Irresistible Boss Succumbing to Your Touch (Maria Anita) novel Chapter 334

S2–Chapter 119

Samantha’s POV

“Auntie Sam?” I heard Enzo calling me from inside the house.

“Here on the porch, Enzo,” I replied, lacking the energy to get up and go to him.

He appeared and saw me lying on the chaise lounge, looking at me with a suspicious expression.

“Are you okay, auntie?”

“Yes, sweetie, I’m just feeling a bit down today.”

“Hmm. Do you need anything?” He was so helpful, I thought for a moment and smiled.

“A piece of that chocolate cake from the kitchen with lots of frosting!” I smiled at him, and he returned a big grin.

“I think I’ll bring two pieces.” He winked at me.

“Then call Clara and bring three.”

The three of us sat there, and I devoured my piece of cake and even stole a few forkfuls from Enzo.

“Want more, auntie?” He laughed, extending the plate to me.

“Better not.”

“Chocolate cake before lunch?” Henry arrived with a beautiful smile.

“A small sin, my handsome,” I smiled at him. “Would you like some?”

“No, Nightingale, thank you.” He kissed my cheek as he sat beside me. “So what’s on the agenda for today?”

“Nothing. Today we’re going to take it easy, stay quiet and rest, because auntie Sam is tired,” Enzo announced the day’s instructions.

“Really? Are you all okay?” Henry looked at us suspiciously.

“And why wouldn’t we be?” I asked, finding his reaction curious.

“Because you’re the most energetic person I know, and these two can’t stay still,” Henry looked at each of us. “Who are you and what have you done with my family?” We started laughing, and my heart swelled with joy when he included me in his family.

“We’ll be good today,” I said and laid my head on his lap, drifting off to sleep.

When I woke up, I was lying in our bed with a thin blanket over my body. I looked at the clock, and it was already early afternoon. I had slept for several hours; I was really tired.

I decided to take a shower to wake up. I had been feeling strange for many days, somewhat irritable, very tired, and completely crazy for chocolate. I loved chocolate, but lately, I had been kind of addicted; I needed to control this. But maybe it was just PMS.

I found Henry, the kids, and the dogs in the living room, having an animated conversation. As soon as he saw me, Henry came towards me, looking concerned.

“Sam, are you okay?” he asked, examining my face.

“Yes, I am, feeling refreshed.” I smiled to reassure him. “And what’s all this excitement about?”

“Enzo’s birthday is coming up in a few days,” Henry explained.

“Isn’t your birthday on the twenty–fifth?” I asked, confused.

“Yes, auntie, exactly ten days from now,” Enzo smiled. “I love having birthdays!”

I smiled at him, but my mind was doing calculations. It couldn’t be possible that I was so confused and had lost track of the days of the month that badly. Suddenly, I wasn’t there in that room anymore; the voices seemed distant, and I was just trying to remember when was the last time…

“Sam…” I heard Henry calling me, but his voice seemed far away in my head. “Sam!” He shook me and called louder; I blinked and looked at him. “Woman, what world are you in?”

“Sorry, my dear, but I just remembered I had to call my mom,” I made up an excuse for my distraction.

“Clara wants to go to that ice cream shop near the little square here,” Henry said, and I saw my opportunity.

“Great idea, let’s go!” I said quickly and started getting up. “I’ll get my purse.”
