The familiar clicking sound of high heels echoed along the hall with the pungent scent of perfume.
It was Isabella Morgan!
She was Cedric’s lover and the woman who had taken her eyes.
Natalie furrowed her brow in disgust. Before she could call for help, Isabella spoke first.
“Don’t bother calling for anyone; I’ve sent them all away.”
Her tone was triumphant.
“Why are you here?”
Natalie was anything but polite. She had lost everything, so what else could Isabella possibly want from
her?
Isabella paid no heed to her attitude. She merely smiled and said calmly, “I’ve got some news for you.
Well, I have good and bad news.”
Natalie remained silent and waited.
“You’re pregnant.”
Pregnant?!
Natalie’s face turned ashen in an instant.
Seeing this, Isabella grinned with satisfaction. “Of course, Ced has no intention of keeping this child!
Because I’m also pregnant!”
Isabella was also pregnant?!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNatalie’s eyes widened, and her composure shattered.
‘Cedric, how could he?’
Her already ashen face grew even paler, and she trembled violently in her wheelchair.
Natalie clenched her fists tightly and tried to hold back the emotions that crashed through her.
She knew this woman had come to gloat. She was already in a wretched state, and she didn’t want to
lose her last shred of dignity.
Despite violently trembling, Natalie took a deep breath and struggled to remain calm.
“Is that so? I’ve asked him for a divorce, but he hasn’t agreed.”
The woman standing not far away froze at Natalie’s words.
Natalie could clearly sense her surprise. With that, a smile curled on her lips.
“So what if you took my eyes? Even if you’re pregnant, so what? It seems that Cedric isn’t inclined to
give you the position of his wife.”
She said this not because she cherished Cedric but because she didn’t want this woman to continue
trampling on her.
Although she had decided to end things with Cedric, she remained unyielding in the face of this
woman’s provocation.
“Hah! You’re saying all this to imply that he loves you, right? But, Natalie, ask yourself this. If he really
loved you, why would he insist you give me your eyes without a second thought?”
Isabella’s eyes brimmed with satisfied malice, and she carried the satisfaction of someone who had
won.
Isabella’s laughter stabbed Natalie’s heart even more, completely tearing apart her façade!
Undoubtedly, these words hit Natalie hard.
She was right…
If Cedric truly loved her, she wouldn’t be in this situation now.
Their ten years of love had ended so brutally…
Natalie didn’t know when Isabella had left and sat there for a long, long time…
When she finally snapped out of her daze, a thick smoke had enveloped her. She choked to the point
of tears in her eyes. Realizing something was wrong, panic and fear overcame her.
She wheeled her chair toward the door.
But everywhere she went, there was the sound of things crashing and falling. After a few consecutive
falls, she lost her sense of direction entirely.
“Cough! Cough…!”
Natalie sat on the ground, staring helplessly at her surroundings with hollow eyes. She clutched her
throat, which was sore from inhaling the smoke around her.
Her pale face was filled with fear.
But at this moment, the voices outside the door were especially jarring.
“How could the master do this? Does he actually intend to burn the madam alive?! Quick! Call the fire
department!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Shut up. We’ll pretend we didn’t see anything.”
The words they exchanged caused Natalie’s blood to run cold.
Was it Cedric who wanted her dead?
Despair completely overwhelmed her.
She lost even the courage to escape.
Death… was good.
After all, it would be a kind of release for her.
The smoke grew even thicker around her.
It became increasingly difficult to breathe.
When Natalie discovered Cedric had an affair with his secretary, she hadn’t cried.
When she opened her eyes in the hospital bed and was greeted with darkness, she was frightened, but
she hadn’t cried.
But now, after learning that Isabella was pregnant and Cedrice wanted to burn Natalie alive with their
unborn child despite their ten years of love…
She cried.
A wave of scorching heat washed over her, burning her skin gradually.
“Ahhhhh…!!!”
Her despairing scream echoed through the entire villa.
At that moment when the flames devoured her, Natalie only wished time could turn back and free her
world from the man named Cedric.
