Chapter 460 It’s Not Like That!

Every time the topic resurfaced, it felt like tearing open an old wound.

It was raw and painful!

"Nat," Cedric began.

What should he say? What could he possibly say at this moment? That his words were merely outbursts?

Though he spoke in anger, he never truly intended for Isabella to have Natalie's eyes.

"You never believed in me, so why ask?" Natalie's voice was tinged with bitterness.

"I just wanted to-"

"Why bother putting on such an act?!" she interrupted.

Stunned, Cedric could only wonder...

Was this the image he held in Natalie's heart now?

"Whether you believe me or not, I never truly intended-"

"Regardless of your intentions, everything went to Isabella back then. As for me, I was blind and trapped. I couldn't even escape the fire."

Did it hurt?

Confronted with these painful memories, Cedric felt as though his heart was being crushed. The pain was overwhelming and despairing.

At that moment, he even wished that the one who perished in the fire was him instead.
