A Cue for Love novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234 The Strange Manor

In the security guard’s eyes, Natalie’s looks were average, but the calm vibe and strong presence she exuded made him feel that she was an important person.

At her question, the guards immediately dropped their hands.

Not long after, a man in his fifties with a gray coat approached them in hurried steps. Once he spotted Natalie, he asked, “Dr. Nichols? Please come in. My employer has been waiting for your arrival for a while now.”

“Right.”

They even knew my last name?

Natalie’s stomach dropped.

As expected, Julian hired someone to break the firewall Xavian had built and discovered my identity. Instead of waiting for him to blackmail me, I might as well use myself as leverage to negotiate with him to avoid dragging Clayton and Xavian into this.

The man introduced himself as the butler of the Todd residence. He continued to lead the way through the magnificent garden and into the huge, luxurious manor.

The exterior of the manor seemed majestic, while the interior was resplendent. Any plant from the garden was worth at least a million. All the paintings hung on the walls were done by leading international artists.

Natalie was astounded by the extravagant decoration.

After walking for a long while, Natalie was starting to feel numb in her feet when she finally reached the living room in the main house.

The maid approached, carrying some tea and pastries, then set them down on the table. Milton Cheney, the butler, said with a bow, “I’ll bring my employer over.”

Natalie nodded with acknowledgment as she continued to study her surroundings.

The decorations were luxurious. It should have given off a feeling of being in a bright and open space, but the entire manor merely gave off a sense of being trapped in a cage. The atmosphere was depressing, sending chills down her back.

Soon after, footsteps approaching the living room sounded from afar.
