A Cue for Love Chapter 13
My Daddy Is Senile
Franklin froze when he heard that. Then, he turned around to look at Samuel, who was entering the dining hall.
Samuel still had his phone in his hand, and the top two buttons of his black shirt were undone. He looked extremely intimidating as his dark eyes filled with anger.
The little boy pursed his lips before puffing up his cheeks, calling out reluctantly, “Daddy.”
Natalie shuddered internally when she met those dark and bottomless eyes of that man. This little snake boy is actually Samuel’s son? So that means he has a pair of twins? Sophia isn’t his only child?
Samuel glared at Franklin coldly before saying, “What in the world are you thinking with that underdeveloped brain of yours? You, taking her as your woman? What makes you think you can do that?”
Franklin was visibly afraid of Samuel. However, when he remembered that he had so boldly declared that he would protect Natalie earlier, he realized that he couldn’t act too cowardly in front of his father. Hence, he plucked up his courage and replied, “Daddy, I like her. I want her to stay.”
Samuel frowned even harder. “Do you even understand what you’re saying?”
“Of course, I do!” Franklin touched his earlobes, his cheeks flushing. “Daddy, you can’t be so prejudiced. I’m already all grown up, so I know that I have to be proactive in pursuing the woman I like.”
“Who taught you this?” Samuel asked coldly.
“Um…” Franklin felt slightly guilty under his father’s gaze.
Who. Taught. You.

For some reason, Natalie felt like she was a newborn baby, naked as day, under his intense stare. He studied her so seriously that she was even feeling somewhat guilty.
“Sophia has had aphasia ever since young. I’ve brought her to see countless doctors, and they all told me that her condition isn’t physical but psychological.” After a pause, Samuel continued, “You’re the first person to make her speak, saying the word ‘Mommy’.”
“I made her speak?”
“I don’t see the need for me to lie to you about this.” He glanced at Natalie before saying frostily, “I only want you to let Sophia open up.”
Upon hearing that, she breathed a sigh of relief internally. Luckily, this isn’t about my cover getting blown.
“As long as you can heal Sophia’s condition, I will fulfill any wishes that you have.”
“There’s no need for that.” Natalie shook her head and smiled.
“Humans’ greed is immeasurable. I know that.” Samuel raised his eyebrows while he spoke, his voice filled with restraint and apathy. “What wish do you have that even the Bowers family is unable to give you?”
“I think you’re the greedy one here.” She rolled her eyes at him. “I meant what I said. I don’t need the Bowers family to satisfy any of my needs.”
Natalie sounded resolute when she answered Samuel, her eyes filled with a glacial look.
“Mr. Bowers, I am willing to treat Sophia’s condition for nothing in return.”
“For nothing in return?”
Natalie’s clever eyes were gleaming when she replied, “I like Sophia, and I don’t mind getting more chances to see her. That is all. I’m not interested in anything that has to do with you or the Bowers family.”
