A Cue for Love novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19

Natalie lowered her head upon hearing that. Guilt crawled over her as she met Xavian’s clear, innocent eyes. A-Allergic reaction?This clearly isn’t. However, I can’t possibly tell a five–year-old child what a kiss is. Besides, how do I explain the kiss with Samuel?

As she could not find a better explanation, she decided to go with the flow.

“Yes! I-It’s an allergic reaction…”

“I see…”

“Mhm. That’s all there is to it.”

Blinking his big eyes, Xavian asked in an anxious yet serious tone, “Mommy, what about your ear? Why is it bleeding?”

His eyes were pure and innocent, with worry written all in them.

Natalie choked on her own saliva upon hearing that. She cleared her throat before replying, “Sweetheart, thank goodness that you didn’t visit Granny’s grave on the mountain with me today. There were so many insects! My lips and ears were all bitten by them.”

“Mommy, I’ll get you some ointment.”

Despite his high intelligence, Xavian was still merely five years old. Hence, he did not find Natalie’s words suspicious.

Natalie felt relieved upon seeing the boy take her words for it. She then cursed at Samuel ferociously on the inside.

Tsk tsk! It seems like Yara failed to satisfy Samuel’s desire. I was dragged to this, thanks to her!

Xavian soon returned with an anti-inflammation ointment and his laptop.

After Natalie took the ointment from him, he placed the laptop in front of her and rubbed his tiny hands eagerly. “Mommy, I’ve found a man who’s identical to Clayton and me. Clayton agrees that we do look alike after viewing the photo | sent.”

Natalie rested her head on one hand and revealed Xavian’s true thoughts with a single sentence.

“Are you guys still searching for your ideal dad because you don’t believe that man is your father?”

Owing to that, the two fellows walked their own paths, seeking their real father.

Clayton was scouted as a child actor. He had accepted the offer, hoping that his real father could see him on the TV.
