A Cue for Happiness

Chapter 219

Soon, the waitresses served the steaks and the dishes. Watching as Natalie cut the steak up into smaller

pieces, Christopher felt a strange feeling rise within him. “I’ve been suffering from a pulmonary disease

since young. Hence, this is my first time eating steak,” exclaimed Christopher. “Why are you acting all

melodramatic now?” Natalie placed the cut steak onto Christopher’s plate. “Eating steaks isn’t like eating

snakeblood fruits. It’s not a tough thing to do! You can eat many more steaks in the future.” When

Christopher heard that, he felt like there was something tugging at his heartstrings. How can this young

lady resolve all of my worries so easily? It feels like all of my worries have disappeared with her by my

side. “Why are you in a daze? Give it back to me if you don’t want to eat it.” When Natalie saw that

Christopher did not even touch the steak, she figured he was concerned about hygiene issues with

Natalie cutting his steak. Just when she was about to take it back, Christopher stopped her. “Who said

that I’m not eating?” Christopher picked the steak up with the fork and stuffed it into his mouth. “I’m just

waiting for it to cool down.” “Mr. Collins, now that I’ve had a meal with you, you mustn’t break your

promise about giving me the snakeblood fruit.” “Of course.” “Okay!” Natalie munched on the steak

happily, her mood improving significantly. She managed to get a snakeblood fruit in exchange for a meal.

With this, she had more time to search for the dragonblood fruit. Oh, the dragonblood fruit! Where can I

find you? The room was filled with the fragrance of the steak. While Natalie was engrossed with eating

her steak, Christopher couldn’t keep his eyes off her. He thought that she was like a cute kitten—lively

and mischievous, with a short temper. She would appear aloof unless there was something that could

tempt her. His feelings of affection increased as he watched her. When they left the restaurant, the rain

had already stopped with the street lamps lit up. “Accompany me to pick a present for Grandma. After

that, I’ll ask Nicholas to send the snakeblood fruit to the address of your choice,” said Christopher with a

smirk as he shoved a hand into his pocket. “Okay.” Natalie followed Christopher to a high-end shopping

mall in the central business district. Christopher brought her to a luxurious jewelry shop, where all the

sales associates were dressed elegantly. His appearance caused the sales associate to stare at him

dazedly. Just from his looks and demeanor alone, one could tell that he was extremely rich. Yet, when

they glanced at the woman beside him, they immediately noticed that she was wearing unbranded

clothes. More importantly, her face was extremely average-looking—completely different from

Christopher’s dazzling looks. “That woman is really ugly…” “What methods did she use to hook up with

this man?” “Shush! Lower your volume! They might hear you!” “Yeah! But what can we do? She’s like a

toad courting a prince!” When Natalie heard that, she almost rolled her eyes. Although she admitted that

her hyper-realistic mask was quite ugly, their words were simply ridiculous. A toad courting a prince? I

bet that they didn’t do well in literature class. Naturally, Christopher heard those comments too. Staring at

Natalie’s face, he suddenly remembered the gorgeous face that lay underneath that hyper-realistic mask.

A grin spread across his lips. He grabbed Natalie’s arm and pulled her closer to him. “What are you

doing?” “I want you to stand closer to me,” said Christopher. “It’s best if you stay within my sight forever.”
