The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 803

Chapter 803 Benefits

A lump began to form in Natalie’s throat. It was after much effort did she manage to stop herself from crying.

On the rooftop, Samuel had saved her. It was her turn to save him!

She did not know how much time she had left, but if there was even a tiny chance of recovery, she would give everything to treat Samuel. At the thought of Samuel’s body deteriorating, it was as though a hole had been ripped out of Natalie’s chest. It was so heartbreaking that even breathing felt painful.

She could not afford to be careless, nor could she afford to waste any more time. From the shelf, she pulled out some herbs and inspecting them carefully before placing them together.

After going downstairs, she went to the kitchen, brought out a clay vessel and began to brew the medication.

A little over an hour passed.

After taking out the remains from the decoction, Natalie poured out a bowl of brown liquid.

Her reddened eyes did not escape Gavin’s notice. He could not help but feel concerned for her. “Um… are you…”

“I’m fine, Gavin.” Natalie cupped the hot bowl in her hands. “It’s Samuel. There are some issues with his body. But it’s okay. I will find a way to heal him, I promise.”

Natalie continued, “I can’t take care of the kids for now. I would need your assistance when it comes to that.”

Gavin felt uneasy with what he was hearing. Just as he was about to say a few more words, Natalie had made her way back upstairs with the bowl in her hand.

Back in the bedroom, Natalie walked toward the couch and looked at Samuel, who was sleeping soundly.

Even though less than two hours had passed since they got out from the car, Samuel showed more signs of aging. A few more gray hairs sprung up from his sideburns.

Natalie felt her urge to cry returning. Nonetheless, she fanned her tears away with her hands, afraid that Samuel would figure out what was wrong if she cried.

“Hey Samuel, the medicine is ready.” Natalie forced herself to smile in a relaxed manner. “Get up and drink it.”

At her voice, Samuel opened his eyes and looked at her face.

“Why do I need to take the medicine?”
