Chapter 495 Bianca’s Situation
Heather was already furious.
When she heard Stephen’s assertion that Cedric intended to resolve his issues with Natalie in such a manner, she was beyond enraged..
“He must be out of his mind! Not to mention Kayla is still with him!”
Exactly.
Kayla!
Without a doubt, those close to Natalie knew that Kayla was a thorn on Natalie’s side. But at a time like this, Cedric’s desperation to lure Natalie back to him in such a manner was simply
madness.
“He’s panicking,” Stephen sighed.
Indeed.
Cedric was panicking.
With Natalie and Irwin suddenly disappearing from Wexford and the public announcement of their engagement, how could Cedric not be anxious?
Once upon a time, Natalie was within his grasp, whether it was for better or worse.
But now, things have changed.
The current Natalie was independent, making Cedric frantic.
“What good does panicking do him now? Where was he all this time?” Heather pressed on.
“Not to mention Isabella, but Kayla? Knowing how difficult it was for Nat, he still went ahead
with such actions.”
That was the most unforgivable part for Heather.
While the intricacies of their past love might remain a mystery to some, what role did Kayla play in all this?
That was what everyone couldn’t understand.
Stephen sighed deeply, “Let’s not dwell on that.”
Seeing his wife troubled for their children over the years weighed on his heart. She had enjoyed carefree days under his protection, and it was unforeseen that she would be worried

“I just hope Nat never forgives him,” Heather murmured with bitterness.
Men and women viewed things differently.
Stephen hoped for a quick resolution, but from Heather’s standpoint, Cedric’s actions were unforgivable.
So what if Natalie had given birth to Cedric’s child?
As Natalie’s mother, Heather couldn’t find it in her heart to forgive Cedric.
At Versant Villa, Zane had been extremely occupied lately. With clarity on the whereabouts of the missing half of the documents, the Entes family’s influence had begun to assert itself.
“Madam,” Sebastian called out as he approached.
“What is it?”
“Lord Zane tried calling you but couldn’t get through. He asked me to relay a message.”
“What did he say?”
“Prepare yourself for tonight. He’ll come to fetch you later, and you’ll both head to Entes
Manor.”
Upon hearing this, Bianca’s heart skipped a beat.
Entes Manor? The ancestral home of the Entes family?
Bianca had never considered setting foot there. Yet, upon hearing this news, a strange sensation tugged at her heart.
“Very well, I understand,” she managed to reply.
Her voice was tinged with apprehension, but she nodded at the butler.
Sebastian retreated, and Bianca headed upstairs.
Upon opening her wardrobe, neatly arranged clothes met her gaze–all tailored for her since her arrival. She had to admit that despite the transactional nature of her marriage to Zane, he had never mistreated her.
She chose a conservative black dress that exuded elegance and fit her perfectly. Though they hadn’t shared deep conversations during their time together, Bianca had a keen eye and could
tell that Zane was a strict man.
After applying a light touch of makeup, she heard Zane return. There was a unique elegance to him as he entered the room, capturing Bianca’s attention.
A faint smile was on his l*ps as he looked at her.
“I’m ready. Are we leaving now?” Bianca stood up and approached Zane. But just inches away, he reached out and pulled her into his arms,
