Chapter 856 Injustice For Who
Samuel drawled, “Yes, that is the truth.”
“I don’t believe it.” Natalie leveled her gaze at Samuel. “You’re lying to me.”
“I have no reason to lie to you.”
“Then why did you have Justin bring me here?” Natalie chewed on her lip. “Didn’t you want to propose to me?”
“I was planning to propose today but not to you.” Samuel’s eyes darkened as his tone turned cold. “The reason I asked him to bring you here was to end everything here tonight.”
He reached for Luna’s hand gently and pecked the back of her hand.
“Clearing up my relationship with you is something I owe to Luna.” Samuel continued stonily, “She’s hesitant about my relationship with you, so I want to show her my determination to cutting off all ties with you during this ceremony.”
All this nonsense is coming out of the mouth of the man that loves me the most. Everything seems real. His story matches his actions, but I just can’t believe it. The sincere feelings I felt from every minute we spent together weren’t something he could erase with a few words.
“Samuel, I’m not going to fall for your lie so easily.” Natalie gritted her teeth and stared at him coldly. “Are you sure you want to cut off all ties with me? Once our ties are severed, I’ll marry someone else and be his wife.”
She thought Samuel would lose his composure, but instead, he seemed relieved.
“If you truly love him and he can treat you well like I used to, I think it’s fine for you to marry him.” Samuel stared pointedly at Natalie with sincerity in his gaze. “After all, it was my fault for being confused about the woman I truly love. I’m not going to blame you for my mistake.”
“You!”
He didn’t get jealous as I expected. Instead, he was giving me his blessing for the start of a new relationship. It seemed like he had already let go of his relationship with me in such a short period.
Luna could feel how hard he was holding himself back from his grip. He loves her so much yet has to act like he doesn’t.
“Ms. Nichols, I know you’re upset.” Luna said, “But since Samuel chose to marry me, that meant he had thought things through. I hope you can accept the reality and we can all live our lives peacefully. Let’s not get involved in each other’s lives anymore.”
Samuel nodded with agreement. “Have you heard everything Luna said?”
Tears were still falling down Natalie’s eyes.
Samuel and Luna had thrown my heart on the ground and trampled on it. I should keep my head high and leave without looking back if I want to preserve my pride. Yet my body and heart refuse to take another step away from here. The pain I feel now is equivalent to the pain I felt six years ago in that fire.
Then, the door to the greenhouse slammed open, and Steven strode in hurriedly.
Trailing behind him was Justin tugging on him. “What are you doing? Your brother is proposing. Come on, let’s-”
However, when Justin studied the scene in front of him, his words were stuck in his throat.
Steven caught the tears on Natalie’s face and Samuel’s grip on Luna’s hand and immediately realized what was happening.
He stood beside Natalie and accused, “Samuel, are you still human? How can you do this? Natalie had given you so much, and this is how you repay her?”
“Is this how you speak to your brother?” Samuel barked back.
“Do you think you deserve my respect?”
“Are you feeling injustice for Natalie?” Samuel asked as his gaze filled with mockery. “Or are you feeling injustice for yourself?”
