A Cue for Love novel Chapter 172

Chapter 172 Joy

After that phone call, Xavian did not dare to contact Samuel.

He was afraid that he might accidentally reveal information about Natalie’s whereabouts to Samuel. However, it was very hard to stop himself from spilling the beans.

He would always stutter whenever Samuel called, worried that he might say something he should not have. Luckily, Samuel was too focused on the rescue operation to notice anything wrong with Xavian. Nonetheless, Xavian still felt bad for not telling Samuel the truth. Natalie, on the other hand, stayed at home all day and waited for her hyper-realistic mask to arrive.

When the mask was finally ready, Yandel was the one who delivered it to Natalie’s doorstep.

Natalie immediately opened the package and put on the hyper-realistic mask. She looked at herself in the mirror to make sure that her beautiful face had once again transformed back to the freckle-covered face.

After checking countless times, she was finally relieved to see that the new hyper-realistic mask was exactly similar to the one she had lost in the river.

Yandel scratched his head and said, “Boss, I think you should meet Samuel as soon as possible. He’s looking for you high and low, and even I caught wind of it. He even stated that whoever found you will be given ten billion as a reward…”

Ten billion?

Natalie was shocked to hear that.

She thought that Samuel would have given up on the search already, but now it seemed he had gone the extra mile to find her.

Hearing that, Xavian frowned and agreed with Yandel. “Mommy, you promised me you’d contact him after the mask is ready!”

Indeed, Natalie promised Xavian that she would contact Samuel once she got her new hyper-realistic mask. Hence, she nodded and dialed Samuel’s number after tidying the place for a bit.

The call connected after several rings, and a man’s hoarse voice could be heard from the other end of the phone. “Please wait a little longer, Xavian… I will find her… for sure!”

A few days had passed since Natalie last heard Samuel’s voice, and she was shocked to hear how raspy his voice had become.

She immediately felt guilty before even saying anything in return.

 

“Samuel, it’s me… Natalie.” Natalie felt bitter as she said slowly, “I’m still alive.”

A long pause then ensued. All she could hear was the man’s heavy breathing and the sound of the wind.
