Chapter 287 Because You Owe Her

Cedric looked at Natalie in a way that showed he could barely tolerate what she was doing.

He approached her, snatched the cigarette she had only smoked halfway, and forcefully stubbed it into

the ashtray.

“Smoking is bad for your health!”

His tone was less than pleasant.

The familiarity of his words hit her.

Natalie suddenly remembered saying the same thing to Cedric before. Now, he had thrown the

words back at her.

Ignoring Cedric, she lit another cigarette.

Seeing her like this, a turbulent emotion surged in the man. He took away the lit cigarette, along with

the whole pack.

“Are you here just to control me?” Natalie finally lost control and exclaimed. She glared at Cedric, the

coldness in her eyes piercing.

That word, ‘control,‘ was immensely significant for both of them.

When Natalie married him, she had nothing. She didn’t have a family or guardian. As her husband, he

assumed the responsibility of not only a husband when he married her but also that of a guardian–she

was his dependent.

It showed just what kind of role Cedric played in Natalie’s world at that time.

However, now…

“Yes, I’m here to control you!” Cedric declared seriously, facing Natalie’s cold gaze.

The words made Natalie scoff. The irony in her laughter was not lost on Cedric.

“Fine, tell me, what right do you have to do so?” she retorted.

“Nat.”

“It’s over, do you understand? It’s been over for a long time!”

Things between them had ended a long time ago.

These words weighed heavily on Cedric’s mind. Each word pierced painfully into his heart. It was an

ache that was suffocating

They stared at each other, and Natalie’s eyes were cold and distant.

Cedric took a deep breath and suppressed the heaviness in his chest.

He stated, “I told you, I’m shameless.”

Natalie remained silent.

“Don’t bother saying it’s over. It’s a waste of breath!”

“Cedric!”

“By the way, tell your people to stop investigating. Palm Pearl belongs to me. I’m the one who snatched

those projects from Premier Garden Corporation and Imperial Luster.”

“You…”

Natalie looked at Cedric, dumbfounded. She wanted to say something about his words. However, as

Cedric had stated, he was a shameless man.

At this moment, anything she said would be in vain.

The man added coldly, “In the future, if you want to know something, just ask me directly. I won’t hide it

from you. Why go through such trouble behind my back?”

He wouldn’t hide it from her?

The crucial question was, was there any trust between them?

The answer was no.

Somewhere along the way, trust had disappeared

“Even if you’re willing to tell me, I might not believe it,” Natalie responded without hesitation.

Cedric simply looked at her. At this moment, a deep sense of helplessness flashed in his

She didn’t trust him…

Yes, she just didn’t trust him.

eyes.

He wasn’t sure when this lack of trust started. The woman who once wholeheartedly relied on him now

went to great lengths to stand at the pinnacle without relying on anyone.

Cedric had never anticipated this side of Natalie Not even the people who knew her well had. “Is there

anything else? I have a meeting to attend,” Natalie said in an ice–cold tone.

Cedric snapped back to reality, suddenly remembering why he had come here. Yet, this unexpected

visit made him reevaluate Natalie, realizing that she was no longer the Natalle he

once knew.

Standing up, he walked towards the door. “In the future, don’t make things difficult for

Natalie remained silent. The atmosphere around her instantly turned cold.

Was this the main purpose of his visit? Why bother? Why not be straightforward? Why put on a

pretense of caring so much about Natalie?

How pathetic!

As Cedric opened the door, Natalie said in an icy tone,

her away.”

since you care so much about her,!

Her tone was cold, and there was an endless calm within that coldness. She spoke as if there were no

connections between them.

Cedric had asked Natalie to move to Peach Garden.

He had asked her to spend the same amount of time with him that she had spent with Irwin in those

two years.

However, Isabella had informed Natalie that she was pregnant!

And now, Cedric once again told her not to make things difficult for Isabella.

Did he think he was a king sitting on a throne, enjoying all the benefits without a care in the world?

“You know, this is Simeria. This is my turf. It’s easy for me to make things difficult for her!”

Natalie continued coldly, “And you can’t stop me.”

Though her tone was calm, it was more dangerous than ever.

Cedric turned around, meeting her dangerous gaze. At this moment, Natalie’s words were undoubtedly

true. She could do anything she said she would.

The terrifying extent of the current Natalie was self–evident.

A chill crept into the man’s eyes. Watching the woman before him, it seemed like he had never truly

known her.

Perhaps this was her inherent nature, and it wasn’t because someone had forced her to act this way!

“What’s the matter? Don’t believe me?”

Seeing how the man kept silent, Natalie’s lips curled into a dangerous smile. Under the man’s watchful

gaze, Natalie picked up her phone and dialed a number.

Someone quickly answered on the other end, and Natalle said, “I want the whereabouts of a

“Natalie!” Cedric gritted his teeth.

He approached her swiftly and seized the phone from Natalie’s hand before she could say anything

more to the person on the other end.

He forcefully smashed the phone to the ground. A restrained anger in his eyes began to spread, and it

was about to

erupt!

“Are you serious? Do you even know what you’re doing?” he questioned furiously.

“Of course, I know!”

“of

Natalie naturally understood her own actions. However, she added, “Do you know what you’re doing?!”

Her sharp gaze met the man’s angry eyes, and her tone was unusually sharp.

She knew precisely what she was doing, but did Cedric?

Cedric stared at her, holding her gaze.

Gradually, the anger in his eyes dissipated.

“Don’t lay a hand on her again,” he warned.

“Give me a reason!” Natalie demanded.

Cedric was silent. He looked at the seriousness and sharpness in Natalie’s eyes. The words were on

the tip of his tongue, but he seemed to have trouble voicing them.

Ultimately, he took a deep breath and said, “Because you owe her.”

Natalie’s mind went blank

She stood up and grabbed Cedric’s collar, and there was an unprecedented rage in “Fine! Why don’t

you go back and calculate just how much I owe her?!”
