Chapter 412
That was not the first time Zayden met Samuel, but he never liked the man.
When compared to someone as good-looking and respectable as Samuel, it was only natural for
Zayden to get jealous.
The fact that Charles buttered up Samuel at his expense only served to fuel his jealousy.
“It’s not what you think, Grandpa. Why the heck would I get myself soaked like this? Surely you don’t
think I deliberately made a mess of myself!” Frowning, Zayden tried to defend himself.
“Then why don’t you tell me what exactly happened to you?” questioned Charles sternly.
Zayden could feel his veins popping when he remembered how he ended up drenched. “A hideous
woman pushed me into the swimming pool. It’s true when people say that beauty comes from within.
Someone as foul as her deserves to have a face full of freckles! That woman just ran off after kicking
me into the pool.”

into the pool.Samuel knew that the one responsible for Zayden’s situation was none other than Natalie,
so instinctively, a smirk appeared on his face.
“Enough with your nonsense! Now go and get changed!” ordered Charles impatiently.
Knowing that it would be best for him to just do what his grandfather said, Zayden nodded in response
before hurrying to get changed.
Charles then turned back to Samuel and sighed, “I apologize that you have to see that, Samuel. I mean
what I said just now. You’re a fine young man, and my grandson really could learn a thing or two from
you. Zayden thinks that he can do whatever he wants just because he’s a Hamilton.”
“Then you should keep an eye on him. If he were to go after a woman dear to someone, I’m afraid that
not even being a Hamilton would save him,” reminded Samuel as he narrowed his eyes at the helpless-
looking elderly man.
What Samuel implied was that he would not forgive Zayden if the man were to harm Natalie in any way.
Not even if he was Charles’ only grandson.
However, it completely went over Charles’ head. The elderly man simply nodded before moving on to
another subject.
After Zayden dried himself and changed into a fresh set of clothes, he went to see Charles.
“Now that’s more like it,” remarked the elderly man in a satisfied manner before continuing, “Go get
your sister, Zayden. It’s been a while since she and Samuel met. Now that she’s back, I think they
should catch up.”
“Yes, Grandpa.”

Even though Charles was well aware that Yara and the five-year-old twins were still around, he still
hoped to marry his granddaughter to Samuel for his personal gain.
The old man also knew that it would be much easier for Zayden to take over the family business if the
two families became in-laws and combined their businesses.

and Scarlett. ***
“Samuel, you should know that Scarlett has been studying business management abroad for the past
two years, and she has achieved excellent results. Even her lecturers were very impressed by her
performance there.”
Charles would glow differently whenever he talked about Scarlett, for he was just that proud of his
granddaughter. “Your grandfather and I are both old now. We can’t move as much as we like, unlike
you youngsters. You should spend some time making more friends. Trust me. It will do you good.”
When Samuel heard Charles, he knew exactly what the elderly man was trying to do. “I only have
eyes for one person, Old Mr. Hamilton. Although she doesn’t get jealous easily, I think it’s best that I
keep my distance from other women. I prefer to avoid any misunderstanding. I’m sure you’ll
understand.”
Samuel could not help but smile when he talked about Natalie, for he had nothing but fondness for that
woman.
