At this moment, she stood at the doorstep. She pressed the doorbell repeatedly, but no
answer.
Looking at the dark vi with no lights, she realized that Irwin probably hadn’t arrived yet.
As the cold wind blew, she felt a chill running through her b*dy. Taking out her phone, she dialed Irwin’s
number.
Beep!
The phone rang continuously until it automatically hung up, and still no one answered.
Natalie adjusted her coat. Suddenly, there was a weight on her shoulder. It was Leon!
“It’s quite cold.”
A ck windbreaker draped over her, and he said, “It’s quite cold.”
The man didn’t say much, and Natalie nodded without refusing. She was indeed feeling cold; perhaps it
was due to changes in her b*dy.
During this period, she would shiver at the slightest breeze.
In her previous life, Scarlet Vi went up in mes shortly after she learned about her pregnancy.
Looking back now, she had already forgotten what it felt like for a woman to be pregnant.
But now, she could feel the changes in her b*dy.
Natalie called repeatedly, but Irwin didn’t answer. Natalie stood at his vi gate for a full two hours. Her
b*dy was getting stiff from the cold, and the man she had an appointment with hadn’t returned.
Leon stayed by her side, watching her shiver even with his coat wrapped around her.
He rarely spoke but finally couldn’t help but say, “Let’s go back, alright?”
“Leon!”
“Yes, ma’am”
“Find out where he is!”
Natalie’s voice trembled, partly from the cold.
Irwin was not someone who would break his word. If they had an appointment, he wouldn’t just fail to
return.

Leon nodded. He took out his phone, and made a call. After waiting for about five minutes, the

“Miss, half an hour ago, Mr. Frazier was forcibly put on a ne by Master Frazier’s people.”
Natalie was silent.
He went abroad?!

Natalie’s face turned pale, and she closed her eyes. At this moment, her already cold b*dy seemed to
freezepletely.
With the situation in the eastern suburbs, it was clear that things were moreplicated than she
thought,
Looking at Leon, she said in a trembling voice, “I understand.”
It was good that he left. Cedric was acting like a madman now, and she was involved in both the
incidents in Sylvan Gems and the eastern suburbs.
Now, Isabe had moved into Scarlet Vi, and she was getting engaged to Cedric
Each of these seemed like the actions of a lunatic!
Natalie didn’t know how to describe Cedric anymore; she only wished to have no connection with him.
She turned around to get into the car. When Leon started the car, he couldn’t help but nce at
Natalie.
“Did you ever exin things to Mr. Johnson?”
People on Natalie’s side knew exactly who Natalie was. Regardless of the public opinion, they

Leon’s responsibility was solely to protect Natalie. He never casually asked questions or made.
comments about her affairs, but everything happening in Verde City and on Natalie herself was
undoubtedly orchestrated by Cedric.
In a short period, Cedric had created aplex trap for Natallo, making it difficult for her to escape.

Natalie bitterly smiled. “I’ve exined too much, and I’ve be numbl
Investigate anything anymore.
The man wouldn’t believe her, and she couldn’t be bothered to investigate anything anymore.

Why didn’t she investigate Christina?
Because of Isabe!
If Isabe was causing trouble with Cedric now, Christina definitely wouldn’t let it go.
In Natalie’s eyes, the Johnson family was like a homet’s nest. She could already guess that it had been

Given enough time, the truth would surface. By then, Cedric’s world would have nothing to do with her.
Rather than personally dealing with those people for him, she’d rather leave it to him to enjoy the rest
of
his life!
She wished for Cedric’s world to burn to ashes!
By the time she returned to her own vi, it was already past ten.
Leon had informed the kitchen in advance, so some warm dishes were prepared for Natalie. They had
prepared some light dishes that were easy on the stomach.
Natalie took a sip of the soup, and her stomach churned ufortably. Seeing Natalie’s difort,
Nigel approached with concern.
“Is it not to your liking?”
“It’s fine.” Natalie shook her head.
She knew why she felt ufortable. The taste she had never experienced in her past life was now
vividly felt in this life.
After making an effort to take another sip, she couldn’t bear it any longer.
She rushed to the bathroom and threw up

She threw up almost all the soup she had drank. She felt extremely bloated.
At this moment, Natalie also felt the greatness of being a mother. To give birth to a child… women had

Her previous self probably never thought she would ever experience this!
She suddenly thought of her mother…!
Did her mother endure so much pain to give birth to her?
Her mind gradually cleared.
The more sober she became, the more she hated her father…!
Why did women have to go through all this?
The hatred she had for her father, for Isabe’s mother, for Isabe…
There was no words to describe her feelings!
Natalie didn’t know how she came out of the bathroom.

“Leon!”
“Yes, ma’am.” Leon respectfully approached.
Natalie looked at him with a somewhat badplexion and said, “Come with me to the study.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
A lot ofmotion and rumors about her and Stephen were circting outside. Even so, the people in
Elegance Bay always treated Natalie with utmost respect.
They didn’t form opinions based on external rumors. This ce was Natalie’s sanctuary.
Cedric had once said that Natalie’s home was wherever he was. However, that home was now
upied
by another woman.
The notion of a home was shattered when Isabe moved into Scarlet Vi.
Now, this ce was Natalie’s home.
In the study, Natalie nced at Leon and said, “Do you have relevant resources?”
“Miss, what do you mean?”
“I want to investigate someone,”
It was regarding the matter she had assigned to a private detective earlier. Originally, when Cedric
didn’t
Now, after the recent incident in the bathroom, she found a renewed purpose in pursuing it.
The things rted to Christina must also be connected to Isabe!
She… was blind and has paid the price for her misdeeds!
However, Natalie had overlooked one thing before.
Isabe came for revenge against her mother. In that case, how could she easily let it go?
