Chapter 1024 Loss Of Taste
“This one month has allowed me to completely understand what it feels like to be separated from your loved one.”
Samuel’s eyes narrowed slightly as he slowly added, “Many words that I previously found to be cheesy seem to be
so much easier to convey now…”
He did not utter those words half-heartedly but with unprecedented sincerity.
Contrary to him, Natalie was merely joking. However, she did not expect to receive such a serious response from
him, so she could not help but feel a little surprised.
Not wanting to continue listening to his sweet nothings, she picked up some food and said, “Enough of that. Let’s
eat while it’s hot.”
“Okay.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie preferred spicy food while Samuel’s taste was milder.
However, as Emma was taking care of Natalie before Samuel came along, the food Emma prepared had all the
heavy flavors that Natalie preferred.
Emma had prepared pickled fish that day. No one knew what kind of spices she used, but even Natalie, who enjoyed
spicy food, could not help but take a few more bites.
However, after Samuel had some of it, his visage was still pretty much bereft of emotion.
“What do you think of the fish, Samuel?” Natalie asked with a slight frown.
He narrowed his eyes. “Why do you ask?”
Natalie’s left hand clenched into a fist, but she still pretended to be calm and asked, “Don’t you think the pickled
fish that Emma prepared today is quite mildly-flavored?”
Without hesitation, Samuel nodded and replied with a smile, “Yes. This fish is very bland. Maybe Emma knows I
don’t like heavy-flavored food, so she made it tasteless. I’ll tell her to pay attention to the taste in the future.”
Natalie was stunned by his words.
The fish… is bland? How can it be?
She kept her eyes glued to him for a moment as if she wanted to see right through him.
Samuel couldn’t tell that I was lying, and he, a person who dislikes heavy-flavored food, had almost no reaction
when he ate the pickled fish. There’s only one possibility… He has lost his sense of taste. He can’t taste anything at
all!
Natalie clenched her fist tighter, and she could feel her heart aching.
This man… Even though his condition has begun to deteriorate and the toxin has begun to erode his nervous
system, he still acts as though nothing’s wrong before me to the point that I can’t even tell that the poison has
taken effect.
Although she knew that Samuel was acting to deceive her, she still had to play along with him.
He’s keeping it a secret because he doesn’t want me to worry. In the same way, I’ll keep mum because I don’t want
him to worry about it.
At that thought, Natalie unfurled her fist, placed her hand on the table, and held his hand. “You don’t need to tell
Emma about this. It’s fine to eat milder-flavored food since you like it. Besides, it’s also good for your health.”
Samuel nodded with a smile. “As you wish.”
“Okay.”
Despite the pain in her chest, she had to smile widely so that he would not detect anything.
Both Natalie and Samuel were extremely stubborn. Unless absolutely necessary, neither of them was willing to

The next day, Natalie received a call from the Leitz family.
“Is this Ms. Nichols speaking?”
Natalie had only met Helma a few days ago, and Anna was also busy with the design draft. By right, even if Helma
wanted to see the design draft sooner, she wouldn’t be this eager to see it.
Hence, Natalie was a little surprised to receive the call but quickly composed herself.
“That’s me. Can I help you?”
“Ms. Leitz would like to meet you,” the man on the phone drawled.
Natalie subconsciously felt that the design direction of the jewelry might need to be revised, so she nodded. “No
problem. I’m free at any time.”
“I’ll set the meeting as tonight then. I’ll send you the location later.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Heidi turned off the male voice changer and reverted to her original alluring female
voice.
“I’d like to see if Samuel will still want you if you were defiled, Natalie!”
