Chapter 748 Who Says He Is Dead
“I-I…” Billy began to stammer, clearly not expecting Natalie to approach him instead.
“It’s never too late for revenge, Billy, and you know what I’m like. I’ll spare you if you tell me the truth,” Natalie said mischievously. “Think about it. But you’ll be sorry if you stay quiet.”
Billy instantly broke out in a cold sweat. Natalie was the mother of the four precious children and the woman who had his boss’ heart. Getting on her bad side would be far more terrifying than incurring Samuel’s wrath!
“Mr. Bowers has… the secrets of all those people who tried to slander you. He kicked them out of the family… before they could do anything to you,” explained Billy as he closed his eyes.
Natalie’s eyes widened in shock upon hearing that.
Meanwhile, Samuel glanced at Billy frostily. “Who said you could talk? I guess you’re not afraid of p*ssing me off, huh?”
Billy continued to sweat. Oh, God. This is just too much.
“Don’t make things hard for him, Samuel. Blame it on me if you’re mad,” Natalie insisted. “I didn’t have a knife on his throat, but I still kind of forced him to talk.”
The man narrowed his eyes as he asked, “People are going to question my authority if you do this.”
“So, it’s okay for my authority to be questioned?”
The pair gazed at each other for a few seconds. Soon, the imposing look in Samuel’s eyes turned into one of vanquishment and adoration.
“There won’t be a next time.”
“Okay.”
They conversed as though there was no one else around, sending the three elders and the rest of the Bowers family into a state of utter confusion. This man who had just banished Reuben for Natalie’s sake was then being so doting toward the woman they all thought was Yara.
“What… on earth is going on?” Miguel couldn’t help but ask while stroking his white beard.
