After Wanda left, Christina didn't know how she returned to her cell. She felt a bit dazed, her mind overwhelmed by everything that happened at Scarlet Villa. She had gone mad with jealousy, a jealousy she never thought she would feel towards a dead person. But she was jealous."Hehe, I lost!" She mocked herself, laughing until tears streamed down her face. No wonder nobody bothered to check on her during this time; they were all busy with their own priorities.Rebecca's love was always selfish. Even though she adopted her, she never held Christina in high regard. Her kindness was only because Christina looked good and had some uses.Now that Christina was locked up and couldn't be of any use, she had undoubtedly become infamous outside. To Rebecca, Christina was useless now.As for Cedric... She had pinned all her hopes on him. But now, he had shattered all those hopes.She had truly lost.During the next interrogation, Christina said, "I want to see Isabella." Finally, sh
Isabella fumbled her way out from inside. As soon as she reached the outside, she was picked up by someone, arranged by Cedric to be by her side, but also... not!Lily carefully helped Isabella into the car and whispered in her ear, "Sir just called. He wants to see you." Upon hearing this, Isabella tensed and turned paled.The inner fear surged to the top of her head, causing her to shiver uncontrollably. "Where is he?" Isabella asked, her tone icy.Lily glanced at her and said, "Sunset Racecourse." Isabella's already pale face turned even whiter, and her breath became slightly constricted. "Cedric is in Verde City now. Is it convenient?"Undoubtedly, she did not want to see that person. Lily's complexion changed, and a sinister hint flashed in her eyes. Isabella sensed it and, before Lily could speak, said, "Let's go."-Cedric had gone mad. In Rebecca's eyes, he was a complete lunatic. She suppressed the news of him living with the urn at Scarlet Villa. Howev
Even as things reached a critical moment, Christina still stubbornly held onto Isabella. She did it even knowing that admitting it would bring the heaviest consequences. She was determined to drag Isabella down with her.However, what disappointed Christina was that no matter what she did or how hysterically she demanded to see Cedric, she was disappointed in the end. During this time, Wanda attempted to take the blame for her, but all attempts failed. Christina would face the punishment she deserved for all her wrongdoings.However, even after all her crimes were exposed, Cedric still didn't appear before her. She was at her wit's end. Before going to prison, Wanda came to see her. Christina asked Wanda to pass a message to Cedric, warning him to be cautious of Isabella. Wanda cried as she said, "Even now, you still care about the master, but his heart has always been on that dead person.""Wanda, don't say such things in the future."Christina's tone was unusually indif
All the accusations against Natalie were completely cleared. The truth was revealed, and now it was the final step before reaching Cedric. Once it was confirmed, there would be major consequences for Cedric. As Rebecca had said, this was his last chance to leave."Sir, please leave now!" Lucas finally changed the topic.This was Cedric's last opportunity to leave. He could be free from the troubles as long as he left Verde City. Even if Cedric disappeared from this world, it would be acceptable.Having followed Cedric for so many years, Lucas naturally didn't want to see Cedric fall into such despair. Cedric was the pride of Verde City and once the most outstanding youth in the city. How could he easily fall like this?But when Lucas mentioned leaving, Cedric calmly glanced at the urn on the desk. In his eyes, there was a keen sense of sorrow.Undoubtedly, at this moment, Cedric thought of Natalie's final struggle. Even in the end, she fought to overturn everything. Sh
During this time, Verde City was abuzz with discussions surrounding the Johnson family.And today, a major event took place. The Johnson family's son was arrested. It was said that he was the mastermind behind the construction incident in the eastern suburbs, which resulted in loss of life. His motive was believed to be revenge against his ex-wife, Natalie. With Natalie's death, he couldn't escape legal consequences!Despite the speculations and anticipated outcomes in the public eye, the moment it happened was still shocking.Elizabeth was hospitalized after this heavy blow, and all company responsibilities fell on Rebecca's shoulders. The entire Verde City and the Johnson family fell into chaos.-Meanwhile, Natalie sat on the bed in Red Wine Estate. A nurse was changing her bandages. Jason didn't come to treat her today. Natalie sweated profusely from the pain, and her forehead creased."Does it hurt?" The nurse asked, looking at Natalie, who had already bitten down
Natalie fell into silence. Clearly, while the outcome was shocking, it was also the best result. So what if Stephen had intervened in this matter? It wasn't a misunderstanding about Christina; she indeed committed those acts. Since it was her doing, it was only fitting for her to bear the consequences.However, for Cedric to also face such a situation...!"Did you also intervene in Cedric's case?" Natalie asked in a tone that revealed no emotion.Stephen shook his head. "No."Natalie looked up at Stephen, once again shocked. Her uncle didn't intervene? Yet, Cedric easily ended up in this situation?! That... didn't quite add up!Seeing Natalie's confusion, Stephen explained, "After returning from Simeria, he instructed everyone not to hinder Dylan and Zane's investigation.""He also came to Simeria?"This information shocked Natalie even more. Clearly, this was the last thing she expected to hear.Why did he come?Since returning to Simeria, she had either been in a s
Time flew by like a swift shuttle. A massive fire had altered the lives of all those involved. Two years later, the world's top-tier commercial speech event in Simeria dazzled everyone...Lucas hurriedly entered Verde City Prison to see Cedric. Two years had transformed the man into someone cold and steady."What's the matter?" Cedric asked with an icy tone upon seeing Lucas.It had been two years.Since the day Rebecca left, Cedric hadn't met anyone else apart from those from the company. In the meantime, Rebecca had tried numerous times to reach out, but Cedric rejected every attempt. He even turned away calls from Simeria.Lucas had visited countless times during this period, but his serious expression now was a first. Cedric thought something might be wrong with the company."It's not about the company," Lucas said as she shook his head.Cedric frowned, "Then what?"Lucas looked at him with complex emotions in his eyes. Obviously, the unexpected news had left everyo
In a towering office building in Simeria, Natalie's petite figure remained unchanged. There was now a sharpness and weariness of life's twists and turns present on her delicate cheeks.She emerged from the elevator in professional attire with a pair of glasses on her face,, and she presented a composed and capable demeanor. Accompanied by several assistants, she walked and gave instructions to Karina, who led the group.Karina took note of everything as they walked.One of the secretaries approached Natalie respectfully, "Ms. Walker, Mr. Frazier is here. He's been waiting for a while and didn't want to disturb you with a phone call."Upon hearing that Irwin was here, Natalie's usually strict work attitude instantly softened, and a smile spread on her lips.Snap! She closed a folder and handed it to Karina, saying, "Go to the meeting room first.""Yes, Ms. Walker." Karina took the folder and left.Natalie strode toward her office, and her assistants returned to their respecti
