The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 1033

Calmly glancing at Natalie, Samuel spoke through his thin lips. “This woman here is my wife, Ms. Leitz. Who are you, and why should your suffering concern me?”

Samuel's words got Heidi all worked up and made her blood boil.

Raising a denunciatory finger toward Natalie, she stated her case with ferocity. “Is this woman allowed to denigrate others and do as she pleased just because she's your wife? The poison in my hands and the marks around my throat are all her doing! As head of the Bowers family, how could you allow her to commit these unspeakable deeds? Do you mean to say that you are willing to abet her unconditionally?”

Heidi felt extremely confident about herself after having said what she did because she did not believe there to be true love within the circle of the rich.

Geert was deemed to be sufficiently devoted to her mother, yet it was not enough to motivate him to come by the border town to seek her mother and herself out before Helma's mother passed on.

Surely Samuel's love for Natalie only extends as far as her ability to behave herself as well? Once she crossed the line, Samuel would definitely distance himself from her, just as Father did with Mother.

Surprisingly, Samuel looked Heidi unwaveringly in the eye and enunciated, word for word, “That's right. I'd be willing to stand by her, no matter what. Even if she wished to torch houses and take lives, I'd always believe that she'd have some overwhelming reasons for doing so. Prior to today, I've already had my subordinate convey what I had to say to you in courtesy. Yet, you continue to be persistent. You do not seem to like your own father very much, Ms. Leitz, but what have you got apart from what he has given you? As someone who has nothing, you've no right to compare yourself to Nat!”
