Chapter 852 Just Leave It To Me

Shortly after those words had left his mouth, Luna bit down on her lip so hard that it began to bleed.

Although Samuel had refrained from mentioning Natalie’s name, Luna knew full well that he was referring to her.

Samuel’s words could be perceived as both a warning as well as a threat to Luna.

He had practically threatened to harm her entire family if she let that secret slip.

Luna clenched her fists tightly as she replied, “You worry too much. I would keep your condition a secret even without you threatening me, and I will keep trying to treat you until the very end.”

Samuel nodded, and his voice went back to normal again as he said, “Okay. Putting that aside, there is one more thing I need your help with.”

“Go ahead, Mr. Samuel.”

“I need you to help me put on a show.”

Luna went wide-eyed with shock and disbelief after hearing Samuel’s plans. “Are you sure you absolutely have to do this? You’d break her heart and leave her devastated! Come on, try to be more positive about this! There might be another way to cure your of your poisoning!”

Samuel broke into a wry smile as he asked, “And what if there isn’t?”

“I…”

While Luna struggled to replace the right words, Samuel continued, “Do you really want me to watch her live her life in guilt and self-blame for what happened to me? She got covered in wounds and nearly lost her life trying to get me an antidote before. If this is going to happen again, I’d rather let myself die in secret instead.”

“What if Ms. Nichols wants to bear this burden with you?” Luna asked.

Samuel’s eyes teared up as he replied, “She may want to, but I don’t. I don’t want her risking her life looking for an antidote, nor do I want her keeping me company as I wither away and die.”

Samuel is either being egotistical or selfishly making huge decisions on his own again… He must really love Natalie to the bone if he doesn’t want her to suffer for him…

Luna let out a wry chuckle at the thought of that.

Since Samuel had already made up his mind, Luna knew better than to try and talk him out of it. “Don’t worry, Mr. Samuel. I will give you my full cooperation.”

“All right,” Samuel mumbled softly before leaving her place.

He then drove toward the greenhouse in the middle of the garden.

The place had already been designed according to the blueprints he personally drew up, and it looked incredibly beautiful.

The inside of the greenhouse was adequately illuminated with string lights, and the air was filled with the faint aroma of roses. Samuel felt like he was lying in a sea of flowers the moment he entered, which showed just how romantic and dreamy it was.

Justin, who was monitoring its construction on-site, came running over the moment he saw Samuel.

“See? What did I tell you, Sam? You can rest assured that this project is in good hands! We should be able to complete the work here by tonight, so you can bring Natalie over tomorrow! I’m sure she’ll be so touched when she sees this that she’ll agree to marry you on the spot!” he exclaimed excitedly.

Samuel simply nodded at him and said, “Thank you for the hard work.”

“Please, there’s no need for thanks between us! Besides, you asked me to help out because you acknowledge my capabilities!” Justin replied with a chuckle.

However, his smile faded seconds later when he noticed the troubled look on Samuel’s face.

“Sam, the preparations for your proposal are almost complete. Why do you look so depressed?” he asked curiously.

“You’re imagining things. I’ll be proposing tomorrow, so I need you to contact Natalie and have her come here at seven,” Samuel replied calmly.

Justin patted himself on the chest as he said confidently, “No problem, Sam! I’ll make sure Natalie shows up for your proposal on time! Just leave it to me!”
