Chapter 73 This Woman Dared Hit Me

Natalie looked at Samuel with her tear-stained eyes.

She didn’t even have the opportunity to wipe her tears away before they started rolling down from her cheeks, and one thing Natalie disliked was for others to see the weak side of her, especially if that person was Samuel.

“It’s none of your business,” she said, giving him a cold glance in the process before she flung his hand away.

Natalie basically ran out from the kindergarten.

In all these years, she had tried her best to forget and let go of all the pain that antagonized her, but she couldn’t help but relive those painful memories when she saw Sophia, who was the same age as her twins.

“Are you all right?” A woman in white, Molly Larkins, walked to Natalie’s side and gave her tissues, causing Natalie to turn her head.

“You are?”

“I’m Sophia and Franklin’s art teacher, Molly. I meant no harm. You just looked so sad, so I thought of giving you tissues.”

“Thank you.”

Natalie then took the tissues from her and wiped her tears with them.

“You’re Sophia and Franklin’s…”

“Friend,” Natalie replied slowly, looking into Molly’s eyes when she answered.

For one, she was not related to Sophia and Franklin by blood. Hence she considered herself as more of a friend than an elder to them.

Molly then brushed her bangs and continued, “And, you and Mr. Bowers…?”

Natalie immediately caught the hint when Molly asked, seeing through her antics.

“You’ve got the hots for Samuel?”

Molly, on the other hand, never thought that Natalie could be so straightforward. Her face immediately flushed red as she stuttered, “Y-you-”

“I see, so you fancy him.”

“What’s with that, anyway? Do I need your permission to like him?” Molly got irritated.

Natalie could only sigh when she looked at Molly now.

Does she think love can bring anyone together? Does she really think any woman can handle someone like Samuel?

“What are you sighing for?”

“I’m just sighing at your futile adoration. There’s no way anything will happen between you two,” Natalie replied without a hint of hesitation. She then continued, “Ms. Larkins, it’s best if you don’t waste your time.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“Huh? So what if I don’t stand a chance? You think you can?”

Molly then stopped her pretentious act and started to spout vile words, furrowing her brows.

“Have you taken a good look in the mirror before saying that? With a face like yours? Freckles everywhere, I’m disgusted just by looking at you,” Molly said while pointing at Natalie’s face.

Natalie never thought that Molly would change her personality all of a sudden, and her eyes slowly turned cold.

“Molly. How can you spout something like that as a teacher?”

“What? Did I say anything wrong?” She looked at Natalie with arrogance and continued, “Not happy that I’m actually prettier than you? Not happy that I like Samuel? I don’t know what dirty tricks you used to reel him in, but for someone as ugly as you to even have the guts to do that really disgusts me!”

Did she just call me ugly? What does that have to do with her? Let’s see who’s the fairest of them all if I take off my hyper-realistic mask!

Just thinking of that, Natalie was close to losing her cool.

“You had better stay away from Samuel.” Molly walked over and was planning on pushing her.

However, Natalie one-upped her first by grabbing Molly’s arm and twisting it.

“I know I said that you guys are unsuited for each other, but I take that back. You’re not even worth his time.”

“Ouch!” Tears were seen in Molly’s eyes as she yelped in pain.

Just then, Molly spotted Samuel’s silhouette.

As if she found her saving grace, tears started forming as they rolled down her cheeks. “Mr. Bowers, please save me! This woman is planning to hit me!”
