Chapter 301 I Will Educate You Later âSamuel, have you been waiting for me this whole time?â Natalie asked.
âYeah.â Samuelâs voice was as deep as usual.
A frown formed on his face when his gaze fell upon Natalieâs wounded arm. Although he didnât ask her about it, he had displeasure written all over his face.
âI thought Iâd be able to stay at the banquet till the end if I didnât bring you along, but it doesnât seem to make a difference!â
Natalie exclaimed with a chuckle before he could say anything.
Little did she know, her smile and laughter only stabbed at Samuelâs heart like a knife.
Thereâs no way she got those wounds by herself. Sheâs just pretending to be fine by laughing it off.
Samuel exuded a cold yet elegant aura when he drove with one hand on the steering wheel.
His grip on it grew increasingly tight as he glanced at her from time to time.
Da*n... This guy is getting increasingly difficult to fool... He doesnât limit my personal freedom, nor does he stop me from doing what I like. However, he really hates seeing me get hurt. I got a tiny chunk of my skin scraped off when I tried to save Jacyntha earlier. To make matters worse, Iâm wearing a white lace dress today! While the wound itself isnât serious, it does look very visually disturbing. If I tell Samuel itâs a minor injury, he might actually lock me up in bed for a month until it recovers!
Natalie let out a sigh at the thought of that. Eventually, she glanced at Samuel and said, âSamuel, my wound hurts.â
Samuel simply kept quiet.
Seeing as he wasnât responding, Natalie repeated herself in a more serious tone, âIt really hurts, Samuel. Please hurry up and take me home, okay? I want to get it treated...â
Despite her submissive attitude, all Samuel said was, âIâll teach you a lesson when we get back.â
As Samuel floored the accelerator, his sharp eyes caught sight of a Ferrari in the rear-view mirror.
Although both cars were only a few feet apart, the light from the Ferrariâs high beam headlamps illuminated the entire Hummer.
The man in the Ferrari was still inside the vehicle, but the tension between the two could clearly be felt.
Samuel narrowed his eyes and asked, âWhatâs your relationship with Christopher?â
Natalie didnât hate Christopher, but she didnât exactly like him either.
Of course, she hadnât forgotten about the favor she owed him. She was simply waiting for the perfect opportunity to present itself so she could return the favor.
âHeâs just a friend that I owe a favor to.â
âDo you like him?â Samuel pressed on.
Natalie replied without any hesitation, âNo.â
Samuel smiled and said after a brief pause, âGood, you can only like me for the rest of your life. Youâre not allowed to even admire other men, got it?â
His eyes were filled with an incredibly strong sense of possessiveness.
âWhat about you, then? Are you able to do the same for me? Can you also promise me not to admire other women?â Natalie asked.
Samuel stared deeply at her as he replied, âYes, I can.â
The two of them locked eyes, and Natalie found her heart racing when she looked at his devilishly handsome face up close.
Just like that, they sped off into the distance while Christopher watched with his fists tightly clenched.
He had tried investigating Natalie before, but it was extremely difficult to get any information on her.
Most of her files were protected with many layers of security, and people had even tried to stop him halfway through his investigation.
Even so, he didnât expect her to be involved with Samuel at all.
âHuh...â Christopher let out a wry chuckle.
Oh, Natalie... You gave me the hope to keep living and the urge to love someone. You got me drawn to this bright light of yours, so how could you make me give up on you?
