Chapter 709 My Woman

Moments later, Samuel was focused on the road, whereas Natalie was seated quietly next to him in the

car.

Somehow, Samuel pulled the car to a halt by the riverbank instead of heading toward the Bowers

residence.

The glittering neon lights along the riverbank cascaded on the surface of the river, forming kaleidoscopic

reflections. Meanwhile, the night breeze blew across the riverbank, ruffling Samuel and Natalie’s hair.

Leaning on the railing, Natalie mumbled in low spirits, “Thanks for speaking up for me in the face of all

those elders just now. If not for you, they might have sent me to the police station. It’s no big deal if I

were held captive temporarily there earlier. However, there are a lot of urgent matters in Dream

Corporation at the moment that I need to settle. If I end up being held there now, the corporation’s

operation would surely be affected as many things will have to be on hold.”

Samuel raised his eyes gradually, fastening his gaze on her face. “I’m convinced that you’ve nothing to

do with Grandpa’s death. Regardless of how respectful I’m of those elders, I won’t let them wrong you!

Didn’t I say that you’re my woman? No matter what, I’ll protect you against any harm!”

Natalie was stunned. Seconds later, her lips curved into a smile.

Clutching onto Samuel’s collar, Natalie emphasized, “Thanks for trusting me. Even though Old Mr.

Bowers was strict toward me and opposed our will to be together, I don’t feel hatred toward him. After all,

he’s your respectable grandpa who had nurtured you these years and the kids’ great-grandpa. Hence,

remember that I’ll never inflict any harm to him!”

As they were only inches away from each other, Samuel’s ears caught every word clearly against the

whizzing of the night breeze.

His thin lips parted as he replied softly, “I know.”

“Hmm!” Natalie hummed and loosened her grip on his collar. Running her fingers through her ruffled hair,

she uttered casually, “Now that such a terrible thing has happened, I don’t think we should continue to be

together. Apart from racking your brain to clear my name, you might be placed in a worse predicament.

Hence, I suggest we separate from each other temporarily and try to cool our heads off.”

“No way!” Samuel protested adamantly.

Natalie turned to gaze at him. “Why not? Since you’re still digging up the culprit who poisoned your

grandpa and my name is not cleared yet, it’s better for us to part temporarily. When I’m away, take great

care of the kids.”

“Then how about you?” Samuel asked worriedly.

Locking her eyes with Samuel’s, Natalie assured, “Don’t worry about me as I’ll take good care of myself.

I’ve gone through a lot before we got to know each other; yet, I’m sound and safe till now. After all,

there’s still a lot for you to cater to for your grandpa’s sake. Moreover, as the patriarch of the Bowers

family, you’ve to take charge of the whole family. Don’t you know that I’m like a whirlpool of trouble now?

If I continue to stay by your side, you’ll be drawn toward the disastrous tornado!”

“I’m not afraid of the so-called tornado!” Samuel clenched his fists. There was a hint of frigidness in his

eyes.

“But I am.” Natalie stood on her toes, inching closer to him. “Try to hold on. It won’t be long before we’re

reunited again.”

Seconds later, she lifted her dainty face and kissed him affectionately on the lips.

Nonetheless, it was a light kiss. Seconds later, she pulled herself back just before Samuel came to his

senses and intended to kiss her back.

“Nat…” he murmured reluctantly.

“That’s all for today. I’ll continue with that when I have the chance some other time,” Natalie reassured

him mischievously with a bright smile.

The next moment, she turned and left the riverbank.

She could feel that the man never shifted his passionate gaze away from her retreating figure.

Nevertheless, she did not turn to look at him. Deep down, she was relatively touched when Samuel

insisted on trusting her despite his grandfather’s sudden death and oppressive words from the others.

Apparently, the mastermind started to stir up trouble for the Dream Corporation’s medicine before driving

a wedge between her and the Bowers family. She had a gut instinct that there would be a series of

obstacles awaiting her.

Anyway, it’s too early to jump to a conclusion about who’ll have the last laugh! She snorted inwardly.

Her smile faded away as a flicker of coldness flashed across her eyes.

When Samuel was back at the Bowers residence, Gavin approached him at once. With tears welling up

in his eyes, he sobbed. “Mr. Samuel, I heard that Old Mr. Bowers…”

Samuel knitted his brows and stated gravely, “Gavin, keep it mum from Franklin and Sophia for the time

being. Besides, I won’t let them go to school for the time being. I’ll hire a tutor to teach them at home. Try

to keep everything under wraps so they won’t be bothered.”

Understanding Samuel’s intention, Gavin nodded solemnly. “Noted, Mr. Samuel.”
