Chapter 114 Can’t Calm Down Without a Showdown 

“Is Cedric furious now?” 

“Furious is an understatement!” 

When Natalie saw Cedric’s face at the hospital entrance, she knew he was ready to explode at any 

moment. 

Thinking for a moment, Natalie said, “He probably has to put some effort into protecting Isabella now, 

right?” 

Isabella had dealt with the people who instigated trouble on her end previously, likely because she was worried that someone might uncover something if she didn’t. 

However, there was no shortage of extremists in a vast place like Verde City. Even if Natalie didn’t do anything, wouldn’t someone else take action? 

Those people might not dare to harm Cedric, but they wouldn’t be lenient with Isabella! 

Considering Isabella’s previous actions that Natalie had exposed and the commotion that happened at the hospital entrance this afternoon, everyone would attribute the blame to Isabella. 

“Will it be difficult for you?” Despite finding satisfaction in this, Bianca is still concerned about Natalie. 

Cedric had always protected Isabella, However, he would never protect Natalie enough when Isabella 

hurt her. 

Natalie shrugged nonchalantly. “Why do I have to worry? It’ll be peaceful for a long time now, just the way 

I want it!” 

Yes, after the incident at the hospital entrance today, Cedric should realize that Natalie was not someone 

to be trifled with. 

Today, she had caught him completely off guard! 

Now, looking at it, he seemed as foolish as a pig! 

Natalie guessed right. 

When Cedric saw this news report, he was so angry that he wanted to tear someone apart. 

At this moment, Isaac was in his office. Looking at Cedric’s expression, Isaac felt the urge to escape. 

Yuvan!” Cedric called as he seethed in fury. 

This time, Natalie had firmly crossed the last line! 

Yuvan stood respectfully on the side and bowed, “Yes, sir.” 

Tell all the companies cooperating with Natalie that working with her is tantamount to opposing me!” 

He refused to believe that her studio could be sustained with the support of just Apex Global and Premier 

Garden Corporation! 

Isaac’s hands trembled in fear. 

He looked at Cedric, “Are you trying to make her unable to survive in Verde City? Isn’t this too heartless!?” 

It shouldn’t be like this! 

Cedric even called out Natalie’s name when he was drunk! He was that infatuated with her! How could 

such a man make such a determined decision? 

Cedric narrowed his eyes dangerously. 

“With a man who’s old enough to be her father supporting her, what is there to worry about whether she 

can survive in Verde City or not?” 

Isaac was speechless! 

“Have you thoroughly investigated that matter?” 

Isaac wouldn’t believe it without evidence. 

Why would such a proud woman willingly be with an older man? 

“Is there a need to?” 

Cedric’s mood, which was already bad, became even worse when he thought of Natalie being with 

Stephen. 

His emotions were out of control. 

Stefan has many tricks up his sleeves. If you want to know, just get him to check. Don’t make a mistake, 

I’m telling you!” 

Isaac was a true friend! 

In Cedric’s terrifying loss of control, Isaac could still offer such rational advice, showing genuine concern 

Especially concerning Isabella. 

After seeing her twice at the inspection booth, he had a vague feeling that she was no ordinary woman. 

Although she looked very pure, her aura was anything but. 

Already angered and annoyed by Natalie, Cedric lit a cigarette. He took two deep puffs and told Yuvan, 

Go and handle it.” 

“Yes, sir!” 

After Yuvan left, Cedric took another harsh drag from the cigarette, his frustration evident in his 

expression. 

Isaac asked, “Are you serious about this?” 

“If I don’t deal with her properly, I won’t feel better!” Cedric said harshly. 

At the hospital entrance, he had seen the satisfaction in her eyes. 

How had he ended up raising such a sly fox? He had pampered her to an outrageous extent over the 

years! 

Isaac was silent. 

Well, hearing Cedric say that made Isaac feel relieved. Cedric seemed really angry, but the things he was doing were mostly to scare Natalie. 

Women were like that. If one couldn’t coax them, scaring them a bit was also good. As long as she behaved herself, there was no need to take it seriously. 

But Natalie took it seriously! 

Although Cedric was convinced that there was something between Natalie and Stephen, he called Stefan 

because there had been no results on Yuvan’s end. 

If Stefan could find evidence of Natalie harming Isabella, then he would undoubtedly be able to find the 

true nature of the relationship between Natalie and Stephen in the shortest time possible. 

“Yeah. Look into it as soon as possible!” 

Cedric was silent as he waited for the response from the other end. 

“Yes. I mainly want to know the relationship between her and Stephen!” 

Cedric wanted to see why these two people would get entangled together. 

He thought about what Natalie had gotten recently. She had gotten a place to live in Elegance Bay, a Bugatte… and now even a Pagani! 

Isaac’s reminder made him feel that their relationship might not be as simple as it seemed. 

After hanging up the phone, Isaac sighed in relief. “Stefan always moves quickly.” 

“Yeah.” 

“But haven’t you asked her personally?” Isaac asked Cedric. 

And Cedric…! 

His eyes revealed frustration. Every time, things between them would quickly escalate into a fight when it 

came to matters related to men. 

Why bother asking directly? 

They would just end up arguing. 

Although he was still upset now, he said, “When you mentioned it, I also feel their relationship might not be as simple as it seems.” 

Stephen and Heather always had an affectionate relationship, based on the reports he had received. Heather would have made a scene long ago if Natalie was really Stephen’s mistress and had spent so 

much money on her. 

Although Heather had no sons, she had a daughter. How could she allow a mistress to infringe upon her 

child’s rights? 

“Yeah. I’m sure you’re just confused ‘cause she got you so worked up!” Isaac said after thinking for a while. 

That statement was true! 

During this period, Cedric was too preoccupied with anger to maintain rational thinking whenever it 

Involved Natalie. 

Especially today at the hospital! The fact that he had been played by that sly woman made him even more 

furlous! 

On the other side, Natalir was supposed to have dinner with Blanca, but Caleb called to celebrate their 

successful collaboration. 

+15 BONUS 

According to common practice, she should be the one treating him. But given the situation with Cedric’s 

disturbance, Natalie almost forgot. 

So when Yvonne called, she agreed without much thought. 

“Bia, I have a social engagement tonight and can’t have dinner with you.” 

Blanca rubbed her somewhat tired face. “Although I’m happy to see how independent you’re being, your 

should also pay attention to your health.” 

“Yeah, I got it.” 

“Now it seems that I don’t have to worry anymore, even if Cedric or his family bullies you!” 

Seeing how Natalie dealt with every situation involving Cedric so calmly and smoothly, Bianca knew 

Natalie wasn’t someone who would take things lying down anymore.
