A Cue for Love (Natalie and Samuel)

Chapter 1034 Crossing Samuel Bowers

Billy hesitated briefly before nodding. “Understood, Mr. Bowers.”

Likewise, the apprehensiveness was palpable on Natalie’s face when she regarded the floor bound and trembling Heidi.

When Samuel noticed that Natalie did not seem ready to leave, he clasped her diminutive hands within his own large mitts. “What’s on your mind, Nat?”

Biting down on her lip, Natalie did not know what to say. Heidi had it coming to her and isn’t deserving of my sympathy. And had Samuel not taken precautions, I might have suffered greatly at her hands even if I managed to escape. Though it seems fair for Samuel to give her a taste of her own medicine now, the fact remains that Heidi’s background is exceptional. No matter how deplorable she may be, she is still the daughter that Geert had recently reunited with.

Her mind continued to race.

Previously, when Samuel was not around, Geert could only be upset with her if he wanted someone to be upset with for whatever she did. With Samuel’s intervention, I fear that Geert might now direct his own ire toward him and the Bowers family that is centered around him instead. Seeing how closely the Bowers has been in collaboration with Loang, the Bowers family could face massive losses if the Leitzes wanted to make life difficult for him. There is no need for Samuel to forsake so much goodwill for my sake.

You’re a smart man yourself, Samuel, and must know the standing us Leitzes already enjoy in Loang. Our position will only grow in significance as soon as my sister becomes wedded to Prince Jonathan, the leader in the race to become the heir apparent to the crown. You should know that no matter what I did before, you’d be tarnishing the reputation of the Leitz family for daring to treat me this way! My father still feels guilt toward my mother, so there’s no way
