    Chapter 488 Things Are Getting Serious


    After leaving the banquet, Cedric immediately parted ways with Abigail.


    As he got into his car, Lucas delivered some unsettling news.


    He pulled irritably at his tie, frustration evident in his eyes!


    He had to admit that Natalie had really given him such a grand “gift“!


    The Schneider family…!


    He clenched both fists tightly, his knuckles cracking.


    “So, Casey has discovered everything?” Cedric queried..


    “Yes, he has located Aspen from that incident at the Redwood Slope,” Lucas replied with a grave tone.


    Aspen was the person most significant to that woman… After she was gone, Cedric had dealt with


    everyone around her.


    However, Aspen was the exception.


    If there was anyone left from back then, it was Aspen.


    Unexpectedly…!


    “Clyde’s people are indeed cunning, just as the rumors suggest,” Cedric expressed, his tone tinged


    with underlying irritation.


    Aspen must be nearing forty by now. After leaving Redwood Slope, Aspen traveled to various ces.


    Cedric had thought it would be difficult for Casey to find out… but who would have thought she would


    be able to locate Aspen?


    “Does Irwin know about this?” Cedric asked, visibly vexed.


    Lucas replied, “Have you forgotten? When Madam wasn’t pleased, Mr. Frazier’s people distanced


    themselves from Casey.”


    “That sly old fox,” Cedric muttered, his irritation deepening.


    In the confined space, the tension was palpable.

    Casey…!


    It was undeniable that she now possessed knowledge of things she shouldn’t be aware of.


    Lucas looked at Cedric with concern. “So, what’s our next move?”

    Dn nodded in acknowledgment but offered a cautionary reminder, “If Casey knows, then Mr.


    Yarbrough probably knows as well.”


    After all, they were Clyde’s men, and that came with its own set of implications and dangers.


    The implication was ringly clear.


    While Cedric may be unsure of what to do about Casey, what about Clyde? Who would dare to make a


    move on him?


    Regardless, Natalie would inevitably find out sooner orter.


    Taking a deep breath, Irwin’s eyes shimmered with profound understanding. “In that case, we can only


    watch and wait.”


    Dn nodded in agreement.


    “Actually, it might be for the best if she knows,” Irwin mused.


    Dn responded with evident concern in his voice, “If she finds out, she’ll be…”


    Given the significant “gift” Natalue had sent Cedric upon her arrival in Wexford, it was clear. what would


    happen if she discovered the truth now.


    The resentment Natalie already harbored towards the situation would only intensify…!


    What kind of situation would unfold in Wexford if that happened?


    What hidden power was concealed in its seemingly inconspicuous framework? To think that such a


    lavish “gift” as the Schneider family would be presented to Cedric was perplexing.


    At this point, a deep worry crossed Irwin’s eyes. Natalie had never been a straightforward entity in their


    world.


    Initially, Cedric had provided her with a simple environment, like a bird trapped in a cage. Under the


    right circumstances, she would have remained content within those confines.


    However, she had already incinerated her gilded cage after enduring so much.


    “Make sure Cedric is informed,” Irwin finally broke the silence, emphasizing his point. Dn instantly


    grasped Irwin’s intent and nodded in acknowledgment, “Understood!”
