A Cue For Love Chapter 1052
Chapter 1052 The Same Moon
After showering, Natalie changed into clean nightwear andy down on the bed. She then took an extra
pillow and hugged it tightly before breathing in the scent of the pillow.
It had been almost a week since Samuel left. She missed him. She yearned for him even more after
the startling episode on the rooftop earlier.
The man had risked his life to get the best treatment for his wife. In fact, he had been repeating his
wish to save her even when he was on his deathbed.
Perhaps she would take the same path Barnaby had taken if that happened to her and Samuel. Mount
Draghide was a remote ce with barely anymunication devices.
Natalie turned in the bed to look out the window at the bright moon. I wonder how Samuel’s doing
now. Meanwhile, on top of Mount Draghide, Malcolm sighed as he watched Samuel, who was biting on
a wooden stick.
Although Jorden said he was rather confident in getting rid of the poison in Samuel, Malcolm could not
help but feel that the process of ridding the poison was simply excruciating.
Per Jorden’s words, the process would be akin to a rebirth—it was a trip to the grim reaper’s house.
Moreover, it had been six hours. In other words, Malcolm’s dear disciple had been on the verge of
death for six hours.
Malcolm could only watch Samuel helplessly as his heart ached, for any medicine he could give to
alleviate the pain might interfere with the antidote Jorden had developed.
He left silently.
Samuel continued to stay in the dark room, but his eyes were fixed on the bright moon outside the
window.
He silently told the moon about his longing for Natalie.
He had promised her to return safely no matter what.
Even if he had to go through the pain akin to getting skinned alive or melted alive, he was still going to
endure it and get all the poison out of his system.
“Nat…” Samuel called out hoarsely.
Although the two were separate, their minds were preupied with thoughts of each other that night.
Both passed through the long night with their yearnings for one another.
The next day, the news of the robbery spread like wildfire.
When Bastien saw the article, he furrowed his brows and asked Joseph, “What happened afterward?”
Joseph reported, “There were a total of five robbers. Three were shot dead at the scene, and two were
brought back for interrogation to find out if there was someone else behind it. It’s mostly to find out if
King is involved.”
Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
“Was there a hostage?”
“Yes. Apparently, the first hostage was a pregnant woman, but a young woman negotiated with the
robber and swapped ces with the pregnant woman. She was then brought to the rooftop. But
everything was smoothter on. Major General Sutton led a team of special forces from his troops and
sessfully rescued the hostage.”
Bastien nodded andmented, “As expected of a descendant of General Sutton. The major-general
is like his father. Still, this young woman who volunteered to swap ces with the initial hostage is
smart and brave. She deserves an award.”
“Indeed,” Joseph agreed with a nod.
“Joseph, make a call and ask about the young woman. I’d like tomend her with an award.”
“Okay.”
Joseph then made a call right there and then and asked some questions to the person on the other end
of the line.
After ending the call, Joseph shook his head regretfully. “Prince Jonathan, that young woman did not
leave her name behind, but someone took a photo of her back then.”
“A photo?” Bastien’s eyes lit up. “Get the photo from them. I’d like to see what the brave woman looks
like.”
“Understood.”
Shortly after, Joseph retrieved the photo from the soldiers.
Joseph did not look closely at the photo before handing it to Bastien. “Prince Jonathan, this is the
young woman’s picture.”
The robber’s expression was a bloodthirsty one as he held the young woman hostage. Unlike him, she
had a calm look despite her status as the hostage. Her hair was a little messy, but anyone who saw her
would still say she was a beautiful woman.
The moment Bastien saw the photo, his heart skipped a beat.
“It’s her?” he eximed.
