Chapter 321 Mask On

“Hmm.” Natalie nodded with a noncommittal grunt.

There are plenty of good-looking men in my social and professional circles. However, very few are more

handsome than Samuel.

Samuel chuckled in spite of himself.

“Then you’d better keep a close eye on me,” he said affectionately as he squeezed her tighter than

before.

Gasping for breath, she slammed her fists on his back. “Why should I? Let go of me. The children are

watching!”

The children merely gazed curiously at the couple.

Samuel begrudgingly let go of the woman in his arms and felt a strange emptiness as soon as he did so.

Meanwhile, Natalie had already walked toward the children who had her surrounded as they were very

fond of her.

With her hair lifted by a sudden gust of wind, speckles of gold sunlight glinted through the strands of her

hair. With a laugh as gentle as a babbling brook in spring, the children were enamored with her, to say

the least.

The four children were clad in identical uniforms of the kindergarten, which consisted of a shirt, pants,

and a smart black tie.

Despite differing slightly in appearance, every one of them had bright, intelligent eyes and features that

looked as if they were carved out of marble.

Samuel arrived behind them at his own pace.

As his gaze swept over Natalie and the children, his smile broadened.

I would never have expected this woman to stumble into my life like that six years ago. She has taught

me that there’s so much more to life.

The more he thought about her, the more reluctant he felt for her mask to be removed.

Being aware of how the face beneath that mask was so devastatingly beautiful, he would rather she

keep the plain-looking mask on and lessen the competition.

The only man in this world she has eyes for would be me.

Samuel and Natalie spent that night keeping the children company.

Natalie was, by default, the children’s bedtime storyteller. However, Sophia felt the need for a change.

“Daddy,” she purred. “Can you tell us a story tonight?”

Samuel was about to reject when he saw that Natalie was gazing at him with the same expectant

expression as the other four were.

“Do you really want a story?”

All five of them nodded as one.

As Samuel spent most of his time at work, most of his stories revolved around the same theme.

Occasionally, there would be an anecdote he was proud of about him defeating competitors in court.

However, he deemed that they would be inappropriate as bedtime stories.

“I-I have no stories to tell,” blurted Samuel, abashed.

“Read us this story,” Natalie said bossily, delighted at the discomfort she had managed to cause Samuel.

Upon receiving the book from her, he cleared his throat uncomfortably and began telling the tale of the

three little pigs.

His voice was deep and lush, vibrating like the bass notes of a grand piano in the stillness of his

spellbound audience.

Though the story was simple and well-known, it sounded completely different when it was read by

Samuel.

Before long, the four children began snoring gently.

Natalie was similarly affected. My God, what a soothing voice. Even I am beginning to feel sleepy.

When Samuel reached the end of the book, Natalie and the children were already sound asleep.

Realizing that he was the only one left awake, Samuel chuckled helplessly.

After depositing the book as soundlessly as he could, he carried the children one at a time and placed

them in their beds.

Lastly, it was Natalie’s turn.

Instead of carrying her back into her own bedroom, Samuel brought her back into his.

Feeling more at ease than he had ever been in his life from her gentle but even snoring, Samuel turned

off the lights as he snuggled next to her.

In the darkness, he held her tightly as if intent on merging her body and soul onto his.

The following day when Natalie awoke, she realized with a start that she was on Samuel’s bed though he

was nowhere to be found.

D*mn it, again? It seems like I’m sharing a bed with him more often than not these days.

After clutching her cheeks to subdue the blush, she got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast.

After that, Natalie made her way to the office of the CEO of Dream Corporation.
