Chapter 929 Still Have the Gall to Speak Natalie entered the adjacent room, ensuring Luna wouldn't be affected by her volatile temper before answering the phone. "Hello." Her tone was steady for now! | On the other end of the line, the person's breath seemed to waver upon hearing her voice.
A few seconds later, Cedric spoke with a suppressed tone, ""Has Bianca told you about her yet?" Hearing Natalie's voice again, Cedric felt like centuries had passed since they last spoke! No one knew how he had been surviving during this time, or how much regret he harbored. He feared hearing any news about Natalie, even if it was good. That was because the happiness she had wasn't something he had given her.
It hurt! Because he didn't know when that happiness would end or how long it would last. He consistently feared Natalie would be hurt. Because that happiness wasn't something he had given her, he constantly doubted when Austin would hurt Natalie.
Tell me what?" Her tone now carried a hint of sarcasm. Even though they weren't face-to-face, Cedric could imagine the mockery in
Natalie's eyes right now. - k "Nat." "Please watch how you address me." Such an intimate address made Natalie feel sick.
""Nat, she's really going to die this time. It's brain surgery." "Cedric, do you not understand what our relationship is? Or do you not understand the history between me and Isabella?" Death? Did Kayla's life or death really matter much to Natalie? "Natalie!" Hearing her indifferent attitude towards life and death, Cedric's tone couldn't help but get heavier.
"It seems Bia was right. I've given you too many chances before!" They've always been at odds with each other, but Natalie rarely used these serious and impolite words.
But this time, she actually said such words.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUndoubtedly, Cedric was thoroughly provoked.
Before the man on the other end of the phone with a pale face could speak, Natalie sharply retorted, "'Do you know what it means when something has ended?"
What did it mean to end? " hb If it was over, then it meant one didn't have the right to ask the other ~ person for anything or even contact them again.
Cedric understood all of this.
""Nat, Kayla, she really..." "Don't even mention her. Even if the heavens took you all away, I'd only feel relieved. How could I let anyone's life or death affect me? What were you thinking?" Natalie's tone was dripping with sarcasm, clearly attempting to push Cedric to stop contacting her.
Listening to Natalie's sharp and icy words, Cedric couldn't help but feel that Natalie had changed completely! No, how could she become like this? "You've been sponsoring those kids all this time, don't tell me...!" ""Are those kids the same as Kayla?" They weren't the same.
No matter when, Cedric always cherished Kayla even more than his own daughter.
Compared to the kids Natalie sponsored, Kayla was a completely different existence!
hice "Cedric, just live and die with her, okay?" With that, Natalie hung up before Cedric could say anything else.
The words Natalie said left Cedric feeling numb. At this moment, he seemed to understand something.
Because of Kayla, he crossed Natalie's bottom line.
Bianca forgot something at the hospital. When she came back to get it, she saw Cedric making a call to Natalie. Initially, she wanted to go up and beat Cedric up. But she overheard Natalie's sarcastic remarks on the phone, so she felt reassured.
This guy deserved it. He really thought he was all that.
"Wow, 'live and die together" is quite the line!" Bianca couldn't help but feel a little triumphant.
Cedric turned to look at her with a sharp gaze, danger flickering in his eyes. The danger burning inside him seemed like it could consume everyone around him.
However, Bianca fearlessly stepped forward. '"Nat wasn't so vicious at first." It had to be said even Bianca, as she listened to herself, couldn't help but feel that Natalie was being a bit vicious. However, she agreed with Natalie's viciousness.
If Natalie wasn't vicious, how could she drive away scum like Cedric? "At first, she probably didn't dislike Kayla so much. It was all because of you!" Didn't Cedric personally cause it? Cedric remained silent, his entire being exuding a cold aura as he stared at Bianca.
"What was wrong with you? Did you have to go after Luna?" Luna was Natalie's everything. How could Natalie possibly have a good attitude towards Kayla after what happened? Cedric's already unpleasant expression turned even worse upon hearing Bianca's words, sending chills down her spine.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMeanwhile, Natalie had returned with a calm demeanor, seemingly unaffected by Cedric's phone call. Luna, being clever, had assembled a garden to complement the house puzzle she had built, making it look even better.
"Mommy." "Yes, Sweetie?" "Look. n Natalie leaned in to take a look. She couldn't help but admire Luna's
intelligence. "Looks good. Mommy can't do this." .
Natalie was clumsy.
But no matter how much of a genius one was, they still needed guidance. Luna learned how to play with puzzles from Austin.
The image of the two playing together was still vivid in Natalie's mind.
She marveled at how Luna saw Austin as a father and how she herself was so loved.
Such a life was rare for Luna, and for Natalie, it was a form of stability.
How could she ruin it with her own hands? Cedric was the cancer in her world! During the years she spent with him, she lived in constant suppression. When his people hurt her, and he turned a blind eye! .
Even symbolic gestures of protection could make her as happy as a child.
But looking back now, she realized how foolish she was.
When Austin returned and embraced her from behind, he asked, "Been playing all day?" "Yeah, with Luna." It was sad to think that even the sense of stability she found in accompanying Luna was ultimately provided by the man standing before her. i
