A Cue for Love novel Chapter 657

Chapter 657 Parenting

Natalie was furious when she found out the kids had purposely hid it from her.

Now that she saw the teary-eyed Clayton, she couldn’t get even one word out of her mouth to admonish him.

Instead, her heart clenched even tighter at the sight of him, apologizing so cautiously.

Noticing Natalie’s silence, Clayton tugged on her sleeve hesitantly. “Mommy, I know I’m wrong. I won’t do it again.” Realizing what he said, he immediately added, “I promise you there’s no next time.”

Natalie couldn’t hold on to her anger any longer with Clayton sobbing.

“Did Sophia treat your wound?” she asked instead.

“Yeah.” Clayton nodded his head. “She was worried that my injuries wouldn’t heal, so she treated them for me. It’s not her fault, but mine. If you want to punish me, then so be it. I hope you won’t punish any of them.”

“You silly boy. You’re still trying to protect your sister at a time like this, huh?”

“I—”

“Do you think you can hide it that long without them covering for you?” Natalie undid the bandage on his arm and examined the injury. “I’m not that petty. I’ll let it slide this time with no punishment, but if I catch you doing something like this again, I’ll give all of you the cold shoulder treatment.”

Clayton laughed upon hearing Natalie’s words.

“Okay. Our Mommy is the best mom in this whole wide world!”

“Stop trying to butter me up.” Natalie cast a side glance at him and said, “Your injury must have hurt and itched the whole time. It must have been tough for you to act like nothing happened in front of me.”

A small smile tugged on her lips when Natalie noticed that Sophia did a good job at treating the wound.

This girl is much more talented than I thought.
