A Cue For Happiness

A Cue For Happiness Chapter 230

Xavian, Franklin, and Sophia ran downstairs, with Xavian taking the lead. He clung onto Natalie’s leg the moment he saw her and looked up at her worriedly. Natalie bent down and cupped Xavian’s cheeks. She then locked eyes with him to signal him to keep quiet about the incident. A son knows his mother by instinct. So naturally, Xavian understood what she was implying. He kept quiet even though he had a lot to say to her. This was because he knew how much effort Julian had spent to locate her. She wanted him to keep it a secret not only because she didn’t want the others to worry, but also because of how dangerous the situation was. Natalie didn’t want her kids to be involved in this mess. She was planning to handle it all on her own. A veil of sadness shrouded his eyes even though he understood her intentions. “I sent Clayton over since you’re all alone in the Bowers residence.” Natalie stood up and introduced Clayton to Franklin and Sophia. “This is Xavian’s big brother, Clayton.” The four kids sized each other up. Instead of hating on one another, the four of them felt as if they had been long-lost siblings even though they had different last names. That was especially the case for Sophia. She quickly became the center of attention. Sophia’s eyes shone brightly as she took in Clayton, Franklin, and Xavian. They were really gentle even though all three of them had different personality types. A sweet smile appeared on her face. “I have three big brothers now besides Franklin. Welcome to the family, Clayton, and Xavian.” Clayton and Xavian had always wanted to have a baby sister. As such, they clenched their fists tight as their hearts burst with excitement when Sophia referred to them as her brother. They swore to themselves that they would pamper Natalie and Sophia from this day onward even though Sophia wasn’t their biological sister. After settling down, Franklin brought Clayton around the Bowers residence while Sophia followed behind with a teddy bear in her arms. Meanwhile, Xavian stayed behind. He frowned and turned to face Natalie. “Mommy, can I tell Mr. Bowers about the incident?” “No.” Natalie shook her head and smiled. “I’m already knee-deep in this mess. It’s best if fewer people know about this.” “But—” “No buts, Xavian. Listen to me.” Clayton’s room was soon ready under the instructions of Gavin. At nine in the evening. Natalie thought all four of the kids would go straight to bed after she bathed them. However, much to her surprise, Sophia tugged the corner of her shirt with one hand while holding on to her teddy with the other. Her eyes were glistening as she looked

up. “C-Can you tell us a bedtime story? Daddy promised he would, but he never did. Franklin has always been the one to tell me bedtime stories.” Sophia had recovered from aphasia and would no longer stutter when she speaks. She had a sweet and soft voice ever since then. Natalie probably wouldn’t have agreed to it if the request came from the three boys. However, she couldn’t bring herself to refuse Sophia. It felt as if she was her beloved child. “Yes, of course!” Natalie was surrounded by Sophia and the three boys when she read them their bedtime story. She didn’t know why, but it reminded her of the fraternal twins she had lost. If they’re still alive right now, can I tell them bedtime stories and put them to bed like what I’m doing right now? Natalie suppressed her emotions and started reading them a fairytale. The kids listened to her with gusto even though her storytelling tone was flat. They only returned to their rooms reluctantly to sleep when she declared that she was tired. After the four kids fell asleep, Gavin walked over to Natalie and said, “I don’t know when Mr. Samuel will get back. I’ve already prepared a room for you. Do you want to get some rest first?” Natalie planned to leave first thing tomorrow. Hence, she must meet Samuel that night. “Gavin, you should get some rest. I’ll wait for him in the living room.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
