The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 1094

After Natalie left the meditation room, she went to look for Anna.

Natalie had to scour through the entire place before finally finding the other woman in a remote spot of the monastery.

When Natalie found her, Anna was crouched in a corner, curling herself into a ball as she hugged her head with her arms. She was trying to cover her eyes and ears, and at the same time, she was mumbling under her breath, “No, no, no. Don't do this...”

It was as if Anna was deep in the throes of a nightmare.

Natalie bit down on her lower lip and slowly approached Anna. Then, she hugged her. “Anna...”

Instinctively, Anna shoved her away before casting panicking eyes on Natalie. When she finally registered Natalie's face, she relaxed and panted. “Natalie, it's... it's you...”

Even though Natalie did not ask Anna what happened, she could guess that Anna must have returned to her childhood nightmare after what she learned from Varre—Anna must have dreamed about the bloody way her mother had died in front of her.

Anna's pain was something Natalie could not empathize with.

She could not even put herself in Anna's shoes and began imagining the pain.

How cruel had that moment been?

“I'm sorry,” Natalie apologized as she hugged Anna again. “I'm really sorry... I didn't know my actions would make you suffer this way...”

Teers just kept flowing out of Anne's hollow eyes.
