The Promise Of Happiness

Chapter 1205

Knitting his brows, Samuel felt his chest tighten.

“Nat, Nat!” he shouted.

The volume of Samuel's voice was not low, but the woman in his arms did not open her eyes. They remained tightly shut and her face was so deathly pale that it set him on the edge.

He knew that her life was not in danger, but it was hard not to worry when she suddenly fainted.

Samuel trusted Natalie completely, and even went along with her plan to scam the king. However, that did not mean that he was not afraid of the dangers that could befall them at any time.

On the other hand, Mikhail utterly disregarded his image as a monarch and ran to Samuel and Natalie. Staring intently at his unconscious daughter, a wave of bitter feelings coalesced in his heart.

In the past, Mikhail had only thought that Natalie resembled Jennie in passing.

Now that he knew that Natalie was actually his and Jennie's daughter, he could no longer suppress the concern and care he felt toward the former. He was even willing to risk his life in exchange for his daughter's safety.

“Give her to me!” Mikhail reached for Natalie.

Pursing his thin lips, Samuel shot Mikhail an icy glare.

Mikhail was the king of Loang, and he felt it was his right to demand Samuel return his daughter to him. However, the cold look Samuel gave him made him feel inexplicably pressured.

Hmph! I'll let it slide this once since your feelings for her seem to be sincere. Mikhail withdrew his hand and said to the attendant who stood by his side. “What are you dawdling for? Send for the best royal physicians from Luna Palace!” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Upon receiving the orders, the attendant immediately ran to get the royal physician.

Just then, Bastien, who was also badly hurt, wanted to check out Natalie's condition.

However, before he could even step forward, he was blocked by Jerome. “Prince Jonathan, you've hurt your leg. You mustn't move around.”

“I only wanted to check her condition...” Bastien's lips were pressed in a straight line.

“If I may be so bold to ask, which persona are you asking as?”

Flummoxed, Bastien found himself unable to say anything.

“We're not likely...” Bastien glanced at Jerome, enunciating each word through gritted teeth.

Jerome replied calmly, “Maybe you are, or maybe you aren't. You don't have to come up with an answer right this moment. His Majesty seems to have recognized her as his daughter, so blood tests will certainly be carried out. Everything will be made clear then.”

Bastien's eyes dimmed, but he was unable to refute Jerome's words.

With so many clues pieced together, the answer was obvious. In fact, it wasn't that hard to see the full picture, he merely did not want to admit it.

Samuel and Mikhail hurriedly brought Natalie to the nearest bedroom.

Patricia looked at Mikhail's and Samuel's protective stances with tears in her eyes. Unbidden, her lips curled into a smile.

“Natalie returning to Loang and reunited with Mikhail... If Jennie could see this all from heaven, she would surely be ecstatic.” Patricia blotted her eyes, tears still leaking out despite her smile. “It was a long and arduous journey for Natalie, but she finally made it!”

Moved by Patricia's sentiment, Daniel felt a bittersweet pang in his heart as well.

He patted her back and said brightly, “Everything will be all right! Natalie has already front-loaded all of life's hardships, so she will only have good things from now onward. She currently has so many people who love and cherish her.”

Patricia nodded fervently. “Yes. You are right!”

The setting sun dyed the sky red. It was as if someone had hung up a rich maroon brocade in the sky.

There were many things in life that could not be expressed with words.

The people there were the same ones from earlier that morning. However, their identities, statuses, and relationships had changed unknowingly.
