Chapter 41

This is Grandpa John’s home. Why can’t I be here?” Samuel raised his eyebrow.

After all, John favored Samuel.

“Breakfast is light today. Do you like it?” Josie didn’t even look at 1tenry. She clenched her fingers nervously, trying to initiate a conversation with Samuel.

It was a desperate attempt at dispelling the panic within her.

“I’m not picky about food.” Samuel took the plate of breakfast from the butler and smiled politely. “Thank you, Arthur

Arthur nodded amicably.

Henry didn’t say much on Arthur’s account, but his fiery gaze remained locked on Josie.

Josie felt the burning pain in her neck, and she couldn’t help recalling the nightmare last night.

“Eat more. Finish this egg as well,” said Samuel. He, too, treated Josie like the apple of his eye.

Josie nodded. At present, she cherished her health more than anything.

Henry was sitting across from Josie, and his face darkened. He thought, “Whenever I told Josie to eat more, she would refuse to do so. She wouldn’t even swallow another mouthful of oatmeal!”

Henry couldn’t believe that Josie would finish the eggs after Samuel coaxed her into doing so.

“Is the milk still hot?” Samuel ignored Henry, and his eyes remained locked on Josie.

Gritting his teeth, Henry threw away the fork in his hand and got up to leave.

Josie took a deep breath and looked at Samuel. “Why did you deliberately annoy him? Aren’t you two good friends?”

“Though they say bros before gals, my beloved is still far more important than him,” said Samuel, sarcastic as ever.

Josie couldn’t help chuckling. Samuel was an amazing person. He was ruthless but at the same time amusing, too,

Hearing Josie’s laughter, Henry stopped and looked back. He clenched his fingers more tightly.

After breakfast, Samuel walked with Josie to the cemetery. Henry had the illusion that he was not included by the two of them, so he left in the car in a huff.

Josie, come home with me tonight. It’s Grandpa John’s death anniversary today, so my grandpa must be in a bad mood,” said Samuel, seeking Josie’s consent.

“Okay.” Josie thought for a while and nodded.

Lewis had been in poor health these years, so Josie thought she should take time to visit him.

“By the way, do help me plead for mercy so that I could go home as soon as possible.” Samuel blinked at Josie.

Josie breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Samuel didn’t deliberately decide to be her neighbor. He was probably driven out of his home and had nowhere to go.
