Chapter 555 Cedric’s Decision
Despite the situation in Wexford, Cedric still had to come to Simeria.
Apart from Natalie being the reason, it was also naturally because… of Luna!
After what happened the last time, there was no need for others to guess just what kind of presence he was in Luna’s heart.
Kyle took a deep breath. When he spoke, he couldn’t help the tightness in his voice.
“Did
you see Miss Luna?”
Luna…
Thinking of her reaction to him and how she had hid in Natalie’s arms…
Luna’s eyes had been filled with fear when she saw Cedric, and he felt more than just a suffocation in his chest.
He took several deep breaths, but it did little to quell the stifling sensation in his chest.
He moved to the nearby couch and lit a cigarette.
“Is there any news about that person?” he inquired gravely.
At Cedric’s words, Kyle promptly stepped forward, nodding. “Mr. Larkin is currently in Yuloria.

“Yuloria?”
“Yes, we’ve obtained his address. He’s been living in seclusion there for years.”
Edward Larkin!
He was a renowned figure and a medical practitioner with vast knowledge and experience. After retiring from Wexford International Hospital at the age of seventy, he vanished without
a trace.
During his prime, securing an appointment with him was nearly impossible. However, it was said that any patient he treated would eventually see the light again, regardless of the cause of their blindness.
Cedric was well aware of Edward’s existence.
He had once considered taking Isabella to him. However, Edward had already retired by then, and his whereabouts were unknown.
But now, they had found Edward!

Having come from another life with Natalie, Cedric knew better than anyone else what Natalie
feared most–darkness.
It was this fear that had kept her from undergoing surgery all these years.
Even if her vision remained blurred, she refused the operation!
The thought of potential surgical failure terrified her, as it would condemn her to eternal darkness.
Having experienced such profound darkness and the accompanying helplessness and agony, how could she willingly subject herself to that again?
Despite having numerous family members by her side, Natalie remained resolute in her fear.
Darkness was terrifying to a person.
And to Natalie, darkness wasn’t just an inconvenience. It symbolized an overwhelming vulnerability, especially during perilous times!
“Should we inform Mr. Yarbrough?” Kyle looked at Cedric and asked.
Edward was crucial to Natalie right now. It was essential to get to him as soon as possible, especially since Natalie’s vision was rapidly deteriorating.
However, Cedric shook his head decisively. “That won’t be necessary.‘
Kyle paused for a moment, clearly puzzled by Cedric’s response. “Then what…?”
Wasn’t this a hard–won opportunity?
Shouldn’t they let Clyde take Natalie to see this individual immediately, considering Natalie’s deteriorating condition?
After all, with Edward’s advanced age, time was of the essence!
Cedric glanced at Kyle and said, “I’ll take her myself.”
At this revelation, Kyle felt his ch*st tighten.
“But… Your Excellency, things in Wexford are-
“Go back with Lucas. I’ll take her to Yuloria,” Cedric interrupted Lucas before the latter could finish speaking.
It was evident that Cedric intended to personally accompany Natalie to find this renowned doctor in Yuloria.
He wanted to witness her recovery with his own eyes.
The trip to Yuloria would undoubtedly be time–consuming.

Given all the past events concerning Natalie, Kyle had often thought Cedric was too indifferent.
Why would he…?!
After experiencing so many things and knowing all that he knew, how could Cedric still hurt her so much?!
Yet, looking at Cedric now, Kyle realized that perhaps Cedric was merely struggling with a life- altering decision at a critical moment.
