Chapter 842 Spilling The Beans
Natalie knew Yana bore no ill will in asking about her future marriage plans.
As her godsister, Yana merely wished to know when Samuel and Natalie would officially become husband and wife.
Nonetheless, it did not seem as though marriage was on the immediate horizon for Natalie.
As such, Natalie answered candidly, “We don’t have any plans at the moment.”
Yana had assumed that they did not publicize news of their marriage for privacy, yet she was surprised to learn that Samuel had not proposed to Natalie at all.
She hastily replied, “I was just curious, Natalie.”
“Don’t worry. I won’t read too much into it.” Natalie nodded reassuringly before meeting Yara’s gaze and adding, “Samuel and I have been through a lot together, Yana. He’s the one for me. A marriage certificate is just a piece of paper to me. I don’t need it to prove our commitment to one another.”
Natalie meant every word of what she said about her relationship with Samuel.
Samuel’s feelings and sincerity toward her were more important than any of those formalities.
Yana grasped her hand and uttered, “I’ve been through a lot to gain you as a younger sister. I just want you to be happy and safe.”
“I will.” Natalie smiled and nodded.
After their meal, they left the shopping mall.
The overprotective Hans was already waiting to pick Yana up at the shopping mall entrance.
Natalie bid Yana farewell before returning to the Bowers residence.
Justin happened to be in, and he was so absorbed in a phone call that he did not hear Natalie entering.
Justin knew then that he was doomed.
Nonetheless, Justin made a last-ditch attempt to save himself. He clasped his hands together in desperation and pleaded, “My dear future sister-in-law, could you please keep this piece of knowledge to yourself? He really wants to surprise you, and all his efforts will be down the drain if you know about it. He’s going to kill me for this! You have no idea what lengths Samuel has gone to in order to give you an unforgettable proposal. The landscape architects and I are struggling to keep up with his fantastical ideas.”
Natalie’s heart warmed after hearing Justin’s pleas.
The proposal was one thing, yet it was Samuel’s effort and love that touched her.
He has always been like this! He doesn’t say a thing but tries to give me the best of everything!
With that thought in mind, Natalie walked toward Justin and patted his shoulder. She reassured him, “Don’t worry, Justin! I can keep a secret.”
“You said so yourself! Don’t rat me out!” Justin felt as if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. “Just pretend you don’t know anything and wait for Samuel’s surprise! Though you already know about his preparations, I guarantee you’ll still be bowled over by the actual event.”
