    A Cue for Love Chapter 537


    Shameless Keh


    “Oh no!” Jefford eximed. “I’ve identally upset the board! There’s no way to know who’s in the lead


    now!”


    Keh folded his palms on the handle of his cane and said nothing.


    Natalie’s gaze darted between Keh and his butler and saw through their charade at once.


    The wordless exchange between the adults went unnoticed by the children.


    “You did that on purpose, Jefford!” Franklin yelled. “I saw you flip the board!”


    “I saw it too! I saw it too!” Sophia cried, losing interest in the sweet cakes before her. “How could you


    do something this despicable, Jefford?”

    The old butler blushed at being reprimanded by young children.


    yton looked all serious. “Great-grandpa, did you have Jefford flip the board to avoid having to admit


    that you lost?”


    Keh scowled. “He was the one who did it! What are you implicating?”


    Xavian pursed his lips in disapproval. “If the board had not been flipped, Mommy would have been in


    the lead by six points.”


    As Xavian’s promation rang out in the stunned silence, Keh found his mouth wide open with


    shock.


    The boy is just an observer of the game he’s not a part of! How did he manage to keep track of the


    game so closely?


    “It doesn’t really matter if the board had been upset,” Xavian continued with a shrug. “I remembered


    every move both of you made from the beginning. If you don’t believe me, I can recreate the board right


    before it fell.”


    Kennth tugged at his mustache in awe. “Do you really remember the whole game, Xavian?”


    “I wouldn’t be iming that otherwise.” The boy solemnly dusted the crumbs off his fingers as he


    spoke. “I can even do it right now if you like. Mommy used to beat her master too and he would flip the


    board over just like that. It was always me picking up after them and resetting the board.”


    Keh gazed at Natalie in utter disbelief.


    I can’t believe Malcolm used to lose to her! Even if I came to the match fully prepared instead of


    underestimating her, I might not even be able to win. What a spectacr disy of skill. Every step


    seemed disconnected and casual until the intricacy and patience of her n be fully revealed


    when I find all my pieces trapped!


    Keh was a firm believer in ascertaining one’s true character from the board.


    His fondness of the game was well known, the vast number of acquaintances who had sat across from


    him over the years offered him the opportunity to hone his judge of character on his opponents. To his


    pleasant surprise, he realized that there was much more to the girl than he had initially assumed. Ever


    patient, she did not attempt to fawn all over him like he was ustomed to. Every move she made was


    calm and calcted.


    Before he realized it, Keh discovered a newfound respect for Natalie.


    “There’s no need for that.” Keh rubbed his temples. “You are right. Your mother was six points


    ahead of me. I concede that I have been bested by her.”


    Natalie smiled graciously. “You were lenient with me, Grandpa.”


    Meanwhile, Samuel had just returned from work to an empty home.


    “Gavin!” He summoned the butler. “Where are Natalie and the kids?”


    The butler hesitated. He had been under the impression that Natalie and the children would have


    returned from paying Keh a visit long before Samuel did. To his chagrin, there was still no sign of


    them at eight in the evening when Samuel returned and started asking him about their whereabouts.


    “It was the children, sir. They insisted on seeing your grandfather.”


    “What happened next?” Samuel asked sharply.


    “Ms. Natalie personally drove them to his house.” Gavin’s voice softened fearfully.


    “Why did she have to drive?” Samuel’s cast a cold gaze at the butler. “Where was our chauffeur?”
