Chapter 149 Jocelyn Lambert 

In the end, it was Cedric who couldn’t let go. 

It would be a reasonable solution if he agreed to send Isabella anywhere outside Verde City. 

But he didn’t. 

“She’s blind now. If you ask her to leave Verde City, where can she go? Who will take care of her?” Cedric said as he looked at Natalie. 

This statement seemed like an interrogation. 

It was also a subtle way of accusing her of cruelty! 

Natalie looked at him quietly with a smile on her lips. The laughter in her eyes was so obvious, unfamiliar, 

and ridiculous. 

“Nat…” 

Seeing her smile like that, Cedric’s heart tightened. 

He was about to reach for her hand, but Natalie pushed him away. 

Closing her eyes, she said, ‘She’s my sister, right? Even I’m not worried about her well–being. As her brother–in–law, what are you worried about?” 

Natalie had used their relations here and….. 

With that, the concern and involvement Cedric was displaying for Isabella became even more ridiculous 

and disgusting. 

Cedric’s face changed. 

He had never felt that this entanglement was contradictory before, but now… it was so awkward! 

“She’s also Ivan’s sister…” 

The original reason for taking care of Isabella now seemed so flimsy. 

Ivan, huh?” 

“Fine. Go and live the remainder of your life for Ivan’s sake!” 

After saying that, Natalie ignored Cedric and went upstairs. 

Cedric was about to follow, but Nigel stepped in and stopped him. 

“Mr. Johnson, our lady is tired. It would be best if you leave!” 

Cedric silently looked at the butler. 

Nigel’s attitude was stern. He looked as if he would fight with all his might to stop Cedric from going up 

the stairs tonight. 

Upstairs, Natalie returned to the bedroom and headed straight for the bathroom. After splashing some 

water on her face fiercely, she managed to calm herself a bit! 

Before, she thought Cedric’s affair was disgusting. 

But now, she felt that such involvement was annoying. 

Isabella was her sister. 

It was like a horrible nightmare, making her feel more uncomfortable than being cursed. 

Just then, her phone vibrated! 

Natalie picked it up. “Hello.” 

“Nat, it’s me.” Stephen’s voice came from the other end of the line. 

Natalie felt a bit better at hearing the older man’s voice. 

“Uncle.” 

“How’s it going with Irwin?” 

“Very well!” 

“That’s good.” 

Stephen sounded quite pleased upon hearing that Natalie and Irwin were getting along well. 

“Back in the day, I got along quite well with Cedric too.” 

Her tone carried a hint of bitterness. 

So, what kind of getting along was it with Irwin? 

Upon hearing this additional remark, Stephen paused, then said, “Nat, I know you’re hurt, but you still need to make an effort to believe in relationships, okay?” 

Natalie lowered her head, gazing at the reflection in the water. Even in the water, her pale complexion 

was evident. 

“I got it.” 

Starting over was really exhausting, and she didn’t express this to Stephen. 

Getting along, huh? 

Cedric and she had gotten along very well. How many people had envied their relationship? 

But in the end? 

All they were left with was a tragic outcome! 

Cedric couldn’t remember how he left Elegance Bay. Looking at the grandiose castle-like place, it felt like 

Natalie had become a princess. 

However, the prince pampering her was not him. 

In the car, Cedric smoked one cigarette after another. Finally, he picked up the phone and called Lucas. 

“I don’t care how you do it. Get Irwin out of Verde City!” 

Since Natalie couldn’t be swayed, he had to start with Irwin 

“Yes, sir!” Lucas responded solemnly from the other end of the line. 

Cedric hung up and rewatched the two video clips Christopher sent him. He watched them repeatedly 

and observed everything closely. There was clearly no acting involved! 

The last bit of comfort in his heart was shattered. 

“Nat…” he murmured softly. 

Her name, which had once been on his lips day and night, now seemed like a stranger. 

No, he wouldn’t allow it! 

From the first glance, he had decided she would be his. 

How could she leave him behind? 

The agreement to divorce was merely because she had caused too much trouble. He wanted her to regain her single status and calm down 

He had never let go of her hand. 

As long as she turned around, he would be right there. 

Little did he know…. 

Cedric was unaware that things between him and Natalie were completely different now. Even their 

worlds had deviated from their original paths. 

Right now, they were not on the same page or even on the same road! 

In the following three days, two significant events occurred consecutively in the Johnson family. 

The first event was that after Isabella was discharged from the hospital, she directly moved into the 

Johnson family. After that, Jocelyn arrived at the Johnson Manor with an unpleasant look on her face. 

“Aunt, the matter between Cedric and me has been settled, right?” 

After all, she was the precious daughter of the Lambert family. She spoke in a flat tone. Previously 

her attitude now had a slightly stronger edge, especially concerning Isabella’s situation. 

sly gentle, 

Rebecca was feeling anxious now, especially after Christina’s analysis, making her aware of Isabella’s 

cunning nature. With Isabella now living in the Johnson family, she was genuinely concerned about her 

getting involved with Cedric. 

“Of course! We’ll arrange your engagement ceremony soon!” 

Rebecca now just wanted to quickly finalize this matter. She was in a hurry. Previously, she looked down on Natalie and belittled her. 

Now, Isabella was in a unique situation. Rebecca felt that anyone was fine as long as it wasn’t her! 

She pitied Isabella’s unfortunate situation and would support her for a lifetime. However, she couldn’t let the Johnson family be burdened for a lifetime! 

Jocelyn’s expression changed. 

“No matter how far things have gone between Cedric and me, having Isabella living in the manor now is not appropriate. 

Rebecca was silent. 

It was more than just inappropriate–it was downright unsuitable! 

But Rebecca currently had no other solution. 

Rebecca glanced at Jocelyn and pulled herself together. She took a deep breath and said, “I understand 

where you’re coming from, Joyce. But she’s a blind person with no one to take care of her if she lives 

outside. What do you think?” 

“Whether it’s the Johnson or Lambert family, it’s easy to ensure that a blind person has a worry–free life 

forever!” 

That meant that if the Johnson family didn’t handle things properly, then the Lambert family probably 

wouldn’t agree to this matter either. 

In fact, Jocelyn was not willing to accept this situation. 

are that i 

if Isabella However, Amelia had forced Jocelyn to handle this matter today. Jocelyn was well aware didn’t move out of the Johnson family, her parents would surely find various reasons not to agree to this 

engagement. 

Cedric was a unique existence in Verde City! 

Many prestigious families wanted such a marriage, but the Lambert family was different; their family 

principles were strict. 

If they married and Cedric caused trouble later on, the Lambert family would unlikely do anything to him. 

also 

But the problem lies in the fact that not only does the Lambert family have strict principles, but they a 

love their children dearly. 

How could they bear to see one of their own suffer after marriage? 

For a man at the pinnacle, the woman who didn’t have his heart and still followed him would inevitably 

suffer. 

“Joyce.” 

“Aunt, I’m sorry! I love Cedric and want to spend my life with him. We cannot have someone between us!” 

Natalie couldn’t tolerate it. 

Jocelyn, even more so, couldn’t tolerate it. 

Rebecca’s expression changed. “But that’s…” 

l take my leave. I’ll wait for your good news!” 

Without waiting for Rebecca to say anything, Jocelyn
