A Cue for Love novel Chapter 890

Chapter 890 Unable To Move On Part Four

“Still single…”

Patricia’s gaze was fixated on Natalie. Judging from Natalie’s answer, it meant that Jerome still had a chance.

“Natalie, you’re only twenty-four. There’s plenty of time and you should be cautious in choosing your life partner. There’s no rush to get married. It’s one thing to capitalize on your youth, but marrying an atrocious partner will be tormenting, just like how your mother suffered throughout the years.”

Patricia was advising Natalie genuinely based on her own experience.

Natalie could tell that Patricia was speaking from her heart, but it was a second too late.

Natalie never believed in love. It was unimaginable to experience the grievance of loving someone, only for one’s heart to be trampled by betrayal. The devastating pain would be impossible to move on from.

“I understand.”

“It’s a great opportunity to expand your company in Loang. It will be perfect if you can stay at Yaleview from now on.” Patricia’s eyes glistened with joy. “With Jerome and your Uncle Daniel around, no one can bully you in Yaleview!”

“Thank you so much.”

After dinner, Natalie played a few rounds of chess with Daniel.

Having waited two years to challenge Natalie again, Daniel, despite his valiant efforts, was once again defeated by Natalie.

Daniel nonetheless took it lightly. As opposed to being frustrated, he took pleasure in the challenge.

It was eight o’clock at night.

Natalie bid goodbye to Patricia and Daniel.

Daniel was still analyzing the sophisticated moves by Natalie in the last two rounds of chess.

Patricia however interrupted him and lifted the chessboard up. “Hey, you! It must be tough for Jerome, given that you’re his father.”

“Put down the chess board!” Daniel frowned. “What do you mean? Are you saying that it’s a disgrace for Jerome to have me as his father?”

Natalie stood at a corner while staring at her five children.

Among them, Sophia’s medical skills still required further guidance from Natalie.

After a while, Natalie asked Sophia to join her in a one-on-one session.

Natalie had grown immune to Sophia’s meteoric improvements over such a short span of time. Looking at her progress, Sophia had already mastered the syllabus for the first and second grades in the university for traditional medicine.

Natalie started crafting a new syllabus to be adopted into Sophia’s learning program. After that, she wanted to carry Sophia back to her room.

Out of a sudden, Sophia curled her arms around Natalie’s neck. Her dark, round eyes welled up, and she seemed like she wanted to say something.

Natalie quickly asked, “Sophia, what do you want to tell me?”

“Mommy, I miss Daddy.” Sophia tightened her grip and spoke in a tender manner.
