The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 41

Samuel’s calm breath started to turn heavy, and he withdrew his arm. Then, he turned to leave.

Looking at his back, Natalie was baffled by his weird attitude.

Didn’t he want to punch me in the face? Why hasn’t he said anything and just walked away?

She racked her brain for a long time but still could not figure it out. What did I do to anger him again?

“Where is Xavian?”

“He said he wanted to use the restroom urgently.”

“But, I didn’t see him on my way back here.”

Afraid that she would be worried, Ross offered, “Why don’t I go to the men’s restroom and look for him? After all, he is still a small kid.”

“There’s no need for that.” Natalie then took a gulp of her drink and smiled wryly. “You won’t find him in there. He must have wanted to go somewhere else but was afraid that you would be worried and decided to lie to you. Don’t treat him as a mere five-year-old kid; he’s more cunning than most adults.”
