Chapter 195 An Ugly Woman Like Me

Billy knocked on the door and entered the office. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

When he saw Samuel’s gaze was fixated on the tablet, he felt something was off.

Sir has always been expressionless when dealing with work, yet now, his eyes are gleaming with affection when he looks at the screen.

Bill broke the silence as he said, “Sir, Mr. White has arrived at the conference room.”

“Okay.” Samuel nodded and walked up to Billy with the tablet. “Billy, get someone to convert this image to high resolution.”

“What?” Billy took the tablet and looked at the picture on the screen.

It was a picture of a woman in a veil and a nice costume playing piano in the moonlight.

This is not work-related. He’s asking me to enhance it to get a clearer picture of a beautiful pianist?

“Is there a problem?” asked Samuel icily with a frown.

Billy hurriedly shook his head and replied, “N-No.”

“Great! I’m expecting to receive the picture on my phone by the time I finish the meeting then.” The gentleness in Samuel’s eyes vanished instantly as his frosty look that Billy was familiar with reappeared. “If I don’t receive it by that time, you’ll get a salary deduction for this month.”

Hearing that, Billy became agitated. “Sir, I’ll get it done right away.”

After Billy left, Samuel placed a hand in his trench coat pocket and started to think about Natalie and himself.

They had been apart for three days, and he missed her so much more than he had ever imagined.

On the other hand, Natalie seemed to be rather indifferent about it.

In the past three days, she had not given him a call. Nor did she send him a text.

That made him feel as if she could still live perfectly even without him.

Honestly, he hated her insensitivity.

However, he was the one who had fallen for her first. Moreover, he loved her much more than she loved him.

Since that was the woman he was fond of, he was willing to do everything for her even if he would get hurt.

Seeing that the three little children were asleep, Natalie massaged the tired muscles on her shoulders and neck before going back to her bedroom.

Soon, she was fast asleep.

Early morning on the next day, Natalie was woken up by a phone call.

She was still quite groggy when she fished out her phone from under the pillow. Without checking the caller ID, she answered the phone.

“Hello…” She yawned. “Is there something important? I’ll beat you up if you called me for nothing!”

“Come and beat me up then.” A deep, magnetic male voice rang from the other side of the line.

Her mind became clear the moment she heard Samuel’s voice.

“Y-You…”

“You won’t give me a call until I call you?” questioned Samuel angrily. “Even Franklin and Sophia, who are only five-year-olds, send me text messages, but I’ve received nothing from you.”

Natalie could feel that the man was fuming and upset.

Uhm… Why should I call or text him? I’m used to coaxing Franklin and Sophia. Now, I have to coax their daddy as well?

Dumbfounded, Natalie probed, “What about… I send you a text message right now?”

He snorted. “You’ll have to call me every day in the future so that I can hear your voice.”

“Do I really have to do that?”

“I entrusted you with Franklin and Sophia. I would like to know how they are doing, of course.” Samuel then lowered his voice and added, “Apart from that, I want to know your situation too…”

“Me?”

“Yes,” he uttered. “You.”

Her heart skipped a beat upon hearing that.

“Don’t flirt with other men while I’m not around.” He gazed affectionately at the enhanced photo he received. “You’re mine… I’ll not allow anyone else to pursue you.”

A murderous vibe filled the air as he warned her.

Despite that, Natalie was unbothered. Rolling her eyes, she replied, “Stop joking around. No man would like an ugly woman like me.”
