Chapter 102 I Came Just for You 

“You want me to kneel… to someone like her?” Natalie said with an icy tone. 

That woman couldn’t afford it even if she paid Natalie to kneel! 

Even though Natalie’s heart was already dead inside, she couldn’t help but feel disappointed in this man 

right now. 

Her stunning face overshadowed her disheveled state. Even though Isabella was truly blind now, she 

could still feel Natalie’s queen–like demeanor. 

Isabella stiffened! 

Her brows furrowed, and hate flashed across her face. What did Natalie have to act so high and mighty? She was also just an orphan with nothing! 

Where did she get the confidence to act this way?! 

Natalie and Cedric continued to stare at each other, neither willing to back down. 

The air in the ward became even colder. 

“Ced!” Isabella tugged on Cedric’s sleeve. 

This small action gave off a pitiful vibe. Natalie looked at Isabella’s delicate fingers on Cedric’s sleeve with a cold gaze. 

She clung to Cedric’s sleeve, and he showed no intention of shaking her off! 

After so many years of marriage, he never allowed other women to get close, even with such small 

gestures. 

So, the presence of Isabella in his heart was indeed different… 

Natalie’s lips curled into a mocking smile. 

“Kneel!” Cedric said in an even colder tone when he saw Natalie’s smile. 

“Forget it!” Isabella’s grip on Cedric tightened. 

Every one of her actions, the pretended intimacy, was done as a provocation to Natalie. However, Cedric couldn’t see it 

Isabella was deliberately infuriating her, wanting Natalie to reveal that crazed expression in front of 

But she… failed! 

Natalie remained indifferent to everything happening before her. Her gaze was fixed on Cedric, dismissing whatever she caught in her peripheral vision. 

Her disdain, in turn, provoked Cedric! 

“Do you want to go to prison?” 

Finally, the man showed his trump card. In his hands were the evidence Stefan had investigated and 

given to him. 

Prison! 

Before, the mere thought made his heart tighten. But now, he presented it to Natalie like he was giving her 

a lifeline. He used it as a threat, intending to force Natalie to kneel and apologize to Isabella. 

However, Cedric underestimated Natalie! 

At this moment, he seemed to forget Natalie’s pride and backbone. 

Even when Rebecca threatened her with something so significant back then, she remained nonchalant. She only listened to Cedric because she was together with him. 

Back then, she listened to him no matter what! 

Even when she had endured hardship in the Johnson family, she had done everything he asked. 

But what about now? 

She remained as nonchalant as ever. There was a hint of a charming smile on her lips, which complemented her disheveled appearance. 

It sent a chill up the spine of anyone who saw her now. 

Instinctively, Cedric was about to push Isabella away. 

But the next moment, Natalie mocked, “Go to prison? Sure, ask the woman behind you if she’d let me go to prison.” 

She was indifferent and was deliberately provoking Cedric 

Her words were unexpected! 

Isabella had been hiding behind Cedric the entire time. When she heard Natalie’s words, she stiffened but quickly regained composure

“Ced, don’t do this for me.” Isabella looked pitiful and acted as if she were being considerate of Cedric’s 

feelings. 

Natalie laughed. 

The sarcasm in her laughter was thick. 

Cedric was furious. “Kneel and apologize to her!” 

How could she laugh after doing so many malicious things? 

She had bribed people to kidnap Isabella, causing her to go blind and breaking her legs. And then she 

released that video and images…! 

Now, she still appeared unrepentant! 

Was he truly mistaken? 

How could the gentle and kind woman from back then turn into this? 

Cedric felt not only disappointed but also angry at Natalie. 

“Now that she’s blind for real, does that mean the things I had people release aren’t true?” 

“You…” 

Natalie’s words made Isabella’s face turn even paler. 

To Isabella, Natalie was someone not worth explaining to. 

However, were these words an explanation now? 

She was blind and couldn’t see anything. Even her perception of people’s emotions was merely based on 

her own assumptions and feelings. She tried to sense what Cedric was feeling now. 

When Natalie uttered that sentence, she distinctly felt the man’s arm beside her stiffen instantly. 

“Ced.” Isabella tugged at Cedric’s sleeve once again, hoping to shift his attention with such a small gesture. 

The changes on her face were clear from Natalie’s perspective. 

One couldn’t deny that this woman was truly cunning. 

The smile on Natalie’s lips widened, 

Cedric, what makes you think that the current public opinion is me framing her? 

What about the previous public outcry against Natalie? Why didn’t he ever think that they were wrongly 

accusing her? 

Indeed, people were different. Their perceptions differed and would lead to completely different 

perspectives. 

The two remained silent and continued staring at each other. 

Seeing Cedric ignoring her, Isabella made a greater effort to pull at him. 

“I’m fine. Please don’t make a scene anymore, okay?” 

They couldn’t continue like this! 

That damn Natalie! Isabella didn’t expect her to be so difficult to deal with. 

Isabella was a bit scared now. 

What would have happened if Isabella had not noticed her attending physician had resigned? What if she hadn’t noticed Natalie sending someone in to retaliate against her? 

Isabella had come this far, and she couldn’t afford to fail! 

“Let’s just say I blinded myself.” 

As expected, this statement landed like a bomb. 

Cedric instantly shifted his focus onto her. 

Turning around, he grabbed her shoulders, his anger evident. “I won’t allow you to do this again!” 

Why should he give in to Natalie? 

She was a malicious woman…! 

Seeing Isabella pushed to this point by Natalie, Cedric wished he could press Natalie to the ground and 

make her apologize to Isabella 

Kidnapping, crippling, suicide…! 

The thought of isabella attempting suicide made the expression in Cedric’s eyes even colder. 

When he turned to look at Natalie, his gaze was an icy stare. ‘How far do you want to push her?” 

if you hate me, just come after me! 

Yes, Natalie hated him! 

Ever since those rumors started circulating, he hadn’t given her any explanation, thinking she trusted him: 

But little did he know, she harbored such deep hatred for him. 

Natalie smiled again. 

“Yes, of course. Aren’t I already doing that?” 

Indeed, she had already started coming after him. The eastern suburbs project was just the beginning. 

There was a murders 

Natalie. 

a murderous glint in the man’s eyes. He looked as if he wished looks could kill as he glared at 

Natalie fearlessly met his gaze, showing no signs of backing down. She glanced at Isabella, who was being protected by Cedric. 

She smiled and said, “Isabella, I truly admire you!” 

Without any further explanation for her words, Natalie turned and walked away. 

Yes, she admired Isabella! 

To scheme against Natalie, Isabella went to the extent of blinding herself and crippling her own legs! Natalie had to admit that Isabella truly was a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
