A Cue for Happiness

Chapter 212 Tragedy

Natalie’s eyelashes fluttered as her hands stopped.

Even though Ida had been through a lot, she couldn’t help but sigh again as she recalled the past. “Shanice Zarate was a famous and talented socialite in Dellmoor when she was young. After she was married into the Bowers family, she gave birth to Mr. Samuel and Mr. Steven. However, one night, when her sons were fast asleep, she cut her own wrists. Mr. Samuel was only five at that time. He woke up after he smelled the scent of blood. The moment his eyes opened, he saw his mother covered in blood as she passed away.”

Natalie knew rich families like the Bowers family had a lot of secrets, but she never thought Samuel had to live with such a tragic experience. He was five years old. Clayton and Xavian are five years old this year. I can’t imagine the despair and pain Samuel went through after seeing his mother die by suicide.

“Natalie…” Ida held her hand tightly. “I hope you’ll be the one to bring warmth into Mr. Samuel’s heart.”

Natalie wasn’t sure how to respond to that, but upon seeing the desperate hope in the old woman’s eyes, she nodded reluctantly as a vague answer.
