Chapter 232 Nothing Worse Than an Uncaring Heart

The voice was like a restrained soul. It had been unnoticeable once or twice, but now it was more

prominent

It was so clear that it seemed he could hear it.

He had heard it countless times.

It was obvious Natalie should pay a price for her actions! She deserved it!

But every time he did something to her, that voice deep within his heart would constantly interfere.

It made him endlessly annoyed.

“Go and take a look,” he finally said coldly.

“You mean Ms. Walker?” Lucas asked.

“Yes.”

As he spoke, he took out a cigarette from the pack and lit it. He took a couple of deep drags, and only

then did it ease the oppressive and irritable feeling in his heart.

Lucas made a U–turn, and the car turned onto the road leading to the police station,

Just then, Cedric’s phone vibrated.

He pressed the half–smoked cigarette into the car’s ashtray and picked up the phone. He glanced at

the

number, and his eyes narrowed.

He massaged his throbbing forehead.

Answering the call, he said, “Hello.”

“To be influenced by two women, huh? You’re such a disappointment.”

The voice on the other end was old yet sharp.

Even through the phone, that sharpness carried a thick sense of danger.

A dangerous glint flashed in Cedric’s eyes.

Before he could speak, the voice on the other end was even sharper and more authoritative, “It’s been

ten

years; it’s time to come back!”

“I didn’t agree back then, and I won’t now.” Cedric finally spoke, his tone as cold and dangerous as the

other side.

Silence filled the air.

The two were in an invisible confrontation, though a distance separated them.

A bit later, the old voice on the phone changed and sounded deep and sinister.

“It seems I have to personally deal with those two women!”

“You dare?!”

“Ced…”

The atmosphere between the two turned icy.

Cedric’s chest heaved in anger, and veins pulsated on his forehead. For so many years… he thought

they

had no connection anymore.

However, he was wrong.

“I’m hanging up.

Without waiting for the other end to say anything. Cedric hung up

His expression was already cold before the call, but now it was worse.

“Turn around!” He commanded Lucas in a cold voice.

Lucas was momentarily stunned.

Undoubtedly, he didn’t understand the meaning of Cedric’s phone call just now. The call hadn’t been on

speaker, so Lucas naturally didn’t know what that call meant for Cedric.

In the confined space, a chilling atmosphere lingered.

After a while, Cedric said to Lucas, “Tell them that no one can bail out Nataller”

Each word was said with ruthless cruelty.

Lucas stiffened. He opened his mouth to say something, but he didn’t say anything after a slight

hesitation.

After all, the feelings of the two over the past ten years were not something outsiders could comment

on.

When Cedric appeared again at Radiant Tower, he radiated a hostile aura as he walked in.

All the employees were on edge.

On Natalie’s side, the situation earlier in the morning was quite urgent. Fortunately, there was a backup

infirmary.

In the infirmary, Leon was by her side.

The man who had gone to Elegance Bay to take her in was also there with a serious look on his face.

The man’s sharp eyes glinted. “You’re pregnant?”

“Yes, I only found out yesterday.”

She had known all along when she couldn’t leave the airport that it was only a matter of time these

days,

but she didn’t expect it to happen so quickly.

In this place she had no idea wh

as going on outside.

The man said, “Even so, we still need to investigate what happened. We’ll just adjust the interrogation

methods.”

“Thank you.” Natalie’s tone was somewhat bitter when she said this.

Her heart ached.

She hadn’t expected that the torment she endured all night would end because of this child.

In no time, the relevant personnel from Sylvan Gems‘ side came. In Natalie’s view, the situation in the

eastern suburbs was complicated enough!

She had thought, based on her previous judgments, that the eastern suburbs‘ situation was serious.

But what she didn’t expect was that Sylvan Gems‘ situation was the real deal–conclusive evidence and

witnesses!

It made it impossible for her to deny anything.

It was a tightly woven net that had been carefully crafted. The moment it enveloped her, it left

nowhere to escape!

Now, it didn’t matter if she confessed or not. With all the evidence available, she would be detained

while

awaiting trial!

“Karina is already handling your bail. Don’t say anything now. Leave it all to the lawyer!” Leon

reassured

After all, they knew she was pregnant now, so she could go through this legal procedure.

Natalie’s mind was in chaos. She was unable to hear anything clearly.

Her mind was blank!

She had been hysteric toward Cedric before. Now… she was completely powerless to escape this

situation!

While calming herself down, she repeatedly asked herself…

Should she resist? Or… follow his wishes?

In her previous life, she was helpless in the darkness!

So, what about this life? After being carefree for a while, could she still not escape his grasp?

Especially looking at the people around her…

Cedric was gradually setting them up because of her, especially on Winona’s end…!

Nothing was worse than an uncaring heart.

That was probably the best way to describe Natalie right now. She had given up and didn’t care about.

Cedric’s heart… or her own!

Everything for her seemed destined.

But stubbornly, she didn’t believe in fate!

“I don’t acknowledge those so–called pieces of evidence!”

Her response was just a simple sentencel

That already made her stance clear.

She originally had nothing to do with these matters, but Cedric Insisted on pushing her to the edge.

Even

if she died, she wouldn’t admit defeat in front of him!

She wouldn’t beg for even half a word from him, no matter how he oppressed her,

So what if she was powerless to resist?!

Even if she only had her willpower left, she would struggle to the end!

Looking at the relevant medical personnel, Natalie was unprecedentedly calm as she asked, “I don’t

want

She knew that she might not be able to leave this place as easily as Leon had suggested in the short

term.

But she couldn’t delay too long when it came to the child. The longer she delayed it, the greater the

chance the child would come into the world.

And she and Cedric had reached a point where having the child was out of the question.

The doctor was stunned.

“Don’t you know that being pregnant is actually beneficial for you now?‘ the medical staff said seriously,

looking at her.

After all, many people would be eager to get pregnant in order to escape the situation she was in.

But even in such a situation, Natalie actually wanted to get rid of the child?!

This was something many would beg for but would never obtain!

A touch of sadness and pain flashed in Natalie’s eyes. Her hands were tightly clenched together, and

she was extremely pale.

She couldn’t stop trembling.

“Beneficial, huh…”

She chuckled, and there was a bitter irony in her tone.
