The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 890

“Still single...”

Patricia's gaze was fixated on Natalie. Judging from Natalie's answer, it meant that Jerome still had a chance.

“Natalie, you're only twenty-four. There's plenty of time and you should be cautious in choosing your life partner.

There's no rush to get married. It's one thing to capitalize on your youth, but marrying an atrocious partner will be

tormenting, just like how your mother suffered throughout the years.”

Patricia was advising Natalie genuinely based on her own experience.

Natalie could tell that Patricia was speaking from her heart, but it was a second too late.

Natalie never believed in love. It was unimaginable to experience the grievance of loving someone, only for one's

heart to be trampled by betrayal. The devastating pain would be impossible to move on from.

“I understand.”

“It's a great opportunity to expand your company in Loang. It will be perfect if you can stay at Yaleview from now

on.” Patricia's eyes glistened with joy. “With Jerome and your Uncle Daniel around, no one can bully you in

Yaleview!”

“Thank you so much.”

After dinner, Natalie played a few rounds of chess with Daniel.

Having waited two years to challenge Natalie again, Daniel, despite his valiant efforts, was once again defeated by

Natalie.

Daniel nonetheless took it lightly. As opposed to being frustrated, he took pleasure in the challenge.

“Still single...”

Patricia's gaze was fixated on Natalie. Judging from Natalie's answer, it meant that Jerome still had a chance.

It was eight o'clock at night.

Natalie bid goodbye to Patricia and Daniel.

Daniel was still analyzing the sophisticated moves by Natalie in the last two rounds of chess.

Patricia however interrupted him and lifted the chessboard up. “Hey, you! It must be tough for Jerome, given that

you're his father.”

“Put down the chess board!” Daniel frowned. “What do you mean? Are you saying that it's a disgrace for Jerome to

have me as his father?”

“Do you even understand your child?”

“Why do you think otherwise?”

“Jerome liked Natalie ever since he was young. Don't tell me that you're oblivious to this?” Patrica said sternly.

“I knew Natalie ever since she was a small child. She's a perfect ten. What happened five years ago is in the past. If

Jerome is able to look past it, so am I. If Natalie is willing to get together with Jerome, we'll treat Xavian and Clayton

just like our own grandchildren. It shouldn't be an issue raising them. Besides, Natalie and Jerome will also have

their own kids in the future. I'm warning you not to mess up their relationship! If you happen to cause a ruckus, I'm

going to end you!”

Unlike Patricia, Daniel still had his doubts.

However, Patricia was right. Natalie was simply too perfect. Not only his wife and his son liked her, but even Daniel

himself was also fond of her.

Doniel cleored his throot ond soid, “I know whot to do. I'll get in touch with him ond get him to opply for his unused

leove.”

“All right. Do thot!” Potricio's foce lit up ot the thought of o future with Notolie.

Notolie, who hod just left the Sutton residence, wos under the impression thot Potricio simply liked her os o person.

It never occurred to Notolie thot Potrico wonted her to be Potricio's doughter-in-low.

Bock ot the monsion.

Notolie stood ot o corner while storing ot her five children.

Among them, Sophio's medicol skills still required further guidonce from Notolie.

After o while, Notolie osked Sophio to join her in o one-on-one session.

Notolie hod grown immune to Sophio's meteoric improvements over such o short spon of time. Looking ot her

progress, Sophio hod olreody mostered the syllobus for the first ond second grodes in the university for troditionol

medicine.

Notolie storted crofting o new syllobus to be odopted into Sophio's leorning progrom. After thot, she wonted to

corry Sophio bock to her room.

Out of o sudden, Sophio curled her orms oround Notolie's neck. Her dork, round eyes welled up, ond she seemed

like she wonted to soy something.

Notolie quickly osked, “Sophio, whot do you wont to tell me?”

“Mommy, I miss Doddy.” Sophio tightened her grip ond spoke in o tender monner.

Daniel cleared his throat and said, “I know what to do. I'll get in touch with him and get him to apply for his unused

leave.”

“All right. Do that!” Patricia's face lit up at the thought of a future with Natalie.

Natalie, who had just left the Sutton residence, was under the impression that Patricia simply liked her as a person.

It never occurred to Natalie that Patrica wanted her to be Patricia's daughter-in-law.

Back at the mansion.

Natalie stood at a corner while staring at her five children.

Among them, Sophia's medical skills still required further guidance from Natalie.

After a while, Natalie asked Sophia to join her in a one-on-one session.

Natalie had grown immune to Sophia's meteoric improvements over such a short span of time. Looking at her

progress, Sophia had already mastered the syllabus for the first and second grades in the university for traditional

medicine.

Natalie started crafting a new syllabus to be adopted into Sophia's learning program. After that, she wanted to

carry Sophia back to her room.

Out of a sudden, Sophia curled her arms around Natalie's neck. Her dark, round eyes welled up, and she seemed

like she wanted to say something.

Natalie quickly asked, “Sophia, what do you want to tell me?”

“Mommy, I miss Daddy.” Sophia tightened her grip and spoke in a tender manner.
