The Promise of Happiness novel Atalie and Samuel

Chapter 926

Despite the fury burning in her eyes, Olivia had no choice but to limp aside with her crutches.

“Thank you.”

Ever since Olivia saw Natalie, her gaze never returned to Anna. It wasn't until Natalie had entered the apartment

that the door was shut in Olivia's face.

Subsequently, Olivia, filled with shock and jealousy, lingered at the door for a long while.

Does that despicable woman know that Anna is Muse? Furthermore, why is that minx so close to Muse?

Biting her lip, Olivia wasn't planning on giving up persuading Muse anytime soon.

After all, she was sure that a single mother who had an upcoming divorce case in court would certainly have

pressing financial needs, at least for hiring a good lawyer. Therefore, Olivia felt that once Anna had gotten past her

ego and understood the value of money, her stance would naturally waver.

“Muse, I'll be waiting.” Thrusting her chin in the air, she declared arrogantly, “Sooner or later, you'll be groveling at

my feet!”

Inside the apartment, Anna carried Kyle, who had just finished her milk, over to Natalie.

“Kyle, Natalie is here to see you again...” Anna spoke to the baby.

Less than a year old, the baby had a chubby face and small pinkish features. There was even a milky scent to her.

As if she could understand what her mother was saying, Kyle flailed her limbs happily. The sight of her was so

adorable that it would easily melt anyone's heart.

Despite the fury burning in her eyes, Olivia had no choice but to limp aside with her crutches.

“Kyle seems to adore you.”

“Really?” Natalie pointed at herself. “Are you sure she doesn't just like anyone she sees?”

“She's really naughty!” Anna couldn't help but complain. “She really does like you. Perhaps she instinctively knows

about all that you have done for us.”

“Stop flattering me by putting words in her mouth.” Natalie laughed as she teased Kyle.

Not knowing how to respond, Anna simply shook her head with a smile.

After playing with Kyle for a short while, Anna handed her over to the nanny she had hired before heading into the

study with Natalie.

“Olivia came to see me about collaborating with Farrington Jewelry.” Anna explained candidly, “However, I rejected

her outright and didn't reveal my partnership with Dream to her.”

“I think that she will continue bugging you, for she's desperate to prove herself by showing some results.” Natalie

continued calmly, “If she tries to pressure you by making your life difficult, you can tell Yandel or me anytime, and

we'll deal with it. As Kyle is still young, you should spend more time with her outside of work.”

Holding Natalie's hand tightly, Anna had so much to say but didn't know where to begin.

Natalie had helped her so much that she knew she would never be able to repay her debt of gratitude.

“Natalie, thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

“Don't be o stronger.” Notolie crocked o foint smile. “Thot's whot we should be doing in life. Anno, let's work

together to do something meoningful.”

Her eyes sporkled with optimism.

Subsequently, Anno would never forget the glint in Notolie's eyes. Even when the lotter hod reoched the pinnocle of

the business world, she mointoined the some unmistokoble look, but thot wos o story for onother doy.

After Notolie hod finished her discussion with Anno ond left, she received o coll from Yondel.

“Whot's up?”

“Boss, Amos hos sent you on invitotion for Corlos' birthdoy bonquet the following evening.” Yondel gove Notolie the

detoils of the event. “Usuolly, such invitotions ore sent out ot leost holf o month in odvonce. Hence, isn't it too

sudden to send one to you now?”

“So be it. Yondel, pleose RSVP to the Stone Corporotion thot I'll be ottending.” Notolie cosuolly odded, “The Stone

fomily controls mony gem mines. Furthermore, there's nothing for me to lose since it isn't o porticulorly precorious

event.”

“For your plus one, I'll put down Mr. Bow—”

Holfwoy through his sentence, Yondel couldn't resist slopping his own mouth.

Other thon the foct thot Somuel wosn't oround, he couldn't ottend the event with Notolie even if he wos. Yondel hod

just blurted out the words out of hobit.

“Don't be a stranger.” Natalie cracked a faint smile. “That's what we should be doing in life. Anna, let's work

together to do something meaningful.”

Her eyes sparkled with optimism.

Subsequently, Anna would never forget the glint in Natalie's eyes. Even when the latter had reached the pinnacle of

the business world, she maintained the same unmistakable look, but that was a story for another day.

After Natalie had finished her discussion with Anna and left, she received a call from Yandel.

“What's up?”

“Boss, Amos has sent you an invitation for Carlos' birthday banquet the following evening.” Yandel gave Natalie the

details of the event. “Usually, such invitations are sent out at least half a month in advance. Hence, isn't it too

sudden to send one to you now?”

“So be it. Yandel, please RSVP to the Stone Corporation that I'll be attending.” Natalie casually added, “The Stone

family controls many gem mines. Furthermore, there's nothing for me to lose since it isn't a particularly precarious

event.”

“For your plus one, I'll put down Mr. Bow—”

Halfway through his sentence, Yandel couldn't resist slapping his own mouth.

Other than the fact that Samuel wasn't around, he couldn't attend the event with Natalie even if he was. Yandel had

just blurted out the words out of habit.
