The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 408

Chapter 408

Scarlett could not resist scoffing inwardly as she scrutinized Natalie. What an ordinary-looking woman, let alone the freckles scattering on her cheeks! How could she catch the eye of such an omnipotent man from a prominent family like Samuel?

She had been restraining herself from revealing her affection toward Samuel. Even so, her self restraint was gone within seconds when she found out he had a fancy for such a plain-looking woman! Deep down, she wailed indignantly. No way! I can’t accept it!

Sensing Scarlett’s penetrative gaze on Natalie, Yana asked quizzically, “Scarlett, is there anything wrong?”

Forcing a smile, Scarlett uttered casually, “Oh! Nothing. I’m just feeling curious as I’ve never met her before. Yana, you seem to be close with her.”

Yana explained preemptively, “She’s my younger sister.”

Even though Scarlett had known that Natalie was Jason’s god-daughter long ago, she pretended to question with a look of innocence, “Ah! I never knew that you have a younger sister! Could it be your dad… cheated on your mom.”

Yana smiled and cut her off instantly. “Haha! Don’t overthink. Natalie is considered my benefactor, and my dad likes her too. That’s why he suggested taking her as his god-daughter so she’ll be part of the Weiss family. Thus, we’ll bring her along to attend any special occasions before she’s married.”

“Oh, I see.” Scarlett nodded and stretched out her hand to Natalie. “I’m Scarlett Hamilton. Nice to meet you.”

“I’m Natalie Nichols. Nice to meet you too,” Natalie responded courteously and shook hands with her.

Not long after that, Scarlett left after having some small talks with them.

Natalie could not refrain from furrowing her brows as she gazed at Scarlett’s retreating figure. She could not take a liking to this socialite with an impressive vibe of dignity.

After the session with Charles, Jason and the others left the inner hall and continued mingling with other guests.
