Chapter 47
Chapter 47 I Have Children
The distance between them was too close. Moreover, Samuel’s exquisite facial features were very alluring.
Natalie had to tell herself repeatedly to keep it together. Yet, she could feel her face burning up as the blood rushed to her cheeks.
I don’t like him. I definitely do not like him.
No matter what the twins’ mother was like, Samuel had children with her. That meant they had a special relationship.
Furthermore, Samuel was close to Yara. It was possible that they had an unspeakable relationship.
Aside from that, no man would find Natalie’s freckled face charming.
She placed her hand against Samuel’s chest. “Your jokes are getting out of hand. You could easily get any woman you want. Don’t tell me you like women like me? My freckles are hereditary. They will get worse as I age. Are you sure you won’t get disgusted by them?”
She was not trying to mock herself. Instead, she was trying to annoy Samuel.
“I won’t,” he deadpanned.
Natalie’s eyes widened as she raged, “Are you blind?”
“What do you think?” Samuel retorted, his gaze locked on her face. “Beauties get hit on by too many people. It’s better to be slightly ugly. That way, no one would hit on you.”
“You-” Natalie could not even finish her sentence. She was utterly defeated by his logic.
Did he damage his head or something? Or is it because he has seen too many beauties that he finds my hyper-realistic mask fresh and unique?
“But do you know…” Natalie paused halfway through her sentence.
“What?”
“Do you know that I’m a mother?” Natalie asked. She moistened her lips and glared at him provokingly. “It seems like you don’t know. Well, I have not only one, but two sons.”
A glint of anger flashed through Samuel’s eyes when he heard her words.
“You don’t even know me well, and you know nothing about my past,” she stated, taking the chance to push him away. “So don’t try to use the children’s liking toward me to make me their new mommy and give them a complete family. Blood is irreplaceable. I’m not their mom. Moreover, I have my own children that need my care.”
Samuel was irritated. Natalie, on the other hand, was nonchalant.
Sure, he could bear with ugliness.
However, she did not believe that he could bear with the fact that she was the mother of two children.
“When did this happen?” he questioned.
“Does that matter?” Natalie questioned back. “What matters is that I did not lie. I have, in fact, given birth to children.”
“Natalie.”
She poked him on the chest. “Samuel, I advise that you get rid of the thought of building a family with me. If you want to let Franklin and Sophia grow up in a complete family, you should go and reconcile with their mother. I have to borrow your guest room again tonight. Good night.”
With that, she turned away without even looking at him.
Samuel could still smell the faint scent of herbs even after she left.
Maybe she had a reason to behave like this. Even if she changed her looks, I would never misidentify her. Scents do not change. Especially her sweet scent that made me fall so hard.
Samuel’s eyes burned. He clenched his fists so hard that his veins were visible on his forearms.
He did not expect Natalie to have two children.
Well… So what? Even if there were forty of them, I can afford to take care of them.
Natalie took a hot bath the moment she got back to the guest room.
Wearing the hyper-realistic mask was stifling and suffocating. After throwing it in the basin, she then entered the bathtub.
She never imagined that Samuel would be willing to use his good looks to charm an ugly woman just for the sake of his children.
She once thought that Samuel’s love for Franklin and Sophia was too rigid. Now that she thought about it again, she felt that she had misunderstood him.
However, the incident earlier made her even more curious.
Who is Franklin and Sophia’s mother?
