A Cue for Love Chapter 813

Chapter 813 Disappointment

Benjamin stared at the depressed Natalie and pursed his lips silently.

After breakfast was over, both of them sat across each other in the study.

He crossed his arms and asked, “Did you search everything relating to the moon logo?”

“Mhm.” She nodded somberly. “I looked through everything related to the moon and other similar shapes and found nothing. No new leads on the secret compartment could be found.”

“Maybe we’re looking at the wrong direction?”

“No,” she replied resolutely. “Yara was shot because she betrayed Blaze. She also had a very good reason for telling the truth. The chances of her lying are next to nothing. The reason we can’t find anything is that we’re approaching this in the wrong way. We need to look deeper and further.”

Staring at the cold and headstrong woman in front of him, a glint of light flashed across his eyes. “All right. I’ll keep searching with you.”

Before she began her search, she went to the bathroom to freshen up.

After calming herself down, she returned to Yara’s bedroom.

It was most likely that Yara would hide some clues in the place she stayed the most often.

Benjamin searched through the room with Natalie.

Fearing that she would miss out on any important details, Natalie got down on the floor and searched under the bed.

She took a good look at it and found nothing. Just as she was standing up, she failed to realize he was right behind her, causing her forehead to knock into his chin.

“Ouch!” That caused both of them to fall to the ground.

Both of them stared into each other’s eyes. He could clearly see the face that was very close in front of him.

Her eyes were as clear as water, and her skin was silky smooth.

Embarrassment flashed across her eyes for a brief moment before disappearing. Her small hands propped her body up on both sides of his body, allowing her to lift herself away from him.

When her fragrant hair brushed his cheek, for some reason, he felt his heartstring being tugged along by her.

“I’m sorry…” He spoke in a deep voice.

Instead of saying anything, she stared in his direction with her full attention.

She pursed her lips silently and crawled toward him.

Benjamin glanced at her with confusion. What is she doing?

His gaze was fixed on Natalie as she crawled closer and closer to him. Because of the postures they were in, he could see her delicate body under her clothes in full view.

As she got closer to him, he felt his heart thumping louder and louder. “Natalie?”

When Natalie arrived at his side, she said seriously, “Don’t move.”

He was confused as he could feel her getting really close to him. The fragrance coming off her body was dancing in front of his nose.

His eyes slowly closed as he waited for her to get even closer. However, all he heard was a clicking sound coming from behind him.

In the next second, when he opened his eyes, he noticed she was already quite far away from him.

Still, he could feel his heart thumping like crazy at the left side of his chest, as though it just had a line of cocaine.

“Natalie, you—”

“Stop lying there and turn off the lights. I saw something.” She didn’t realize he was blushing so hard that blood almost dripped out of his ears.

That was because she was staring intently at the spots projected from the ceiling.

It was then he realized he had mistaken her intentions. The reason she approached him was that she wanted to flick the switch of the projector behind him.

It was just a misunderstanding, and yet, he couldn’t help but feel disappointed when he thought about what had happened.
