Chapter 921 Perpetual Longing

“Mmm…”

Feeling intoxicated, Natalie drifted in and out of consciousness.

Samuel, with his arms wrapped around Natalie, felt as if he was holding his entire world within his

arms.

However, thinking about the message sent to him by his son ignited a whiff of jealousy within him.

Even though he was the one who hurt and left her, his possessiveness over her didn’t diminish one bit,

especially when it came to the way Natalie and Jerome interacted. The tacit understanding they shared

with each other seemed to be seared into their soul.

Holding that thought, Samuel felt as if something had pierced his heart, eliciting a painful yet bitter

sensation.

“Jerome… Who is he to you…” Samuel’s voice was so deep that one could hear the hoarseness

coming from the bottom of his throat.

“What?”

Upon hearing Jerome’s voice being mentioned, Natalie peeked out underneath her eyelids.

“Why are you… asking about Jerome?”

The familiar manner in which she brought up his name brought a sullen look upon Samuel’s face.

“Who is he? How much does that man mean to you?” Samuel’s voice was low as he continued. By the

time he finished, his teeth were tightly clenched.

Natalie snorted in laughter. “Jerome’s like a brother to me. The kind where we’re joined at the hip.

Since I don’t have a younger brother, I treat him as such. Whoever dares to bully him would feel my

wrath! However, he’s now all grown up and has even become a major general. Hence, h-he no

longer… needs my protection… anymore.”

Despite being drunk, Natalie still had the presence of mind to answer logically, albeit in broken

sentences.

Upon learning that Natalie saw Jerome as her brother, Samuel couldn’t help but curl his lips. Even if

Jerome had feelings for her, she, at the very least, saw the relationship as platonic.

When something dawned upon him all of a sudden, Samuel gave her pinkish cheeks a pinch.

“Ouch!” Natalie purred just like a kitten.

“Remember, no matter how close you are to him, there’s always a line to be drawn,” Samuel

demanded.

No sooner had he finished than he realized how unreasonable his request was. Cognizant that he had

no right to place restrictions on her, he added, “A-At the very least, don’t cross the line while I’m still

alive.”

Squirming in discomfort, Natalie pursed her lips without reply.

“Did you hear me?”

“Shut up… I’m really sleepy…”

Just when Samuel wanted to give up, he heard a sudden mumble from her. “Mm-hmm, I hear you.”

Caressing her face with his hand, Samuel peered into her eyes. Beyond the affection and desire in his

gaze was his love for her.

“D-Don’t go…”

Suddenly, Natalie awoke from her dreams and noticed that she was lying in her bed.

Although there wasn’t a hangover, she instinctively rubbed the back of her head due to the grogginess

she felt.

“Ms. Nichols, are you okay?” Emma asked in concern as she came over.

“I’m fine. I just need a while.” Natalie shook her head.

“All right, I’ve prepared oatmeal porridge for breakfast. You’ll feel better once you have some.”

“Mm-hmm.”

After regaining her senses, Natalie realized the last thing she remembered was drinking at the road

stall. Subsequently, she couldn’t recall how she got home and figured that it was probably because she

was drunk.

She couldn’t help but ask, “By the way, Emma, how did I come back?”

“The vendor of the stall you were eating at got a taxi to send you.” Emma added with a smile,

“Furthermore, he was sensitive enough to get you a female driver due to how late it was. The driver

was very professional and even helped me support you all the way up here.”

“I see…”

Tightening her grip on the sheets, Natalie felt that something was amiss.

Female driver? Why do I vaguely remember being hugged and kissed by a man? Furthermore, it felt as

if the man was Samuel himself! What the f*ck is going on? Can it be that he’s all that I can think of

now?
