    A Cue for Love Chapter 226


    I Dare


    Natalie took a bite of the butter cookie andmented, “She’s quite pretty, just not very friendly.”


    Christopher drummed his finger on the table. “Nichs, please fire Cherry,” he instructed the moment


    Nichs entered the room.

    Nichs stared at him in disbelief. However, he immediately caught on as he turned to face Natalie


    and nodded in acknowledgment.


    “Understood.”


    Natalie couldn’t be bothered toment after Nichs left. She simply stared at Christopher as if he


    was crazy.


    He’s crazy, so I shouldn’t be too surprised.


    She had no desire to know Christopher, nor get herself involved with him.


    In fact, she would keep her distance and stay as far away from Christopher as she could the moment


    she got her hands on the snakeblood fruit.


    Christopher thought Natalie had a really unique character as she red at him. She would never go


    along with the crowd nor ingratiate herself with the rich and powerful. On the contrary, she had a strong


    sense of self and was always level-headed.


    Christopher reached out in an attempt to remove her hyper-realistic mask. It was as if he had been


    bewitched by her.


    He couldn’t forget her real face ever since he saw what she really looks like when she passed outst


    time.


    However, Natalie stood up before he could eveny a finger on her face.


    A red-orange glow outlined her form as the sun’ste evening rays shone on her. “I’ve kept my promise


    to you. Isn’t it time for you to hand the snakeblood fruit you promised over to me?” Natalie said coolly.


    Christopher froze in midair. He stared at his hand for a moment, burst intoughter, and put his hand


    down.


    He then retrieved a wooden box from his drawer before handing it over to Natalie.


    Natalie opened the box excitedly. Sure enough, there was a glowing bright red fruit in the box. There


    was even a faint scent of herbal wafting from it as she drew closer.


    It was the snakeblood fruit.


    Moreover, this snakeblood fruit had a stronger medicinal effect than the other three fruits she used on


    Yana.


    Yana can have more time now. Natalie smiled from the bottom of her heart upon the thought, and her


    eyes shone in happiness.


    “Thank you.”


    Natalie closed the wooden box and thanked Christopher.


    “I’ll be getting out of your way, then.”


    Christopher knew Natalie was going to chuck him aside the moment she got her hands on the


    snakeblood fruit. However, instead of getting angry, he mentioned something that would pique her


    interest.


    “Brat, you’re already so happy with one snakeblood fruit. I can’t imagine just how much happier you will


    be if I gift you the dragonblood fruit.”


    Natalie paused when she heard him mention the dragonblood fruit.


    “Do you know where it is now?”


    “One of my doctors suggested that I use the dragonblood fruit to manage my pulmonary disease.


    Hence, I’ve been looking for it ever since.” Christopher walked over to Natalie. “The dragonblood fruit is


    of no use to me anymore now that I’ve recovered, thanks to you. However, I’ve recently received news


    of the whereabouts of the dragonblood fruit…”


    “Really? So, where is it?”


    Christopher smiled devilishly as he watched Natalie’s eyes lit up. “Brat, I only promised you the


    snakeblood fruit. Why should I tell you the whereabouts of the dragonblood fruit for no reason?”


    Natalie saw thising. However, she couldn’t help but try again for Yana’s sake.


    “Then, tell me what you want me to do in order for you to disclose the whereabouts of the dragonblood


    fruit.”


    “I don’t know.”


    “What do you mean you don’t know? It’d mean the world to me if I could get my hands on the


    dragonblood fruit. The medicinal effect can help cure a good friend of mine.” Natalie narrowed her eyes


    and said coldly, “I promised her she would live with her husband to a ripe old age. So, I’m not in the


    mood to joke around with you.”


    “I’m not joking around with you either. I just haven’t figured out what I want from you.” Christopher’s


    eyes lit up. “I can tell you the whereabouts of the dragonblood fruit first, but you’ll owe me one wish


    from now on. I wille to you the moment I figure out what I want. Do you still have the guts to carry


    on?”


    Christopher thought Natalie would need some time to think about it. However, she replied without


    missing a beat, “Bring it on, Christopher.”
