The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel)
Chapter 280

Chapter 280

Natalie's lips were still swollen. When she kept addressing him as “sir,” Samuel's temper immediately rose.

Very well! Very well indeed!

Samuel moved his grip from her wrist to her hand.

Unsatisfied with just holding her hand, Samuel pried open her clenched fist. He then interlaced his fingers with hers and held her hand firmly.

"What are you doing?”

“Since I have a dignified status and you respect me, you have no right to reject me.”

"You."

Natalie stared at Samuel speechlessly, wondering how she should draw boundaries with him.

She held a grudge toward Yara.

Even if she was her twin sister, she would never forgive Yara.

“Let go of me.”

"No."

Natalie tried to free herself from Samuel. Not only were her attempts futile, but he even tightened his grip.

“Return to the Bowers residence with me.”

"Why should 12"

"Are you abandoning Xavian and Clayton?” Samuel narrowed his eyes and threatened coldly, “I can afford to raise four children. I'll make them take my last name, Bowers, in the future.”

Natalie shot him a menacing glare the moment she heard that he wanted to snatch Clayton and Xavian away.

"Who said that I'm abandoning them, Samuel Bowers!”

“Follow me back, then.” Samuel said, “Otherwise, if they ask me where you've gone to, I'll say that you're abandoning them.”

“You're threatening me, Samuel.”

“If that's what you think, just listen to me.”

Natalie's weakness Xavian and Clayton.

She could ignore Samuel, Thomas, and the rest, but she could never stop caring about her dear children.

Samuel knew her Achilles’ heel so well that she had no choice but to follow his every whim.

Billy parked the Hummer at the entrance of the airport.

Although Natalie had agreed to follow Samuel back to the Bowers residence, she did not agree to sit in the back seat with him.

When she instinctively opened the door to the front seat, she realized that the door was locked. She could not pull it open no matter what.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Natalie knocked on the car window, signaling Billy to unlock the door.

However, despite knocking a few times, the car door was still locked.

“Don’t make things difficult for Billy.” Samuel opened the door to the back seat for her. “He won't dare to open the car door for you without my permission.”

Natalie took a deep breath before bending down and entering the vehicle's back seat.

When she and Samuel entered the Hummer, the atmosphere became unbearably awkward.

When Billy alighted the plane, he had not realized anything wrong between both of them. Within the blink of an eye, they had become so hostile with each other.

Billy kept reminding himself that he was nothing but an emotionless driving machine.

However, Natalie and Samuel's presences were too strong that he still broke out into cold sweat. It was after he heard the sound of the partition in the car rising that he heaved a sigh of relief, feeling like he had just been pardoned from death.

After the partition was raised, it separated the front and back of the car into two separate worlds. Natalie leaned against the car door closely. From the moment she entered the door, she had never spared Samuel a single glance. Instead, she kept staring at the scenery outside the window. Samuel was not dumb.

He immediately realized that Natalie was distancing herself from him.

He could already guess that the reason for Natalie's aloofness had something to do with the Nichols family.

However, as he did not know what had happened between her and the Nichols family, he was clueless as to why her reaction was so dramatic.

Since she was unwilling to go over to him, he would move closer to her.

Samuel leaned over, forcing Natalie to cower in a corner.

"Why are you hiding from me?"

“You're overthinking.” Natalie averted her gaze and added calmly, “I'm not hiding from you, nor do I want to be close to you.”

“You don’t want to?"

"Yes."

Natalie raised her head and nodded solemnly.

When Samuel saw that, he became very frustrated

You don't want to be close to me? Dream on! That's impossible—be it now or in the future!

Samuel moved away from her slightly. Just when Natalie thought he had understood her intention and was willing to keep a distance from her, he suddenly bit her lips
