A Cue for Love novel Chapter 540

Chapter 540 Did He Bully You

Samuel took Natalie’s hand in his and glared at Kenneth. “Now that you’ve seen Natalie and the kids, I believe there’s nothing else to say or do,” he said bluntly, “so we should get going.”

“How dare you!” Kenneth looked outraged.

Samuel knew he could not deal with his grandfather the same way he was accustomed to dealing with people who displeased him. Therefore, the only way he could assert his dominance was by being firm with his grandfather that Natalie was his woman and that was an irrefutable fact. He would defend her from everything to the best of his ability, whether he had Kenneth’s support or not.

Samuel turned to leave while holding her hand but Natalie did not budge.

“Nat?” Samuel asked with a frown.

“I appreciate your concern for me, Samuel.” Natalie glanced at Kenneth before continuing. “Your grandfather treated me with respect tonight. Even the kids hardly get to see their great-grandfather. Let’s stay a little longer. I need to catch my breath after getting up.”

“Are you really…”

“Yes.” Natalie was amused yet touched by Samuel’s anxiousness. “Ask the kids if you don’t believe me.”

The four kids nodded in unison.

Franklin raised his hand as if taking an oath. “Great-grandpa did not misbehave today. I can vouch for him.”

“Me too!” Sophia piped up.

“I believe you.” The knot in Samuel’s brow loosened with the overwhelming reassurances.

Kenneth watched in admiration at how loyal the children and Samuel were to leap to Natalie’s defense.

Before, he was under the impression that Natalie was a manipulative woman.

Their most recent encounter had changed his mind. Kenneth began to realize that she deserved everything she had because she was loyal to them in return.

As the excitement simmered down, the three adults and four children sat huddled around the fireplace that wintry night.

Having been left unsatisfied with the outcome of the earlier game of Go, Kenneth coerced Natalie into another with Samuel and the children spectated the game attentively from the side.
