The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 457

Chapter 457 Walking Right Into A Trap

Natalie won her first sum of capital which enabled her to start Dream from stone-gambling.

Yandel was there when she won the bet. She was only twenty-six back then. He witnessed how she came from a nobody to a big shot in the business world.

She was way thinner years back, but her eyes were spirited and observant. Even back then, Yandel could see the sparkles of determination shining in her eyes.

Her gaze was telling that winning was her only option, and that conviction made her stand out in the crowd.

When Yandel and Natalie were in a similar situation after all these years, both of them could not help but reminisce on the past.

“I’ll pass,” Natalie said, shaking her head. “What are the odds of actually getting a jade? I had nothing to lose years back, so I wouldn’t mind trying. Come to think of it, it’s rather ironic. I have anything I ever wanted now, but I lost the courage to even give it a try.”

When Lia and Ross overheard their conversation, they looked at Natalie in surprise, not knowing what to say about their unexpected discovery.

Both of them could not believe that their chairwoman used to do something this relentless. In fact, they wondered what was it that she could not do.

While they were looking at untreated stones, Natalie suddenly spotted a familiar figure.

It was Thomas. Beside him, was a fetching woman in a gown.

Her black and red gown augmented her fair skin, making her look all the more endearing as she lay in Thomas’ embrace.

This woman was not Yvonne, Thomas’ current wife.

Natalie was standing not far away from both of them. Their distance was close enough for Natalie to feel the intimate dynamic between the two of them. It was obvious that Thomas relished her company.

Back when he was still courting Yvonne, he was even willing to chase Natalie’s mother out from the Nichols family because he wanted to marry Yvonne. Natalie did not expect him to turn his back on his wife again.

She glared at them fiercely as they walked past.

Yandel and Ross stopped and turned around when they realized something was amiss.

“What’s the matter, Boss?” Yandel asked.

“Over there.”
