Chapter 867 Feeling Tortured
Yumi nodded. “Yeah! After we go to Loang, we must make sure not to mention Daddy in front of Mommy!”
“That’s not enough,” added Sophia with a pout. “When we are together with Mommy, we must help Daddy monitor her love life! If there are some stupid men going after her, we must eliminate all of them for Daddy’s sake.”
Everyone expressed their support for Sophia’s suggestion.
Xavian and Clayton exchanged a look and said, “Before, when Mommy didn’t wear that ugly hyper-realistic mask, there were a lot of weird men who pursued her. Things only got better after she wore that mask.”
Franklin nodded. “Sophia’s right! Daddy’s happiness will be in our hands from now on.”
“Yeah! He’s relying on us.”
The five kids stretched out their fists and put them together.
As the eldest, Franklin cleared his throat and declared, “With the five of us together, nothing can stop us!”
After he spoke, four child-like voices rang out.
“Nothing can stop us!”
“Nothing can stop us!”
“Nothing can stop us!”
“Nothing can stop us!”
Their faces and their eyes revealed an intense look of passion.
For these few days, Samuel did not return to the Bowers Residence. Instead, he stayed at Centurion Corporation.
When Justin tried to contact Samuel, he could not reach Samuel. Before he returned to Livingsfill, he wanted to meet Samuel again.
Hence, he went to Centurion Corporation.
Samuel glanced at Justin and asked, “What? Are you here to interrogate me too?”
“I’m in no position to do that,” said Justin with a frown. “I just don’t understand you… You’ve made all engagement preparations with Natalie in mind! Why did you change your fianceé at the last moment?”
Samuel replied expressionlessly, “Because I feel like it.”
“Yeah, that sounds simple enough.” Justin massaged his temples and said in frustration, “Actually, before your proposal, I called my sister and told her about it. Natalie overheard the conversation by accident.”
Samuel’s eyes narrowed in thought.
“What do you mean?”
“I’m saying that she already knew about the surprise beforehand, but she pretended to be oblivious in front of you.” Justin continued, “She thought that she was being clever, but she ended up receiving this unpleasant surprise from you instead.”
Samuel’s expression turned gloomier.
“Why are you telling me this?”
“Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?” Justin raised his eyebrows.
“Justin!”
“Samuel, if you want to hear the lie, it’s because I’m reporting everything to you—right down to the most irrelevant details.” Justin pouted. “If you want to hear the truth, it’s because I’m trying to seek justice for her! Regardless of what your intention was—be it out of goodwill or grievances—it’s too merciless to crush her hopes like that.”
Since he would be returning to Livingsfill the next day, Justin thought that he should just speak his mind.
Even if the sky fell, his sister could still back him up.
Justin left, leaving Samuel sitting at his desk and mulling over what he just said.
So she already knew… Yet, I pushed her away so ruthlessly that night. If Justin said that to provoke me, he has succeeded. This is what being tortured feels like, huh?
Soon, a week passed.
A plane descended from the blue sky and landed at the international airport of Yeringham, Loang’s capital city.
After landing, the door opened.
Everyone’s attention was immediately drawn to a lady in a brown windbreaker and jeans, as well as the five kids following her.
