A Cue for Love novel Chapter 498

Chapter 498 Not His Apprentice

Malcolm felt like he was about to explode from frustration when he heard that.

He had thought that apprentices were supposed to behave respectfully toward their teachers and wondered why all three of his apprentices were such feisty characters.

His most senior apprentice had just called him shameless while his second apprentice complained that he was naggy. Even his last apprentice often disregarded him.

“You rascal! It really doesn’t pay to be kind these days!” Malcolm ranted. “Just make sure you don’t get too mesmerized by that junior of yours later. For all you know, you might end up pleading with me to put in a good word for you.”

“If she’s really that outstanding, you can introduce her to my other junior instead.”

“Well, he is indeed quite interested in her.” Malcolm ran his fingers through his beard before saying, “Isn’t it obvious that I favor you?”

“Well, there’s no need for you to do that.”

“How can you be so ungrateful!”

Malcolm had originally intended to play matchmaker for his two apprentices, but he did not expect to be snubbed by Samuel.

Fine!

I’ll just leave him on his own then!

Samuel could not be bothered with the old man and headed to the VIP lounge upstairs to rest.

In fact, what was to be discussed at the conference did not matter to the man at all. His sole objective that night was to keep Natalie company, even if he could only do that from a distance.

Malcolm was not in a hurry to head to the VIP area. Instead, he started looking for his beloved apprentice among the crowd.

However, he did not manage to find her after searching around for a while.

Although the old man had a sharp tongue, he was actually a big softie on the inside, and his last apprentice was, in fact, his favorite. As he wanted Natalie to be able to spot him the moment she entered the hotel, he left the conference hall and headed toward the hotel lobby to wait for her instead.

Just then, Yara, who was dressed in a white evening gown, walked in.

Instead of wearing her hair down, she styled it into an elegant bun that matched her dress perfectly. The evening gown was exquisitely designed, with feathers and rhinestones attached to the shoulder straps, giving it a luxurious and vintage feel.

As Thomas was busy chatting with an acquaintance, he was not with Yara.

After Yara displayed her invitation card, she walked toward the hotel lobby.
