Chapter 573 It’s No Longer Just Me
When Natalie woke up the next morning, the rain was still dripping steadily on the roof. It was still falling after an entire night.
The warmth beside her remained…!
When Cedric heard movement, he hugged her and asked, “Are you awake?”
“Get off me!”
She had been unable to resist falling asleep last night, but why was Cedric still here?!
He was so shameless…!
But as Natalie moved, Cedric gripped her hand tightly and said, “Don’t move. It’s cold!”
When Natalie extended her arm out of the blanket, she indeed felt a chill.
In Yuloria, people often said it was very comfortable during the summer. That was because the courtyard houses were built with stones, which provided good insulation.
It would be warm in winter but cool in summer…!
Cedric got up and said, “Don’t move.‘
In contrast to Natalie’s irritability, his tone was full of patience, as if they hadn’t had such moments in a very long time.
Cedric seemed to treasure this time with Natalie.
Natalie was immediately upset!
“Are you getting up? Let me help you get dressed.”
“Lydia will do that!”
Natalie’s temper was already bad because she couldn’t see, and now this man kept pestering her…!
It made her patience wear thin.
“Lydia and Xyla are out,” Cedric replied.
Out? That was impossible!
Lydia and Xyla knew that Natalie hated interacting with Cedric. So, no matter how busy they were, one of them would always stay behind to help her.
“Cedric!” Natalie’s tone got more serious.

However, seemingly oblivious to the irritation in her voice, Cedric continued, “It’s okay if you don’t want to get up. I’ll stay with you a little longer.”
Natalie remained silent.
At this moment, she couldn’t see the expression on her face, but she could feel it turning ashen in Cedric’s teasing words!
In the end, she allowed Cedric to dress her. Although this trip felt rushed for Natalie, Cedric was well–prepared. Considering the local climate, he had especially brought plenty of clothes for Natalie.
After putting on the clothes, Natalie felt much warmer.
“Do you like this feeling, Nat?”
“No!”
How could she possibly like it?
Who did he think he was…?!
“I was talking about the feeling of living in a house like this,” Cedric elaborated.
Natalie fell silent.
“Did you think I was talking about something else?”
This man…!
No matter how calm Natalie usually was, Cedric managed to make her somewhat impatient
now.
This damn man!
This house…!
When she had once heard about what it felt like to live in a house like this, Natalie was
particularly eager to try it.
But this time was different.
Probably due to her physical condition, she felt uncomfortable after staying here. No matter how much she liked it, her liking for it would diminish once her b*dy couldn’t bear it.
“Nat?”
“I don’t like it!”
Cedric was silent.
