A Cue for Love Chapter 729

Chapter 729 Inherited From Daddy

Natalie’s eyes were still half-mast from having just woken from a deep sleep, and her sweet, gentle voice was tickling Samuel’s ear.

Instead of answering Natalie, he repeated his question, “I asked how your nap was?”

“Comfortable.” Natalie nodded as she responded unguardedly.

“My shoulder is numb from acting as a pillow for you, so you better perform well in bed tonight until I’m satisfied.” He turned to her, staring into her eyes with a burning gaze.

Natalie just wanted to offer to massage his shoulder earlier, but he took it the wrong way, and the entire conversation had swerved to PG 18.

Lifting her eyes to meet his dark ones, she could read the depth of his longing for her. That infatuation was on the borderline of paranoia and unhealthy obsession.

His fiery gaze seared her, causing her heart to pound fervently. She realized belatedly that she had already mumbled a soft “yes” when she snapped out of her daze.

After that, they both got out of the car, and Samuel habitually reached for her hand as they walked back to the Bowers residence.

Gavin hadn’t seen Natalie for the past few days, so he was glad when she came back. He greeted her with a kind smile, “Ms. Natalie, you’ve finally returned.”

“Thank you for taking care of the kids during my absence,” Natalie said, returning a friendly smile.

“You don’t have to thank me for it. It’s part of my job.”

At that moment, four chubby kids exchanged glances when they heard Natalie’s and Gavin’s voices. Realizing that Natalie was back, they raced to her side.

“Mommy!”

“Mommy!”

“Mommy!”

The kids reached her side in no time, and she became the attention of the four children with cute, chubby faces and dark, big eyes. The sight had filled Natalie’s empty heart with warmth.

“Franklin! Xavian! Clayton and Sophia!”

Natalie dropped to her knees and looked at the kids with red rims around her eyes.

She had kept her longing for the kids on a tight leash due to her busy work, but the second she saw them, the leash loosened, bringing tears to her eyes. I missed them so much too.

Clayton said, “Mommy, you’re so thin now.”

“Mommy, you worked too hard. If Daddy doesn’t want to support you, I can,” Xavian said with pouting lips.

Franklin shot Samuel a disgusted glance. “Daddy, if you can’t take care of Mommy, the four of us can.”

“That’s right!” Sophia pitched in, “I didn’t spend any money that all the uncles gifted me. I can give everything to Mommy.”

Natalie hadn’t even said a word, and Samuel was already on the receiving end of the kids’ despise.

Samuel watched as the kids surrounded Natalie, feeling resigned at the remarks they threw at him. He thought it was funny that the kids had different characters and features but inherited the same thing from him.

Their love for Natalie must have been engraved in their DNA. All five of us Bowers can twist the facts for Natalie’s sake.

Seeing the kids being so protective of her, Natalie was touched but figured she still needed to clear Samuel’s name. “I was just a bit tied up at work, so I couldn’t have my meals on time. Now that I’m back, I’ll regain my weight after a few hearty meals. As for you guys, did you finish your homework and behave yourselves when I wasn’t around?”

“We did!” the kids chorused immediately.

Worried that Natalie would want to check the kids’ homework, Samuel quickly cut in, “Gavin has prepared dinner. Let’s have dinner first.”
