A Cue for Love novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63 Daddy Was Dead

Natalie was indeed staring at Samuel without blinking, but it was still embarrassing to be pointed out by Xavian. She felt so awkward that she hoped the ground would swallow her up.

“Don’t be silly, Xavian!” Natalie cleared her throat.

“I’m not being silly! Mommy, you are adding the steak sauce into the salad! The salad is ruined!” Xavian pouted.

Natalie lowered her gaze at the salad in her bowl.

Just like what Xavian had said, she was adding the spicy sauce she added to the steak just now into the salad bowl.

She knew that Xavian was telling the truth, but there was no way she could bring herself to admit that she was indeed staring at Samuel.

“You don’t get it. I like eating this way.” Trying to pretend nothing had happened, Natalie stuffed a mouthful of salad topped with the spicy steak sauce into her mouth without hesitation.

The steak sauce was never a good combination with the salad.

However, she had to maintain her image in front of her son, so she kept a straight face despite the weird taste in her mouth.

Hang in there! You can’t embarrass yourself in front of your son!

Natalie forced herself to swallow the salad, and Xavian did not notice anything wrong with his mother.

Samuel, on the other hand, was filling Natalie’s glass with soft drinks. He looked amused and was wearing a charming grin.

She is so cute when she’s acting stubborn.

After dinner, Natalie took a glance at the greasy dishes and cutleries and rolled up her sleeves. She then piled the dishes up and carried them into the kitchen to wash them.

Meanwhile, Xavian dragged Samuel into his room.

Xavian sat cross-legged on his bed while Samuel sat on the floor mat. They stared at each other wordlessly for some time.

“I remember you said you weren’t interested in Mommy when we met last time!” said Xavian as he rested his chin on his hand and lifted his eyebrows.

“You’re right.”

“I’ve already told you that my mommy is excellent. She has both talent and beauty. Now you know I am not lying to you, don’t you? So, do you regret saying that? Are you planning to change your mind?” Xavian said proudly.

“No, I’m not changing my mind.”

Samuel frowned deeply upon hearing Xavian’s words, and a grim expression appeared on his face.

Why did she assume I was a smuggler and a robber? Why did she leave Sophia and Franklin behind, without even knowing about their existence? Why did she forget everything about me?

After Natalie had finished doing the dishes, she opened the door to Xavian’s room to see the two of them sitting cross-legged together in front of the large computer screen.

They were both holding their phones and were playing games together as a team.

Neither one of them noticed Natalie standing at the door, as they were too immersed in the game.

“The assassin is coming from the middle lane. Come here and assist me quickly!”

“Okay.”

Natalie had played games with Xavian before this.

However, she had never seen such a bright and happy smile on Xavian’s face when she played with him.

When Samuel and Xavian were playing games together, they looked like father and son.
