Chapter 393 Their Similarities
Inside the hospital room, Clyde glanced at the child resting on the bed.
Despite the fever, Luna remained in a deep sleep, unaware of her surroundings.
“Her nose and mouth resemble his so much,” Clyde muttered, his brows furrowed.
Natalie remained silent.
Recalling her earlier encounter, she felt fortunate that Kyle had stopped himself. Had he not, and if
word got back to Cedric, the entire Simeria might have been thrown into chaos!
Even without full knowledge, things had already escalated significantly. The implications of what might
happen if the truth carne out were unthinkable.
“Please don’t mention it,” she pleaded.
“Cedric just made a call to Wexford,” Clyde revealed.
“Was it to do something to you again?” Natalie’s head began to throb.
Cedric’s unpredictable temperament always left her on edge. Each of his actions seemed hasty,
without forethought..
How had she not noticed this about him before they married? Why did he seem increasingly
unreasonable now?!
“He suggested that I move out of the Jarvis family residence, didn’t he?” Clyde asked.
“Yeah.”
That was right.
Natalie felt that Cedric was becoming more of a lunatic. They were divorced, but he was still causing so
much trouble!
Clyde responded, “The banquet is in three days.”
“Do you have any plans?”
“It’s best if you focus on Caleb,” Clyde warned.
At the upcoming banquet, their true identities would be revealed. Once Cedric knew, Clyde would be
safe.

Knowing that there was a child between Caleb and Natalie, it was clear what Cedric would do.
He wouldn’t spare Caleb.
It was impossible to reason with Cedric.
He didn’t care if he didn’t have the right or that it was none of his business.
He did things according to his mood.
“Right now, my primary concern is when Cedric will leave Simeria and how useful the
Schneider family can be in this matter,” Natalie stressed.
Her paramount concern was when Cedric would depart.
Though Kyle seemed convinced earlier, Natalie couldn’t fully trust him. Every thought led to a
migraine–inducing spiral of complications.
Why had she entangled herself with a man like Cedric in the first place?
“Don’t fret too much,” Clyde tried to reassure her.
“How can I not? One of Cedric’s assistants already noticed the resemblance between her and
Cedric!”
Natalie’s anxiety was noticeable.
Clyde’s expression darkened at her words. If Cedric’s people could see the similarity, it was
undoubtedly troubling.
“It seems we have to make the Schneider family move,” Clyde said, eyeing Natalie.
The Schneider family?
At this point, Natalie wished they would act decisively, forcing Cedric to return to Wexford and out of
her life for good.
Seeing Natalie’s tense expression, Clyde remarked, “Don’t worry too much. Those around him are
astute. They know what’s best for Cedric.”
Though he said this, they were still Cedric’s men! It would be a lie to say she wasn’t worried at all!
Natalie felt a suffocating anxiety. She genuinely feared what might happen if Cedric found out.
The mere thought of it was unbearable.
By morning, Luna’s fever had subsided.
When Heather learned about Luna’s hospitalization, she rushed over in a panic.
“You reckless girl! Were you trying to give me a heart attack?” Heather exclaimed, noticing how Luna
was hooked up to various machines.
“I was taking care of her,” Natalie defended.
And you didn’t think to inform me when you took her to the hospital?” Heather was fuming.
“Clyde and I were both there,” Natalie retorted.
“Clyde? That’s your brother! You should call him Bro‘ or ‘Cly‘ at the very least!” Heather snapped.
Natalie remained silent. In the past, she would have snapped back. But given the current situation,
especially with Luna’s health, she held her tongue.
Having a protective brother wasn’t all bad.
On Cedric’s side, Kayla’s condition wasn’t grave, so she was discharged by dawn.
As they exited the hospital gates, Cedric saw Clyde entering the hospital with an intimidating. air
around him.
Clyde met Cedric’s eyes, and tension crackled between them under the early morning sun.
“Daddy.” Kayla had woken up and was tugging at Cedric’s coat. Cedric returned to his senses and
glanced down at the anxious–looking child in his arms.
He smiled and said, “Let’s go home.”
“Okay.”
Kayla could sense Clyde’s hostility, making her uneasy. Like any child, discomfort prompted
her to avoid confrontation.
Inside the car, Cedric massaged his throbbing temples after making sure Kayla was comfortable. He
was haunted by Clyde’s cold eyes and familiar features.
“Kyle,” he called.
“Yes, Your Excellency,” Kyle responded.
“How did you feel when you saw Clyde earlier?”
Kyle, with sharp intuition, knew something was amiss.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHaving noticed the striking resemblance between Luna and Cedric the previous night, he could
obviously feel the unsettling atmosphere today.
Yet, one couldn’t ignore the murmurs and gossip circulating within high society.
“They look remarkably alike!” Kyle responded.
Indeed, strikingly so, not just a passing resemblance. It was as if looking at a male and female version
of each other.
The only difference was Natalie’s petite stature.
That raised a critical question!
Natalie had always been an only child.
So, why did Clyde have features that were almost identical to her?
“Do you think there’s some connection between Madam and Mr. Yarbrough?”
“Impossible!” Cedric’s immediate and firm denial left no room for doubt.
Natalie and Clyde being twins?
Unthinkable.
Kyle fell silent.
Cedric rarely visited Wexford, so his interactions with Clyde had been minimal.
Despite Clyde’s youth, his influence within Wexford was undeniable. Even the powerful Schneider
family had to treat him with deference.
And yet, following Stephen’s visit to Wexford, Clyde had suddenly arrived in Simeria and had taken up
residence with the Jarvis family.
Was it merely because of the uncanny resemblance between him and Natalie? Did they also think the
same way because of it?
The more Cedric pondered this, the more confusing things around Natalie seemed to be. He wasn’t the
only one baffled. Kyle was in the same boat.
Everything had changed.
The once innocent Natalie now seemed surrounded by enigmatic affiliations.
“Should we investigate this matter?
Let’s do that.” After mulling over various thoughts, Cedric finally agreed.
Yes, it was essential to seek evidence in certain matters, right?
There were too many unresolved misunderstandings between him and Natalie.
No matter how enraged or unwilling he felt in the future, he’d have to be more cautious.
