Chapter 1000
“To register our marriage, of course,” Natalie said in a hoarse voice while biting her lips. She steadied herself and
continued, “I finally know Justin didn't lie to me. And I also know you've decorated the greenhouse for me, so I'll
take that as a marriage proposal. So now we're just a step away from becoming husband and wife.”
Samuel's forehead creased even deeper upon hearing Natalie's words.
“I'm not doing this,” Samuel rejected her proposal indifferently.
“Why not?” Natalie lowered her eyes and refused to give in. “You have sacrificed your life to save me. I should have
married you a long time ago. I don't know much about the toxins in your body, and I'm not sure what I can do to
get rid of them.”

and I'll be your Mrs. Bowers for the rest of your life!” Natalie meant every word she said.
She did not know what the future would be like, but she did not want to live in regret.
Samuel looked at Natalie with a complicated expression and said icily, “Stop being so stubborn. Have you ever
thought of the future?”
“The future? Nobody knows what the future holds.” Natalie refused to budge. “I don't know what the future will be
like, but I want to cherish the time I have with you. I'll not let you go!”
Natalie's eyes turned red. Though she was smiling, tears still streamed down her cheeks.
The two of them were still standing outside the city hall.
Samuel frowned with a deadpan expression, whereas Natalie's face was tear-streaked. The city hall's employees
and couples could not help but glance at them when they walked in and out of the building.
“How could the man stand there and watch the girl cry? He should be consoling that poor girl!”
“I hope that handsome man is not a jerk. Did he chicken out? But they're already here at the city hall!”
“Oh, dear. I feel sorry for the girl...”
Samuel and Natalie heard all the scathing remarks the crowd made.
Samuel clenched his fists but still had that indifferent look on his face.
Natalie had made up her mind. We must register our marriage today, and I'll not take no for an answer.
Marrying Samuel was the only way to keep him by her side. Otherwise, he might still run away from me.
Natalie bit her lips hard. She started tearing up and voiced her grievance, “You're the father to my four kids. How
could you not think of their future? I don't mind people gossiping about me behind my back, but what if they look

down on the kids?”
All the passersby started gasping in sheer disbelief upon hearing that. What? Unbelievable!
They were all surprised to learn that the young couple had four children together! How did they do it?
Everyone turned their attention to Natalie.
A sharp glint flashed across Samuel's eyes, and he gave all the passersby a side-eye. Those people might not have
any bad intentions, but he did not like the way they looked at her.
Natalie blinked to get rid of the tears dangling on her eyelashes. She walked up to Samuel, held his hands, and said
vulnerably, “I've swallowed my pride and begged you to marry me. Are you trying to make a laughing stock? I have
dignity too!”
“You think what you did was for my own good. Yes, I understand where you're coming from, but I want to marry
you. I want to be your one and only wife!” she added.
Samuel's heart skipped a beat when he heard that.
“Do you still have the heart to turn me down?”
