At Peach Garden, it took Cedric quite a while to recover from his momentary daze. He must have lost his mind earlier to have said those things to Natalie...!Back then, he and Natalie had been together for seven years, and she still didn't know his true identity. She only knew about it when Rebecca had come knocking on their door...!So, how could he have implied that she had gotten together with him for money?"Madam, you're back." Cedric heard the butler's respectful voice from outside and snapped out of his thoughts.With clear anger in her voice, Natalie retorted, "You need to change how you address me, or I'll ensure you're out of a job immediately."Her tone was arrogant and domineering, but Cedric couldn't help but smile with indulgence.If she had a sliver of her current temper in her previous life, those who had bullied her then would have paid the price.Unfortunately...She had been so gentle and obedient back then.Until the very end, when she lost her sight, h
When Natalie arrived at the company, the first thing she did was call Wendy into her office.At this moment, Natalie was standing by the French windows. The air around her was cold, and Wendy had never seen Natalie like this before. Wendy tensed up when Natalie turned to look at her!"Wendy.""Yes, ma'am!""Help me arrange a meeting with the sixth lord!"The sixth lord was the Entes family's sixth son, Malcolm Entes.In Simeria, people referred to him as the sixth lord. Malcolm held a more significant position than the other members of the Entes family because of the things he controlled, which no one else could match. Even Stephen would show him great respect when meeting him.It was also why Stephen was relieved and worried when Natalie secured a collaboration with Malcolm.He was relieved because she independently completed such a significant project collaboration. But he worried because Malcolm was not an easy person to deal with.Those who knew Malcolm only had one wa
Irwin glanced at her with a serious glint in his eyes.Taking her small hand again, he gently rubbed her icy fingertips. "Before Leon investigated Bianca, all traces of her work were erased.""You knew about that too?""Nat...!""Irv, I told you, right?""What?""Withdraw the people you have around me!" Natalie felt very uncomfortable with such comprehensive monitoring. Even though she knew Irwin had no malicious intent, she disliked it. At this moment, she even expressed strong resistance.Irwin looked at her. In his eyes, there was a habitual indulgence. However, this kind of indulgence was so profound that it was impenetrable.Natalie didn't like this feeling at all.Irwin said, "I'm not at ease when he's around!" Irwin was referring to Cedric!Without waiting for Natalie to speak, Irwin continued, "Do you remember how bad the rain was that day when you drove? Didn't you ever wonder why you were fine? Did you think it was a coincidence?""You..." Natalie looked
Cedric stood at the office door, his gaze fixed on the scene inside. His eyes were narrowed, and anger burned throughout his body.His chest heaved continuously as he hissed through gritted teeth, "Natalie!"At the sound of her name, Natalie snapped back to reality, instinctively distancing herself from Irwin.Irwin turned to look at Cedric with a fleeting hint of provocation in his deep gaze.Cedric's already enraged eyes now glowed a burning crimson."Irv, you should go back for now," Natalie said as she stood up. She could already feel a headache coming on.Didn't Cedric go to Isabella?Wait... why did she suddenly feel like she had done something wrong?Damn it!Irwin didn't make things difficult for Natalie. He stood up and glanced at her before touching her soft hair.In a doting tone, he said, "I'll consider your request from earlier. Think about what you can offer me in return."Natalie's chest tightened.Irwin wanted something in return, and... they both knew exact
Cedric looked at Natalie, and she also stared back at him. They stared intensely at each other, and their hearts tightened rapidly...!"Nat, I... That day, actually...""What? If I had told you, would you have driven yourself?"Cedric was rendered speechless. In a situation where she remained silent and faced potential emergencies, Irwin could still help her avoid all dangers.And Cedric?She had been right there in front of him.He had considered himself the most important person in her life. But in the end...!"I'm sorry."Natalie was silent.Cedric was apologizing?!What a miracle!Cedric had never apologized to anyone, yet he was doing so right now! To her!It was more than a miracle!"I accept your apology." She said it casually, but Cedric knew this ease was because she didn't mean it.The two of them faced each other in silence. Cedric tightened his grip on her. He couldn't conceal the pain in his eyes, and Natalie frowned at him."Was that also wrong?""Yo
Rebecca finally came to her senses and was completely enlightened!That was why she compromised with the situation and wanted to clear all obstacles in Cedric and Natalie's relationship. The first and foremost obstacle was Isabella, which was the cause of the biggest gap between them."Isabella, if you truly love him, let him go, okay?" Rebecca said seriously. She even added, "As long as you leave him, I'm willing to fulfill all your wishes. Also... I've found the best doctors for your eyes and confirmed that they can help you regain your sight."Isabella was speechless.She could regain her sight?!Rebecca's words caught Isabella off guard, and she stiffened."I can... regain my sight?" Isabella asked."Yes."Regaining her sight? It was such a tempting offer...!No one knew how Isabella had survived these years in the darkness. Every time she moved to a new place, she had to adapt to her surroundings diligently. Up until now, she hadn't figured out the layout and orientat
How could it be?How did things turn out like this?For years, Isabella had been retaliating against Natalie like a madwoman. Every time, the image of Isabella's own mother before she passed away fueled her insanity. Like a lunatic, Isabella wished to tear Natalie and Natalie's mother to shreds!Yet now, Rebecca said that in the midst of that bitter battle, the last one to leave the world was... Isabella's own mother. That was the true reality!Her world was in chaos.If it were just Rebecca saying this, Isabella probably wouldn't believe it. However, she could clearly also recall Ivan's words.How could this be?Why did things turn out this way?!"What's going on? Do you know how important Madam Rebecca is to us?!""Get out! Just get out!"Isabella's hysterical roar made it seem like nothing else mattered at this moment. Her mind was blank. All reason was thrown into chaos by the truth brought by Rebecca."Why... Why? Why...?!" Isabella dared not think that all of thi
Since everyone concealed the information about Bianca being in Malcolm's hands, it didn't matter what the connection between them was!Bianca was undoubtedly in a bad situation right now!That was the awareness implanted in Natalie's mind."I'll deal with you when I get back!" Stephen was furious! Natalie didn't know how much trouble she had caused!Natalie felt aggrieved. Over the past two years, people around her had been constantly searching for Bianca. She thought Irwin's and Stephen's people were all helping her find Bianca. However, in the end, she discovered that everyone knew except her. Now, she even doubted whether Stephen and Irwin's people were secretly assisting Malcolm in concealing the truth from her.Natalie probably realized that she had caused a big disaster with how angry Stephen was. Usually, she would give in. But now..."Uncle, rest assured. I'll clean up the mess I made on my own.""And how are you going to do that?""I've signed a new project t
