Chapter 688 Do You Have A Problem With That
Samuel fell into a long silence after he heard the whole account of what happened.
Seeing this, Natalie held his hands and smiled at him. “It was a narrow escape, isn’t it?”
“Are you really feeling proud of yourself?” he asked coldly.
“Of course,” she replied confidently. “That was the best thing I could think of at that time. That was my last resort!”
“Seriously, Nat…”
Samuel did not know what else to say.
What she said was true, but the emotional torment was just too much for him to bear.
“Samuel, I know you’re worried about me,” she answered, caressing his face. “But it’s all behind us already. Please don’t be unhappy. We should look on the bright side. I managed to save myself and give Yara a dose of her own medicine.”
Samuel was at a loss for words. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he caved.
“By the way, the doctor said you have a hematoma, so you’ll have to rest until you feel better. You’re not getting out of this bed unless I permit it.”
“Come on, I’m a doctor myself.”
“I refuse to let you treat yourself. I’ll only allow you to move around once you get better. If you don’t get well soon, then it’s either I seek revenge in your stead, or you close this chapter completely.”
“Samuel!”
“Do you have a problem with that?”
“No.”
Natalie actually wanted to have a second say, but knowing full well that Samuel was doing all this because of her, she relented. Besides, she had to now consider her four children in everything she did, for she cherished them more than she did her own life.
Although Natalie had given in, Samuel knew she did so not out of fear, but out of love.
He pulled her into his arms and kissed her tenderly.
