Chapter 412 Chaos Unleashed 

Cedric frowned. 

Before he could speak, Natalie harshly placed her utensils on the table after taking a bite of her scrambled eggs. 

In that instant, anyone could sense Natalie’s displeasure from the noise she made. 

“What’s wrong now?” Cedric’s heart raced, thumping loudly. 

“It lacks salt!” 

Natalie was particular about how scrambled eggs were prepared. If the flavor was even slightly off, she found it unbearable. 

“Just eat it as it is. They didn’t know you’d come today,” Cedric replied. 

“Just eat it as it is?!” At those words, Natalie shot Cedric a cold, sarcastic glance, pursing her l*ps tightly. The intensity of her gaze was enough to make Kayla feel uneasy, as if Natalie might erupt like a volcano at any moment. 

Cedric felt a headache coming on, and his forehead throbbed. He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the turmoil in his heart. 

“Have the kitchen prepare another one. Don’t add sugar to the milk, and sprinkle some salt at the bottom of the pan before scrambling the egg” 

“Yes, sir!” 

Chloe glanced at Natalie, clearly surprised that this woman held such a high place in Cedric’s 

heart. 

Otherwise, how could this situation have arisen? 

She then looked at Kayla, who was hiding beside Cedric, her eyes full of pity. 

With a mother like Natalie, how would Kayla’s days ahead be? 

Soon enough, the kitchen acted swiftly and presented Natalie’s breakfast. The milk was too warm and lacked the right texture. The scrambled eggs were oversalted. 

In the past, Natalie might have borne with it, especially in Cedric’s presence. But now, she aggressively slammed her fork onto the plate. 

“What now?” Cedric asked. 

“You eat It!” Natalie snapped. 

Cedric felt as if he were about to explode. 

+25 BONUS 

Undoubtedly, Natalie’s current temperament was intolerable to anyone. It had only been a short while since Natalie arrived, but Kayla looked terrified and pale. 

“Kayla,” Cedric tried to soothe her with a gentle voice, reminiscent of the tenderness he once showed Isabella. 

As Natalie went upstairs, she heard the man’s gentle tone. 

How ironic was this?! 

“Daddy.” Kayla weakly called out, trembling with anxiety. 

“It’s okay. She’s just grumpy from waking up on the wrong side of the bed,” Cedric reassured. 

The dining room fell silent. 

Did people act so terrifying when they woke up from the wrong side of the bed? 

Kayla was undoubtedly frightened. 

Natalie’s suitcase was placed in Cedric’s room. He had expected resistance from her about this living arrangement. However, she accepted it willingly. 

But then… 

She threw all of Cedric’s belongings out of the room! 

As Cedric tried to comfort Kayla downstairs, a shout echoed from upstairs, “Madam, what are you doing?!” 

Cedric and Kayla exchanged a glance. In the chaos of the morning, anxiety flickered in the young girl’s eyes. 

“Shh, it’s okay,” Cedric reassured, trying to keep a calm demeanor. “Eat your breakfast. I’ll drop you off at school later.” 

Without waiting for Kayla’s response, Cedric swiftly ascended the stairs. 

Upon reaching the landing, Cedric’s anger surged at the sight of his belongings strewn across the hallway. His vision darkened, rage consuming him. 

Natalie Walker!” He hissed through clenched teeth. 

The joy he felt seeing her with her suitcase earlier now seemed like a distant memory, replaced by sheer madness at the current scene. 

The household staff watched nervously from the sidelines. Some contemplated intervening but hesitated, fearing Natalie’s formidable demeanor. 

Bang 

Suddenly, a loud crash echoed as something hit the wall. 

It seemed Natalie was on a rampage. 

Cedric gritted his teeth as he entered, observing Natalie’s reckless actions, flinging items from 

cabinets. 

“Stop this madness!” he roared, seizing objects from her grasp. 

Cedric had always been meticulous, a stickler for order. Seeing the chaos Natalie had wrought 

upon 

his sanctuary obliterated all his restraint. 

This woman was becoming more outrageous! 

“Why? Isn’t this where I’ll be staying?” Natalie retorted, defiantly throwing a glance. 

“Yes! So?” 

“Then it’s fine, isn’t it? I dislike rooms cluttered with another’s possessions.” 

Another’s possessions?! 

His heart ached at her words, especially when he knew she was referring to him! 

They used to be so close, but now… 

How had they grown so distant? 

“Nat!” Cedric choked out, struggling to find the right words. 

She smirked, meeting his intense gaze. 

“You don’t get it, do you?” she taunted, her voice dripping with underlying meaning. “I’ve never been one for hand–me–downs.” 

His entire being tensed. 

“What are you implying?” Cedric’s voice wavered, even though he knew precisely what she 

meant. 

What did she know? 

She knew nothing! 

“You know,” Natalie replied coldly, a glint of challenge in her eyes. 

“Things between Isabella and me weren’t what you think! How many times do I have to tell you, Natalie?” Cedric exclaimed. 

Whatever relationship you had with her means nothing to me now!” 

“You !” 

Crash! 

Before Cedric could finish his sentence, Natalie hurled an object outwards. 

Cedric was speechless. 

Confronted by Natalie’s icy demeanor, many of Cedric’s retorts were stifled and swallowed 

back down. 

What could he say now? 

What was there left to say? 

Eventually, Cedric left. 

Listening to the fading roar of the engine outside, Natalie relaxed. As the door closed, she slumped weakly to the ground. 

Was it too much? 

She grappled with this question internally, but the answer was resolute–It was not too much! 

The staff promptly moved Cedric’s belongings to another room. 

Later that morning, Natalie received a call from Caleb. 

His voice was laced with surprise as he asked, “You moved to Peach Garden!?” 

“Caleb, leave Simeria.” 

“You…!” 

“Involving yourself will only bring harm. I don’t want you dragged into this mess. Can’t you just leave?” 

Yes, leave! 

Natalie didn’t want to entangle Caleb further in this matter. 

There was a pause on the other end of the line before Caleb asked, “Is that child really Isabella’s daughter?” 

Upon hearing this, Natalie closed her eyes 

“Yes,” she finally responded. 

to hide the myriad of emotions. 

Kayla was Isabella’s child, and Cedric was still trying to force Natalie to accept her. 

What right did he have? 

Caleb was stunned. “Then why are you…?” 

Natalie interrupted, “What happened between him and me has nothing to do with anyone else. It needs to be sorted out.” 

Indeed, things between them needed to be dealt with, irrespective of anyone else. 

In that instant, Caleb understood.
