Chapter 619 Jealousy
“What are you doing, Samuel?” Natalie gave him a disgruntled look.
“It’s late. Why do you still have to look at your phone?” he leaned over and whispered, “It’s been a busy day. Now that you are with me, you shouldn’t think of anyone else.”
His voice sounded low and sexy to her. Feeling his warm breath against her ear, she felt her heart skip a beat.
Although she had done more intimate things with him, she still felt shy whenever he looked at her.
It was a slight tease. Yet, she felt her body heat up.
“I can’t do that. I have specially set up my notifications, so I can tell from the ringtone that it was an important message.”
Samuel pursed his lips in disapproval. However, he still released her after some time. In a disappointed tone, he muttered, “I know you may think I’m being childish if I say this, but sometimes, I wish you can be less of a workaholic. You seem like you only care about Yandel, Ross, and the rest.”
Listening to those words, Natalie could not help but chuckle.
“What should I do? I think I smell jealousy,” she teased.
Samuel remained silent, but he stared straight into her eyes as though he had admitted to it.
“You are really-” Natalie was in disbelief.
“Fine!” Samuel immediately confessed. “I am jealous.”
It took her by surprise. After regaining her composure, she hooked her arms around his neck and kissed the corner of his lips. “Do you still envy them? I only kiss the one person I love.”
The last sentence pleased Samuel.
“Mmm.” The corners of his lips lifted. He reached out his hand to pick up the phone by his bedside table and handed it to her. “Here you go.”
Glancing at her phone, Natalie noticed the message was from Yandel.
Boss, according to your instructions, I sent some people to Nichol’s residence with a wreath for Melissa. They noticed Yvonne and Thomas were arguing. Shortly after, they even saw someone being taken to the mental hospital.
Natalie’s heart thumped.
Yvonne was a mistress who had kicked Jennie out of the household. Therefore, she had her fair share of being a bully.
However, she had accompanied Thomas through ups and downs over the last twenty years. Yet, as soon as he lost his daughter, he had the guts to send his wife to the mental hospital.
This time, he was stepping out of the line.
After some thought, Natalie sent a message back to Yandel.
Secretly help her out.
Within seconds, Yandel sent an acknowledgement to her.
Life at the mental hospital would be hard. Besides, Thomas must have thought of letting Yvonne rot in the hospital. Only then could he bring his mistress back to the hospital.
Natalie could deal with Thomas with the help of Yvonne, and it would be a waste to let that woman die in the hospital alone.
After Natalie sent the message, the expression on her face dimmed.
Even when she went to bed, she felt a heavyweight in her heart.
While she pitied Yvonne, she had more sympathy for Jennie.
Jennie entrusted all her youth to the man she loved most in the past. However, she was forced to leave the family and had to change her surname.
With that in mind, Natalie knew she had to avenge her mother.
Her hands and feet grew colder. While she was in a daze, she felt a man’s chest pressing against her. He wrapped his arms around her, providing her warmth.
Seeing how restless she seemed, Samuel could guess that she had started to plot her revenge. He could not help but feel a dull ache in his heart because he knew she was like an eagle that soared in the sky and not a delicate bird that should be kept in a cage.
There was no point in trying to stop her.
“Silly girl, do you know how formidable your opponent is?” Samuel murmured, “I can’t stop you from getting revenge and chasing back for everything you deserve. Despite so, you don’t have to worry. Even if the sky falls, I will bear the weight for you. You can let go of everything and do whatever you want. No matter what, I’ll do everything to protect you.”
