The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72

Natalie continued to struggle but to no avail. Samuel’s large palm clutched her hand tightly without the intention of letting go.

For some reason, Natalie felt loved when Samuel’s palm was pressed against the back of her hand.

It had been a long time since someone held her hand so tightly and dearly after her mother’s death.

At that moment, she glanced at Samuel’s face and felt a strange warmth fill her heart.

Samuel’s loving and gentle attitude toward Natalie was witnessed by the female teachers.

“Did you guys see what happened just now?”

“Mr. Bowers is treating that ugly woman so nicely! He didn’t even get angry when that woman’s lips touched his. When he looked at her, there was love in his eyes!”

CCT

“Exactly! Do you think she is his girlfriend? Would she be Mr. Franklin and Ms. Sophia’s mother in the future?”

As the female teachers discussed, they found the whole situation somewhat absurd and unbelievable. However, what happened just now was undeniably true.

Just then, the art teacher, Molly Larkins, said with a firm voice, “That’s impossible!”

“Why do you say so? Didn’t you see what happened just now?” another female teacher questioned Molly.

“Yes, I saw what happened, and that’s why I’m sure it’s impossible! It was an accident when the woman’s lips touched Mr. Bowers!. Judging by Mr. Bowers’ status and standards, do you guys really think he would be interested in a woman like her?” Molly lifted her chin and said disdainfully.

If that woman was a stunning beauty, then it‘s reasonable to say that Mr. Bowers is in love with her. However, that woman is not pretty at all. Instead, she is quite ugly. 

In terms of appearance, every single female teacher who was present was prettier

than Natalie.

Immediately, the women changed their opinions.

“I think Mr. Bowers has better taste.”

“That woman’s face is full of freckles! It would take a lot of courage to kiss her.”

Am I not prettier than that woman? I guess I‘m too shy and reserved. That‘s why I missed out on countless opportunities to befriend Mr. Bowers. 

I don‘t care who she is! I‘m going to teach her a lesson.
