The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 460

Chapter 460 Making Small Sacrifices For Big Gains

Thomas finally took a good look at Natalie.

Thomas did not even pay attention to her the last time she came to his place with Yandel.

Now that she spoke, Thomas observed her and realized that her demeanor was no second to Yandel himself.

Not only were her features exquisite, but she also gave off a forbidding and confident vibe, compelling people around her to listen to her.

Since Thomas got to where he was today because of the Bayer family, he had things easy for most of his life. This was the first time he felt he was ensnared by someone younger than him.

When Yeva heard what Natalie had to say, she stomped and complained, “I don’t want handbags! I want to buy some jade stones. I insist on that! It’s either you get me that or you sleep with your old wife for the rest of your life. I’m not seeing you ever again.”

Yandel sniggered. “Aw, Mr. Nichols, it seems like this lady is angry. You should do something. These stones aren’t that expensive. Besides, who knows you’ll really lucky today? I would just buy a few if I were you.”

Thomas was caught between a stone and a hard place. On one hand, his mistress was pressuring him; on the other, Yandel was projecting himself as if he knew better.

The bells were ringing at the stone-gambling site.

This further stoked Thomas to take a rash decision. “All right! Let’s try our luck today!”

“Yay! I knew you wouldn’t let me down!” Yeva exclaimed in thrill when the final verdict was given.

A sly smirk curved on Natalie’s lips.

Finally, she could see sweet revenge delivered. She felt the hatred in her heart could finally be appeased.

Meanwhile, Samuel had been watching the four of them closely. He had got his new cup of tea, and Weston was pedantically attending to him.

He realized that Samuel had not taken his eyes off the screen ever since he started watching it. In fact, Samuel did not even spare a look at Weston.

“Mr. Bowers—”

“Stop talking.”

Before Weston could continue his explanation, he was already cut off.

He looked at Samuel helplessly, not knowing what his next recourse should be.

Samuel was already in a foul mood when Yandel put his arm around Natalie’s shoulder.

Yandel was Natalie’s trusted confidant and employee. Besides, Natalie and Yandel must be up to an important task now that she put on a mask, so Samuel could not help but wonder what was it that moved the both of them to take such a resort, but it still vexed him as time passed.
