A Cue for Love

Chapter 1088 Endure

Anna was in a tough spot. Seeing the hesitation on Anna’s face, Natalie didn’t push her friend and simply waited for a response. After a long consideration, Anna’s hands clenched tightly before she raised her head to look at Natalie. “You’ve helped me a lot, Natalie.

If I didn’t meet you at Fullmoon that night, I would’ve been ruined by that b*stard Caleb. I wouldn’t have been able to protect my daughter. For so long, I’ve been waiting for a chance to repay my debt to you. Now that I’ve finally gotten the opportunity to do so, of course I’ll do my best!”

Natalie could sense there was something more going on between Anna and her father. However, she was an outsider, so she wasn’t going to question her friend about it. Still, she was touched by the fact that Anna was willing to help her out. “Thank you, Anna.”

With a faint smile, Anna shook her head and muttered, “That’s what friends are for, right? No need to be so polite. Actually, back in Fullmoon, when I was chasing after Caleb, even though it was painful, I never once abandoned the idea of winning him back. I was so stupid.

All I could see was that man while completely forgetting about my daughter. If you hadn’t helped me see his true ugly self and forced me to end my relationship with him, I think I would’ve been stubborn until the very end. I probably wouldn’t have been able to protect my child. While it was merely a kind gesture on your part, that completely changed my and my daughter’s fate. So, no matter what, I must help you with this!”

Those were the words she had wanted to tell Natalie for a long time. At the moment, Natalie only had a working relationship with Anna. From Anna’s perspective, however, Natalie was her savior, the person she was the most grateful to in her life.

Natalie had basically changed the course of her life that night. If Anna was driving on the wrong track before, Natalie was the one who corrected it. “Sleep at my place tonight, Natalie. Tomorrow morning at five, we’ll set off to replace my father,” Anna informed.

“Okay.” Meanwhile, Zophie grabbed a bottle of clean water and two buns before approaching Yumi. “Eat.” The woman spoke petulantly before crouching down in annoyance. “You better eat.”

The girl was frightened by Zophie’s awful tone. Even though her body was restrained, she still couldn’t help but scoot backward a little and curl up in fear. She’s so scary! In reality, Yumi was afraid.

However, when she recalled Natalie’s reminder and promise on the phone, most of the fear in her heart dissipated. The frightened look in her eyes was replaced by a more resolute one.

While Zophie studied the girl in detail, she noticed Yumi’s confused gaze had gradually regained focus.

“Witchcraft!” she cursed. I have no idea what Natalie told her, but she seems much more stable compared to when she was initially captured. Even the light in her eyes is getting brighter. What kind of person is Natalie? Not only was she able to blow up Blaze’s research base in Chanaea, but she also managed to adopt this special child! She’s even willing to offer that invaluable treasure to get this child back. Although… So what if she’s incredible?

Lifting her hand, Zophie grabbed Yumi’s cheek and stuffed the buns into the girl’s mouth. “Eat this right now! I better not see you spitting it out!”

Yumi’s mouth was filled with the buns.

After being left in the open for too long, the buns were no longer soft. Additionally, she was being force-fed the buns, so she was having a really difficult time swallowing them. Her cheeks swelled as her face turned red.

Despite that, she didn’t resist and slowly chewed the buns. I promised Mommy I’ll wait for her! I’m going to eat until I’m full and try to stay in top shape so I won’t drag Mommy down when she comes to rescue me! This pain is nothing! I can endure this! Mommy said she’ll rescue me! I know she won’t go back on her promise!
