The Promise Of Happiness

Chapter 24 Hunger Strike

Natalie was surprised and worried at the same time. “Gavin, how long has it been since they went on the hunger strike?”

“They started yesterday afternoon and didn’t have dinner. It’s almost been a whole day now. They haven’t had a bite to eat. They didn’t even drink much water…” Gavin’s voice was filled with worry.

How could they go a whole day without eating?

Natalie furrowed her brows and asked, “How about Samuel? How did he react to his children refusing to eat?”

“Mr. Samuel is aware, but he…”

“What is it?”

Gavin said helplessly, “He said they have a standing appointment to see you once a month, so they have to follow that agreement. Since he doesn’t want to spoil the children, he’s letting them go on hunger strike. He thinks that they will eat when they get too hungry. If they faint from hunger, he will get a doctor to give them some nutritional shots.”

Natalie was dumbfounded. All she could think of was how cold-blooded Samuel was.

Franklin and Sophia are still so young. How could they go a whole day without eating? He even plans to give them shots only after they’ve fainted? I have no words. How can a father like him exist in this world?
