Chapter 263 Irrelevant?
Karina was waiting in the lobby when Natalie entered Regal Horizons International. She rushed forward
with a worried look when she saw Natalie enter the building.
She scrutinized Natalie, and when she noticed the tear in Natalie’s shirt, her heart couldn’t help but skip
a beat.
“How could he treat you like this?” Karina said softly in a voice filled with anger.
While speaking, she took off her own coat to help cover Natalie. Appearing in the company this would
surely undermine the trust of the employees.
“It’s nothing,” Natalie replied, returning Karina’s coat before nonchalantly entering the
elevator.
like
The tear in her shirt shocked the employees, but her cold demeanor made them hesitant to say
anything about it.
In the elevator, Karina nervously observed Natalie. Clearly, Natalie’s aura had become colder
since her return.
From what Karina could tell… did the two of them have another conflict?
“Have you arranged the meeting?” Natalie asked Karina suddenly, startling the latter.
She quickly nodded, “Yes, it’s all arranged.”
Ding!
The elevator opened. Natalie stepped out and headed straight to her office. The people in the special
assistant department were astonished when they saw her condition.
However, when they felt the coldness and sharpness in her gaze, they quickly lowered their heads and
got back to work.
Natalie went directly to her office, where she had spare clothes.
After changing, she picked up the phone to make a call to Lotus Villa. However, her mobile phone rang
at that moment, displaying Stephen’s number.
Setting down the landline, she answered the call, ‘Uncle.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLheard Cedric is here?” Stephen’s tone sounded concerned, not angry.
Yes, I’ve met him,” Natalie replied.
Nat
incle, please make the arrangments for me. I don’t want him to know.” Natalie said with a
In the end, he had come.
When she made that decision back then, she knew that this day would come sooner or later. Two years
were slower than expected. Even though she was mentally prepared, facing it in reality still made her
tense.
Stephen seemed to have anticipated this as well.
A lot has happened in these two years.
Cedric had suddenly appeared and met with Natalie. There were certain things happening with Natalie
that she naturally didn’t want Cedric to know about.
“Don’t worry. As soon as we received news of him appearing in Simeria, I had someone. arrange for
him to be sent away,” Stephen said.
Natalie frowned, “When did he arrive?”
“As soon as he landed, he came to find you.”
“It seems he really had no idea you were still alive these past two years.”
“Got it.”
Natalie didn’t want to discuss this topic. She had lived freely and openly these two years. She hadn’t
intentionally hidden anything. In other words, she lived in the public eye for the entire two years, and it
was surprising that no one around Cedric knew she was alive.
“Nat.”
Just as Natalie was about to hang up the phone, Stephen stopped her. He hesitated as if wanting to
say something.
“What’s wrong?” Natalie asked.
“Cedric had nothing to do with what happened to Winnie.”
What? Nothing to do?
“Are you talking about Joshua’s situation?”
Natalie’s heart skipped a beat.
Obviously, Stephen’s sudden statement shocked her.
Two years ago, Cedric had harmed people around her because of Christina and Isabella, even
The harm he had inflicted on Winona was the guilt she couldn’t shake off for two years.
However, now Stephen said… Joshua’s situation had nothing to do with Cedric?
Stephen replied, “Yes.”
“Then…”
“Alright, I have other matters to attend to. I’ll hang up first.”
It seemed Stephen was only willing to say this much about Winona’s situation. Without waiting for
Natalie’s reaction, he hung up the phone.
phone……
For these two years, it had always been like this.
Stephen and Heather had been avoiding the topic of what happened to Winona and Joshua two years
ago. Just like now, when Stephen said Joshua’s situation had nothing to do with Cedric, he said
nothing else and was deliberately evading the topic.
He was only willing to say this much, and… he didn’t want to say anything more than that.
Listening to the dial tone on the phone, Natalie stood still and felt a bit numb all over.
Joshua’s situation had nothing to do with Cedric?
How was that possible?!
If Cedric really wasn’t involved in it, then…!
Natalie’s expression changed. The cold in her mind turned into chaos for a moment before she
regained composure.
She took a deep breath and closed her eyes to conceal the turmoil within.
It didn’t matter if it was unrelated to him.
Even if Winona’s situation had nothing to do with Cedric, he was still a heinous person. Even If it wasn’t
related to him, what about the eastern suburbs, Sylvan Gems, and even… her two
lifetimes?
Thinking about these, Stephen’s words on the phone became trivial.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeon arrived. When he saw the look on Natalie’s face, he asked in concern, “Are you okay?”
“You’ve been following me just now?” Natalie asked.
“Yes” Leon nodded.
Natalie had to admit that Leon was a very competent bodyguard. Even though he didn’t
ctly intercept Cedric, he followed her when Cedric took her away. Leon was afraid that
That was why Leon appeared before her shortly after she arrived at the company. He had arrived not
long after her.
Natalie sighed. “I’m fine.”
“Then…” Leon trailed off.
“Find out how he got out of prison!” Natalie ordered.
Two years ago, Cedric was heavily punished. After seeing his deserved fate, Natalie didn’t inquire
about the situation in Verde City anymore.
Therefore, she hadn’t paid attention to what happened there in the past two years.
However, the fact that Cedric, who was punished severely, appeared in Simeria now raised many
questions.
Was her perception of justice just a fantasy?
Thinking of this possibility, the coldness in Natalie’s eyes deepened.
“Yes, ma’am.” Leon nodded, turning to leave.
But just as he reached the door, Natalie stopped him. “Is there any news on Bia?”
Bianca Sanders!
In these two years, no matter how busy she was, she would always have her people look for
Bianca’s whereabouts.
At that time, she sent Bianca from Verde City to Simeria, fearing that Cedric might involve
Bianca.
However, Bianca had disappeared inexplicably, and even her whereabouts were unknown.
“There are some clues, but I need to confirm thern,” Leon said.
Natalie nodded. “Go ahead.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Hopefully, Bianca was safe.
