A Cue for Love novel Chapter 1139

Chapter 1139 Real Motive

Cynthia did it without arousing Natalie’s suspicion. Natalie met Cynthia’s eyes and flashed an unnatural smile. “Lady Cynthia, I may have to disappoint you. I don’t think I’m your friend’s daughter. My mom is dead, but she died a few years back instead of over twenty years ago.”

“I see.” Cynthia wasn’t expecting to hear that. However, Natalie’s words weren’t enough to quell her doubts. She wasn’t sure if Natalie was telling the truth. Besides, Natalie resembled that woman so much that she could be the latter’s daughter.

Those from the royal family were pretty good at putting on an act. Having spent years in Luna Palace, Cynthia was naturally a great actress. She retracted her hand nonchalantly and hide the hair strands between her fingers, all the while keeping a pleasant smile on her face.

“It’s fine. Even though you’re not my friend’s daughter, you look like her. That’s enough for me to feel close to you.” Cynthia then turned to her maid and ordered, “Tell Ximena to give half of the pastries she prepared to Natalie.”

“Understood.” Upon receiving her order, the maid turned and left the private room to do as told. “Lady Cynthia, you don’t have to do that.”

Cynthia beamed at her. “It was fate that brought us together. The sight of you brings me joy. I’d love to meet you here to have pastries and coffee together.”

Instead of getting all excited just like the other noblewoman, Natalie replied calmly, “If I have the time.” They then chatted for some time.

Glancing at her watch and realizing it was near evening, Natalie got to her feet and bade goodbye to Cynthia. “Goodbye, Lady Cynthia.”

“Demi, walk Natalie out.” The maid walked Natalie out of the shop and returned to the private room. She gave Cynthia a bow and reported, “Lady Cynthia, Ms. Nichols has already left.”
