Chapter 415
At that moment, Samuel was filled with so much rage that he seemed like he had been possessed by a demon straight from hell.
“Where did you hide her? Answer me now!” commanded Samuel after grabbing Zayden by the collar.
Zayden’s anger was quickly replaced by fear when facing Samuel’s fury, but still, he tried to put on a brave face. “I have no idea who you’re talking about. What do you want, Samuel? What you did tonight was unacceptable. Not only did you disrespect me, but you also disrespect my entire family.”
“He’s right! You let go Zayden this instant!” Charles would never let anything bad happen to his precious grandson.
Scarlett, too, tried to stop Samuel by grabbing the man’s wrist. “What are you doing, Samuel? I know you’re angry that you can’t find someone dear to you, but taking it out on my brother isn’t going to help. Please just let him go!”
Still, Samuel would not listen to a word the Hamiltons said. With his eyes narrowed, Samuel tightened his grip as he continued to threaten Zayden, “I’m going to ask you one last time, Zayden. Where did you hide Natalie?”
As hard as Zayden struggled to break free, he could not. The man noticed that it was getting more difficult to breathe, so he started to panic.
“Who is Natalie? I don’t know anybody by that name! I swear! How the heck am I supposed to hide someone I don’t even know?” responded Zayden, grimacing.
“The woman who kicked you into the swimming pool. Where is she?”
“How is that related to the person you’re looking for?” asked Zayden in a baffled expression.
“The woman who kicked into the pool is the one I’m looking for.”
Immediately, Zayden felt relieved that he had not gotten the chance to get back at Natalie, for that meant he had nothing to do with the woman’s disappearance. Gosh, that was close!”
I swear I didn’t do anything to her, Samuel! If you want, I can swear on my whole family’s life. I admit that I did think about getting payback, but I haven’t had the chance to do anything like that yet. I really don’t know where she has gone!”
