Chapter 768 Misunderstanding
“N-No, you misunderstand!” Yandel exclaimed hastily.
“A misunderstanding?” Samuel’s voice remained ice cold.
“We are having a celebratory drink tonight at the bar. Boss had a little bit too much wine, and she fell asleep on the couch. There are also two other people here. It’s not just the both of us alone right now!” Yandel explained quickly.
Yandel had seen Samuel’s jealous side before and it was not something to be taken lightly.
Yandel hurried over to Lia and pushed the phone into her hands. “Say something to prove my innocence to him!”
However, Lia, too, was deliriously drunk. She slapped Yandel’s face and said groggily, “Y-You are so noisy!”
Yandel’s cheek hurt where she had laid her palm, but luckily for him, the sound of her voice saved him from Samuel’s jealous rage.
“You heard her voice, right? I’m not lying to you.”
“Send me your location,” Samuel ordered in a cold voice. “I’ll pick her up right away.”
“Okay, okay,” Yandel nodded furiously. “I’ll send you our location. I’ll send it right now.”
Samuel ended the call.
Only then did Yandel realize that he had been sweating profusely, and he was completely sober and wide awake.
Samuel Bowers really is smitten with boss, but his possessiveness of her is so scary! If this was back in the olden days, I’m sure he would castrate me before he would allow me to work for boss!
He looked around at the three people in their sleepy, drunken state. Yandel decided that he would stand guard and would not touch another drop of wine for the rest of the night.
Half an hour later, Samuel arrived at the bar. When he pulled open the door to their private room, he was met by a table littered with empty wine bottles and the sight of a drunken Natalie fast asleep on the couch.
Her skin was creamy white and her cheeks were a peachy pink. She looked as alluring as sleeping beauty.
Yandel parted his lips to say something to Samuel, but he walked passed him as if he was not even there. Yandel felt so embarrassed that he wanted to sink into the ground.
Samuel walked over to Natalie and said tenderly, “Nat, let’s go home.”
Natalie was sleeping soundly and she did not appreciate being disturbed. She frowned in annoyance and bit down on Samuel’s outstretched hand. Then, she turned around and went back to sleep.
Yandel was shocked by her action.
Samuel, however, merely glanced at the teeth marks on his hand. His face betrayed no emotion.
Yandel was stunned. He thought of how Samuel’s voice through the phone was enough to scare him. Yet, Natalie had just casually bitten his hand and his eyes were still full of affection for her. What a difference there was in the way he treated the both of them.
Samuel bent down and hoisted Natalie onto his back.
“Do you need me-” Yandel wanted to offer his assistance.
“No need,” Samuel cut him off. “Just watch after those two. I’ll take care of Nat.”
“Okay.” Yandel was relieved to have Samuel taking care of Natalie.
The sight of Samuel with Natalie on his back attracted the attention of the other patrons of the bar.
It was not just the couple’s good looks that caught their eyes, but also, the palpable love and adoration that Samuel had for Natalie.
Natalie was still fast asleep by the time they got out of the bar. Her cheeks were pressed against Samuel’s back. Her breathe felt warm and wet against the back of his neck. Their closeness made his muscles tense up.
He suppressed the desire that was raging in his heart. At that moment, he both loved and hated her intensely.
That woman was always getting on his nerves and yet, he could not seem to stay angry with her.
After standing in the chilly, night wind for a while, Samuel managed to bring his emotions under control. Then, instead of waking Natalie up, he gently placed her in the passenger seat of his car before driving home.
Once the two of them were safely home, Samuel helped her to undress and shower. Then, he carried her to their bed and tucked her in for the night.
He was much more familiar and closer to Natalie than he was before. He was more comfortable taking care of her and loving her.
Samuel pulled her into his arms and fell asleep cuddling her.
