The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 978

Emma was also relieved to see Jerome getting along with the five kids.

I've heard from them that Ms. Nichols is a very capable woman. However, even the strongest of women would find it challenging to raise five little ones.

Earlier that morning, Emma had also made a point to observe Jerome discreetly as he helped her make breakfast. He did not say much, but he was neat and thorough, putting as much effort into preparing breakfast for the children as he would if he were their biological father.

Anyway, I've not seen any sign of the kids' father here. It'd be a good thing if Ms. Nichols and the children had Ms. Sutton to care for them.

The quintet ate with worry in their hearts while Emma watched them with buoyant spirits. Only Natalie focused on tucking into her meal, oblivious to what the others were feeling and thinking.

After all, she and Jerome were very close.

In fact, he was like a younger brother to her.

Hence, regardless of how well he treated her, she had never thought of their relationship in that way.

A younger brother falling for her?

In her eyes, that was impossible!

As Natalie ate, she reached for the tablet on the table and began browsing the morning news.

The hottest news that morning was about Olivia exposing a famous actress to hormones and framing Dream Jewelry for it.

As a result, the Jones family's Cupid collection for the latest season had to be postponed indefinitely, and their reputation was in tatters, thus causing the company's stock prices to plummet.

The news showed the Jones family's office building, the mansion where they lived, and Bridger and the other family members.

Although the camera panned past the family quickly, Natalie still caught a glimpse of them. Bridger seemed to have aged overnight, Jada's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and even the usually arrogant Jerry looked dispirited.

After watching a little while longer, she turned off the tablet.
