A Cue for Love (Natalie and Samuel)

Chapter 1095 Inexplicable

Meanwhile, Varre had locked himself inside the meditation room of the monastery to carve the jade key.

Nereus arranged for Natalie and Anna to occupy a long-uninhabited room inside the monastery.

Nereus was a shy teenager, around seventeen or eighteen years old. He even flushed self-consciously when Natalie and Anna sized him up. However, his eyes drifted toward Anna from time to time.

Natalie perceptively sensed he had something to say to Anna, and she also had a good guess about the message he wanted to convey.

Although Natalie couldn’t tell Anna about the jade key’s secret, she reckoned the latter should still be informed of Varre’s illness.

Hence, Natalie excused herself, leaving Anna and Nereus alone inside the courtyard.

Nereus hesitated for a long while before ultimately bracing himself and speaking, seemingly having figured out what to say. “I shall not address you as a fellow worshipper since you’re not an ordinary follower of our religion who comes here to pay your respect. May I call you Anna as the other lady does?”

Anna nodded.
