Samuel suppressed the fiery anger that roared in his chest. Shoving those feelings aside, he returned tothe Bowers residence.

Meanwhile, Steven finally had some free time to play games on the couch now that he had tucked thetwo kids into bed.

His peace did not last long. A moment passed before he caught sight of a furious Samuel who walkedover. The latter‘s gaze was much frostier than usual.

A series of shivers tingled down Steven‘s spine at once.

Even so, he decided to bite the bullet and ask, “S–Sam... Didn‘t you say you‘ll be in the hospital for a fewdays? Why have you suddenly returned?”

“I got attacked by a wolf.”

“What? A wolf?” Steven was puzzled but did not forget to back his brother up. He declared, “Tell me,Sam. Which wolf had the audacity to attack you? I‘ll end its life right now!”

Instantly, Samuel‘s brows drew close into a sharp glare as he snapped, “Don‘t you dare!”

Only then did Steven realize what was going on.

Wait. Samuel is defending the wolf that attacked him? It can‘t possibly be a real wolf. No. I‘m absolutelysure that Natalie is the so–called wolf that broke his heart.

An awkward chuckle slipped from Steven as he finally responded, “I won’t actually kill that wolf, Sam. Iwas only kidding.”

“How have Franklin and Sophia been during these two days when I was away?” asked Samuel as heunbuttoned his collar.

“Things have generally been fine. The only issue was that they constantly asked to see Natalie.” Stevenrubbed his temples before adding, “I almost couldn‘t fend off against their whining. Fortunately, Grandpagave me a hand, and we managed to stop them from barging into the hospital.”

Chapter 125

Franklin entered the ward with a bouquet of red roses in his hands. He immediately handed them toNatalie and said, “These are from me, so you have to accept it. You can‘t say no!”

Natalie had never received a single rose throughout her life.

Thus, she could not help but smile while looking at Franklin‘s adorably blushing face. “Of course, I‘llaccept them. Thank you.”

A surge of glee went off in Franklin‘s chest. He was overjoyed but tried to hide it from Natalie. As his lipscurved upward, he hurriedly covered it with his hand, not wanting anyone to see how pleased he was.

“You don‘t have to thank me. I–I bought it for you just because we passed the florist on our way here.”

Just then, Steven interjected, “Well, actually... We were indeed on our way here when Franklin told me tostop at the roadside for about half an hour..”

“Uncle Steven!”

A brilliant shade of red crept up Franklin‘s cheeks as the truth had gotten exposed.

“Jeez! Can‘t you keep your mouth shut? Y–You‘ve embarrassed me!”
