A Cue for Love Chapter 27
You Seem Dissatisfied
Who else? Yara, of course!
However, Natalie could not bring herself to utter that name. She could only bury it deep in her heart.
“Mr. Bowers, you know who I’m talking about. There’s no need to ask me.”
Samuel lifted his gaze lazily and looked at Natalie.
“Ms. Nichols, it seems like you are very dissatisfied with me.”
“I wouldn’t dare,” lied Natalie.
Her face turned red as she thought of the time he had kissed her until she was dizzy. Even her heart started beating quickly.
Samuel could tell that she was frustrated, yet he still spoke indifferently.
“Franklin and Sophia went on a hunger strike just because they wanted to see you. Now that you’re here, they’re obedient again. What if they break the rules or their agreement with someone one day? Should I just let them act out like how they did today? It’s not that I don’t care about them. I just don’t want to encourage their irresponsible behavior.”
Natalie realized that the concern he had

Even though Natalie had experiences in putting Xavian and Clayton to sleep, she only knew of the story of the three little pigs.
Upon starting the story, she saw the uninterested gaze of the two children.
What do I do now?
Natalie cleared her throat and said, “I don’t have any good stories. How about I sing you a song?”
Franklin and Sophia’s eyes lit up as they nodded enthusiastically.
With that, Natalie began singing a folk song from Loang. Her voice was not as beautiful as the sounds of nature, but it was light and soft.
After a short while, the children shut their eyes and fell asleep.
Natalie did not get up right away. She stayed and watched the children.
If my babies didn’t die because of Yara, they would be as adorable as these two, wouldn’t they?
As she thought of how she had carried her babies to full term but failed to protect them in the end, tears welled up in her eyes.
After a while, she tucked the children in and turned to leave. However, she noticed a figure standing by the door.
Before Natalie could wipe away her tears, she felt Samuel’s gaze upon her.
