The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 430

Chapter 430 Liabilities

Yara, Franklin, and Sophia continued running around the hospital building.

The children used all their might to escape from the woman, but their bodies seemed to be reaching their limits after running for some time.

“I think that woman is still chasing after us.” Sophia could barely catch her breath as she continued to run. Her pace had evidently slowed. “F-Franklin… What do we do? I really… can’t run anymore.”

“Just hold on a little while longer, Sophia.”

The boy encouraged his sister, but he was reaching his limit as well.

That woman is going to catch up to us sooner or later if this continues.

An emergency exit caught his eyes. He quickly pushed the door open and dragged the girl into the dim passageway.

“This way, Sophia.”

“Franklin?”

“Shh. Stay here. We can’t make a sound, all right? Otherwise, she’s going to find us.”

“Okay.”

The boy was panting heavily, and Yara wasn’t doing any better. She had almost sprained her ankle while trying to catch up to them.

Seeing that the children had made their way into the emergency exit, she didn’t hesitate to follow.

However, she realized that they were nowhere to be seen when she was inside.

“What are you running for, Franklin and Sophia? I am your biological mother. I gave birth to you, so do you think I’d harm you?”

It was completely silent in the passageway aside from Yara’s questioning voice.

She continued to mumble to herself, “Let me tell you, it doesn’t matter how much you dislike me. There’s no denying that you’re blood-related to me. The more you rebel against me, the more it shows how unfilial and ungrateful you are. It means that that woman has failed in teaching you guys!”
