There had been frequent news about Robert Entes in Simeria, but nothing solid had been confirmed.If something were to happen suddenly, that document... was the most important thing!Cedric stood rooted to the spot. At that moment, he trembled as if he were trying hard to restrain something. Then he said firmly, "Keep an eye on things!"Lucas remained silent.At these words, his heart sank. He could see it! This time, regardless of what was happening around him, Cedric was determined to stand by Natalie's side. This was his...!Once, Cedric had been absent throughout the important moments in Natalie's life. Now, no matter what happened, he would prioritize Natalie!-Meanwhile, the weather was constantly changing in Yuloria."Cough, cough...!" Natalie coughed incessantly. Her nose was blocked, and she looked quite feeble.Lydia and Xyla were extremely worried."The air here is good, but the climate is too harsh," Lydia said with concern.Natalie couldn't afford t
It had only been one night since Cedric left.Natalie did have trouble sleeping last night. It felt cold enough that she asked Lydia to add another blanket for her.Despite that, she still felt cold.It was as if the cold was emanating from the very marrow of her bones. As a result, she woke up this morning feeling particularly uncomfortable.Needles and intravenous drips...!In the past, these were Natalie's biggest fears!Every time Cedric brought her to the hospital, she would resist and make a fuss. But now...! "Don't be afraid," Irwin whispered softly by her side, but Natalie didn't feel anything.She felt numb.It was as if, after knowing Blair existed, Natalie had become a completely strong and independent woman!She had abandoned everything she used to depend on.Irwin sensed the distance emanating from her.As Natalie lay in the hospital, Irwin held out a cup and said, "Have some water."He inserted a straw into the cup and held it up to Natalie's lips, but Nat
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Edward's eyes!"I don't care which of you is her ex-husband or current husband! If you value her so much, why did you let her eyes suffer so much damage in the first place?!"The eyes were the windows to a person's soul. They were something that couldn't be separated from a person.However, Natalie's eyes had suffered such a significant blow.Not only that, but she was also Stephen's daughter."What will happen to her after three months?" Irwin asked again.His tone was tense at this moment, and he clearly didn't want to talk much."If there's no improvement after three months, then..."Edward paused at this point. When he looked at Irwin, it seemed as if his gaze turned deeper.Edward continued, "There's probably no hope for her to recover her sight."Irwin was silent.No hope?!When Irwin heard these two words, his mind went blank.It was as if something was about to explode in his mind...!No hope?!How terrifying would that outc
Irwin and Cedric sat in a cafe across from the hospital. He gave Cedric a meaningful look as his lips curled up into a smirk."I didn't expect to see you here now."It didn't take a genius to figure out what the situation in Wexofrd was like right now.Cedric was silent, and his already cold gaze grew even more dangerous as he looked at Irwin."If my prediction is right, Robert won't make it through the end of this month," Irwin said.His tone was confident, suggesting that he spoke the truth.Cedric remained silent.Robert wouldn't make it through the end of this month?It was obvious what the state of the Entes family was like at this moment.Before Cedric could speak, Irwin continued, "And so far, Robert hasn't made any mention of his will."So, any mishaps now would result in terrifying consequences! It was a crucial period in Wexford now.If something happened to Robert at this critical juncture, that half of the document would be pivotal.Cedric frowned and looked a
Was Irwin really willing to let go of everything for Natalie's sake?!He actually...!"You..." Cedric began, but Irwin cut him off."You've hurt her enough. She will never forgive you," Not in this lifetime nor the next.Irwin had seen this with his own eyes. So, in his opinion, Cedric being here now served no purpose.And what about Irwin?Ironically, a man who was indifferent and manipulated everyone like puppets found himself entangled in this situation.Upon learning that Natalie might never regain her sight, Irwin's emotions were in turmoil as he made his way back to the hospital.His mind was filled with many thoughts. It all boiled down to the relationship between Natalie and Cedric reaching such a point.Cedric's own indecisiveness was one aspect, and Irwin's schemes... were naturally another.If it weren't for his manipulations, Natalie and Cedric wouldn't have ended up like this. If it weren't for that disastrous fire at the detention center, this wouldn't have
Blair!This name was one they had avoided mentioning for many years because that memory was as vivid as if it had happened yesterday.If Natalie hadn't completely unearthed it this time, Cedric and Irwin might never have faced it head-on in their lifetimes."Irwin, you're truly pitiful!" Cedric said as he looked at Irwin.Blair...! Did Cedric fall for Blair from the beginning? No, it wasn't like that. He couldn't pinpoint when it happened, but it was already too late by the time he wanted to take Blair away."I don't know if it's pitiful or not, and I don't care. I just want to know... do you want it or not?" He was referring to Wexford! Cedric chuckled ironically at Irwin's words.Cedric said, "You've schemed for a lifetime, and now you don't want it?"Yes!Irwin's schemes against him had always been about Wexford. First Blair, and then Natalie! The depth of Irwin's thoughts was not something anyone could easily see. It was the same even for Cedric, who grew up wit
Those two...!Upon returning to the courtyard, Natalie listened to the comforting sound of the dripping rain on the roof, even though she wasn't quite used to the local climate."I made you some soup this afternoon," Lydia said. Natalie had been in the hospital for the past week, and she had a cold. Due to that, she hadn't gotten the extra nourishment from the food Lydia and Xyla usually prepared for her.Now that she was better, she needed to replenish her body properly."Okay," Natalie nodded.Leaning close to Natalie's ear, Lydia whispered, "Miss, I overheard Mr. Johnson on the phone just now. He mentioned something about Frederick!"Natalie fell silent.Frederick?!She had always suspected that Frederick was in Cedric's hands. And now...? Natalie replied, "Okay. I got it."Now that Natalie couldn't see, she naturally thought more than others. During these days without proper meals, she had been pondering a question—the issue of Frederick.Undoubtedly...! Even thou
Indeed! In the beginning, he didn't know the child was his. So, when he took Luna away, he...!He didn't have the right to do anything to Luna, even if she wasn't his. After all, Natalie had gone through so much to give birth to Luna.Those few days were a nightmare for Luna and Natalie...!Even now, Natalie could still remember how she frantically searched from one hospital to another like a mad woman. She had been constantly worried that something might happen to Luna. It was such a heart-wrenching feeling for a mother! Natalie could still vividly recall every moment."You knew about it later, but you still planned to use her to save Kayla!" So, this kind of reasoning simply didn't hold up with him. In the end, he knew everything! He knew it all. That was the most unforgivable action he had done in Natalie's eyes.At that time, when it was clear that Luna was his, he still did such things. How could Natalie forgive him for that?"Luna was crying and refused to e
