Chapter 228 All or Nothing
After all, Natalie had suffered enough.
So, before Cedric tried to establish such a rtionship with Isabe… Reba wouldn’t agree!
Even if Natalie wasn’t Stephen’s nice, Reba would still never agree to Isabe being her daughter–
in-
“She’s Ivan’s only sister in this world.”
“But there’s no need for you to dedicate your whole life to taking care of her!” Reba’s tone became
solemn.
Ivan’s sister?!
It was like a curse.
It lingered around the Johnson family and couldn’t be shaken off no matter what they did!!
Indeed, looking at it now, wasn’t it true?
“What other feelings do you want?” Cedric mocked, looking at Reba.
His gaze made Reba instantly uneasy. “What do you mean?”
The implication was that, after the incident with Natalie, he started to despise even the notion of
feelings.
After all, the ten years of emotions with Natalie proved to be unreliable.
So now… Was he implying that, without Natalie, it didn’t matter who he spent his days with?
Therefore, he would take care of Isabe?
Natalie was the root cause of his losing confidence in rtionships, and Isabe was his responsibility.
He didn’t love Isabe, but he had to take responsibility!
However, Reba couldn’t fathom this change.
Cedric loved Natalie, but he had to let go?!
“Ced.” When Reba spoke again, there was no tension In her tone,
only exasperation.
“Maybe there’s a misunderstanding about Nat’s situation. Look at her now…”
“I don’t know when it started, but you’ve been so protective of her!” Cedric interrupted, and Reba fell

Now, Reba’s heart was truly in turmoil. If she had known earlier that rejecting Natalie would
ultimately
result in having Isabe as a blind daughter–inw, she would have made sure Natalie and Cedric got
along well!
No matter what she said, she now only wanted Cedric and Natalie to get along well!
No, they would never get along, not with Isabe between them!
At this moment, Reba not only regretted her decision but also realized that Isabe was not a
simple
person.
“We’ll take good care of Isabe! Reba said with a slightly firm tone.
“Hah!”
Cedricughed mockingly, clearly aware of the situation when Reba deliberately kept Isabe away.
from him.
“I did it because…” Reba struggled to exin.
The gratitude she felt for Ivan, thanks to his sister, had beenpletely shattered.
“If possible, I really wish I had been the one to die for you back then. I wish I had died instead, okay?!”
If it were her, there would be no Ivan, and certainly no Isabe!
Upstairs, Christina looked at Isabe sitting in a wheelchair. A hint of malice shed in her eyes.
“You really have a way, huh?”
“You’re not a reliable partner! Isabe said with determination.
Christina’s already unpleasant expression now darkenedpletely.
She said viciously, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell Ced all about what you did to your sister?”

“Go ahead,” Isabe replied indifferently.
Christina fell silent. At this moment, Isabe acted as if she didn’t care about anything. It was as if
nothing mattered to her.

With fearless tones, Isabe continued, “Right now, I’m blind, penniless, and have nothing. What kind
of storm can I stir up?”
“You…
I
“Or do you want to tell your brother I schemed against Natalie? Did I calcte everything with my own
eyes? That I nned on living a lifetime of darkness?”
Christina remained silent.
So ruthless!
She wasn’t a good person, but at this moment, she couldn’t help but admit that Isabe was truly
ruthless, both to others and herself.
Isabe didn’t have a good ending now, as she would spend her whole life in darkness.
Was that why she was clinging to Cedric?
“I’ve already said that I’ll ensure you have a worry–free life forever. You can have anything you want,”
Christina said in a restrained tone.
If she could, she really wanted to tear Isabe apart!
They could have gotten along well! But Natalie, who Christina couldn’t get rid of, ruined everything
Yes… Before, Christina had secretly dealt with any woman who got close to Cedric
Only Natalie seemed like a solid presence. No matter what methods she used, she couldn’t drive her
away from Cedric, so she panicked.
Now, it was even worse.
Natalie was gone, but in her ce was a more difficult presence to deal with!
The mocking smile on Isabe’s l*ps was even more scornful.
She said, “Christina, I’ve seen the fates of those people. Compared to you, your brother is more
reliable.”
By Cedric’s side, she could enjoy the warmth of that man for a lifetime. She could also receive good
care.
That was a truly worry–free living, right?
“As for Natalie now, I don’t need to do anything more. Your brother will take care of
“Are you burning the bridges now that you’ve gotten what you want?” Christina hissed.

She was close to screaming in Isabe’s face!
“Compared to you, what I’ve done is nothing. How many bridges have you burned?”
“You…”
“What do you think? Between you and me, who does your brother trust more?”
“What do you mean?”
why not give it a try?”
“You…”
For the first time, Christina felt the terror of this woman. Even a simple smile on her l*ps seemed to
carry the terrifying aura of hell.
Downstairs, Reba was desperately trying to persuade Cedric
Suddenly, a miserable scream echoed throughout the house.
“Ahhh…!”
This scream instantly interrupted the two
Cedric was sitting on the sofa. He immediately shot up the stairs when he heard the scream!
Reba’s heart tightened as she quickly followed after him.
“N–no! l–it wasn’t me, Ced…!LL
Christina’s voice of panicked exnation followed,
The s
scene was chaotic. Isabey on the ground, her wheelchair toppled to the side. The disorderly
aftermath revealed the intensity of the situation just now.
Cedric shot Christina a fierce re and walked swiftly toward Isabe. He picked her up from the
ground.
At this moment, Isabe was pale and shivering in Cedric’s arms. She had clearly been quite
frightened.
Christina watched Isabe’s exaggerated act and felt the urge to tear her apart. However, seeing the
severity on Cedric’s face, she trembled, and any words she intended to say were forcibly swallowed.
Looking at Reba with,a look of grievance, Christina said, “Mom!”

This was the first time… Yes, the first time Christina was on the receiving end of such a look from
Cedric.
He was the man she admired, and this gaze was more unbearable than being tortured!
After giving Isabe a fierce look, she ran out crying!
Scarlet Vi was now inplete chaos.
Meanwhile, Natalie had arrived at Elegance Bay. Instead of going straight to her ce, she went to
Irwin’s residence!
