that she will be happy too if I say this to her. Then, she’ll stay by my side and keep me company.”Hearing that, Samuel made a mental note to make things clear with Steven.“Go back to your room. I have something to discuss with Ms. Nichols.” He glanced at Franklin nonchalantly as he spoke.The latter still wanted to spend some time with Natalie, but since his father was adamant about sending him away, he was getting suspicious that his father liked this woman as well. Is he brushing me off because he wants to keep her for himself? I’m his biological son!He pouted before mumbling almost inaudibly, “You want her for yourself, so you’re abusing your status as my daddy to do this. We’ll see about this…”“Franklin, what are you mumbling about?”Instead of answering back, Franklin merely shook his head meekly. “I-I’m going back to my room.”Before he left, he still reminded Natalie in all seriousness, “Daddy won’t let me stay, so I’ll have to say goodbye to you for now.” Even though that was what he said, the expression in his eyes seemed to be saying “Daddy is old and senile.

I need you to treat a person for me.”Natalie pinched the space between her brows. I’ve been keeping my identity as a skilled doctor pretty well all along. How did this man here get to know about this identity of mine? And how much does he know about it? Could it be that he already knows my true appearance under my mask?She decided to go along with him. “Mr. Bowers, you’ve looked into my background, so you should know that I’m a coroner, not a doctor. What I do is completely different.”Samuel stepped closer to her, his slanted eyes fixing on her the whole time.For some reason, Natalie felt like she was a newborn baby, naked as day, under his intense stare.
