The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 775

Chapter 775 Reward Applicable Only Here

Samuel came back a little late that night.

Knowing that Natalie was in the study, he took off her coat and headed straight there.

When he arrived, Samuel found that the door of the study was opened a crack as opposed to being fully closed. He raised his hand and knocked on the door before walking in.

Hearing the knock on the door, Natalie smiled at the sight of Samuel.

“You’re back?”

Samuel walked to Natalie’s side and found several books on Loang’s history and architecture on the desk. He picked one up at random. “When did you suddenly become interested in Loang?”

“I’d lived in Loang for a year,” Natalie said with one hand on her cheek. “The local customs appeal to me very much. “Dream’s presence in Chanaea is already a little saturated, in my opinion. As a groundwork for future plans, I’m thinking of expanding overseas by getting started in Loang. On the one hand, Loang and Chanaea share an origin to have similar cultures and traditions. On the other, I am relatively familiar with there…”

There’s another reason. The key.

Natalie flipped through these books in an attempt to find some clues about the jade key.

Having the instinctive feeling that the key was more than just a beautiful artifact, she was curious to find out what it opened.

As her inferences were still preliminary, Natalie did not feel comfortable sharing them with Samuel.

Samuel put down the book in his hand and rested them on both sides of Natalie’s hips. “Gavin told me you adopted a little girl today,” he said as his eyes twinkled.

“I was about to talk to you about this,” Natalie explained, “I went to the orphanage with Diane today and I signed the papers as soon as I met Yumi. I’m sorry, I should have discussed it with you instead of making this decision without authorization, I-”

“Thought you did something wrong?” Samuel asked in a low voice.

“It’s just… Though I stand by what I did, I feel guilty for neglecting your feelings,” Natalie admitted.
