Chapter 92
She remarked inwardly that, Winston was as partial as ever.
“Mr. Gurray, are you agreeing to let Samantha into our family now?”
Winston waved his hand and said impatiently, “We will talk about other stuff when we meet SamanthalTM
After that, Winston turned to Francis. In a gentle tone, he once again reminded his grandson, “Remember to bring Samantha back to meet us soon and bring Ryland along. The sooner the better, and preferably tomorrow.”
Francis immediately stood up and said, “I’ll go back and discuss it with her now.”
Then, he walked away.
Zachary stared at his eldest cousin’s cold back and couldn’t help but complained inwardly.
*Francis said that they aren’t together yet, but his words made it sounds like they are already living together,” he thought.
Living under one roof when they were not yet together was really weird.
Now, he could only think that Francis had lied to them all as if they were kids who knew nothing.
After Francis returned to the mansion, he went back to his room to clean up first. Then, he went to Samantha room and knocked on the door.
“Samantha, are you asleep?”
Not yet. Come in.”
Francis pushed the door open and went in. He then saw Samantha sitting in front of the laptop, looking like she was playing
a game.
“What’s the matter?” Samantha asked him.
Francis sat on the sofa with his long legs crossed casually while looking at Samantha intently.
His voice was gentle and pleasant when he spoke.
“Samantha, my grandfather asked you to take Ryland to the Gurray residence tomorrow.”
“Why?” Samantha asked.
“He wants to o meet you!
Samantha took a glance at him and met his focused gaze. She then pursed her lips awkwardly.
“Hasn’t be seen me at the gate of the kindergarten today?”
“He didn’t want to just meet you.”
Then what kind of meeting does he want to have with me!”
Francis was speechless and thought that Samantha was really quite simple–minded.
Francis thought for a while before starting to explain the matter.
“It’s a family meeting. The ‘meeting grandson’s wife kind of meeting.”
“Grandson’s wife!

“You…” Francis hesitated for a moment but still couldn’t help asking, ‘Have you thought about what I said yesterday?”
Thinking of yesterday, Samantha’s ears turned red and her voice unconsciously lowered.
“Not yet…”
The atmosphere froze as they both fell silent.
Francis spoke first after around a minute of silence.
“Samantha, is there any reason why you don’t want to be with me?
“No…” Samantha was no longer in the mood to play the game. She held the mouse in her hand, but the character she was playing was already dead.
Her ears turned red and she whispered, “I just don’t know how to deal with this kind of thing
“Okay, then I’ll wait for you.” Francis suddenly stood up and said, “If you don’t want to go tomorrow, then we won’t go for now. I’ll wait for the day you make your decision.”
After a a slight p pause, he added, “I’ll wait for you no matter how long it takes.”
Then, Francis left.
Samantha looked at his back and suddenly felt sad.
She seemed to feel that something in her heart was also closed the moment the door was closed,
It was as if she was being smothered. There was a dull pain in her heart, and she felt uncomfortable all
OVET
She paid no attention to her teammates in the game who were scolding her and asking her what was going on.
症
Samantha lay on the bed alone, thinking about Francis confession to her yesterday.
She wondered what she was actually worrying about.
Samantha did not know why she rejected him.
Perhaps she did have a feeling for Francis.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be as depressed as she was at the moment
Still, Samantha wondered what was she worrying about.
She scratched the back of her head and thought about it for a long while
In the end, she finally understood what was going on.
She was actually scared.
She was afraid that the person Francis liked was Samantha, and not her, Samantha.
This scared her even more. She was afraid that they would treat her as a mutant and abandon her if they found out about her secrets one day-
The warmth she had now was a flecting thing. She would not have it forever.
She complained a lot about the two children, saying that they were troublesome and that she was tired of being a mother every day.

The fact was, the two children warmed her heart.
Samantha had been an orphan since she was a child, and she grew up with blood on her hands.
Except for the little boy who appeared in her life when she was a child, she never knew the meaning of warmth.
Now, however, it was Francis and the two children who gave her warmth.
Their family of four now ate their
accompany the children to read als together every day, and they went shopping together. She and Francis would
and play with Lego.
These were all the things that Samantha had never experienced before.
This was something she yearned for from the very bottom of her heart yet never dared to ask for.
However, she retreated in fear when it was now within her reach.
All because she was scared.

As the top assassin, Samantha was called Somnus, Reaper, and Hades. She was known for being deadly, yet she was still afraid at the moment.
It was only now that she found out that humans‘ hearts were so fragile.
Hers included,
