A Cue for Love Chapter 374

Chapter 374 Have You Removed Your Mask

Previously, Kenneth had visited the hot spring resort for a short getaway, where Yara also followed along.

At that time, Jolene was crestfallen after finding out that her husband was cheating on her. She was constantly distracted from work, and as a result, she messed up the arrangements for Kenneth regarding his stay and meals at the resort.

Because of that, Kenneth had wanted to fire her and get a replacement boss for the hot spring resort. Fortunately, Yara had interceded for her and made Kenneth change his mind on that idea.

Yet, Jolene did not know that was one of Yara’s means to win her over.

Other than the enemies she wanted to get rid of, she wanted to try her best to curry favor with anybody who had some ties with the Bowers family.

And now, it was the exact situation Yara wanted Jolene to repay her debt.

“Ms. Yara, I—”

“Ms. Jolene, you’ve been abandoned by your husband before too. I’m sure you know how I feel right now…” Yara’s tone sounded like she was on the verge of breaking down. “I bore my precious children for nine months, and yet, they’re taking another woman as their mother now!”

Jolene could not help but pity her.

“W-What can I do to help you then?”

“Ms. Jolene, do this… And I’ll take care of the rest…” Afraid that Jolene would be overly cautious at doing her task, Yara purposely mentioned Kenneth. “I’m Old Mr. Bowers’ savior and his chosen granddaughter-in-law. Do you still think that I won’t be able to protect you if anything happens?”

“All right, I got it.”

Upon concluding the call, Jolene immediately began to execute Yara’s order.

Meanwhile, the family of six had finished using the hot spring.

The children’s faces were as red as tomatoes, and their round black eyes were watery and sparkly, making them look much more adorable than their usual selves.

Clayton inched closer to Natalie and whispered into her ears, “Mommy, don’t tell me you have not removed that hyper-realistic mask in front of Daddy yet?”

“Not yet.” Natalie nodded in response.

“I can feel that Daddy treats you and us sincerely,” Xavian chimed in. “Why don’t you remove your mask in front of him tonight?”

Clayton and Xavian were immensely confident of their mother’s looks.

That hyper-realistic mask is super ugly! If Daddy sees Mommy’s real appearance, he’ll surely be mesmerized by it!

“I’ll think about it.” Natalie smiled. “I’ll remove it when I find the right time to do so.”

She did not remove it back then because she did not dare to do it. But as time passed, things became harder as she did not know how to divulge the truth. Now, she was used to living with that face in front of Samuel. Adding on to the fact that the man did not seem to mind, she eventually put the matter at the back of her mind.

Seeing Natalie huddled in a corner chatting with Xavian and Clayton, Sophia grew slightly jealous.

“Mommy, what are you all talking about?”

Even though Franklin did not utter a word, he knitted his brows so tightly that anyone could tell he was extremely bothered by it.

As much as that felt like frustration, Natalie still felt an overdose of sweetness.

Aww! Previously Samuel got jealous of the kids for being close with me, but now, even the four kids are jealous of each other because of me!

Franklin and Sophia were not her biological children. Hence, logically speaking, Clayton and Xavian should still come first no matter how much she adored the former two.

But in actual fact, that was a far cry from the truth.

To her, all four children were of equal importance, and she would risk her life voluntarily for any of them if she needed to.

It took Natalie a long while to console the four little ones before a smile began to appear on their faces.

Even though it was Samuel’s birthday, he still had to settle some decision-making matters for the company. Upon receiving Billy’s call, he rushed back to the room in the resort to get back to work.

As for Natalie, she took the four children for a stroll around the resort.

The hot spring resort was spacious inside out and had a whiff of natural wilderness, possibly due to its location in the outer suburbs.

Having been surrounded by Natalie and her brothers, the overjoyed Sophia hummed to the nursery rhymes she had learned in school.

The fast-paced tunes, coupled with Sophia’s voice, sounded pleasant to the ears as they reverberated through the place.

At the same time, Jolene was hiding amongst the foliage, peeping on the backs of Natalie and the four children. She also had a wooden basket in her hand.
