When Natalie arrived at the office, Wendy approached with a massive stack of documents. As Natalie gazed at the mountain-like pile of files, it reminded her that it was the beginning of the month when an endless stream of documents needed handling."Wendy.""Yes, Ms. Walker!""Book a flight for me three days from now to Snow City, secretly," Natalie instructed. The image of Cedric appearing at the school gate with Kayla flashed in her mind. It made her realize that this unpredictable man might not leave Simeria anytime soon. Not only that, but he also planned to enroll Kayla in school here. With this situation, Natalie naturally couldn't allow her child to return to Simeria.When Natalie had told Cedric there wasn't any child between them, he still insisted on pestering her. So, if he found out about the child, Natalie's peace would undoubtedly be disrupted even more!"Yes, ma'am!" Wendy nodded, a bit sympathetic toward Natalie. Natalie would surely be working late for the
In the next three days, Natalie was almost constantly busy with work. Miraculously, Heather's daily angry calls to curse Cedric for half an hour had ceased.Natalie didn't think too much about it. After all, she was too busy!During these three days, apart from work, she had a lot of free time since Cedric and Kayla hadn't appeared in front of her.Tomorrow, she was going to Snow City.After finishing work, Natalie had Julian take her to a shopping mall that belonged to Regal Horizons International. She went directly to the baby products section."Miss, please put on your glasses," Julian said as he handed Natalie her specially made glasses."Hmm," Natalie agreed absent-mindedly.The lights in the mall were too bright, and Natalie couldn't stay in such places for a long time. Usually, she rarely came here. She was only here because she was going to Snow City tomorrow and wanted to buy her child some things.Natalie's gaze was suddenly drawn when she walked by a high-end c
Seeing Natalie buying so many infant supplies, especially when her complexion wasn't great, Lydia probably knew something had happened."Miss, Madam has prepared a tonic for you. Drink it quickly."Natalie nodded. Anything arranged by Heather was accepted without refusal. At this moment, Natalie also realized that she hadn't eaten anything the entire day due to Cedric upsetting her, but she didn't feel hungry now. She felt like exploding.At this moment, she really wanted to propose to Stephen that she should really be expelled from the family. She genuinely wanted to leave Regal Horizons. Cedric was in Simeria, and she knew she would continue to bump into him if she didn't leave. This would undoubtedly cause her heartache every day."Are these all for the young miss?" Lydia asked as she glanced at the items.Natalie nodded, "Yes. When Julian comes later, pack up what he brings too. I'll take them with me tomorrow.""Understood." Lydia nodded, already accustomed to it becau
Heather watched as Natalie dragged in a large box of items for the child.Her tone was filled with indulgence as she scolded Natalie, "Our little moon is still so small! Why would she wear so many clothes? There are still so many new clothes that she hasn't worn yet!"Although Heather said that, she couldn't help but indulge in buying things for the little princess herself. Luna Walker was over a year old and enjoyed running around all day. Even though she didn't live with Natalie, Heather and Luna still found time for video calls daily. So, Natalie wasn't a stranger to Luna.Luna giggled in Natalie's arms."Aunt, I wish I could give her the best in the world," Natalie said, cuddling the child affectionately. The scent from the child was so pleasant—fragrant and soft. No matter how much Natalie held her, it was never enough.Her words, however, made Heather stiffened.The best in the world...Heather had once loved a child so much. She had poured her love and effort into t
Natalie's heart sank. Eventually, she called Wendy, who informed her that Cedric did indeed go to the office in the morning. She had handled it as usual, saying Natalie had gone on a business trip to Meridiania. Cedric left afterward.Upon hearing this, Natalie's face grew even darker. That man clearly didn't believe Wendy, and he was hiding his true feelings and looking for her now.After hanging up on Wendy, she called Julian. He answered, "Miss!""Quickly find out where Cedric is.""Yes, ma'am."Julian went to investigate, and Natalie remained tensed while waiting for the results.Heather approached with Luna in her arms. "What happened? Why is it necessary to check Cedric's whereabouts now? What kind of trouble has he stirred up?"Heather was most annoyed when it came to checking Cedric's whereabouts. What was going on now? Natalie's eyes, which were filled with worry, were more of a concern to Heather.Natalie glanced at Heather, then at the child in her arms. She
Natalie stood at the door, holding a towel as she stiffly dried her hair. Countless sheep ran through her mind. Why did she feel like she was being checked by her husband while on a business trip? The key question was, what right did he have to do this?"Cedric, could you fucking stop?" Natalie finally exploded when he was about to enter the bathroom. She glared at him fiercely, wishing she could just knock him out. Who did he think he was? What gave him the right to snoop around?However, Cedric seemed oblivious to her words. He pushed open the bathroom door without acknowledging her, and noises echoed from inside. Natalie massaged her throbbing temples. oAfter a while, he emerged."Where is he?" he questioned coldly.Natalie couldn't calm herself. She looked at Cedric angrily and said, "Who do you think you are?"Cedric stayed silent."Who are you to question me? Do you have the right?" Natalie had encountered many shameless people managing Regal Horizons Internat
Inside the room, smoke filled the air. Although Natalie also smoked, she disliked the smell of secondhand smoke. The man smoked several cigarettes in a row, and now the whole room was saturated with that scent. It made Natalie extremely annoyed.His silent demeanor was more tormenting than intense interrogation.Finally breaking the silence, Cedric said, "The child can't be Irwin's!" Natalie stayed silent and raised an eyebrow.She knew Cedric was a sensitive and suspicious person. That was why she never considered letting Cedric know about Luna from the beginning. Once he knew, many complications would follow. As Natalie had sorted things out in her mind along the way, she was well aware that explaining or not explaining this matter was equally problematic. So, she could only say, "I have nothing to say.""If the child is really Irwin's, then your uncle would have sided with him in Wexford, but he didn't!" Cedric had clearly seen the big rift between Stephen and Irwi
Yves led Natalie directly to the door of a room. The door was slightly ajar, and strange sounds emanated from inside.A woman's voice echoed through the room, followed by a man's...!They were obviously doing something intense inside.Natalie's expression changed as she looked at Yves. Yves had a pinched look on his face as he glanced back at Natalie. "Did Mr. Frazier call me here to listen to this?" Natalie sarcastically chuckled."Sis, this must be...!""Hmph!"Before Yves could finish, Natalie turned and walked away.Yves glanced at Natalie's departing figure, then at the door. Anxious, he quickly caught up with Natalie's footsteps.She couldn't drive at night!Before Yves went to pick her up, Irwin emphasized the need to be careful, revealing his care and consideration for Natalie in his words!People around Irwin knew that despite the recent upheaval, Irwin's feelings for Natalie were... It was wrong to take advantage of Natalie before, but Irwin was sometimes unpr
