The Promise Of Happiness

Chapter 13 My Daddy Is Senile

Franklin froze when he heard that. Then, he turned around to look at Samuel, who was entering the dining hall.

Samuel still had his phone in his hand, and the top two buttons of his black shirt were undone. He looked extremely intimidating as his dark eyes filled with anger.

The little boy pursed his lips before puffing up his cheeks, calling out reluctantly, “Daddy.”

Natalie shuddered internally when she met those dark and bottomless eyes of that man. This little snake boy is actually Samuel’s son? So that means he has a pair of twins? Sophia isn’t his only child?

Samuel glared at Franklin coldly before saying, “What in the world are you thinking with that underdeveloped brain of yours? You, taking her as your woman? What makes you think you can do that?”

Franklin was visibly afraid of Samuel. However, when he remembered that he had so boldly declared that he would protect Natalie earlier, he realized that he couldn’t act too cowardly in front of his father. Hence, he plucked up his courage and replied, “Daddy, I like her. I want her to stay.”

Samuel frowned even harder. “Do you even understand what you’re saying?”

“Of course, I do!” Franklin touched his earlobes, his cheeks flushing. “Daddy, you can’t be so prejudiced. I’m already all grown up, so I know that I have to be proactive in pursuing the woman I like.”

“Who taught you this?” Samuel asked coldly.

“Um…” Franklin felt slightly guilty under his father’s gaze.
