Chapter 300 A Slap on the Man’s Face

Upon Lydia’s remarks, the coldness in Natalie’s eyes dissipated and was replaced by calmness.

Was this what the person behind Isabella wanted?

The person in the shadows…!

After tonight’s encounter, Natalie was almost certain of it–Stephen’s previous speculation

was correct.

Isabella had someone backing her.

With this thought in mind, Natalie picked up her phone and called Leon.

He answered promptly, “Yes, Miss?”

“Just make sure Cedric sees what I mean.”

She implied that there was no need for real force, but she wanted Cedric to learn a lesson.

It was a restless night for Natalie.

Early the next morning, Stephen saw Natalie at the breakfast table in Lotus Villa and was somewhat

surprised.

“I thought you wouldn’t be back anytime soon.”

Natalie looked at Stephen and said, “You previously mentioned that Isabella had ulterior motives in

approaching Cedric and me, right?”

“Why bring this up all of a sudden?”

“I think you’re right. I could feel it,” Natalie said.

Stephen was silent.

Natalie could feel it?

Stephen looked at her, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

He had to admit that Natalie had gained quite a bit of experience in the two years she had been at

Regal Horizons International.

No one knew the intensity of her work over these two years, and no one knew how many people she

had met Moreover, no one knew that every time she met these people, she had to accurately analyze

what kind of person they were and what kind of collaboration would be

She couldn’t afford to be simple and naive when standing in such a position.

So, she could now grasp a sense of many things that she couldn’t two years ago.

Stephen sighed, which left Natalie puzzled!

“Uncle?”

“I’m still confirming Cedric’s background right now. Once I’m done with that, I’ll be able to determine

who’s backing Isabella.”

“Cedric’s…

“Do you still think he’s the same man you used to know back then? You recall that he effortlessly

escaped from Verde City prison, right?”

Natalie was stunned.

Obviously, Cedric wasn’t the same man she used to know!

She had already discovered that Cedric could have easily left Verde City two years ago, but he had

stayed in prison because he just chose to give up everything.

When Dylan and Zane investigated the evidence, any action from him, no matter how small, would

have disrupted their smooth progress.

As the saying goes, there was no greater sadness than heartbreak.

It seemed that this saying also applied to a man like Cedric.

Natalie’s expression darkened, and Stephen continued, “I’m sure you know he could have easily left

Verde City two years ago.

“He came out of prison because of you!”

Otherwise, they would have believed Cedric was genuinely subdued.

Cedric had come out of prison so quickly because he received news that Natalie was alive.

Natalie’s complexion wasn’t great. Clearly, she never liked others associating her with Cedric. “Uncle-”

“Simeria is not as simple as you think it is now. Be cautious in some of the upcoming projects, Stephen

interrupted with a deep tone, making Natalie sense the complexity of the situation. Nodding, she

replied, “I understand.”

f her uncle warned her to be cautious, she would naturally pay more attention

Returning to the topic of Cedric, Stephen looked at her more seriously and said, “Nat, your need to

figure things out between you two.”

Figure things out? Between her and Cedric?

Clearly, the things between them had become too tangled to unravel.

It wasn’t like she wanted to…!

“I know you don’t want to get involved with him any further. But even if you don’t, you must understand

the truth behind it.”

“Is it really important?”

Natalie wasn’t too fond of this idea.

“What if the fact that you two got together was also part of a scheme?” Stephen asked.

At his words, Natalie’s expression instantly changed.

Isabella inserting herself between her and Cedric might have been a scheme.

Now, her uncle was suggesting that her relationship with Cedric might also be part of a scheme?!

How was that possible?!

“Uncle…?” Natalie’s voice tightened.

If Stephen’s speculation was correct, then the situation between her and Cedric was even more

terrifying than she thought.

Stephen took a sip of his drink and said, “Let’s hope I’m just overthinking things. But at the moment, it

doesn’t seem so.”

If his speculation was true, then the person behind everything was indeed extraordinary.

They already confirmed that Isabella had someone backing her.

However, who that person was, and their intentions remained unclear.

This was also the reason why Stephen wanted to figure things out.

Natalie didn’t know how she got out of Lotus Villa, and her complexion was not good.

Just as she was about to get into Leon’s car, she saw Cedric standing by a nearby car in a black

windbreaker. There was an air of nobility and aloofness around him.

With just one glance, he strode towards her.

Before Natalie could react, he grabbed her and led her directly towards his car.

“What are you doing? Let go of me!” Natalie protested.

Cedric ignored her and bundled her into the car without much trouble. Natalie was infuriated but she

had no way to deal with Cedric

The car drove far, far away.

They drove to a secluded place. In the cramped space, heaviness filled the air, and the man’s hands

remained firmly on the steering wheel.

His entire demeanor exuded an icy coldness that was forcefully restrained.

After a while, it was the man who broke the silence.

“Why did you do that last night!?”

“Are you talking about the Hillside Villa incident or throwing Isabella out of Simeria?” Natalie responded

with a cold tone.

As she finished speaking, the already oppressive atmosphere grew even more stifling.

The man looked at Natalie and said, “Do you know the impact of doing such things at this critical

moment?”

“Are you worried about me? That’s rare!!

Unfortunately, she didn’t believe it. She knew her methods last night were intense, but it was just a

lesson for them.

The man’s eyes turned bloodshot. He grabbed her, pressing her firmly onto his leg before Natalie could

react.

Before she could react, he leaned close to her ear and said, “Don’t do anything to Isabella again, got

it?!”

Natalie remained silent, and the air around them turned cold.

Slap!

A sharp sound echoed in the small space as Natalie slapped the man’s face.

The already heavy atmosphere intensified once more.
