Chapter 357
Thinking about Samuel’s idea, Natalie realized that it was indeed brilliant.
Unfortunately, it didn’t cross her mind when they were in the ward.
She had planned to let Lionel vent his anger before seeking his understanding and trust to treat Lia
with acupuncture. Subsequently, Lia lost massive amounts of blood from puking and needed a blood
transfusion from her brother.
Lost in thought, Natalie didn’t answer Samuel’s question, causing his frown to intensify.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“Since the matter has been resolved perfectly, there’s no need to be pedantic about the process.”
When Natalie felt his fingertips on her neck, she tucked her head by reflex. “No matter what, the fact
that Lia was cured is a silver lining indeed. After all, I do not wish for her to die because of
me.”
“Nat, have you ever thought about yourself?” Samuel continued questioning.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I have.” Natalie nodded. “The Johnson siblings have a good reputation. Hence, I’m confident doing
this.”
“If you have thought about yourself, have you then thought about me?”
“You.”
Stumped, Natalie didn’t know what to say.
“It seems you have not considered my feelings at all.” Samuel suddenly moved within breathing
distance of Natalie’s ear while his body leaned against her. “Nat, I’m not as easy-going as I look. To
me, I don’t care if Lia or Lionel dies. You are all that matters to me.”
Caught by surprise, Natalie looked up and locked eyes with Samuel.
His hostility makes him feel so distant.
All his gestures, from his gaze to his breath, seemed to be exuding an air of possessiveness.

“Didn’t everything turn out to be all right?” Natalie cupped his face with both her hands and softly
added, “Besides, you’re there with me. If I was in real danger, you would definitely protect me!”
She had taken the initiative to lower herself.
Nonetheless, the displeasure on Samuel’s face couldn’t be more obvious.
Erm, when he gets angry, he becomes more difficult to pacify than the children. However, I was
pushing the thresholds of danger just now. Come to think of it, it really was a torture for him to watch
back then. Fine! Looks like I have no choice but to placate him.
Lifting her face, she gently gave his lips a kiss.
His lips are especially cold and stiff today.
Nevertheless, Natalie was unfazed. Forcing her way through his teeth, she began exploring around
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcheekily so as to assuage his anger.
Not wanting to waver on his principles, Samuel resisted Natalie’s attempt to muddle the situation by not
reciprocating.
More than ten seconds later, Natalie began to feel disheartened.
Da*n it. Has my initiative failed to charm him now?
Natalie didn’t dare to delve further into the issue. Given that she had started turning on the charm,
there was no going back other than intensifying her efforts.
Samuel had planned to resist all the way. However, given how she was seducing him, he had reached
the limits of his endurance. Consequently, it was no longer a matter of principle.
He’s not reacting to me at all. Isn’t this going to be embarrassing?
Just when she was about to give up, Samuel moaned all of a sudden and kissed her back intensely.
While she was stunned by the sudden change, Samuel had put his hand behind her head and seized
the initiative.
“My dear Nat, since you dare play with fire, you will be responsible for putting it out.” Filled with lust,
Samuel’s voice had become raspy. “Holding you accountable will have to wait.”
