A Cue for Love novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360 Revenge For Mommy

“That’s what you think. It doesn’t mean Lionel shares your sentiments.” Yara approached Lia’s bed and sneered, “He only sees you as his sister. And yet, you harbor desires for him! If outsiders find out that he was adopted from the orphanage by your parents, do you think your uncles would still accord him the same level of respect? Once his identity is exposed, you’ll remain the princess of the Johnson family, but Lionel will fall from grace and have his world turned upside down.”

Despite the pain she felt, that was the threshold she couldn’t cross.

And it was for that same reason she went along with Yara’s plan to frame Natalie.

“If you know what’s good for you, you should keep your mouth shut,” Yara warned. “If I have a need for you going forward, you had better do as I say. Or else, you will have to suffer the consequences.”

Lia clenched her fists upon hearing Yara’s words.

When Lionel returned with the flowers in a vase, he saw Yara staring at Lia with a smile. “Lia, remember to obey your brother and have a good rest. I’ll drop by again when I’m free.”

Instead of responding, Lia pursed her lips.

Nonetheless, Yara didn’t care as she waved at Lionel.

“Bye, Lionel.”

“When did you get to know her? She looks pretty and seems to be a wonderful person,” Lionel casually remarked after putting the vase beside Lia’s bed.

However, Lia snapped, “Lionel, how can you like her when you don’t know anything about her?”

“Lia, I-”

When she saw the shock on Lionel’s face, Lia quickly realized that she had overreacted just now.

“Lionel, I’m tired and want to rest.”

Lia pulled up her blanket and covered it over her head.

Although she didn’t want to be Yara’s puppet, she couldn’t allow the secret to be revealed.

She didn’t mind the gossips that would ensue but was cognizant that Lionel couldn’t afford to do so.

At the same time, the guilt she felt over what she had done to Natalie continued to torment her.

Meanwhile, in a café near Starlight Kindergarten, Xavian and Clayton ordered a glass of milk and a piece of cake each.

The two brothers alone had attracted the attention of many ladies around them.

Nevertheless, they were already used to it and could filter out the gossip naturally.
