The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 937

“It just happened,” he replied coldly.

“You're lying.” She could not help laughing softly, curling her lips upward. “If it happened once, it's a coincidence. However, it has happened twice and then three times. It has happened yet again... So please don't tell me that your man protecting me tonight was also a coincidence.”

“You can interpret this any way you like.”

Silence filled the room.

Natalie was confident in her ability to read people. Even though she might not see through everyone, at the very least, she could understand most of the people she came across. Yet, she just could not understand this man. She could not even be sure if he was friend or foe.

This man always helps me but has never asked for anything in return.

This was not just strange.

It was... extremely weird.

“I'm grateful that you have saved me before.” Natalie raised her delicate face, her almond-shaped eyes filled with determination. “Nevertheless, I don't want you to protect me. I am not someone special to you. You have no right to be concerned over me. My life and death have nothing to do with you!”

She did not like owing anyone anything.

She especially did not like owing these unexplained favors.

The moment she finished speaking, he clenched his fists in frustration as blood surged in his chest. With difficulty, he asked, “Then... how may I protect you?”

“It just happened,” he replied coldly.

“You're lying.” She could not help laughing softly, curling her lips upward. “If it happened once, it's a coincidence. However, it has happened twice and then three times. It has happened yet again... So please don't tell me that your man protecting me tonight was also a coincidence.”

“Only Samuel Bowers can...” Natalie's eyes were filled with bitterness as she smiled. “Ha! How could you be him? Mr. York, there are so many good women in the world, so don't use this kind of method to get close to me. It is impossible for me to open my heart to anyone.”
