Chapter 728 Pamper
“I was thinking that rumors are just rumors. They’re not credible at all.” Natalie stared at Samuel with bright eyes.
Samuel was toying with her hand as he questioned, “What kind of rumors?”
“You being cold and celibate and how you stay away from women…” Natalie blabbed every rumor she had ever heard about him. “I bet those who spread the rumors would get the shock of their lives if they could see you like this.”
Samuel chuckled as he leaned closer to her ear and whispered, “Those people weren’t wrong. I’m only like this now because I’m with you. I don’t have any interest in other women.”
This girl has the innocence of a young girl, yet sometimes, she has a dominant temperament that can rule the world. There are times when she’s cunning, and there are also times when she’s aloof. She’s like a treasure that is full of surprises every day.
I’m lucky to have met her before Shawn, Christopher, and Nikolai did. Otherwise, my life would’ve been filled with regret if I had lost such a precious treasure.
He had watched Natalie returning barb for barb at the news conference from the beginning to the end. However, he was curious as to how she did it.
“How did you get the recording?”
“It was nothing.” Natalie smiled. “I just used some tricks. I put the recorder on Thomas to catch him in his act. If he is as dumb as I think, he might still be clueless as to where I got the recording from.”
Samuel looked at Natalie with shining eyes as he brushed her nose proudly. “I was more or less worried for you before the press conference, but it looks like I underestimated you.”
Natalie nodded.
She still had a few regrets from the press conference, such as the matter involving the drug molecule she got from Melissa’s blood and other patients. At that time, she didn’t reveal any of it for fear that it would set off turmoil in Chanaea.
That also meant she couldn’t exact the befitting punishment onto Thomas and Yara.
Hence, he understood the pain she felt. It was a feeling that not many could bear, so his heart ached for her all the more.
Samuel gently laid her head against his shoulder so that she could sleep more comfortably.
When Billy stopped the car and was about to open the back passenger door, he caught Samuel’s gesture for him to keep silent. Catching on to Samuel’s intention, Billy sensibly moved away from the car and allowed Natalie to continue her rest.
That went on until dusk.
Natalie was finally feeling better after the nap. When she opened her eyes, she realized she had been leaning on Samuel’s shoulder the entire time. With a glimpse at the window, she noticed that the sky had turned dark.
“How’s your nap?”
“I-I think I napped for quite a while.” Natalie bit her lip guiltily and looked at his shoulder. “You could have woken me up. How’s your shoulder? Is it numb?”
