he had made her angry by insisting on taking a shower.

Given that Kathleen had helped him wash his hair, he believed that everything was okay. However, the
sight of her putting on her coat led him to believe she was about to leave.

Kathleen rolled her eyes. “It’s all thanks to Leonard. He wanted you to help him find a girl named
Felicia. Coincidentally, the girl that Madeline saved today is also called Felicia. So, I told him to come
over to the hospital. I’m going to meet him at the entrance.”

“Help me change. I’ll go with you,” Samuel said in his baritone voice.



Kathleen’s delicate face was cold as she shot him a stern look. “You’d better not forget that you’re a
patient.”

“My arm’s the only part that’s hurt. It’s not like I’ll need to use it anyway. I’ll just follow you down,”
Samuel croaked an explanation.

Kathleen pondered for a while before asking, “Don’t tell me you think I’m lying to you?”

Samuel cleared his throat. “No.”

“You’re being ridiculous, Samuel,” Kathleen exclaimed exasperatedly. “Why should I bring Leonard in if
I wanted to lie to you? I could’ve easily made up any reason. Moreover, I can leave whenever I want.
Do you think I need a reason to do so?”

Samuel remained silent.

He had nothing to counter after hearing Kathleen’s words.

Kathleen glared at Samuel with narrowed eyes. The latter stood silently in front of her, emanating the
sense that he had been wronged.

“Just how childish can you get?” Kathleen questioned with an annoyed huff. Giving him her best steely
look, she continued, “Be a good patient and stay put in your ward. I’ll help you dry your hair.”

Samuel nodded. As an attempt to ease the doubt in his heart, he asked, “You’ll actually come back,
right?”

“I will,” Kathleen reassured. “Liar liar pants on fire, right?”

Samuel hummed, a small smile on his face. He sat down and waited for Kathleen to dry his hair.



Kathleen took out the hair dryer and started drying his hair.

She glanced at the time after she was done. “Right. Time for me to go now.”

With that, she turned around and left.

Samuel’s eyes darkened as he pursed his thin lips and stared at her diminishing back.

Kathleen was standing by the hospital’s entrance, waiting for Leonard’s arrival.

Much to her surprise, the said man arrived in his car a few minutes later.

Kathleen squinted at him. “Did you come from your house?”

Leonard nodded. “Where’s the girl?”

“It’ll take at least thirty minutes to reach the hospital from your house. Yet, you’ve reached in twenty,”
Kathleen said, her eyes still narrowed. “Who is this girl to you? Why do you care so much about her?”

Leonard’s expression was cold as he replied, “She’s my friend’s daughter.”

“I feel sorry for this friend of yours then,” Kathleen said, a complicated expression on her face. “Her
daughter has leukemia, and the condition is critical. The girl is still unconscious in her ward at the
moment.”

Leonard froze. “What did you just say?”

“The girl has leukemia,” Kathleen repeated. “We contacted the bone marrow transplant center.
However, we haven’t found a suitable bone marrow donor.”

Shock was written all over Leonard’s handsome countenance.



“You know what leukemia is, right?” Kathleen asked, an inexplicable look on her face. “You guys should
have researched it while helping Samuel find a suitable bone marrow for Nicolette.”

Leonard was taken aback.So this is when karma comes knocking at my door.

Quietly, he muttered, “Bring me to her.”

“Follow me,” Kathleen said as she led him to Felicia’s ward.

Felicia was staying in a single ward. On top of that, it was the hospital’s best ward.

Kathleen led Leonard into the ward.

Leonard could not help but freeze in his tracks upon seeing Felicia’s pale face.

Felicia looks so much like Kelly.

With her arms folded in front of her chest, Kathleen said, “I keep having this feeling that I’ve seen this
child before, but I just can’t figure out when and where.”

“You’ve met her mom,” Leonard said, swallowing thickly.

Mom?

Kathleen paused, and a thought occurred to her. “Kelly?”
