Chapter 266 Do Not Get Drunk

Phoebe was someone who would never let her emotions show on her face. Hence, regardless of how envious she was of Natalie, she did not express it openly.

However, Susan was the exact opposite. She had been the apple of the eye among the Leister family and had been well adored since young.

Her love for Samuel had bloomed since her prime of youth. She had given up previously as she thought she had lost to the twins’ mother. But now that she saw Samuel kissing someone whom she had never seen before, she could no longer suppress the burning rage within her.

“Why is it her? Why can’t it be me? I’m better than her in every way. Why did Samuel choose her instead of me? Susan was seething with anger.

“Perhaps she made use of peculiar tactics to seduce Mr. Bowers?”

“I’m sure that is it!” Even though Susan’s voice sounded sweet, her eyes were full of vicious intent. “If I can’t get Samuel, I won’t let that woman get him either! I’ll make sure her reputation is ruined at my party tonight!”

“Susan, you…”

“You have to help me, Phoebe.”

Meanwhile, Samuel reluctantly let go of Natalie’s lips and rested his forehead against hers while adjusting his heavy breathing. The kiss did not last too long despite it being a passionate one.

Natalie was not faring any better either. She was panting heavily, trying to catch her breath.

“H-How can you do that? Y-You’re being unreasonable.”

“You’re so attractive that other men are coveting you. If I don’t assert dominance, you’ll be taken away by other men sooner or later.” Samuel leaned close to her ear and whispered.

Natalie could not wrap her head around Samuel’s behavior.

All she knew was Hector’s wine, which she supposedly would receive as a gift, had disappeared for good because of him.

“My wine…”

Among the vast number of interests, one of Natalie’s favorite was savoring good wine.

Knowing that she had such an interest, Yandel had searched many good wines for her throughout the years. But of course, no one would complain about having too much wine! At the thought of how she had missed a bottle of precious wine by a hair’s breadth, she felt crushed by disappointment that even her gazes dimmed.

“You love wine that much?”

“Mmm.” Natalie nodded. “Of course, we should enjoy it while we can. Savoring a good wine is like savoring merriment in life.”

“Not only do the Leister family have a winery in Livingsfill. I have a private one too,” Samuel uttered.

“Oh!” Natalie was startled for a tad moment before she could react.

“Do you own a lot of good wine in your winery too?” Her eyes lit up at the mention of good wines.

Seeing her expression, Samuel unknowingly curled his lips up into a smile. “From this moment on, the winery is yours.”

A bottle of wine? And the whole winery?

Immediately, her sorrow, as well as the embarrassment from Samuel’s sudden kiss earlier, had vanished into the air.

“Are you sure?”

“No.” Samuel deliberately said the opposite.

“Stop lying to me. I’ve heard you clearly earlier. You said the winery is mine.” Natalie smiled so brightly her eyes narrowed. “Hehe! All of the wine in that winery belongs to me now!”

“It’s all yours, on one condition.”

“What is it?” Natalie stared at him curiously.

“From now on, you can only get drunk while you are with me.” Samuel gently tucked Natalie’s messy hair behind her ear while fixing his gaze intently on her. “I’m the only one allowed to see your drunk look, but no one else. I don’t care if they are men or women.”

Natalie’s heart was pounding wildly.

She could feel Samuel’s possessiveness toward her.

Isn’t this man acting way too aggressive?

But even so, she did not feel suffocated by his overwhelming affection. On the contrary, she appreciated the man’s tender love, care, and protection for her.

“Samuel, thank you.”
