But soon, she looked at Cedric, finding it somewhat amusing.Before she could speak, Cedric continued, "Withdraw the divorce lawsuit. Once we have a child, they will inherit everything."So, he was in a bad mood this early in the morning because he had received news that she hadn't withdrawn the divorce lawsuit?! And he was proposing such a tempting condition, assuring her that she wouldn't need to worry about other women anymore?Once upon a time, Natalie had found it amusing how high-society marriages were only woven together by a tapestry of money.
