Chapter 517 No Wonder You Were So Indifferent
Cedric stared at Natalie.
There was something shattered deep within his eyes! His heart was in turmoil, as if a storm had erupted inside!
She knew… she knew all of it!
When Casey went to Terra Manor, Irwin had already taken her away.
In fact, Cedric knew back then…!
He knew she would find out eventually. Being around Irwin, nothing was certain.
And in Wexford, she… would come to know about that matter!
It all circled back to the fact that she got entangled in the affairs of Wexford.
After what felt like an eternity, Cedric managed to gather his thoughts and looked at Natalie, murmuring, “Nat…!”
“The resemblance is uncanny, isn’t it?” Natalie said, observing the pale–faced man across
from her, with a storm raging in her mind.
Ten years!
A decade of feelings…!
Who could have imagined that the one who once held her dear was merely in love with the idea of her, a mere shadow?
Because of their uncanny resemblance, he could still hold her close, even if she was just a
shadow.
Cedric remained silent, his gaze fixed on Natalie.
He tried to speak, but words failed him at this moment. He was overwhelmed by the storm in her eyes!
The smirk on Natalie’s lips deepened, and a sarcastic glint flashed in her eyes.
“I think so too,” she remarked.
Cedric felt his heart, already in turmoil, tighten at her words.
An explanation…
Yes, he wanted to explain.
He wanted to tell her that things weren’t as they seemed. But as he looked into her icy eyes,

There was no way out, not when her gaze spoke volumes.
Any explanation seemed futile!
Yet, in Natalie’s eyes, Cedric appeared not just indifferent but outright dismissive of their shared past.
Such an attitude only confirmed her worst fears.
In his heart, she was, after all, just a shadow.
Facing this reality wasn’t as emotionally taxing for him as one might think. Instead, all she felt was an overwhelming chill!
Natalie’s voice grew icy cold. “No wonder you were so indifferent!”
Whether in the past life or this one, this sense of indifference wasn’t just directed towards her but also towards… their child!
The thought of him willingly using Luna to save Kayla made Natalie feel a chilling suffocation in her heart.
Cedric remained silent, and his eyes widened upon hearing Natalie’s words.
He finally managed to say, “It’s not what you think.”
In this context, his words sounded feeble and hollow.
“Not what I think?” Natalie laughed bitterly. Rising from her seat, she continued, “I don’t care if you’re indifferent or not, Cedric. But if you dare harm Luna or me, I swear…”
As she spoke, a cold fury surged in Natalie’s eyes. Cedric felt his heart being entirely hollowed out. Before he could utter a word, Natalie cut in sharply, “I will tear you to pieces with my bare
hands!”
With those final words hanging in the air, Natalie turned on her heel and left with a chilling
demeanor.
Cedric remained seated on the wicker chair, lost in his thoughts for what felt like an eternity.
She knew.
She knew everything!
When did it start?
When did he start worrying about her finding out about Blair?
Yet, inevitably, she had found out.

And the moment she did, everything spiraled out of control.
His Natalie had never been this out of control before.
Yes… ever since he met Natalie, Cedric had been certain that she was the woman his heart yearned for.
He had vowed to protect her at all costs.
But now…
Why had things turned out this way?
When Irwin arrived, Cedric was still seated on that wicker chair.
“Are you satisfied now?”
