The Contract Said No Strings Attached (Charlotte) novel Chapter 385

Rebecca frowned. “How are you planning to handle this?”

Samuel’s eyes turned cold. “I’ll deal with it my own way.”

Rebecca’s worry showed. “Samuel, just take it easy, alright? We don’t want him thinking the Thomson family throws its weight around.”

Samuel ruffled Rebecca’s hair, his voice gentle. “Relax, I know what I’m doing.”

Just then, Rebecca spotted four little heads poking out from behind a hedge. She walked over to them, her tone tinged with mock reproach. “Where have you all been? I’ve been searching everywhere!”

Ethan blinked innocently. “We’ve been here the whole time, just watching the show.”

Rebecca raised an eyebrow. “Watching the show?”

Ethan grinned, then glanced at Samuel. “Don’t worry, Uncle Samuel, we didn’t see a thing.”

The other three kids nodded in unison. “Really, we didn’t see anything at all!”

Samuel’s face darkened. Losing to Dylan in front of these four little rascals—how was he ever going to look cool again? Maybe it was time to put the boxing gloves away for a while.

Rebecca, sensing Samuel’s embarrassment, quickly changed the subject. “It’s getting late. Let’s head home.”

Samuel nodded. “Alright.”

At that moment, Joyce stepped forward. “Samuel, do you want to get that checked out at the hospital?”

Samuel shook his head. “It’s just a scratch. No need for the hospital.”
