The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154 

Kenneth valued Sophia and Franklin. 

Although he pampered them, he would never allow them to behave nastily. 

He had handed the Bowers family to Samuel, so he knew Samuel would hand it down to the twins in the future. 

Hence, he could not let the two children get away with such arrogant behavior. 

“As long as both of you apologize and admit that you‘re wrong..” Kenneth trailed off. Nevertheless, his voice remained stern as he continued, “I‘ll be lenient in meting out your punishment. What I want to see is to admit your mistake.” 

However, the two children didn‘t even take a second glance at each other. 

They knew very well that all they needed to do was apologize, and their great grandfather would not punish them. 

Even so, they shook their heads simultaneously as if they had a telepathic connection. 

At once, Kenneth‘s blood pressure surged. He raised his voice and scolded, “You... What do you mean by shaking your heads?“| 

Franklin had a look of determination on his face as he stated, “I didn‘t do anything wrong, so I‘m not going to apologize to that woman.” 

“Franklin didn‘t do anything wrong,” Sophia chimed in. 

On the other hand, Yara did not expect the twins to be so stubborn. 

What people say is true indeed! Someone else‘s kids would never become my own. How dare they team up to bully me and still refuse to repent! 

Yara scoffed internally. Since they‘re not my kids, they deserve to be punished. 

“Grandpa, they are still young...” she muttered, fanning the flames. “Please don‘t take it to heart. They will understand by the time they grow up. I know that no one in this family acknowledges me, and no one likes me. Maybe I‘m the crux of the problem!” 

“I‘m glad you know that,” Franklin retorted. “Don‘t ever appear in front of Sophia 

and me. We hate it whenever we see you!” 

I detest all these! Why is our mommy like this? What a joke! 

With that, Kenneth raised his arm and swung the cane. 

Smack! 

Franklin let out a grunt in pain. 

Although Sophia did not feel the pain physically, tears began rolling down her cheeks. 

Franklin did this all for me! However, just like him, I don‘t want to admit it‘s my mistake when it‘s not. I don‘t want to bow my head in defeat, and I don‘t want to call that woman my mommy! 

Sophia couldn‘t watch them any longer. She hurried off to a corner and fished out a phone from her backpack. Immediately, she dialed a number that belonged to someone she regarded as her guardian angel. 

As the ringing tone resounded through the phone, she felt her heart wrenching with anxiety. 

Please pick up the phone! Quick!
