Chapter 489 Daddy Are You Jealous âSamuel, I believe I can do well if only you let me stay beside you and the kids,â Yara swore as she toyed with her fingers.
Samuel shot her a death glare, furious at her suggestion.
âThere will never be such a chance.â
âSamuel...â
âThe only reason I endure you is that Grandpa likes you.â
He added, âIf you continue to have any unrealistic notion about anything else, even Grandpa wonât be able to protect you then.â
He bent down and gently scooped Sophia into his arm and reached for Franklinâs hand with his other arm. Next, he turned around and left.
Yara watched until he was gone from her sight.
The amusement park at night was bright like the stars in the sky.
His tall frame could easily attract the lingering gaze of the opposite gender just by looking at his back.
I could feel the distance when I talked to him previously, but now...
I can see rejection, hatred, and distaste in his eyes.
Maybe Iâm only Old Mr. Bowerâs caretaker in his eyes.
However, I donât want to be a soon-to-be eighty-year-old manâs caretaker... I want to be Samuelâs lawful wife!
Her tears flowed down her cheeks as she watched Samuelâs back on a winter night.
Meanwhile, Sophia circled her short arms over Samuelâs neck. Her eyes were still glassy from her crying earlier, but there was a smile on her lips.
Franklin looked up at Samuelâs side profile with admiration shining in his eyes. âDaddy! As expected of my daddy. You looked so cool when you said those words to Yara earlier.â
Samuel glanced at Sophia in his arms, then at Franklin holding onto his hand. âRemember to always stay far away from that woman.â
âGot it, Daddy.â
âOkay, Daddy.â
Franklin and Sophia nodded, agreeing obediently.
It was seven in the evening, and the colorful neon lights around the castle in the amusement park and trees lit up. The whole place looked like one written in fairy tales.
The beautiful view bedazzled Franklin and Sophia, causing their reluctance to leave.
âDaddy, itâs so pretty here!â Sophia tightened her arms around Samuelâs neck and asked, âCan we call Mommy, Xavian, and Clayton to join us?â
âYeah! Daddy, itâs a pity if only the three of us get to see such a pretty sight,â Franklin chimed in.
Itâs a beautiful night view. I wonder if Natalie likes it?
âAll right.â
Samuel released Franklinâs hand and reached for his phone to call Natalie.
Natalie had just picked up Xavian and Clayton when she got the call from him.
âAre you free now?â Samuelâs husky voice sounded from the phone.
âIâm with Xavian and Clayton at the moment.â Natalie paused briefly, then asked hesitantly, âWhatâs wrong?â
Sophia had been eavesdropping on their conversation with her ear against the back of Samuelâs phone. After hearing Natalieâs question, she immediately answered, âMommy! Daddy, Franklin, and I are at the amusement park! Itâs so pretty here! Bring Xavian and Clayton over to play with us.â
Natalieâs lips curled into a knowing smile hearing Sophiaâs baby voice.
How can I reject such an adorable little girlâs request?
âAll right. Iâll go over with them.â
âYay! Weâll be here waiting for you!â
The fear and sadness Sophia felt earlier from being bullied by Yara were gone and replaced with delight blooming in her heart.
After she hung up the phone, Samuel suddenly had a feeling that she would be his opponent for Natalieâs love instead of Franklin.
Feeling his gaze on her, she pouted. âDaddy, are you getting jealous now?â
