Chapter 125

Chapter 125 You Shouldn’t Hate Her

Cedric was furious.

Natalie hadn’t said anything about it during this period, which made him commit such a foolish act for

the

first time in his life!

“You bastard!” Natalie cursed as she tried to resist his advances.

However, it was futile.

Cedric acted like a madman. Like a beast, he exuded a dangerous aura that was slowly engulfing her.

After a long while, the storm subsided!

Cedric looked up. He studied her rosy lips as he traced them with a slender finger.

Natalie suddenly bit down!

“Ow. I”

Click!

The sound of a camera shutter echoed through the air.

Natalie was stunned, and she saw Cedric holding a phone in his other hand.

She tensed!

Instinctively, she released the man’s finger, which now had obvious bite marks. Then, she reached out

to

grab his phone.

“What are you doing?”

“What do you think?” Cedric replied.

“Cedric!”

“You cunning little fox. You caused so much trouble for me. Since that’s the case, I have to gain

something back, right?”

He grinned at her frustrated expression.

Cedric felt a burst of satisfaction. He had never known Natalle was so crafty. She was a born actress

who

could improvise at any moment.

uch pain was Isabells enduring in the hospital?

It was all because of Natalie.

Natalie’s face turned red with anger. The hesitation she showed a moment ago transformed into pure

fury.

She raised her hand, intending to deliver a slap.

But Cedric swiftly caught her hand.

And then he planted a kiss on it.

As his lips touched the back of her hand, Natalie trembled with anger.

She had seen many shameless acts, but never anything this shameless!

Until now, Natalie still couldn’t figure out why Cedric was angry today.

To go as far as…!

Knowing that she was in such a helpless state, she felt an overwhelming sense of frustration.

Then, Cedric asked hoarsely, “Why didn’t you explain?”

“Explain what?”

“Your relationship with Stephen!”

Natalie was silent.

At his words, her heart sank.

She finally realized what Cedric had been asking and playing at earlier.

He had discovered her relationship with her uncle!

“Hah… Explain?” Natalie sneered at his words.

Sure, there hadn’t been any explanation between them. But what did it matter?!

Regardless of what she said, didn’t he still look at her with suspicion in his eyes?

She stood up and straightened her clothes, refusing to look at him.

Studying her indifferent attitude, Cedric remarked, “Seems like you’re not suited to stay outside for too

Jong, Nat!”

Natalie looked at him and calmly asked, “What do you want?”

She was tensed. Every time Cedric smiled like that, something was bound to happen next.

Although she wasn’t afraid of him right now, the things this man would do… were overwhelming and

difficult to guard against.

“At least you still remember what it’s like to fear me!” Cedric said as he looked at her, the smile on his

face widening.

Ignoring his gaze, Natalie turned away. The cold wind teased her long hair.

“Can I have a cigarette?”

Cedric was silent.

He paused momentarily, but then pulled out one of the remaining two cigarettes and handed it to

Natalie.

When she placed it in her mouth, Cedric lit it for her.

Thanks.”

Natalie smiled at him!

The smile was so unfamiliar, and it created a strong sense of distance between them.

Cedric watched her smoke with disapproval. When she exhaled the smoke, it was evident to an

experienced eye that this wasn’t her first time.

She had developed a smoking habit!

After smoking half of it, Cedric could no longer restrain himself and asked, “Back then, did you really

want

to break free from me?”

Thinking about her previous hysterical desire for a divorce and the troubles it caused, Cedric’s

expression

grew even darker.

Natalie didn’t directly answer his question.

Instead, she took a deep drag of her cigarette and said, “Do you think Isabella is the only issue

between

us?”

“Things between Isabella and I aren’t what you think,” Cedric said, his gaze fixed on her side profile.

To Cedric, the main catalyst for their divorce had always been Isabella.

However, he suddenly recalled that in the Johnson family, people had never treated her well since she

married him!

The reason for their mistreatment was the fact that she was an orphan.

Natalie looked up at the sky. Then, she exhaled the smoke from her mouth and continued, “There are

too many things between us. I can’t even begin to list them.”

“That also includes everything from our past life.”

There were so many things to the point she couldn’t even count them herself. Natalie’s words carried a

hint of bitterness, but they were also the truth.

Cedric’s pupils widened upon hearing this. There was a vague voice in his heart at this moment,

something he wanted to understand but remained out of his reach.

He pressed his lips tightly together as he continued to stare at her!

Just as he was about to say something, Natalie’s phone rang. When she took out her phone, Cedric’s

eyes.

flickered with a trace of realization.

She had Stephen listed in her phone as “Uncle“. It was so open and transparent!

He hadn’t noticed it before.

It turned out that all he had to do was look at her phone if he wanted to know what their relationship

was!

It was just that simple!

“Uncle.”

Her tone when she spoke was no longer arrogant and unrestrained; her whole body softened, just like

it

used to when she was with him.

Every time they met, her aura was gentle, making it irresistible to pull her into an embrace.

But this current tenderness didn’t belong to him anymore.

On the other end of the line,

Okay, I’ll send my locationephen probably said he would send a car to pick her up as Natalie replied,”

After saying that, she hung up.

Cedric stared at her.

And only continued to do so!

Natalie throw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it.

there anything else you want to talk about?”

Hmm?

“If not, you can go ahead. My uncle is sending a car to pick me up.”

Since he already knew, Natalie had nothing to hide,

She said the words so naturally.

She was probably in a good mood today. It was also the first time they had a calm interaction in a long

time!

Cedric looked at her and contemplated. Then, he said, “I hope you can do something for her.”

“What is it?”

“Clarify things on her side.”

Clarify things for Isabella?!

When Isabella was mentioned, Natalie’s temper would flare up without warning. She lost her original

calm

demeanor, and there was now a hint of mockery in her eyes.

Before she could speak, Cedric hurriedly said, “You know about her current state. She doesn’t have the

energy to deal with your tricks!”

Natalie was silent.

“I know you hate me. Let’s talk about us after her surgery.”

Yuvan mentioned that Isabella had been receiving threatening phone calls frequently. The calls were

filled with arrogant insults and curses, which caused significant distress to Isabella,

Unable to handle the situation, they temporarily took away her phone.

Cedric already had a headache with everything on his plate and had no time to deal with Natalie’s

jealousy.

He just wanted to quickly settle Isabella’s situation.

Natalie looked at him and laughed again!

“Hah… My tricks?!”

should I clarify things? Should I admit that I was the one in the wrong? That I was wrong all

would have been better if Cedric hadn’t mentioned that woman.

Now that he had, Natalie’s mood had turned sour.

Especially after learning about Isabella’s background–that she sought revenge!

Between the two of them, whose mother was the real victim?

Between Isabella and Natalie, who was the one who suffered the most?!

Isabella’s intense retaliatory measures had destroyed Natalie’s marriage!
