The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 987

After Jerome had left, Franklin and the others didn't return to their room.

Instead, they gathered around Natalie.

Five pairs of big, obsidian eyes fixated on her lips that were still red and swollen.

“Is something the matter?” Natalie quirked an eyebrow.

“Mommy...” Sophia's gaze flickered, and she pointed at Natalie's mouth with a petite finger. “Did you kiss Mr. Sutton?”

Hearing her question, Natalie gulped.

I've managed to pull the wool over Jerome's eyes, but I forgot that there are still the kids.

“Who told you that this will happen because of kissing?” she countered, her stomach knotting.

Sophia blinked her crystal-clear eyes and answered solemnly, “Once, we saw a couple kissing by the road for a long time. After that, the woman's mouth became swollen.”

“We all saw it, and the woman's mouth was swollen like yours!” Yumi seconded.

The other three children nodded earnestly.

Seeing that all five children were staring at her without blinking their eyes, Natalie flushed slightly and chastised, “The lot of you are still young, so why are you showing so much concern for such indecent things instead of studying hard?”

“Did you really kiss Mr. Sutton, Mommy?” Clayton asked with a crestfallen look.

Natalie lifted her hand and flicked his forehead.

At once, Clayton cradled his head in pain. “Ouch! That hurt! Why did you hit me, Mommy?”
