Chapter 104 Sending Her to Prison
When Isabella heard it was Natalie, the warmth on her face disappeared completely. It was replaced by
coldness!
When both of them were equally cold, there was a subtle similarity in their expressions that was hard to
noticel
This resemblance was like having a common point.
“Why are you here?” Isabella’s tone was icy, mocking, provocative, and… triumphant!
All these emotions were intertwined.
Undoubtedly, it was meant to provoke Natalie.
Unfortunately, Isabella was mistaken to think it would work.
This version of Isabella could no longer provoke Natalie.
Natalie smirked. “To see how miserable you are! Not a bad look on you, you know? Just what I wanted.”
Natalie effortlessly countered Isabella’s feeling of triumph.
Isabella was speechless.
At her words, the atmosphere around her abruptly turned cold.
“Hmph, revel in your triumph. Your time in the limelight is running out. I can’t wait to see you in a worse state than me!”
“Why?” Natalie’s tone turned cold as she asked.
Natalie couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy about this woman’s words. Thinking about how Cedric had repeatedly mentioned making her give her eyes to Isabella proved that this woman was extremely cunning.
Even when her conspiracies were exposed, she still calmly responded. And the way she had was…!!
Isabella was determined to take Natalie’s eyes,
Natalie could tell,
bells wanted to blind her, make her see nothing, and let everyone trample her dignity underfoot.
around, the hostility emanating from her was so intensel was a labelle
“Why? Because you deserve to die!”
“I don’t remember ever offending you!”
“Even if you didn’t do anything, I would still hate you!” Isabella’s words were sharp and ruthless.
However, it was hard for Natalie to accept such a deep hatred toward her when she hadn’t done anything.
Even if she were to die, it was o
normal to want to know the reason, right?
In her past life, she had died without knowing why!
In this life, she wouldn’t be so confused.
“It seems like you won’t tell me, huh?” Natalie’s tone turned cold. Without waiting for Isabella to respond,
she added, “Those hooligans, did they go abroad?”
TO
what extent did Cedric’s heart lean towards Isabella?
When Karina told her that after Cedric bailed out those people, they went abroad! Natalie was curious about the methods Isabella used.
This woman was truly appalling.
“No, they’re already dead,” Isabella replied.
Natalie was silent, and a flash of shock passed through her eyes.
What?
Natalie didn’t have any words to say in response. She didn’t even have the words to describe her!
This woman had overturned all her perceptions.
Saying that Isabella was ruthless didn’t even cut it close!
Was venomous a more accurate description? Like a cunning snake and a poisonous scorpion?
No, she was even worse than that!
“Heh, do you think that I can’t do anything to you at this point?”
Isabella started it! It wasn’t Natalie’s fault!
So what if Isabella lost her life due to her own actions?
Since Isabella was so adamant about hating her and unknowingly retaliated normally, then…
There was nothing wrong with what Natalie was doing!
Having said that, Natalie tuned around.
Then, Isabella’s mocking voice came from behind, ‘What do you think about him personally sending your
to prison?”
Natalie stopped in her tracks!
A chill filled her body.
Turning back, she looked at the woman sitting on the bed, smiling at her. That smile seemed so eerie.
Describing her as venomous was not an exaggeration..
“You’ll be disappointed!”
“Is that so?”
“Why don’t you give it a try?”
“Sure, I’ll do just that!” Isabella smiled.
Natalie ignored her and turned away.
On the other hand, Cedric had gone to the company for a meeting after leaving the hospital. When he came out, it was already past midnight.
Upon seeing him exit the room, his secretary respectfully stood up and said, “Mr. Johnson, Ms. Lambert is waiting for you.”
“At this hour?”
Yes, sir. She’s in the lounge.”
Cedric frowned, and an unfathomable expression flashed across his handsome face.
Though there was a hint of impatience in his eyes, he still headed towards the direction of the lounge.
Jocelyn Lambert.
the embarrassment at the banquet, Cedric thought that the Lambert family wouldn’t let her hav
with the Johnson family enwmbr
How unexpected!
Cedric silently entered the longue. When Jocelyn heard movement, she stood up.
She turned to look at Cedric with a gentle smile on her face. Just like Natalie in the past, her actions flowed effortlessly, leaving no room for any flaws.
“You’re done with your meeting,” Jocelyn spoke softly in a soothing voice.
She picked up the thing she had brought and walked towards Cedric. “I brought you a late–night snack. Why don’t you give it a try? I made it myself.”
Cedric looked at her without any reaction.
Jocelyn didn’t mind. Before coming, Rebecca had given her a lot of advice. Though Rebecca was anxious to form an alliance with the Lambert family previously, she hadn’t dared say anything much.
But now, Jocelyn took the initiative and approached her first.
So, Rebecca didn’t hide anything from Jocelyn about the situation between Cedric and Natalie.
Jocelyn knew that Cedric had a good relationship with Natalie in the past, so she was trying her best to
emulate Natalie’s demeanor.
However, there was a stark difference between Jocelyn and Natalie, Jocelyn had a tall figure. She didn’t give off the same delicate, weak vibe that Natalie did when standing next to Cedric.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing the man looking at her in silence, Jocelyn felt a bit uneasy. Still, she maintained a calm and composed expression.
That was exactly how Natalie was.
‘Don’t do such things in the future,” Cedric finally said after a long pause.
Jocelyn was stunned!
She didn’t expect Cedric to be so direct.
Her face returned to normal instantly as she calmly said, “I’m more than willing to do this for you. After all, a lifetime is a long time.”
She would take it slow and wait for him to accept her love.
Cedric was silent.
He looked at the woman before him indifferently, and his eyes were devoid of any warmth.
Jocelyn didn’t care about the way he
was acting.
If it weren’t for being confined at home during this time, she would have eagerly sought opportunities to
be close to Cedric at every moment.
Natalie didn’t have a place in Cedric’s world anymore.
Just as she was about to say something, Cedric’s phone suddenly rang.
It was from the hospital.
Cedric answered, and Jocelyn didn’t know what the person on the other end said.
Now emanating a chilling aura, the man said, “I’m coming right away.”
After saying that, he ignored Jocelyn completely and turned to walk away.
Jocelyn hadn’t heard what the person on the other end of the line had said, and Cedric didn’t care.
His abrupt departure startled Jocelyn, and she instinctively followed him.
“What’s wrong with you?”
“I’ll have the driver take you home.”
Cedric’s tone remained ice–cold.
Still, the fact that he arranged for someone to take her home showed his consideration for the Lambert family’s status in Verde City.
