Chapter 373

The man on the left corner of the drawing was most likely Samuel. Next to him were the four little ones-

Franklin, Sophia, Xavian, and Clayton, and lastly, on the right, Natalie.

Even though the pencil strokes of those five-year-old children were still blunt and messy, they had put

in thoughts and emotions to draw the picture out. It was no wonder why Natalie and Samuel felt warm

inside when they saw the drawing.

The term “home” used to be something that was so out of reach for Samuel and Natalie.

Little did they expect what seemed impossible to achieve had now appeared not only on the drawing

but even more so before their eyes.

“Happy birthday, Daddy.” Franklin scratched the back of his head and grinned broadly.

“Daddy, happy birthday!” Sophie blinked her sparkling eyes as she sent her well-wishes too.

Before this, Xavian and Clayton had always greeted Samuel as “Mr. Bowers.” But ever since the other

time when Samuel had suavely appeared at the office of the Head of Kindergarten and called himself

the father of the two boys, they had secretly acknowledged him as their “Daddy” deep in their hearts

from then on.

After moments of hesitation, Xavian and Clayton also blurted out one after another, “Daddy, happy

birthday.”

Slightly stunned by the scene before him, Samuel broke into a smile. “Franklin, Sophia, Xavian, and

Clayton, thank you for the birthday present. I love it so much.”

The four little ones exchanged glances and grinned at each other in satisfaction.

Watching the heartwarming scene before her eyes while resting her right cheek on her hand, Natalie

felt warmth in her heart.

She had been urging herself to become stronger in recent years because only that way could she

protect the people and things she loved. But deep in her heart, she knew very well all she yearned for

was nothing but warmth and simplicity.

Staying beside Samuel, she seemed to have understood the true meaning of security.

After digesting the food they had consumed, Samuel and Natalie went on a hot spring date with their

four children.

To be able to get soaked in a hot spring surrounded by warm mist in the freezing winter weather was

indeed a pure enjoyment for Natalie from head to toe,

At the same time, Jolene quickly made a call to Yara in another room.

“Ms. Yara, it’s me. Jolene.”

After accompanying Kenneth to the hospital, Yara was on her way to the underground parking lot to

retrieve her car. “Ms. Jolene, is anything the matter?”

“Ms. Yara, I have something to say, but I’m not sure if I should bring it up.”

Yara stopped in her tracks upon hearing that and frowned slightly. “I don’t see a need for you to sound

me out since you’ve made this call. Go ahead and tell me whatever you wanted to say.”

“Mr. Samuel previously made an appointment to visit the resort today. I thought he’ll be coming with

you, but it turns out that…”

“You mean Samuel is at your resort?!” Yara gasped in shock.

“Not only him; he also brought along your children…” Jolene paused slightly before continuing,

“Besides, there’s also a woman and her two kids.”

A woman and two kids?

It did not come across Yara’s mind that it would be Natalie since she did not know the latter had two

children.

Could it be that Samuel has found someone else again?

“Ms. Jolene, could you please roughly describe the woman’s appearance?”

“That woman is average-looking. She has some freckles on her face. To be honest, her looks are

nowhere comparable to yours.”

As soon as Yara heard those descriptions, the identity of the unknown woman became clear to her.

“It’s that woman again?” she unknowingly blurted out of her mouth.

It’s Samuel’s 30th birthday today. He’d rather bring Franklin and Sophia to celebrate his birthday with

another woman and not even invite me to join. How can he be so heartless?

Yara felt an immense surge of jealousy and heartache, as though innumerable venomous bugs were

gnawing on her heart.

It’s been five years! Are those precious years that I’ve sacrificed for Samuel no match for a woman who

has been by his side for only a few months? So much so that I’m unworthy of spending his birthday

with him?

“Ms. Jolene, I don’t wish to see Franklin and Sophia call another woman as their mother. I need you to

help me with this…”
