A Cue for Love novel Chapter 774

Chapter 774 Lovely Braid

Yumi regarded Natalie’s warmth for a moment before removing the jade key from her neck meekly. “Here you go.”

Natalie solemnly accepted the jade key, helped Yumi into a clean pair of skirts, and dried her hair before concluding the ritual by putting on a little blue headband that held her hair neatly of her brow.

The quadruplets were already standing in wait outside the bathroom when Natalie emerged with Yumi.

Except for Franklin, who remained a little unapproachable, the other three surrounded her enthusiastically. “Are you hungry, Yumi? Let’s have dinner together! Our chef makes delicious food!”

Yumi felt Natalie’s warm hospitality shining through her children. As a result, the nervousness that had accompanied her from the moment she first arrived began to be gradually replaced by a sense of complacent security. She beamed and accepted their offer to dine gratefully.

As one, The five children thundered down the stairs to the dining table in boisterous anticipation for a hearty dinner.

Natalie, on the other hand, slipped away to the bedroom and carefully placed the jade keys entrusted to her into the safe.

The reason why she wanted to take the jade key away was that, on the one hand, Yumi may damage the precious jade key. More importantly, Natalie was worried that the jade key would bring danger to Yumi. I’m sure there are people out there who are aware of the special meaning that the key might hold. Such a valuable artifact will undoubtedly drive people with ulterior motives to obtain it with every means necessary. In addition, the recent turmoil in Loang makes this coincidence even more unsettling. This complication does not change the commitment I have made to raise Yumi and keep her safe. I will return it to her when she is in need of it.

After a double-check on her safe to placate her sense of foreboding, Natalie went downstairs to join her children for dinner.

Five ravenous children seated around the slightly cramped table made for a lively scene.

Instead of being irritable at the noise, Natalie savored the commotion by watching her own children satiate their curiosity with the newcomer.

To her surprise and pride, Natalie noticed that her own four must have come to a private agreement against asking sensitive questions about Yumi’s past. Their efforts seemed to have paid off as Yumi appeared very relaxed, even more so after having a larger dinner than the other four.

Natalie retired to the study at the conclusion of one of the best dinners she had ever been a part of.

As per their custom, the four children retired to the playroom they shared.
