The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 571

Chapter 571 Drug Has Taken Effect

A while later, they arrived back at the Bowers manor.

After visiting Samuel, instead of being in a better mood, Kenneth was feeling even more vexed.

For one, it was because he found out more details about the kidnapping incident from Samuel. Moreover, he had also noticed that he was getting increasingly fond of Natalie as the days went by…

Even though Sophia and Natalie were not blood-related and Natalie knew that the kidnappers were using Sophia as bait, she still took the bait willingly knowing that it would put her in a dangerous situation.

Judging by how Natalie was even willing to sacrifice her life for Sophia, it was no wonder that the twins were so fond of her.

The woman had always treated everyone around her sincerely without any motives.

While Kenneth was still deep in thought, Jefford, the butler, walked over and said, “Old Mr. Bowers, Ms. Yara is here to visit you!”

“Let her in,” Kenneth replied, snapping out of his daze.

“Understand.”

Yara quickly entered the house, and a short while later, she appeared in front of Kenneth.

“Grandpa…”

When the old man saw Yara, he suddenly felt that the woman, who had been by his side for the last five years, seemed like a stranger. As he did not know what to say, he merely nodded in acknowledgment.

Seeing that Kenneth had remained silent, Yara had no choice but to start the conversation, “Grandpa, I’m sure you would have heard about what happened to Melissa, right?”

“Yup, I’m aware.”

“Grandpa… I went to the morgue last night to verify her body with Dad and Aunt Yvonne. It was only then that I found out that that foolish girl had committed such a crazy and unforgivable act!”

After saying that, Yara got down to her knees in front of Kenneth.

“Yara?”

“Grandpa, sorry… I’m truly sorry…” Yara apologized while banging her forehead on the ground continuously. “Even though Melissa and I don’t have the same mother, we have grown up together and lived in the same house. No matter what, I’m still her elder sister, and I have failed to keep an eye on her, allowing her to hurt Sophia!”
