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
Rough fingertips gently traced her delicate face, and the man's tone was cold and dangerous. "Are you still insisting that the child isn't mine?"Natalie was silent.What did he mean?She looked at Cedric with narrowed eyes. The man chuckled lightly before retaliating with a bruising kiss. It felt as if he was trying to devour her."The child was never yours," Natalie said as she turned her head to avoid the man's kiss.But the next moment, the man firmly held her small face.The kiss was intrusive, domineering, and overbearing.Natalie struggled with all her might.But she was petite.She didn't have the power to resist him!Just when Natalie felt like she was about to suffocate, Cedric finally let her go."You went to see Irwin before leaving Meridiania, didn't you?"Natalie didn't answer.Since she was unable to break free, she stopped struggling and chose to ignore him."I told you, Irwin is not a good person!" Cedric said."And? Are you saying you're a good person
Upon hearing this, Heather had a gloomy expression."Cedric...!" The anger was about to ignite Heather.Natalie's chest continued to rise and fall heavily.Although Heather was dissatisfied with Cedric, she refrained from saying much at this moment. She knew that the more Natalie heard, the more uncomfortable she would feel. In the end, she swallowed all her discontent."Don't be like this. You'll scare Luna. I'll figure something out." After trying hard to think of something to say, Heather finally settled on saying that.Natalie looked at Heather. Before she could speak, Heather said, "Didn't you think about it before? Sooner or later, he was going to find out.""...""Even if he knows, what does it matter? He has no right to take the child away!""Yeah, he has no right!" When Heather said this, Natalie felt a little relieved. But deep down, her heart was still bleeding in pain.Natalie was well aware of what kind of person Cedric was.Once he knew about the child,
Heather choked a little and trailed off.Looking into Natalie's eyes, a pang of pain crossed her gaze. Even her breathing became heavier, indicating that this matter was unbearable for her even to recall.It was evident that two years ago when Heather learned the truth, she had to endure the pain in her heart to face Natalie.Natalie gave her a comforting hug.In fact, even if Heather didn't continue, Natalie probably knew what the older woman was trying to say.Winona was not Heather's daughter.For the past two years, Natalie had doubted more than once. Despite Winona's flightiness, Stephen and Heather had always been tolerant and indulgent. Why would they suddenly decide not to want her?Two years had passed.During these two years, all Natalie saw was Heather and Stephen's indifferent attitude towards Winona.It was also two years ago when Stephen's health began to deteriorate."Aunt!" At this moment, Natalie wanted to comfort Heather, but she didn't know how to do it.
Everything was too sudden. Only after listening to Heather did Natalie learn why the older woman suddenly revealed all this information to her. It turned out that her twin had been found!Two years! After enduring torment and suffering for two years, they had finally found him. Heather was overjoyed!"Nat.""Let's go back." Natalie thought for a moment and spoke. At this moment, Heather should be eager to return home.Heather nodded. "Yes, let's."She quickly instructed someone to pack their things. However, when she looked at Natalie, her eyes flickered with worry. "Why don't you come back with me?"Since Cedric had already found out about the child, there was no longer a need to hide in Snow City.Natalie furrowed her eyebrows slightly and nodded.-On the plane, Heather held Luna in her arms, her eyes full of love. Natalie now understood why Heather had shown such excessive favoritism—it was because Luna was her actual granddaughter. In the past two years, Heathe
