Chapter 1214
Samuel's eyes narrowed. He then responded slowly, “I'll respect Sophia's decision. I'll not stop her from leaving if
she has found the love of her life.”
Upon hearing that, Yana gave Hans a glare.
Her intimidating gaze compelled him to remain silent.
Natalie almost burst out laughing when she met Samuel's deep gaze. She could not believe Yana and Hans fell for
Samuel's words. He wouldn't have stayed so calm if he were in that position. I bet he'll cry buckets on Sophia's
wedding day.
As the adults bantered about arranged marriages, the children chatted amongst themselves.
Xavian turned his head and asked, “Clayton, if you're not interested in Summer, I can take her as my wife when she
grows up.”
“What makes you think I don't like her?” Clayton wiggled the finger that Summer grabbed onto and said with a

Little did they know that the joke they made today would become a reality in about twenty years, but that would be
a story for another time.
Since Yana and Hans decided to stay for dinner, Emma did her best to prepare a sumptuous meal for the guests.
After the meal, Natalie checked Yana's pulse one more time.
Yana's vision had deteriorated due to insufficient postpartum care, and her mood swing also had a significant
impact on her liver. Since the liver was closely linked to eye health, the noticeable decline in her vision during this
period could be attributed to the effects on her liver.
Once Natalie had identified the symptoms, she prescribed medication to alleviate the strain on Yana's liver and
improve her vision. In addition, she advised Yana to take better care of her eyes.
Hans was relieved that Natalie was there to take care of Yana's eyes. He stood beside her quietly, noting all the
care tips Natalie gave him so that he could learn to look after Yana and make the postpartum period a little more
bearable.
After Yana and Hans left, Natalie stood on the terrace, gazing at the full moon in the sky.
The full moon shimmered like a radiant jade disc suspended in the night sky, mesmerizing her sight and captivating
her attention.
While leaning against the railing by the terrace, she began to recall all the struggles she had been through. Being
present and admiring the moon's beauty made her feel as if she were dreaming.
After heaving a faint sigh, Natalie heard a man's low and magnetic voice behind her.
“What are you sighing about?”
Natalie instinctively turned her head and found that Samuel had unknowingly come behind her, standing close
enough that his lips seemed to brush past hers as she turned.
“W-What are you doing here?” Natalie asked.
“Am I not allowed to be here?” Samuel didn't reach out to embrace Natalie, but he also didn't seem to have any
intention of leaving.
Despite maintaining an awkward distance from her, he intentionally let his warm breath caress her delicate face.

“You were too engrossed in your thoughts,” Samuel replied.
Natalie did not deny it. She smiled and replied, “Mm, maybe.”
“What were you thinking about?” Samuel was curious.
“Tonight's moon reminded me of the beautiful moon I saw on the third day after giving birth to Xavian and Clayton,”
Natalie murmured, looking up at the moon again. “At that time, Yara took Franklin and Sophia from me, and I
thought she killed them in retaliation against me. I was so heartbroken that I wanted to seek revenge on Yara, but
after looking at myself in the mirror, I realized I had nothing except Xavian and Clayton. People always say the full
moon symbolizes reunion, but at that time, whenever I looked at it, I recalled my mother's passing, how my father
and sister wanted me dead, and the death of my two newborns.”
Despite the pain they caused, the memories were so vivid that Natalie knew she would never be able to forget
them.
However, had she not endured those hardships over the last five years, she would not have had the motivation to
dedicate herself to accumulating knowledge and transforming into the person she became today.
Samuel wrapped his manly arms around Natalie's waist, hugging her tightly from behind.
