Chapter 480 Is He Mad
Natalie was upset and a little indignant.
She knew Samuel cared for her, but she found it hard to accept his authoritarian behavior.
There’s no need to strip me naked to examine me for any injury.
Samuel did not notice any wound on her body. After a while, he helped her with her robe and tie it
properly.
“I was worried you were lying to me again. I know of your stubbornness all too well.” Samuel did not
apologize to Natalie. However, his tone turned gentle.
“I understand…”
Natalie lowered her eyes.
She had been living independently for a long time. Even though she knew she had someone she could
rely upon now, she was not used to depending on anyone.
I am injured. It was just a three-word phrase, yet it was challenging enough to get those words out of her

“Are you mad at me?” Samuel asked.
“No.” Natalie lifted her head and looked into Samuel’s eyes. “I know you care for me. It’s my problem. I
don’t know how to show you my vulnerable side.”
The same goes for the wound on my hand, the mask on my face, and even the hatred in my heart.
She knew Samuel was keen to know everything about her. However, she did not want to mention those
things whenever she faced him.
A series of tragedies that happened five years ago had been a massive blow to her. With that, it had
caused her to form a somewhat rebellious personality.
“Am I being unreasonable?” There was somehow a trace of panic in Natalie’s eyes. “If you treat me the
same, I think I will be mad as well.”
Samuel let out a sigh as he caressed her head.
“Silly girl!” Samuel murmured. “If you couldn’t do it now, I will wait until the day you can finally do it. We
have a lifetime ahead of us. I will always be with you. I believe you will be able to open up to me
completely one day.”
“Okay.”
A warm and fuzzy feeling rose in Natalie’s heart.
She wrapped her arms around Samuel’s waist, and she took the initiative to kiss his lips.
Right after the kiss, Samuel suddenly pressed her down against the bed.
Meanwhile, at the Bowers residence.
Kenneth stood by the pond and sprinkled the fish food in his hand.
As the fish food scattered on the pond’s surface, the fish rushed to the surface and compete for the food.
Kenneth stared at the chaotic pond. Yet, he was devoid of expression.
Yara was busy with the new drug development at Dexmed Pharmaceutical. Thus, she seldom came to
visit him.
However, he did not need Yara’s company as his health was generally well. Even though he greatly

like Franklin and Sophia, to be by his side.
However, ever since Natalie showed up, he had less and less chance to see Franklin and Sophia.
As the winter breeze started to blow, Kenneth felt a sense of loneliness in his heart.
In the end, he could not bear it any longer and made a video call to Franklin and Sophia.
No one answered it even after he called twice.
To his relief, someone finally picked up the call the third time he called.
Franklin was the one who answered it. Kenneth smiled delightfully as he saw the former’s tiny face
appearing on the screen.
“Franklin, where’s Sophia?”
“Great-grandpa, hold on a second.”
Franklin grabbed the phone and left the scene abruptly. After getting into the bathroom, he closed the
door and let out a sigh of relief. “Sophia is reciting medical scriptures. She will be tested later. Great-
grandpa, just tell me if you have any message for her…”
“Medical scriptures? Why is Sophia learning that? And who is teaching her?” Kenneth furrowed his
brows in displeasure.
