The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 46

The siblings’ reactions were out of Natalie’s expectations.

“Don’t say that. What if your mommy has her reasons?” Natalie tried. “There’s no mother in this world who does not love her child. She would feel extremely hurt if she heard what you just said.”

Franklin and Sophia liked Natalie a lot, but they had to disagree with her.

Franklin turned his head to the side and sneered. “That woman does not love us at all! She just wants to fulfill her celebrity dream. She’s using me and Sophia to gain favor with Daddy!”

Even Sophia, being the soft girl she was, disliked Yara.

“I could stay in contact with you guys. I can even promise to visit as frequently as I can.” This was Natalie’s first time appearing so determined in front of the children. “But I can’t promise the rest,” she concluded.

Although she adored the twins from the Bowers family, she could not just take care of them because of her liking toward them.

Not only would their mother oppose, but their father, Samuel, would do the same as well.
