Chapter 212 His Love 

Cedric’s projects abroad?! 

Natalie hadn’t been aware of those before but realized how deep Cedric’s roots had gone since this 

incident. 

In just one day, such a thing happened on her side. Natalie genuinely worried about Stephen’s situation. 

She couldn’t help but ask, “You won’t have any problems on your end, right?” 

“No.” 

“Has Cedric done anything to you?” 

“No.” 

Hearing this, Natalie breathed a sigh of relief. 

Despite being in a state of mutual destruction, she was genuinely concerned about Stephen. 

With Cedric’s intense hatred towards her, no one knew what crazy actions he might take. 

Christina’s situation this time was unexpected. 

She was always cautious, but this time…! 

The bank records and the timing matched up. During the questioning, she claimed to be running errands 

for her mother and herself, but she couldn’t produce any evidence. 

Consequently, her inconsistent statements raised suspicion. 

Inside the detention center, Christina shouted frantically, “I want to see my lawyer. I want to see my 

brother!” 

“Ms. Johnson!” 

“I don’t know anything. I don’t know anything.” 

At this moment, Christina finally realized that, in this critical situation, the only thing she could say was 

that she didn’t know. 

“But you signed all these documents.”

Christina was silent. 

“You have to take responsibility for what you said!” 

“I don’t know anything. I don’t know anything!” 

Now, no matter what the police said, Christina only repeated this sentence. 

Waiting had become her only option. 

She knew that Cedric wouldn’t ignore her like this, and she also believed that Rebecca would not let her 

stay here. 

So, she just needed to wait! 

Christina was now in trouble. 

Rebecca arrived early at the detention center the following day, but she wasn’t allowed to see Christina. 

After Natalie s call last night, many reporters had gathered here. They started speculating when they saw 

Rebecca. 

Being investigative–minded, they quickly dug up that Christina was inside. The entire Verde City knew now 

that Christina was inside, and they were speculating why. 

The situation escalated rapidly, intertwining Christina’s and Natalie’s affairs. Observant people could see 

that a conflict had erupted within the Johnson family. 

Even though Natalie has divorced Cedric, some people would inevitably link everything together when 

such incidents occur. 

At Radiant Tower, Cedric slammed the computer on his desk to the floor. 

He was filled with rage, a fury that seemed capable of consuming everything. 

Lucas and Yuvan were wailing on the side. 

“Where is she?” 

Natalie! 

One had to admit, she was indeed bold! 

+15 BONUS 

Now, she was involved in all sorts of troubles, and even the relevant authorities wouldn’t let her leave 

Verde City! 

But precisely at this moment, she pulled Christina into the mess. 

The popularity she originally garnered from Sylvan Gems was now halved as Christina was also in the 

spotlight! 

Who was Christina? 

Everyone in Verde City tacitly understood that she was the adopted daughter of the Johnson family. She 

was observed by many eyes and envied by many. She was just an adopted daughter, yet she received endless favors from the Johnson family. 

Lucas noticed Yuvan’s lack of reaction and stepped forward. 

“When it was almost dawn, Ms. Walker went to the airport. Now she’s at the studio.” 

Zane was handling Sylvan Gems‘ affairs. 

Many things were still under investigation, and the truth would take time. Sylvan Gems‘ matter couldn’t be 

rushed, but the situation at the studio was different. 

With the significant incident in the eastern suburbs, she was under immense pressure. If this matter was 

indeed related to her, the challenges ahead would be substantial. 

Natalie understood clearly which side held more weight in this situation. 

“How’s the eastern suburbs?” Cedric inquired. 

Upon hearing this question, Lucas‘ eyes dimmed. He replied, “Ms. Frazier was there last night.” 

Cedric fell silent, and the air around turned cold. However, a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his 

mouth. 

Yesterday, Irwin had challenged him, claiming that he would interfere in Natalie’s affairs. 

Cedric wanted to see how he would manage it during this critical moment! 

Just as Cedric was contemplating, his phone vibrated. 

It was a call from Rebecca. 

Answering the call, he said, “Hello.” 

“Ced, what’s going on? Why are such statements circulating? Tina isn’t that kind of person.”

Rebecca sounded anxious. 

Clearly, she didn’t expect that when she went to ch*ck on Christina in the morning and planned to bring her back, such a thing would happen. 

Cedric had seen the news. 

He told Rebecca, “I’ll handle it. You go back first.” 

“But Tina…” Rebecca’s voice was filled with concern. 

Before Cedric could speak, she continued, “You know, ever since Tina arrived at the Johnson family, I’ve always indulged and pampered her.” 

Cedric stayed silent. 

“This time… 

she was still thinking that if t 

Last night, she was still thinking that if the matter wasn’t related to Christina, it could serve as a lesson 

for Christina consistently going against Natalie. 

If it was connected, then surely…! 

But now, with things reaching this point and Cedric unable to resolve the situation, she became anxious. 

After all, Tina was a child she had raised. While others were trying to console her, she grew increasingly infuria 

Yet, when waiting alone for Christina, she couldn’t bear it. 

“I understand.” 

“Make sure to resolve it quickly! It’s been a whole night…” 

were mainly about t 

At other times, Rebecca’s concerns were mainly about the impact on the Johnson family. 

However, she now genuinely felt heartbroken for Christina. 

Regardless, she would have to walt until Christina returned before discussing it. Having her in that place was genuinely worrisome. 

She felt tense all over. After hanging up the phone, a flerce glint flashed in Cedric’s eyes. 

“Yuyan!” 

“Yes, Mr. Johnson.” Yuvan respectfully stepped forward.

Cedric glanced at him with sharp eyes.

“Earlier, Bianca was deeply involved in a lawsuit that even implicated her chastity. Do you know how to 

handle it?” 

“Yes.” 

“Go!” 

“Yes, sir!” 

Yuvan nodded, respectfully turning away. At that moment, a chilling light flickered in his eyes. 

When only Cedric and Lucas remained, Lucas approached Cedric. He was slightly stunned at what he had 

just witnessed. 

“Sir, Ms. Sanders is just Ms. Walker’s friend. She’s-” 

“Innocent?” Cedric interrupted Lucas before he could finish his sentence.
