Chapter 728 Pamper
“I was thinking that rumors are just rumors. They’re not credible at all.” Natalie stared at Samuel with bright eyes.
Samuel was toying with her hand as he questioned, “What kind of rumors?”
“You being cold and celibate and how you stay away from women…” Natalie blabbed every rumor she had ever
heard about him. “I bet those who spread the rumors would get the shock of their lives if they could see you like
this.”
Samuel chuckled as he leaned closer to her ear and whispered, “Those people weren’t wrong. I’m only like this now
because I’m with you. I don’t have any interest in other women.”
This girl has the innocence of a young girl, yet sometimes, she has a dominant temperament that can rule the
world. There are times when she’s cunning, and there are also times when she’s aloof. She’s like a treasure that is
full of surprises every day.
I’m lucky to have met her before Shawn, Christopher, and Nikolai did. Otherwise, my life would’ve been filled with

He had watched Natalie returning barb for barb at the news conference from the beginning to the end. However,
he was curious as to how she did it.
“How did you get the recording?”
“It was nothing.” Natalie smiled. “I just used some tricks. I put the recorder on Thomas to catch him in his act. If he
is as dumb as I think, he might still be clueless as to where I got the recording from.”
Samuel looked at Natalie with shining eyes as he brushed her nose proudly. “I was more or less worried for you
before the press conference, but it looks like I underestimated you.”
Natalie nodded.
She still had a few regrets from the press conference, such as the matter involving the drug molecule she got from
Melissa’s blood and other patients. At that time, she didn’t reveal any of it for fear that it would set off turmoil in
Chanaea.
That also meant she couldn’t exact the befitting punishment onto Thomas and Yara.
At most, the press conference had only tarnished Thomas’ and Dexmed Pharmaceutical’s image, bringing down
Dexmed Pharmaceutical from its glory. However, it wasn’t enough to damage its core.
After that confrontation, I’m sure there’ll be obstacles down the path waiting for Dream and me. However, before I
brave that storm, I’m going to enjoy the peace first.
Natalie’s tense body could finally relax. She gently snuggled against his chest like a languid kitten and soon fell
asleep.
“Nat, what do you want for dinner tonight?” Samuel asked softly.
Natalie’s curled lashes twitched slightly as her nostrils expanded and constricted from her even breathing.
Upon lowering his head, Samuel noticed the dark circles under her eyes. He knew she had been shouldering a lot of
burden and responsibility as she faced Dream’s financial crisis and the pressuring public opinion.
Yet, she didn’t shed a single tear as she faced all those difficulties and didn’t blame anyone. She merely carried

She’s exactly like the old me.
Hence, he understood the pain she felt. It was a feeling that not many could bear, so his heart ached for her all the
more.
Samuel gently laid her head against his shoulder so that she could sleep more comfortably.
When Billy stopped the car and was about to open the back passenger door, he caught Samuel’s gesture for him to
keep silent. Catching on to Samuel’s intention, Billy sensibly moved away from the car and allowed Natalie to
continue her rest.
That went on until dusk.
Natalie was finally feeling better after the nap. When she opened her eyes, she realized she had been leaning on
Samuel’s shoulder the entire time. With a glimpse at the window, she noticed that the sky had turned dark.
“How’s your nap?”
“I-I think I napped for quite a while.” Natalie bit her lip guiltily and looked at his shoulder. “You could have woken me
up. How’s your shoulder? Is it numb?”
