A Cue for Love novel Chapter 534

Chapter 534 The Kids Are Anxious

The atmosphere was reduced to a state of awkwardness after Natalie finished.

Besides, Franklin and Sophia looked crestfallen upon hearing her words.

The next moment, Franklin pulled Kenneth’s sleeve and argued determinedly, “Great-grandpa, it was nothing like what she said. She said so because she thought you didn’t like her. Also, how can Sophia and I be so clever?”

Sophia blinked at Natalie repeatedly and chimed in, “Exactly! Franklin is right. Mommy, please tell Great-grandpa that you have prepared the gifts for him, while Franklin and I only brought the gifts along with us!”

Since Kenneth was observant, he roughly knew what was going on.

“Why do you say so?”

Franklin and Sophia quickly cast a pitiful glance at Natalie as though they were begging her.

Franklin and Sophia did so much, hoping to improve the relationship between Kenneth and Natalie. Therefore, their effort would pay off only if Natalie played along.

Deep down, Natalie also knew that the kids did it for her.

However, she wouldn’t claim the credit because she didn’t prepare the gifts in the first place. All the more so, it wasn’t as simple as the kids thought to deceive Kenneth.

As Natalie looked into Kenneth’s stern eyes, she explained, “Franklin and Sophia thoughtfully prepared the gifts for you, for they know that these will be just to your liking. I don’t really understand you nor know your preferences. Besides, I can’t possibly know what the horse and lotus mean to you.”

Franklin and Sophia were nervous upon hearing her statement.

“Mommy, Great-grandpa believed that you are the one who has prepared the gifts for him. Why did you want to clarify it?” As Sophia felt that her effort was in vain, tears began to well up in her eyes. “No one knows the truth if you don’t say it.”
