NovelAppChapter 909 Lie
Samuel looked as handsome as always in the video call.
He was wearing a white blouse which made his body look tall and slender. Even though it was such a
simple outfit that would make ordinary men look as though they were real estate agents, there was an
air of elegance around him when he wore it.
His facial features were sculpted. Especially his eyes that seemed to hold a whole universe in them.
Anyone would fall for him the moment they laid their eyes on him.
It had been a long time since they last met, and Natalie was overwhelmed with mixed emotions.
Poignance, embarrassment, pain, and many more emotions held her back as if she were a puppet,
making her stand rooted to the spot as she stared at the man on the screen.
“Mommy, we’re having a video call with Daddy,” Sophia said as she walked toward her mother. Then,
grabbing the latter’s hand, she said in a cute fashion, “You haven’t seen Daddy in a long time, have
you, Mommy? Come talk to him with us!”
Natalie wanted to refuse at first, but the words of rejection got stuck in her throat the moment she met
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇther daughter’s innocent eyes.
In the end, she nodded in response.
She was pulled over to the screen. By the time Natalie finally looked at Samuel, she had already reeled
her emotions in. “Have you been doing well?”
“Yes. What about you?”
“I’ve been busy,” the man said, his answer short and concise as usual.
“Me too. Dream is very stable in Chanaea now, but it’s still like a blank sheet in Loang. There’re still a
lot of businesses and collaborations that we have to look into.”
“Okay.”
At that, the two of them stayed silent as they stared at each other through the screen.
Seeing this, the five children were left speechless.
They thought that their parents would voice out their yearning for each other the moment the see each
other. Who would have thought that they would only talk about work and end up with nothing else to
talk about in the end.
This…
Do they think they can deceive us with such an act?
Samuel saw that Natalie wasn’t comfortable. “I have a meeting later, so I’ll hang up now. I’ll call you
guys later when I’m free,” he said.
“Okay.”
Franklin and Sophia were reluctant to let him go, but all they could do was watch as the computer’s
screen turn dark.
Natalie stood up and forced a smile as she said, “Kids, I have a few proposals I have to work on, so I’ll
be heading to the study now. Look for Emma if you have any problems.”
The children waited for her to close the door behind her before sitting in a circle as they heaved a sigh
in unison.
They had only speculated that their parents were in a fight previously. However, with what had just
happened, they were sure that their guess was correct.
Mommy and Daddy are going to separate soon!
“What is wrong with Mommy and Daddy?” Xavian asked with furrowed brows. “Should we ask
Mommy?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmClayton shook his head and said while patting the former’s shoulder, “There’s really no denying that
you have a high IQ, but low EQ. If Mommy wanted to talk about Daddy, she would have done so
earlier. They had such an awkward conversation earlier because she doesn’t want us to worry.”
Puffing out his cheeks, Xavian said, “I know that! But if Mommy doesn’t talk about it, and we don’t ask,
how would we know what really happened between them? We finally have a daddy and a mommy. If
they really do separate, wouldn’t everything return to how it was back then?”
“We can’t rush this,” Franklin said. “They must have their own reasons if they aren’t willing to talk.
However, I don’t think that they will separate. Even though things were awkward between them earlier,
didn’t you guys notice that they couldn’t keep their eyes off of each other? How could people with no
love stare at each other like that?”
Sophia and Yumi exchanged glances with each other, and they couldn’t help but ask, “That’s true.
Then, what should we do now?”
“The simplest is always the most effective,” Franklin said. “We’ll act like we don’t know anything. Then,
we’ll try to get them together more. I believe that there’ll be a time to talk things out.”
Nodding in agreement, Clayton said, “I agree. We’ll pretend like we don’t know and help Daddy keep
an eye out for any rivals. We have to make those who want to get close to Mommy to back off.”
The three other children agreed to the plan after hearing what their brothers had said.
