The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 104

Samuel was worried about Natalie’s injury. Never in a million years did he expect her to refuse his help so coldly.

Nevertheless, his arm snaked under Natalie’s knee and lifted her in a bridal carry before walking toward his car.

“Samuel Bowers! Let me go right now! Hey! Are you even listening to what I’m saying? You jerk! You clearly hear me screaming in your ear, so why are you pretending not to understand?”

Samuel cast a casual glance at Natalie. “So what if you agreed to stay away from me? You may have made that promise to Yara, but I didn’t promise her anything.”

Upon hearing that bold statement, Natalie was so surprised that she was at a loss for words.

“You-”

“Think of it as me forcing you to stay in my life. Don’t worry. I’ll bear the consequences for doing so.” Samuel’s eyes shined brightly with hope. He then continued, “Now, be a good girl and stay still in my arms. You’ll lose more blood if you keep wiggling around, and I can assure you that losing blood will worsen your suffering during the recovery process.”

Natalie was used to getting injured.

Even so, she could not help but fall for his kind gesture.

At the same time, she was annoyed at herself for having mixed feelings; she had already decided to cut ties with Samuel, yet she still yearned for his care.

“Don’t order me around with that mocking tone of yours!” she eventually scoffed.
