The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 170

Chapter 170 

Steven was very agitated as he spoke, and when Samuel heard the former mention that Natalie was dead, he completely lost his cool. The anger he had been suppressing rushed out like a tide. 

Narrowing his eyes, he swung his fist at Steven and screamed, “What did you just say?! Natalie‘s not dead! She‘s just missing, and she‘ll return soon!” 

Steven licked the wound at the corner of his lips and laughed out loud. “Who are you trying to fool, Sam?”. 

As soon as Steven finished his sentence, Samuel landed another punch on his face, causing him to stagger backward. 

Steven grimaced in pain and said, “You can lie to others, and you can make me shut up. But would you be able to deceive yourself? She drowned somewhere under the water. You might not even be able to find her body.” 

Samuel clenched his fists and was ready to punch Steven again, but moments later, he calmed down. “You can say whatever you want, but don‘t get in my way.” 

Then, he turned to Billy and said, “Escort him out of here and let the others know to never allow him back on site.” 

Steven was shocked but not surprised. 

I‘m his brother. How could he treat me like this? He‘s crazy! He‘s gone crazy because of a woman! 

Steven‘s words hardly affected Samuel. The latter continued having faith that Natalie would return.

Meanwhile, back at the Nichols residence, Xavian‘s eyes were already swollen from all the crying 

He was not able to be of much help at the search and rescue site since he was too young. Hence, he could only spend most of the time waiting at home for any news about his mother. 

I hate that I‘m only five years old... Why am I not strong enough to protect Mommy? 

He felt scared and helpless. 

Even though Samuel had assured him that everything would be all right, he was still terrified of losing Natalie. 

Just then, the doorbell rang. 

Ding Dong!
