The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 704

Chapter 704 Always Believe Me

“What is it, then?” Samuel lifted her by the chin to make her look at him.

Natalie wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and buried her face in his chest. “It’s nothing. I just got some sand in my eyes, that’s all.”

“Really?”

“Of course! I have you, the four sweethearts, and many other people to keep me company now! What could possibly make me sad?” Natalie replied while nuzzling against his chest.

Samuel patted her gently on the head. “Come on, I’ll take you home.”

“Okay.”

Samuel then drove Natalie back to the Bowers residence.

As it was quite late by the time they got there, the four kids had already gone to bed.

“Welcome home! You two must be hungry after spending such a long day outside! I’ll whip up something in the kitchen right away!” Gavin said when he saw them return.

“That won’t be necessary. I’m sure you’re just as tired, Gavin. We’ll cook some simple dishes ourselves, so please go get some rest,” Samuel replied as he took his coat off and rolled up his shirt sleeves.

Gavin nodded. “All right, then. Good night, you two.”

Natalie waited until Gavin left before turning toward Samuel. “But, I don’t really know how to-”

“Don’t worry. I’ll do the cooking, so you just wait in the dining room. I’ll bring the food over once it’s done,” Samuel said while giving her an affectionate pinch on the nose.

“Okay!”

Samuel then started peeling some prawns and marinating them in olive oil, garlic and pepper. Once that was done, he seared them in a pan with some butter and oil.

About forty minutes later, Samuel came out of the kitchen with two bowls of piping hot garlic prawns in hand.
