The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276 

As Natalie had run away, she actually did not know what happened to Justin and Jane afterward. 

Who would have thought? It seemed things got interesting after I left. 

She thought the two were like fire and ice, two individuals with completely different personalities. It surprised her that the two actually got along very well. 

Then, after Justin was done expressing the joy he felt, he brought up something odd. 

“Samuel, I saw one of the Leister family‘s maids today. At first, I could not recall who she was. Then it hit me. That woman looked exactly like Yara Nichols!” 

Natalie‘s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. 

It was as she had thought. Justin had actually seen Yara before. 

He must have remembered afterward even though he could not recognize me at first glance. 

Natalie remained calm, but Samuel could still see the anxiety she was going through from her eyes. 

Hence, he did not respond to what Justin had said. 

Instead, he said, “That‘s it for tonight. Let‘s head back.” 

Seeing Samuel‘s darkened expression, Justin realized he had just made a grave mistake. He should not be talking about the twins‘ biological mother in front of Natalie, so he became quiet. 

“Is Susan‘s birthday celebration over?” Natalie asked. 

“From the front, it‘s still going on. But it‘s already over behind the scenes,” Samuel said casually with narrowed eyes. 

Once they were back at the mansion, Natalie went back to her room to rest and prepare for their return trip to Dellmoor the next day. 

However, Justin was reluctant to leave. He dragged Samuel into the study to continue the topic he could not talk about in front of Natalie. 

“Samuel, I really saw Yara at the banquet just now. On top of that, it was because of her that Jane called me a scumbag.” 

Justin was very honest about what he was saying to Samuel, but the lukewarm response he received from his audience was totally unexpected.

Instead of going to his room, Samuel headed to Natalie‘s. As soon as he opened the door, he noticed she had already fallen asleep fully dressed with the lights still on. 

down her back, most probably to lessen the irritation of the fabric on the skin, exposing her fair and beautiful back. 

Under the warm light of the bedroom, her skin shined as though it was porcelain. 

Samuel walked to her side and whispered into her ear with his deep voice, “Are you asleep? You should get changed first.” 

“Don‘t talk, Sweetheart.” Natalie turned around and murmured. “Mommy‘s very tired.” 

Samuel frowned. 

She thought I was Xavian. 

Kissing her was not something unusual for Samuel, but with how delicate Natalie looked after drinking, the self–control that he prided himself on instantly crumbled as he impatiently pressed his lips onto hers.
