Chapter 100 Too Ruthless to Outplay
Natalie hadn’t seen Biarica for several days.
After work, she bought groceries and went straight to Bianca’s place. They prepared a feast together.
Before they sat down, Natalie opened a beer and took a big swig from the bottle.
Bianca was shocked!
“I hope you don’t get drunk; it’s hard to take care of you.”
Knowing Natalie’s poor alcohol tolerance, Bianca tried to feed her a piece of beef, hoping she would
eat something before drinking more.
Natalie took a bite, and they exchanged a smile. As they sat down, Bianca enjoyed a piece of chicken.
Both of them were naturally slender, allowing them to indulge in eating and drinking whenever they
were together.
“There’s something on your mind, isn’t there?‘ Bianca remarked while observing Natalie.
Years of friendship allowed Bianca to sense when something was bothering Natalie. Instead of directly
answering, Natalie took another sip of her drink.
Bianca raised an eyebrow.
Well, it seemed like there really was something on Natalie’s mind, and it was something major!
After another sip, Natalie finally spoke, “Isabella is really blind now.”
Bianca almost choked on her food. She glared at Natalie.
Seriously… she couldn’t have picked a better time to drop this bomb?!
The situation with Isabella had caused a stir in Verde City. Everyone knew she pretended to be blind
and disabled to force Cedric and Natalie to divorce.
But now:
“What do you mean by that?”
Although Bianca was quick–witted, at this moment, she still didn’t understand the meaning behind
Natalie’s words.
Did she mean that labelin was really blind now?
After all, the online rumors were considered facts–Isabella bribing doctors, walking freely in the
hospital,
and all those videos.
Could they all be false?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie sighed, “Cedric hasn’t left the hospital yet. You don’t need to think too hard to know that the
situation there is not good.”
“She faked her blindness, and now she’s really blind?! What the hell is this?!” Bianca was genuinely
puzzled.
Both Natalie and Cedric were divorced now, so Isabella’s actions shouldn’t affect them anymore, right?
Natalie had thought the same before this.
She ran her fingers through her hair and took another sip of alcohol. Only the taste of alcohol could
temporarily calm her now.
“I want to know why she hates me so much. Why would she go to such lengths, even blinding herself to
get back at me?”
She wasn’t blind before–it was all part of the deception.
And now, she was truly blind.
Bianca swallowed nervously. “There are no grudges between you two, so she shouldn’t hate you so
much, right? You haven’t done anything to her.”
“Yeah, that’s why it’s even stranger. I really want to know why she hates me so much, to the point she
would blind herself just to get back at me.”
Now, Bianca understood.
Isabella had faked her blindness before, all part of a scheme against Natalle.
But this level of deception, especially when it had nothing to do with Cedric anymore, was indeed
perplexing.
So, what was the reason?
She’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing!”
Blanca couldn’t help but describe Isabella this way after thinking of many other phrases. However, she
became curious
zam did Isabella hate about Natalie?
To hate someone to the extent of self–mutilation?
Natalie nodded, “She’s too ruthless. I can’t outplay her.”
Previously, she had thought about how to fight back. Now, she realized that even a slight retaliation
resulted in Isabella truly harming herself. If she continued fighting back, Isabella might even throw her
life
away.
“She’s too ruthless!”
What kind of hatred was this?
If it wasn’t extreme hatred, why go to such lengths?
Isabella was different from those women outside who admired Cedric. Those women who only wanted
Cedric for themselves would calm down once Natalie and Cedric divorced!
“When did Isabella come to Verde City?”
“Six months ago.”
Six months ago… That was when she appeared, and various rumors about her and Cedric started
circulating.
It was also when Natalie’s world began to crumble.
“Her brother saved Cedric’s life before. I originally assumed that she might hate Cedric because of her
brother’s death and target me. But now, I don’t think so. It’s definitely not that straightforward. There’s
more to Isabella’s background than we know.”
Bianca was shocked. She hadn’t expected such a deep connection. Her eyes were full of concern for
Natalie.
The relationship between her and Cedric is not simple.”
“Yes, it isn’t.”
It was more than that.
Whenever something happened to Isabella, Cedric would immediately take her side and disregard his
wife of ten years.
After tonight, who knows what the situation will turn Into!
Metalle had no idea when the air in Verde City became so suffocating
“Well, why don’t you go abroad? There’s no need to stay in Verde City.” Bianca was now genuinely.
concerned about Natalie.
Isabella hated her to the point of blinding herself just to scheme against Natalie. If things continued like
this, who knew what would happen?
Natalie’s uncle was in Simeria!
If she went back to Simeria, she would be under the protection of her influential uncle, and no one
could
harm her.
Natalie glanced at Bianca. “It’s not that easy.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“True, you’re a career woman now. Even if you want to move abroad, you have to wait until your
current
projects are finished.”
“That’s right.”
If Natalie could, she would love to go abroad right away. The country was really suffocating.
However, sincerity and honesty were everything when doing business.
She had just started, so she needed to finish what she had in hand.
Bianca took a sip from her glass. “Seeing you like this, I’ve lost faith in relationships!”
It was the truth.
After ten years of a relationship ending up like this, what was the point of having such feelings?
Natalie’s heart skipped a beat. “The relationship between Cedric and Isabella is different. Don’t
generalize everything!”
Thinking back now, Cedric’s special treatment of Isabella was all because of a man named Ivan.
Although she found the root cause, it didn’t change that he had been cruel to her for Isabella’s sake. He
had done it because of his gratitude toward Ivan, and it was something she couldn’t forgive.
Sometimes, there are aspects of understanding between couples that shouldn’t be compromised. In
the case of Isabella, Natalie couldn’t give in, even if she loved him deeply.
Even if the love was strong, some things were just impossible.
Just as Bianca was about to say something, Natalie’s phone rang It was a call from Cedric, and the

Natalie ended the call without hesitation.
Without needing to think, she knew what he wanted to say.
But the next moment, a thunderous noise echoed through the apartment–the sound of someone
forcefully kicking the anti–theft door.
Natalie and Bianca exchanged glances. The noise was so loud that it was evident someone had kicked
‘the door directly.
Bianca stood up. I’ll go deal with him.”
“No!”
Natalie refused without a second thought.
Cedric was in a fit of rage right now..
