Chapter 743 The Four Fervent Fans

The four kids shifted their gazes reluctantly away from their books and dragged themselves to the dining table to have some fruits.

Meanwhile, Gavin pulled Natalie to a corner of the living room. He looked troubled as if something was bugging him.

Sensing his hesitation, Natalie cut to the chase. “Gavin, just speak your mind.”

After pondering for a while, he stated warily, “I’ve heard about the tragic fate of Old Mr. Bowers, and I never doubt that you have nothing to do with it. However, everyone in the Bowers family is talking behind you, claiming you as…”

His voice trailed off as he paused, considering that Natalie might get upset with his words. Even so, the latter flashed him a mischievous smile and joked, “Are they claiming that I’m a witch that appeared out of the blue, deluding their patriarch and stirring up turbulence in their family?”

Gavin was momentarily stunned before nodding in embarrassment.

“Don’t get me wrong. I only intend to let you know that Mr. Samuel is leaving no stones unturned to clear your name and being protective of you so that you won’t be affected by those rumors. But if he fails to do so, I hope you won’t blame him,” Gavin advised her earnestly. In his eyes, Natalie was not only the spouse of his respectable young master but also a youngster he doted.

Seconds later, he added resignedly, “I’ve been by Mr. Samuel’s side for years. Obviously, he’s deeply in love with you. Nonetheless, Old Mr. Bowers was the former patriarch of the Bowers family, and everyone had a reverence for him all these years. Now that he met his tragic end mysteriously, I’m worried the worst is yet to come for you, other than the others’ oppressive rebuke. Thus, I hope you can stay strong and be mentally prepared for that.”

Feeling touched by Gavin’s words of advice, Natalie nodded and reassured him, “Gavin, don’t worry. I know what to do.”

“All right. I’m relieved that you say so.” Gavin heaved a sigh of relief.

Soon, it was the day Samuel promised to unearth the truth behind Kenneth’s death and give the Bowers family an explanation.

He woke up earlier than usual in the morning. After changing into a black shirt that contoured his broad shoulders and narrow waist, he exuded an impressive vibe of dignity.

Samuel moved as silently as possible so that he would not wake Natalie up. He stepped out after planting a light kiss on her forehead.

Little did he realize that Natalie had already woken up. Not long after he left, she opened her eyes, lifted the blanket, and got down from the bed.

After a quick wash-up, she changed into a black dress before stepping out of the Bowers residence. To keep pace with Samuel, she chose to hop onto a bike instead of driving.

Before setting off, she gave Gerald a call. “Mr. Jones, I’m heading to the Bowers manor.”

“No problem. Everything is well prepared as requested by you,” Gerald reassured her.

“I feel bad that you and Effie have to take the risk this round because of me,” Natalie uttered guiltily.

Natalie was well aware that Gerald was impartial at work. Nonetheless, he crossed his line willingly to assist her this time. Thus, she was utterly thankful to him.

“Mr. Jones, thank you so much!” Natalie thanked him with utmost sincerity.

“Ha! I’m thankful to have you and Effie as my granddaughters. Stop all the formalities. Otherwise, I’ll be flustered.” Gerald pretended to sound annoyed. Even so, there was not the slightest bit of annoyance in his tone.

“Okay!” Deep down, Natalie vowed to repay his kindness one day.

After hanging up, she put on the helmet and stepped on the accelerator to speed off toward the Bowers residence.

Meanwhile, her four kids were hiding behind the door. Gazing at her retreating figure, they could not help gasping admiringly.

“Oh! I’m in awe of our mommy! She’s undoubtedly gorgeous, like a deity. But how could she ride a bike so well and look stunning like an action movie star?” Franklin let out a sigh of admiration.

“Ha! You’d hardly been by Mommy’s side for the past five years. Hmph! Let me tell you. You missed a lot of Mommy’s eye-catching moments!” Clayton teased him.

“Yeah! Mommy is no ordinary woman! Don’t ever think of picking on her!” Xavian puffed up his chest proudly.

“Yeah! Since I’m Mommy’s daughter, I’ll surely take after her and become an outstanding woman like her!” Sophia yelled out jubilantly, her eyes gleaming with a glint of excitement.
