    Chapter 177 Isabe’s Embarrassment


    After hanging up Natalie’s call, Reba immediately called Cedric


    After a few moments, Cedric answered, “Hello.”


    “Where are you now?”


    “Sapphire.”


    “Is there something wrong with you?! Reba was visibly angry. “Turn around and drive back


    immediately. No matter what happened with Isabe, I’ll handle it!”


    “Who told you?” Cedric asked solemnly.


    He had just stepped out of Scarlet Vi’s gate when Reba called


    “Don’t worry about who told me. Just remember that this matter is not so simple. I hope you


    understand!”


    “What do you mean?”


    “Don’t you see? Your rtionship with Natalie has just improved a little, and Isabe suddenlyes


    looking for you? I suspect… there’s someone behind her!”


    Previously, Reba had never thought about this. She always believed it was Isabe’s cunning


    scheme and that she was doing it alone.


    But now, Natalie’s words made her realize that if Isabe was such a cunning woman, a lot of things


    could be exined!


    Isabe had a roof over her head, and she was set for life with the Johnson family caring for her.


    What else could she be dissatisfied with that she needed toe looking for Cedric?


    There was only one exnation!


    As Natalie had said, there was someone behind her!


    But who exactly was behind her?


    That was


    In the car, Cedric exuded a chilling aura.

    “In that case, I must go even more!”


    “You know what the rtionship between her and Natalie is like, Ced! It’s possible… that it’s a trap for

    family!”


    Cedric’s face hardened, and a dangerous glint shed in his eyes.


    A trap for the Johnson family!?


    “It’s not asplicated as


    ou think!”


    Obviously, Cedric didn’t think too much at that moment, but Reba couldn’t let it go.


    She said, “No matter what Isabe wants from you, don’t meet her for the time being!”


    “If you’re not at ease, I’ll go to Sapphire right away!” Rebapromised.


    In one night, the situation in Verde City seemed to have truly be chaotic.


    Natalie’s reminder to Reba instantly brought out many questions.


    Everything that was now in the past didn’t seem as simple as mere coincidences….


    When Cedric left Scarlet Vi, Christina called Natalie.


    Natalie noted the caller and answered.


    “Hello, Ms. Johnson. What do you need?”


    “Natalie, did you see? That’s how insignificant you are in his heart!”


    “I knew it was you.


    As long as she was by Cedric’s side, this woman would trouble her at every moment.


    Natalie’s fingers moved subconsciously.


    “You’re recording this, right? Christina asked.


    Natalie was silent.


    called to check on you and want to record our call. Is it necessary? Christina remarked, showing her


    telligence


    +15 BONUS


    Natalie turned off the recording.


    On the other end, there was a lightughter.


    “Don’t you find it disgusting?” Christina said.


    Natalie remained silent, listening.


    “I used to wonder why she hated you so much. It turns out you used up what belonged to her. Even if


    youpensate tenfold now, she won’t forgive you, right?”


    Christina had figured it out.


    She knew that Isabe was Natalie’s sister.


    She also knew the vast difference in the environments Isabe and Natalie grew up in. Compared to


    Natalie, Isabe had a much more difficult life, constantly enduring the blows of society and growing up


    in the mud.


    The path she took was filled with hardships, and her deep hatred towards Natalie and Natalie’s mother


    stemmed from the adversities she faced.


    She wished to utterly destroy Natalie.


    font find it


    “Ms. Johnson, if you don’t find it disgusting, why should I? Also, let me remind you, there’s nothing in


    my family that belongs to her!”


    “A child born out of wedlock enjoys equal inheritance rights, Natalie. Don’t you understand? You also


    have awyer friend, don’t you?”


    Natalie closed her eyes.


    “Do you think you can continue staying in the Johnson family when Cedric and Reba learn of your


    true


    nature?”


    “You’re quite a capable woman yourself. Yet, you didn’t manage to do anything about it, right?”


    Natalie had to admit that Christina was genuinely intelligent.


    Over the years, Natalie had tried more than once to let Reba and Cedric know what kind of person


    she


    But it was useless.


    Christina was cunning, or perhaps Natalie was just ineffective


    +15 BONUS


    “Hmph, they’ll know eventually!”


    “Natalie, technically, we shouldn’t have any grievances after your divorce with Ced. But why are you so


    stubborn?”


    Hah! Even Christina’s tone sounded so possessive and intimate when calling Cedric’s name!


    I


    “Christina, I find you quite pitiful. After all these years, you still don’t dare show even half your liking for


    him.”


    “You also know how Reba is, right? Even if she treats you like her own, you’ll be kicked out of the


    Johnson family once you cross thest of her limits!”


    In the three years she was in the Johnson family, Natalie had observed and more or less understood


    everyone in the family.


    What did Reba think of Christina?


    She wanted to use her for a marriage alliance!


    At most, Cedric regarded her as a sister!


    And Christina’s feelings for Cedric… perhaps only Natalie understood them the best.


    When she dealt with the women around Cedric before, Christina never intervened directly; it was


    always


    in Reba’s name.


    “How pathetic! Even if you drive away all the women around him, what’s the use? You’ve been patient


    for ten years and still gained nothing. The only thing you gained was probably your patience!”


    No, it was more urate to say that all she had gained was an obsession!


    Natalie had to admit that Christina’s obsession was truly frightening!


    “Be smug while you still can.”


    “By the way, let me remind you.” Natalie thought of something and continued, “Reba is starting to


    suspect that there’s someone behind Isabe now.”


    If she finds out that you’ve been working with Isabe all along, what do you think will happen?”


    Natalie!


    +15 BONUS


    “I also think I’m a bit despicable!”


    In the past, she was foolish!


    She directly admitted that it was Christina.


    What did she get? Angry rebukes.


    Everyone believed in Christina!


    However,


    if Reba had any doubts, she would definitely investigate thoroughly.


    “I didn’t bother dealing with you before this, but I’m getting tired of this, you know?”


    In the past, Natalie had disliked dealing with Christina.


    But Natalie was repeating another life now, and Christina’s repeated actions… could make even a saint


    annoyed!


    After hanging up Christina’s call, Natalie took several deep breaths.


    Her eyes dimmed.


    There was amotion at the door, and Cedric entered, exuding a chilling aura.


    He frowned and said, “Butler, gather everyone.”


    “H–has something happened?”


    “Just do it!”


    “No need. It was me.” Natalie said as she came out of the dining room, looking at Cedric


    Reba had really moved fast.


    Cedric was originally convinced that Reba had nted someone here again, but he didn’t expect it


    to


    be Natalie.


    Natalie looked at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”


    “What’s wrong with you?”


    “You might not be able to think things through, but I don’t want to bear this embarrassment. If I didn’t


    live


    in Scarlet Vi, it would be fine. You can go wherever you want!”


    But unfortunately…
