Chapter 281
As a result of Samuel‘s sudden aggressiveness, Natalie‘s lips were slightly torn from the bite.
The metallic taste of blood started to intermingle with their breaths.
However, Samuel deepened the kiss instead of stopping as if he wanted to reach the depths of
Natalie‘s soul.
It was a kiss meant to punish Natalie, but for some reason, Samuel thought that her lips were so soft
and sweet that he could not get enough of them.
On the other hand, Natalie opened her eyes and stared at Samuel, who was kissing her so fiercely that
she was forced to a corner of the car.
She felt like a hole had formed within her heart, through which a gust of cold wind was being sucked in.
It was so chilling that it hurt. However, her rationality and composure came rushing back to her at the
same time.
Right from the start, she and Samuel were from different worlds.
Samuel did not understand her true self.
At the same time, she knew nothing about him.
Who is Franklin and Sophia‘s biological mother? What‘s his relationship with Yara? Does Samuel truly like me? Or is he just eager for something fresh and would abandon me after he‘s tired of me?
Natalie rarely thought about these questions. However, when she seriously considered them, she

Samuel only released her from his arms after a long while.
Panting like a wild beast, he raised his head and captured the hint of coldness and aloofness in
Natalie‘s eyes.
“Samuel, I‘m grateful that you protected me in regard to the Todd family in Livingsfill.” Natalie cast her
gaze downward and mumbled, “Now that we‘ve returned to Dellmoor, everything should be back to
normal. Regardless of whether you care about it or not, I‘ll think of other ways to repay the favor to
you.”
“Natalie Nichols, are you trying to provoke me on purpose?”
Samuel was so furious that he called Natalie by her full name.
“I‘m not, but I have no control over what you want to do.”
“I said that either you can either give up your body or your heart to me to repay the favor.” Samuel
pinched her chin and stated domineeringly, “Everything else is out of the question.”
“In that case, I won‘t repay the favor. Just pretend that you‘ve done some charity.”
Natalie was shouldering too many burdens.
Even if Samuel treasured her a lot, she would never involve herself with her enemy‘s ally.
She had been too careless in Livingsfill. Thomas and Yvonne‘s timely appearance reminded her of the
fact that she and Samuel belonged to two opposing parties.
“You must repay the favor.”
Natalie remained silent for a moment.
“Don‘t worry. I have enough time and patience to drag things out with you.”
Samuel slid his finger from Natalie‘s chin to her lips. Stroking her lips carelessly, he spoke in a deep
and hoarse voice.
VV
A glint flashed across his eyes, and it was filled with a man‘s lust for a woman.
Naturally, Natalie understood his intentions.
However, she could never respond to him.
The Hummer stopped behind the Bowers residence.
Natalie and Samuel got out of the vehicle before entering the house one after the other.
Gavin walked over. “Hello, Mr. Samuel and Ms. Natalie.”
“Hello, Gavin. Have Xavian and Clayton been good? What about Sophia and Franklin?” Natalie‘s voice
became gentler at the mention of the four children.
“They‘re very obedient,” replied Gavin with a smile. “The two young boys are very polite and

been looking at your photo and crying their hearts
out.”
Natalie was rendered speechless.
Well...
At the thought of the four kids looking at her photos and sobbing sadly, Natalie was amused.
“Are they upstairs? Let me go up and see them.”
“Yes.”
Natalie ignored Samuel, who was standing behind her. After speaking to Gavin, she turned around and
went upstairs.
Samuel‘s gaze became grim as he stared at her back.
Why is she so gentle to the four kids but so eager to cut off all ties with me? I‘m worthless to her, huh?
However, he still followed behind Natalie and went up the stairs.
Natalie felt comforted when she saw Sophia, Franklin, Xavian, and Clayton.
As the other boys always gave in to Sophia, she was the first to run to Natalie and jump into her arms.
“I‘ve missed you so much!”
Sophia was an adorable and sweet child. When she stared at Natalie with her teary eyes, Natalie felt
like her heart instantly melted.
However, when Sophia spotted the wound on Natalie‘s lips, she could not help but exclaim in surprise
and point at it.
“Why are your lips hurt? Is it painful?”
