The Alpha's Four Hidden Heirs (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 19

NATALIE

VA

The minute I got back home, Xavier ran out on his short stubby legs to welcome me back. However, upon seeing my face without the mask, he knitted his brows. “Mommy, what happened to your mouth? Is it an allergic reaction?” He looked at me with a weird and confused look on his face.

If I weren’t still so discombobulated by my interaction with Samuel, I might’ve even laughed or smiled because he was too cute.

I lowered my head upon hearing his words. Guilt and shame crawled over me as I met his clear, innocent eyes.

A–Allergic reaction? This clearly isn’t. However, I can’t possibly tell a five–year–old child what a kiss is. Besides, how do I explain the kiss with Samuel?

As I could not find a better explanation, she decided to go with the flow.

“Yes! I–It’s an allergic reaction…” I tell him.

“I see…” He says but he’s a smart boy, he can sometimes tell when something is amiss.

“Mhm. That’s all there is to it.”

Blinking his big eyes, He asked in an anxious yet serious tone, “Mommy, what about your ear? Why is it bleeding?” He asks me.

His eyes were pure and innocent, with worry written all in them.

I choked on my own saliva upon hearing that. I was so in my own head that I forgot to wipe off the blood before I came in but I also can’t tell him the real reason why I’m bleeding.

I cleared my throat before replying, “Sweetheart, thank goodness that you didn’t visit Granny’s grave on the mountain with me today. There were so many insects! My lips and ears were all bitten by them.”

“Mommy, I’ll go and get you some ointment.” He tells me as he runs out of the living room and I let out a sigh of relief.

Despite his high intelligence, Xavier was still merely five years old. Hence, he did not find my words suspicious.

I felt relieved upon seeing that he took my word for it. I then proceeded to curse at Samuel ferociously on the inside.

Tsk tsk! It seems like Yara failed to satisfy Samuel’s desire. I was dragged to this, thanks to her!

So does this mean that they are dating or something? But at first he actually didn’t look to happy to see me. God I’m so confused.

Xavier soon returned with an anti–inflammation ointment and his laptop.

After I took the ointment from him, he placed the laptop in front of me and rubbed his tiny hands eagerly.

“Where’s your brother?” I ask him.

“He’s on his gaming system.” He tells me.

Of course he is, once he gets on that thing it’s like the whole world disappears for him, I have to force him out of thete to eat and I have Theo to thank for that.

“Why is your laptop here my boy?” I ask him, because it’s clear from the look on his face that he has something to tell me.

“Mommy, I’ve found a man who’s identical to Clayton and me. Clayton agrees that we do look alike after seeing the photo I sent.” He says with a huge grin on his face.

Oh no, not this again, I thought that we were over this. I took my sons hand in mine as he looked up at me with those cute eyes of his.

“Are you guys still searching for your ideal dad because you don’t believe that man is your father?” I ask him.

After leaving Delmoore, I had asked Theo to investigate the man who had slept with me six years ago. The intel showed that Yara had hired an outlaw named Jim Zarate.

He had vanished after receiving Yara’s money, and there was no trace of him at all.

The odds were that Yara had taken his life so that she could conceal her crime.

Hence, I could not find any other evidence. Not planning to hide the truth about the children’s father’s identity, I had shown them the only photo I had.

To my surprise, my children denied my belief about Jim being their biological father and firmly stated that it had got to be someone else.

Owing to that, the two fellows walked their own paths, seeking their real father. But they hadn’t brought up this topic in a while so I thought that they had finally given up, but I guess I was

wrong.

Clayton was scouted as a child actor. He had accepted the offer, hoping that his real father could see him on the TV.

Meanwhile, Xavier learned to code and hack with the help of Theo, so that he could search for his real father on the internet.

“That man looks hideous and doesn’t resemble us at all! He can’t possibly be our dad! On the contrary, the man I found today looks more like our daddy!” Xavierpouted grumpily.

I hated this, I hated crushing his spirit and being the bad guy.

Fine. He is persistent when it comes to this. It seems like I have no choice. but to take a look at what he found.

“All right. Why don’t you show me the man? Let me see if you and he look alike.”

He fiddled with the laptop upon hearing that. Soon enough, a photo appeared on the screen.

In it, the man had a refined silhouette, a pair of eyes that looked like the dark abyss, and exquisite facial features.

Even though he wasn’t the only one in the photograph, he looked outstanding among crowd. Everyone would instantly lock their gazes on him at first glance.

“Mommy, what do you think? He’s handsome, right?”

On closer look, I realised that I know this man, it’s Alpha Samuel Bowers?

I sucked in a breath when I recognized the man in the photo.

the

It was none other than Samuel, the man who I just saw less than an hour ago who had pressed me against the bookshelves in the cafe and kissed me forcefully earlier.

No, there’s no way that’s he is the boys real father. No, it’s not possible.
