Chapter 709 My Woman

Moments later, Samuel was focused on the road, whereas Natalie was seated quietly next to him in the car.

Somehow, Samuel pulled the car to a halt by the riverbank instead of heading toward the Bowers residence.

The glittering neon lights along the riverbank cascaded on the surface of the river, forming kaleidoscopic reflections. Meanwhile, the night breeze blew across the riverbank, ruffling Samuel and Natalie’s hair.
