A Cue for Love novel Chapter 744

Chapter 744 Sweep It Under The Rug

After about forty minutes, Samuel’s car pulled to a halt outside the Bowers manor.

The moment he stepped into the manor, he caught sight of all the elders and relatives of the Bowers family seated while waiting for him. Wearing a look of utter solemnity and grimness, everyone had their eyes on Samuel.

As the head of the family’s elders, Miguel was seated at the head of the table. His white beard looked striking against his traditional attire in black. Placing his intertwined hands lightly above his cane, he glowered at Samuel with penetrative eyes.

He was supposed to be grounded at his villa at the moment. Even so, Samuel was not surprised to see him there. He presumed someone must have helped pull strings for him to be there.

Other than him, Yuvaan, the second elder, Xylan, the third elder, and even the others from the Bowers family who did not manage to show up previously were there. At that very moment, it was as though they had readied themselves to battle against their mortal enemy.

Everyone held their breaths as pin-drop silence ensued in the whole manor.

Miguel turned crimson with fury when Natalie was nowhere to be seen. He rose to his feet at once and fumed, “Where’s that woman? Why didn’t she come together with you? How could you back her up and oppose the whole Bowers family?”

He did not even address Samuel formally with respect and sounded as if he was a police officer interrogating a suspect.

Unperturbed by his questioning, Samuel remained as nonchalant as ever. With one hand in his pocket, he responded placidly, “Since she’s not the culprit, there’s no point for her to show up here. After all, I’ll unearth the truth as promised.”

Hearing that, everyone in the hall could not help drawing in a sharp gasp. As they fastened their gazes on Samuel, there were mixed emotions of disbelief, disappointment, and disdain in their eyes. They could not fathom why the youngest and most omnipotent patriarch of their family would go against them because of a woman.
