A Cue for Love Chapter 30

The Nickname Is Cheesy

Samuel lowered his head and stared at her.

“My throat doesn’t feel too good,” he replied in a cold and calm tone.

“Why can’t you bear with it? You knew that I was on the phone.”

His gaze turned cold all of a sudden upon hearing her words. “Why should I?” he asked in return.

“You… Are you trying to cause a misunderstanding? What if he thinks that I’m spending the night with a man?”

Wearing a grim look, Samuel approached her slowly. “Isn’t it true that you’re staying over at a man’s place? Moreover, that’s none of my business.”

“You…”

Natalie usually possessed the upper hand in fights as she was a good speaker.

Yet, she could not find a word to refute him at the moment.

“Your standards in naming are truly questionable. The nickname you come up with for your boyfriend is cheesy enough.”

She bit her bottom lip tightly as Samuel’s words sparked a flash of irritation in her instantly. Deep down, she could not help cursing him a million times.

In the end, her mother’s last wish remained unfulfilled.

Moreover, Natalie had missed the chance to say her final words to her mother because she was waiting blindly outside the Nichols residence at that time.

When she finally rushed to the hospital, it was too late—her mother had taken her last breath.

From then on, an insurmountable amount of pain would strike her on every stormy night. It was so painful that it hurt every time she breathed.

Curling up into a ball, she hid in the corner of the bed and trembled with fear.

All this while, she would hug her sons when she was afraid of thunder. However, both Clayton and Xavian were not by her side that day.

S-Should I go to the two kids of the Bowers family? Perhaps they are afraid of thunder as well! Then, we can cuddle together for the night!

At the thought of it, she rushed to the kids’ room without any hesitation. To her disappointment, Franklin and Sophia were sleeping like a log, completely undisturbed by the storm.

Am I the only one who’s afraid of thunder?

Left with no choice, she closed the door and headed back to her room. All of a sudden, a bang of thunder broke the silence. Panic-stricken, she quickly squatted down and covered her ears.

In a flash, the searing pain flooded her heart once again, filling her eyes with emptiness and despair.

Suddenly, a pair of slender legs appeared in front of her.

Startled, she moved her gaze from the pair of slippers to the legs, waist, chest, and finally, her gaze landed on the man’s stunning face.

“What are you doing here, Ms. Nichols?”
