The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 375

Chapter 375

Upon finishing her song, Sophia cast her sparkly eyes at Natalie and asked, “Mommy, how’s my singing?”

“You did a great job,” Natalie complimented with a smile.

Sophia’s three brothers, all of whom adored her a lot, looked at her with their puppy eyes as they requested for her to sing the songs again.

But perhaps because she had received so much love from her brothers, the meek little girl had learned to throw tantrums too. “I don’t want to. I’m thirsty after singing for so long…”

Natalie’s lips curled into a smile as she gently caressed Sophia’s head.

It’s great that this girl has a little temper. Otherwise, her brothers would have to be constantly worried about her if she’s soft-tempered and a pushover.

As Natalie was too focused on the children and coupled with the fact that Samuel had arranged to visit this resort, she instinctively lowered her alertness. Therefore, she did not notice that someone was following them behind the bushes and was slowly opening the wooden basket.

Watching the sight of how joyful Natalie and the four children were, Jolene could not help but think of Yara’s words.

Ms. Yara has painstakingly bore them for nine months, yet they’re not close to her? What’s worst is that they even acknowledge a woman who has nothing to do with them as their mother?

Thinking about that reminded her of her failed marriage, and perhaps that made her relate to Yara’s situation even better.

Anyone who breaks a family apart is evil.

Jolene initially had some reservations about releasing the venomous snake. Nonetheless, she no longer found it so difficult to execute the plan after she recalled the pain she went through.

As the wooden basket got unlocked, a snake as thick as the size of a baby’s arm slithered out.

It was common to spot snakes around the resort due to its location.

Of course, that venomous snake was not something Jolene had found within a short period.

Because it was winter, many bugs and reptiles would gather near the resort to keep warm. A while ago, when she was chasing them away, she happened to see that snake and thus kept it in the wooden basket as she had thought of soaking it in wine later.

She would never have thought that it would be of use now!

Sticking its bright red-colored forked tongue out, the snake glided through the dried leaves and

Among the kids, Sophia was the first to come around since she was the only one who saw the entire process of how Natalie had blocked her from the danger. Shocked, tears began rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably.

“Mommy, are you alright?” The little girl was panicking. “Is there anyone who can save my mommy? Please hurry here to save my mommy! Her hand was bitten by a poisonous snake!”

Upon hearing Sophia’s screams, Franklin, Clayton, and Xavian eventually came to their senses.

“Mommy, do you think you can perform acupuncture on yourself?” Xavian asked.

“Not really…” Natalie’s lip, by then, had turned slightly purple. “I’m unable to exert any strength on my hand right now. Besides, I have to use the crystal needle on the right acupoint; otherwise, there won’t be any effect.”

Franklin frowned. “I’ll go find Daddy. I’m sure he’ll have a solution!”

As soon as his words rang out, the boy ran off to look for Samuel while Sophia stayed by Natalie’s side to keep her company.

At the same time, Xavian was already on his phone searching for hospitals or veterinary clinics around the vicinity.

As for Clayton, he used a bifurcated wooden stick to hold the snake in place so that they could
