Samuel left as soon as he finished, and Gale could feel his knees buckling from the pressure.

The latter stood rooted on the spot for a long time and thought about it before he eventually realized

that the girl he was chasing after might be Samuel‘s prey.

On the other hand, Natalie no longer wanted to stay in her current outfit with her face exposed in the

banquet hall.

She went to the washroom and dumped the maid outfit after changing into the gown she came in.

Then she put on her hyper–realistic mask and made sure everything was flawless before she headed

out.

After circling around the hall, she went back to Samuel.

Their eyes met.

He looked at Natalie with a certain profoundness in his eyes as his lips curled into a smirk. The

intensity of his gaze felt as though he could see through her thoughts.

On the other hand, Natalie was at a loss for words as she stared at Samuel‘s ambiguous smile.

Does Samuel know something? That‘s impossible, right? If he knows who I really am, why didn‘t he confront me?

Natalie quietly reminded herself that Samuel was not an ordinary guy and that she needed to stay calm

in front of him.

With that in mind, she clenched her fists a little.

“You were gone for a long time. Where did you go?” Samuel asked.

“Maybe it‘s because I drank a little too much. I felt a little tipsy.” Natalie held her head to make it look

like she was telling the truth. “Phoebe dirtied my dress, so she took me to the guest room to change.

With how warm the room was and my dizziness, I decided to go out for some fresh air when she didn‘t

come back for me. I‘m feeling a lot better after that.” Natalie deliberately made it a half–truth.

The truth part was things Samuel could definitely find out if he wanted to, while the other half were

things that she did not want him to know.

She had been hiding her secret for five years.

Even her friends like Cecilia or aides like Yandel were not aware of what actually happened to her.

Natalie had already gotten used to safeguarding her secret and taking everything on by herself. Thus,

even if she wanted to tell Samuel, she would not know how to do it.

Samuel studied Natalie‘s face earnestly.

She‘s still trying to keep the truth from me? So be it!

He knew the woman in front of him had too much on her shoulders, that her face was not the only thing

she was hiding from him.

Nevertheless, Samuel told Natalie about what happened with Phoebe and Susan.

Naturally, she knew everything, but she acted as though she was astonished to hear it.

“Then, that means ...”

“That‘s right.”

“Oh, thank goodness! If it‘s like you said, I really dodged a bullet there.”

Natalie pressed her palm on her chest as though to calm herself down. However, those beautiful eyes

of hers showed no signs of relief.

At that moment, Samuel took a sip of his wine and looked at her affectionately.

Right then, Justin appeared in front of them with an attention–grabbing palm print on his cheek.

“What happened to you?” Samuel asked.

Inwardly, Natalie was gloating so hard she wanted to laugh. If I‘m not wrong, this palm print should be Jane‘s.

Think hat he got that because of her, Natalie calmed herself down and hid the curl on her smile.

“Who could possibly do this besides Jane? Aren‘t you just asking the obvious, Samuel?”

Even though Justin had that mark on his face, he still smiled like some love–struck teenager.

“I wasn‘t sure about how Jane felt about me back then. I thought my love was a one sided affair. But

she scolded me today. She said I was a scumbag and even cried in the end.” Justin smiled. “Jane‘s

really a stubborn yet soft–hearted person. I think she‘s the one for me. I‘ll do anything to make sure she

doesn‘t shed any more tears.”
