A Cue for Love novel Chapter 1052

Chapter 1052 The Same Moon

After showering, Natalie changed into clean nightwear and lay down on the bed. She then took an extra pillow and hugged it tightly before breathing in the scent of the pillow.

It had been almost a week since Samuel left. She missed him. She yearned for him even more after the startling episode on the rooftop earlier.

The man had risked his life to get the best treatment for his wife. In fact, he had been repeating his wish to save her even when he was on his deathbed.

Perhaps she would take the same path Barnaby had taken if that happened to her and Samuel. Mount Draghide was a remote place with barely any communication devices.

Natalie turned in the bed to look out the window at the bright moon. I wonder how Samuel’s doing now. Meanwhile, on top of Mount Draghide, Malcolm sighed as he watched Samuel, who was biting on a wooden stick.

Although Jorden said he was rather confident in getting rid of the poison in Samuel, Malcolm could not help but feel that the process of ridding the poison was simply excruciating.

Per Jorden’s words, the process would be akin to a rebirth—it was a trip to the grim reaper’s house. Moreover, it had been six hours. In other words, Malcolm’s dear disciple had been on the verge of death for six hours.

Malcolm could only watch Samuel helplessly as his heart ached, for any medicine he could give to alleviate the pain might interfere with the antidote Jorden had developed.

He left silently.

Samuel continued to stay in the dark room, but his eyes were fixed on the bright moon outside the window.

He silently told the moon about his longing for Natalie.

He had promised her to return safely no matter what.

Even if he had to go through the pain akin to getting skinned alive or melted alive, he was still going to endure it and get all the poison out of his system.

“Nat…” Samuel called out hoarsely.

Although the two were separate, their minds were preoccupied with thoughts of each other that night. Both passed through the long night with their yearnings for one another.

The next day, the news of the robbery spread like wildfire.
