Chapter 223
âYes, itâs horrible of me to see you in such a state, but I donât think itâs fun at all. My heart is aching for
you. You can tell me if youâre sad and angry, or you can hit me, bite me, or even vent your anger out at
me if you donât want to talk. Just donât hide yourself up in a corner and cry..â Samuel muttered.
Natalieâs heart skipped a beat.
But this has nothing to do with him. Is he not aware of it?Why is he still trying to comfort me
âSamuel, can you differentiate right from wrong?â Natalie scowled.
âDifferentiating right from wrong?â He squeezed her tight and took a deep whiff of her herbal scent. âYou
may be wrong in the eyes of the world, but you will always be right in mine. I donât care what others think
of me, I only care about how you think of me.â
Natalie went beet red upon his words.
She couldnât handle his sweet confession.
âSamuel, how many romance novels did you read to come up with that?â
âNat, Iâm speaking from the bottom of my heart.â Samuel hugged her tight and stroked her hair. He said
in a firm tone, âI know you have your goals. You yearn to become stronger, and I wonât stop you from
doing so. In fact, I will be supporting you from behind. You can come to me whenever youâre hurt or tired.
I will be a shoulder for you to lean on. I will have your back no matter what happens.â
Natalieâs eyes glistened with tears at that.
She had never felt so pampered in her life. The warmth she felt caused her defenses to crumble.
âSamuel, I want to have my revenge..â Natalie cried her heart out in Samuelâs arms as if she was a
wounded beast. âThey took away things that mattered to me most in my life. I have to get my revenge!â
For me, my mother, and my granddad.
It had been five years since she bottled up her anger and resentment.
This was the first time Samuel ever heard Natalie talk about her past hurts.
