    Chapter 49 The Conditions for Apology


    Yuvan felt like he was going to die soon as he watched the scene unfold before him.


    As Cedric closed in on her, the coffee she had sshed on him earlier now adorned her white dress.


    Natalie had a penchant for cleanliness, and she was furious.


    “Cedric, are you out of your mind?! You… Mmph!”


    It hurt!


    Cedric’s k*ss was domineering and fierce,cking the tenderness he once showed. His sudden,


    forceful actions made everyone in the coffee shop quickly bury their heads in their work as if they


    hadn’t seen


    anything.


    The taste of blood lingered on her l*ps.


    Natalie struggled to push him away, but she couldn’t budge the unyielding man.


    Warm breath tickled her ear, and his tone was gentle as he coaxed, “Nat, be a good girl, hm?”


    So, he was trying to coax her, huh?


    In the past, Cedric would leave her alone to calm down for a while. Then, he would coax her like this,


    treating her almost like a child.


    It was a trick that had always worked wonders on her.


    it


    Whenever Cedric used it, it was very effective. It could turn her from the most enraged and furious


    woman into a calm and forgiving one.


    Even when she faced the disdainful gazes of those from the Johnson family, a little coaxing from Cedric


    could make her forget everything.


    But now…


    Natalie didn’t push him away. In the face of his coaxing, her voice grew colder.


    “Spit it out. What do you want me to do?”


    Had he forgiven her?


    No, he knew nothing about it.


    He was blindly swayed b


    public opinion, putting unlimited faith in Isabe’s words. He had no intention of


    What he wanted was herpromise on Isabe’s matter.


    *Come with me first,” Cedric said, not answering her question. He simply took Natalie’s hand and


    pulled


    her out of the café.


    Natalie was reluctant to go!


    However, Cedric was gripping her wrist so tightly that Natalie had no choice. She ultimately got into the


    car with him.


    As they got closer to the hospital, Natalie’s heart grew even colder.


    He hadn’t given up yet?!


    “Cedric, what do you think of me?”


    She had clearly refused, but this man brought her here.


    In the past, whenever she voiced her refusal, he never forced her to do anything.


    But now… he seemed obsessed.


    “Come inside with me first, alright?” Cedric didn’t want to argue with Natalie. He now understood that


    she became particrly rebellious during arguments.


    The current Natalie left him at a loss.


    Finally, Cedric half–coaxed, half–forcibly took Natalie into the hospital,


    In the hospital room, Isabe emerged from the bathroom in a bathrobe. Her hair was damp, and the


    scent of her shampoo lingered around her. She had always been beautiful, and the post–bath glow


    entuated her natural beauty.


    She had long, shapely legs and the gift of natural beauty. Her inherent qualities were truly exceptional.


    Her phone buzzed, and she noted it was Christina calling.


    She answered, “Hello?”


    “So far, they haven’t divorced. You need to put more effort into it,” Christina said impatiently, her tone


    more like amand.


    It had been dragging on for too long.


    Originally, given Natalie’s love for Cedric thele dis


    Cedric had also been raised like a prince in the Johnson family. If Natalie caused enough trouble, he


    would surely run out of patience, right?


    After all, in the eyes of the people in the Johnson family, Natalie had always been a very proper


    woman. She had used her gentle approach to keep Cedric’s heart.


    Isabelle acted as a woman who was more gentle and understanding than Natalie. Christina had firmly


    believed that since Isabelle appeared, the rtionship between Natalie and Cedric would be over!


    However, Natalie had caused so much trouble. Yet, Cedric still showed no sign of letting go.


    Christina was losing patience.


    Isabe said, “I’ve done everything I should do. It seems the pressure from you and your mother hasn’t


    had any effect.”


    “What do you mean by that?”


    “Nothing!”


    Isabe felt her mood turn sour every time she spoke to Christina.


    Christina’s tone turned cold at the disrespect.


    “Isabe, I hope you remember your position. After this is over, you’ll go abroad, and you will get


    everything you’re entitled to. If you dare entertain other thoughts, I won’t hold back.”


    As Christina spoke, her threats became more pronounced. As she finished speaking, her tone was


    filled with a strong sense of intimidation.


    Isabe’s gloomy face turned even darker at Christina’s words. A hint of disdain shed in her eyes.


    Instead of directly answering Christina’s question, she asked, “How do you n to be with him after


    Natalie’s out of the picture?”


    “You don’t need to worry about that. I have my ways,” Christina replied before abruptly ending the call.

    Isabe listened to the beeping tone, and her eyes hardened.


    Who did Christina think she was?


    She was just the Johnson family’s adopted daughter!


    Even if Natalie and Isabe were no longer around, Christina had no chance of being with Cedric.


    Reba couldn’t even ept Natalie or Isabe. The Johnson family was a traditi


    Hmph! Did Christina think she was so great? It wasn’t like Isabe had teamed up with her because


    she


    was a capable woman!


    The more Isabe thought about it, the more disdain she felt. She mmed her phone onto the hospital


    bed and tossed her towel aside. Then she ran her fingers through her long hair.


    There was no sign of the weakness and need for rest that doctors had mentioned!


    All that was visible was her gentle and alluring charm!


    The elevator’s door chimed as it opened, and Natalie shook off the man’s hand.


    However, Cedric refused to release her and forcefully dragged her off the elevator.


    Natalie struggled, but the man’s strong arm wrapped around her slender waist in the next moment,


    leaving her with nowhere to escape.


    Natalie red at Cedric and said, “Do you think that forcibly bringing me up here will make me


    apologize


    to her? Dream on!”


    “Wait until you see her.


    This time, Cedric didn’t insist with force. He spoke calmly.


    Since Isabe had been brought back, Natalie had not seen her once. At this moment, Cedric still


    believed that Natalie was a kind person who had acted impulsively.


    He believed that once she saw Isabe, she would change her mind.


    Also… she must face the consequences of this matter on her own!


    He couldn’t bear to impose too heavy of a burden on her, but the apology could not be avoided.


    Natalie red at Cedric in frustration.


    Meanwhile, Isabe had put on her headphones and was lying on her bed, enjoying her favorite music.


    She had a habit of listening to gentle music when she slept. But due to her involvement with Christina,


    she hadn’t done so in a long time.


    It was a rare moment of peace tonight, so she would indulge!


    Tue 17 meet her if that


    She agreed


    But in the next moment, Natale continuing The age ough night


    Natalie couldn’t break free from Cedric’s grip. So, she stopped not far from Isabe’s door and said,


    “Wait!


    “What is it?”


    “Fine. I’ll meet her if that’s what you want.”


    At these words, Cedric’s expression softened slightly.


    She…agreed!


    But in the next moment, Natalie continued, “Have Yuvan bring the divorce agreement for you to sign


    right


    away, and I’ll go in. I’ll apologize however you want me to. I’ll even kneel if necessary!”
