Chapter 595 You Never Were
The calmness in Natalie’s tone caused Cedric’s world to collapse in an instant.
His mind went blank as if his entire world had shattered.
This feeling was unbearable, and Cedric was now bearing everything that Natalie had once endured.
This woman had started out from hysteria to her current calmness when dealing with him. It happened because she must have accumulated enough disappointment and pain to reach such
a state.
“You’re not, Nat. You never were…”
She wasn’t and never had been.
Cedric knew very well who Natalie truly was. From the beginning, he recognized that she wasn’t a substitute for anyone.
Natalie smiled.
Everything before her eyes was black.
She couldn’t see anything. How could she see through people’s hearts?
She… couldn’t see.
Perhaps, when she wanted to see clearly in the past, she never really saw anything.

Then, Cedric replied, “I understand.”
Without waiting for the person to say anything else, he hung up.
The atmosphere in the dining room turned cold.
Lydia and Xyla exchanged glances, both looking at Natalie and Cedric with concern. Having spent so much time around Natalie, they naturally knew what kind of presence Kayla held between Cedric and Natalie and what it meant.
It was a

But with the news about Kayla….
What a headache!
As for Cedric…!
Forget about their past.
Right now, while Natalie was in the most difficult period of her life….
What would Cedric choose?
Would he choose to leave Natalie’s side?

Lydia and Xyla knew what would happen.
It was simple.
If Cedric chose to leave this time… the already challenging path between them would become.
