The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 358

By the time Samuel and Natalie returned from the police station where she got her ankle monitor removed and got changed, it was already three in the morning.

Gavin, who was still up, stood at the door to welcome both of them home.

Given that he was in his sixties, his eyes were bloodshot due to his inability to stay up late. The moment he saw Samuel and Natalie, he greeted, “Mr. Samuel, Ms. Nichols, you’re finally back!”

Natalie felt bad that they had caused Gavin to wait up. “Gavin, actually, you don’t have to-”

“You’re the one who should stop feeling guilty.” Gavin shook his head with a smile. “Considering my age, I can’t sleep whenever I’m worried. So, I really wasn’t waiting up for both of you on purpose. Now that you’re safe, I’ll be able to sleep till the afternoon.”

“Thank you, Gavin.”

“Don’t mention it. This is my duty as a servant.”

Once upon a time, Gavin had wanted Yara to marry Samuel. That way, Franklin and Sophia would have a complete family.

As time went by, his desire gradually changed after he saw how Franklin and Sophia loved and depended on Natalie.

Not only was Natalie gentle and forgiving, but she also treated the servants with respect.

Deep down, Gavin had already treated her as if she was the lady of the house.

“Ms. Nichols, are you hungry? Shall I order someone to prepare supper?” Gavin asked.

“It’s all right. I’m not hungry.”
