Chapter 306 You Still Have Me Samuel drove his Hummer and sent Natalie to Major Crimes Unit.
They did not talk to each other throughout the journey.
Samuel allowed Natalie to go to work, but that did not mean he fully agreed with what she was doing.
Never in his life had he met a woman like Natalie. She was calm, mischievous, smart, determined, and an excellent strategist. All these qualities could put any average Joe to shame.
When all the socialites were immersing in the joy of spending their familyâs wealth, Natalie had trained herself to be independent and invincible.
Every time Samuel thought how perfect this woman was, his heart would skip a beat. But at the same time, he was constantly worried about her.
When they arrived at the Major Crimes Unit, Samuel leaned forward to unbuckle Natalieâs safety belt.
They were so close to each other that they could feel each otherâs breath. Natalie could not help but started breathing more heavily. âYou...â
âI donât expect you to rely on me, Nat, but Iâll always be there for you, if you need a shoulder to cry on,â Samuel looked into her eyes and said.
Natalieâs heart started racing upon hearing Samuelâs deep and magnetic voice.
Heâs so good with his words!
Natalie responded with a grin. âI know.â
Even after she had left the car, she could not stop smiling.
She used to think that she was not capable of understanding what love meant, but this man seemed to have gradually melted her stone-cold heart. How could she not fall for him?
Should I just bite my lips and take the plunge?
Meanwhile, Yara was accompanying Kenneth in the garden of his residence.
It was a sophisticated garden that had a stream and a bridge. There was even a manmade hill and a courtyard in that plot of land. Though the fall season had arrived, the garden still looked lush and green, thanks to the daily maintenance by the professional gardener.
Ever since her scandal broke, Yara had stopped performing and was now spending days accompanying Kenneth.
Yara was thrilled when she first arrived. She tried to be as obedient and understanding as possible, as she wanted to leave a good impression on Kenneth.
That was why she forced herself to play all kinds of sports and board games with him.
But as time went by, Yara began to feel she was trapped in this large but boring cage.
Besides staying by Kennethâs side all the time, she had to act as if she was enjoying every moment of it.
But what troubled her the most was, she did not get to meet Samuel at all.
She began to question her decision. Why am I here wasting my time with this old man?
âYara, letâs go and watch opera after this, okay?â
Yara did not pay attention to what Kenneth said, as she was deep in thought.
She only responded to the elderly man when he repeated it. âOkay, Grandpa.â
âWhat were you thinking just now?â Kenneth narrowed his eyes and asked.
âGrandpa, Iâm thinking of Franklin and Sophia...â Yara lowered her head to hide her reddened eyes. âI had not been there for them ever since they were born. I guess thatâs why they dislike me.â
She continued, âI donât expect Samuel to marry me, but Franklin and Sophia are my kids. I couldnât help but feel upset about it.â
Kenneth responded with a sigh upon seeing tears welling up in Yaraâs eyes.
âYou canât just feel sorry for yourself and do nothing. Pay more attention to the kids then.â
âYes, Grandpa.â
âCome, letâs go.â
âWhere are we going?â
Kenneth answered in a deep voice, âForget about the show. Letâs go and fetch the kids from school.â
Yara froze for a moment. But I just only want to meet Samuel, not that evil twins!
But since Kenneth had made up his mind, she could only play along. With a grin, she said, âGreat.â
The children walked out of the pre-school when their class ended.
The moment the children immediately recognized Yara, who stood next to Kenneth, their expression turned grim.
What is this woman doing here?
