A Cue for Love (Natalie and Samuel)

Chapter 617 The Plan

Natalie knitted her brows in response. Since when did the two brothers start keeping secrets from me?

And here they are, insisting that there’s a gorgeous moon out there despite the starless sky.

“A beautiful moon?” Leaning downward at them, Natalie let out a mischievous smile. “Tell me, boys,

where is the moon?”

Staring at the empty sky, the brothers couldn’t find the moon either.

“Erm…” Clayton was stumped.

“We…” Xavian was equally speechless.

When she saw their guilty faces, Natalie was certain that they were hiding something from her. As talking

about the moon’s beauty was a common pick-up line, Natalie wondered if the boys were experiencing

puppy love.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her speculation was spot on.

“Do you have a secret that you’re unwilling to share with me?” Natalie knelt down to be at eye level with

the children. “If you meet any girls in the kindergarten whom you can click with, don’t doubt your own

judgment, and don’t worry about me freaking out.”

In the process of growing up, every child will encounter all sorts of strange problems. Most importantly,

they should learn how to have faith in themselves and not doubt their own decisions. That way, they will

continue to progress and mature with the passage of time.

Clayton and Xavian were dumbstruck when they realized that Natalie had misunderstood them.

Just when Xavian wanted to clarify that they weren’t having relationship problems, Clayton tugged his

brother’s sleeve at once.

He added, “Mommy, you’re right. Xavian and I know how to deal with this appropriately. Therefore,

there’s no need for you to worry at all.”

What the? Xavian stared blankly at Clayton as he admitted to the matter.

“Mmm-hmm.” Natalie nodded. “In that case, both of you carry on with admiring the moon. I’m going back

to my room now.”

“All right, Mommy. Good night.” Just like a family man, Clayton gave Natalie a slight smile.

While Xavian was still stunned at his feet, Clayton tugged his sleeve discreetly again. Regaining his

senses, Xavian then added, “Good night, Mommy.”

Thinking that Xavian was behaving awkwardly due to her reading his mind, Natalie tousled his hair to

comfort him. “Clayton, Xavian, good night.”

Right after Natalie left, Xavian gave Clayton the side-eye and asked quizzically, “Clayton, obviously, we

aren’t having any relationship problems, so why did you admit to it on our behalf?”

“What else can we do other than admitting to it?” Clayton spread his hands. “I’m sure you know how

smart Mommy is. Considering how we were reacting just now, she would definitely suspect something.

Besides, our conjecture is merely speculation as of now. Consequently, there’s no need to alarm her

unnecessarily. Furthermore, she likely remembers how persistent we were in asking her about our family

origins. Even then, she never gave us a proper answer.”

After explaining the situation to Xavian, Clayton’s expression gradually turned grim.

“I’m sure you remember the time I kept pressuring her with questions surrounding our birth. In the end,

she simply broke into tears. Considering what an exceptional person she is, I will never forget the scene

in which she cried endlessly when I brought up the circumstances of our birth five years ago.

“Xavian, I want to know the truth about our family origins too. However, I don’t want her to be hurt while

we investigate the matter behind her back. No matter what, she is the most important person in our lives.

As long as it makes her happy, I am willing to do and accept anything. Even if our birth father turns out to

be a murderer, it wouldn’t change anything at all!”

Just when Clayton had finished, his eyes began to moisten.

Having heard his brother’s words, Xavian nodded with a bitter expression in his heart.

“You hit the nail on the head. Our mommy is the best one in the whole wide world. For her sake, I too am

willing to do whatever it takes.” Clenching her fist, Xavian declared, “We must definitely try our best to

protect her!”

“Mm-hmm, that goes without saying.”

Even though the two brothers constantly competed against each other for their mother’s attention, they

were undoubtedly united in their desire to protect her.

“Xavian, this is what we should do…” Clayton began whispering the details of his plan into Xavian’s ear.
