The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 413

Chapter 413

Immediately, Charles’ face hardened. “Wait a second. What is this? Are you in love, Samuel?”

“Yes, I am,” admitted Samuel directly. “I don’t doubt that Scarlett is a fine woman, but I have to respectfully decline meeting with her because I already have someone I want to spend the rest of my life with.”

With his hope shattered, Charles was suddenly at a loss for words.

The two remained silent for a short while before Zayden and Scarlett walked over to them.

“Samuel, I heard that you were out of town when I came home from overseas, so imagine my surprise when I realized that you’re here at my brother’s birthday celebration!” voiced Scarlett excitedly while gazing intently at the man.

“I just so happened to close a deal early and managed to make it back in time. There’s someone here that I haven’t seen for a long time, so I decided to give her a surprise.”

Someone he hasn’t seen for a long time? Well, it has been two years since we last saw each other.Naturally, Scarlett assumed that Samuel was talking about her.

.

“I’m sure that someone is very happy to see you too.” Scarlett then tried to reach out and hold Samuel by the arm, but the man quickly got out of the way. “Samuel?”

“I have to go meet her soon, actually. In fact, I was just about to excuse myself.” With that, Samuel had made it abundantly clear that he was not interested in Scarlett at all.
