    Chapter 422 Unbridgeable Differences


    Cedric stared at the Natalie before him, feeling as if she had be aplete stranger.


    It was as if she no longer cared about anything at all.


    Once, she had cared for nothing but him.


    But what about now?


    “Then what matters to you? The child you have with Caleb?”


    Yes, Caleb’s child.


    Witnessing her tenderness and affection for the child, no one would believe she was indifferent.


    Natalie looked at him, her eyes shimmering with cold light.


    “And what matters to you?” she retorted.


    “You…”


    “Once it was Isabe, now it’s Isabe’s daughter! I’m no longer the most important person to you. Do


    you still harbor the illusion that you can upy that special ce in my heart as you once did in the


    past?”


    The air turned still, a chilling silence enveloping them.


    In the past…!


    Now, memories of the past felt suffocating.


    In those seven years, they had been inseparable.


    Yet, who could have foreseen the rift that woulde after marriage?


    Indeed, the heart has two chambers–one for happiness and one for sorrow.


    And for them, happiness had been overwhelmed by sorrow.


    Initially, happiness resonated loudly, but as time wore on, sorrow became hysterical.


    Now, the sorrow felt like a vast chasm, with those three years erecting walls that kept them apart.


    Do you really have no regard for those seven years?” Cedric’s voice trembled with suppressed


    emotion.


    Every time Natalle spoke so bluntly in his presence, It became clear to Cedric that in Natalle’s world, he


    Dionificance


    Those seven years seemed like a fleeting dream.


    “When you repeatedly chose Isabe, did you ever consider those seven years?” Natalie shot back


    sharply.


    Cedric stood rooted to the spot, trembling.


    His grip loosened, and Natalie effortlessly shook off his grip before moving inside. Her retreating figure


    appeared distant, emanating an unsettling coldness.


    It was suffocating to look at her.


    On the couch, Ka held a little pig in her arms.


    Natalie wondered where Cedric got it from. It looked exactly like Ginger!


    At that moment, Ka’s face, so reminiscent of Isabe, seemed to morph into the very woman’s


    features. In Natalie’s eyes, Ka’s timid gaze… seemed to instantly change into the defiant look that


    Isabe would give her.


    A chilling sensation surged through Natalie, prompting her to swiftly and forcefully grab the pig from


    Ka’s embrace.


    Without a word, she headed upstairs. Her actions had been swift and decisive.


    The moment Ka realized what happened, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.


    “Miss, please don’t cry,” Chloe, who was looking after Ka, felt a pang of sympathy.


    She increasingly felt that Natalie was so narrow–minded. How could Natalie not even amodate a


    child?


    Chloe wondered what had drawn Cedric to Natalie in the first ce. Now, that woman was living under


    the same roof and making everyone’s life miserable.


    Ka buried her face into Chloe’s embrace, sobbing uncontrobly.


    Shh, it’s okay. Please don’t cry, Miss!” Chloeforted.


    When Cedric walked in, he immediately sensed the tension. His face darkened instantly.


    What’s going on? His voice tightened as he approached Ka, wrapping her gently in his embrace.


    Casting a nce at Chloe, who hesitated. Cedric’s voice turned icy. “Speak.”


    was Madam Chice stammered.


    Hearing Natalie’s name, Ka’s tears flowed even more, her innocent eyes full of grievance. Cedric’s


    temple throbbed visibly.


    That woman!


    “Shh, it’s alright now,” he cooed to the tearful Ka, though internally, he was boiling with anger.


    Natalie was seriously…!


    He had never realized this side of Natalie, one that couldn’t even tolerate a child.


    “Daddy,” Ka whimpered, her voice choked with emotion.


    “I’m here,” Cedric assured her.


    “Mommy doesn’t like me. She took away my piggy,” Ka’s voice trembled with sorrow.


    The veins on Cedric’s forehead seemed to pulsate even more vigorously. By now, he had a good

    understanding of why Natalie had gotten angry.


    “Daddy will get you another one,” he promised.


    “Okay,” came Ka’s subdued reply, but the sorrow in her voice was obvious. The way she repressed


    her


    emotions tugged at one’s heartstrings.


    Finally calming the distraught child and heading upstairs, Cedric found Natalie lost in thought, cradling


    the pig on a chaise lounge.


    Taking a deep breath, he approached her. “So fond of this pig, aren’t you?”


    At his words, Natalie snapped back to reality in an instant.


    Natalie looked at the pig in her arms, a hint of ironic amusement curling her l*ps.


    “You always have a unique way of gifting,” she remarked.


    Was this his way of belittling someone?


    Was that why he gave such gifts?


    Cedric sat on the couch, lighting a cigarette and taking a deep drag.


    He spoke in a restrained tone, “I agreed to send her away, so why must you behave like this?


    paused, visibly taken aback,


    emotion shed in her eyes as she regarded Cedric. His sudden promation sounded


    Send Ka away?


    To Natalie, such a thing seemed impossible. But now Cedric… was iming he would do just that?


    “You’d send her away?” Natalie sarcastically questioned, her disbelief evident.


    Her initial reaction was one of disbelief.


    Now, it seemed even more improbable.


    After all, wasn’t Isabe immensely important to him?


    “Yes,” he confirmed.


    “Have you told her?” Natalie probed further.


    She was well aware of how clingy Ka was. Despite her resentment towards Isabe, Natalie couldn’t


    help but feel a tinge of pity, especially seeing the child’s innocent eyes.


    Thus, after enduring Ka’s presence, she decided to send her away.


    Undoubtedly, once Ka realized she’d be sent away, she wouldn’t remain as calm as Natalie had


    seen.


    Sure enough, a hint of internal struggle crossed Cedric’s eyes.


    “Nat…!”


    “If you can’t bear it, then don’t. As you said, she has no rtives in this world, and she’s so pitiful,”


    Natalie


    said.


    “What about you?”


    “Me?” Natalie found itughable at this point.


    She looked at Cedric and said sarcastically, “You seem troubled!”


    Look, the moment she spoke, he was tempted!


    It was evident how difficult this decision was for him.


    And hel


    Not only did he want to keep the child, but he also wanted Natalie to feel sorry for Ka, thus epting


    “It makes no difference to me whether you send her away or not. There was never anything between


    us,


    she dered, her words absolute and final.
