How long had it been since Natalie heard that name?
The name made her three years of marriage with Cedric agonizing! The name of the woman who
constantly suppressed her!
Rebecca had always compared her to those other women and was never satisfied with anything
Natalie did...!
How long had it been?
Ever since the fire at the detention center years ago, Natalie hadn't seen Rebecca. Natalie never
bothered to inquire about where she had been or how she was doing all these years.
After all, Rebecca was an insignificant existence in Natalie's life now!
With the end of her relationship with Cedric, these people had become her past completely.
But she never expected them to come back.
Why was Rebecca here?
"What does she want?" Natalie took a deep breath, feeling a bit dizzy. Obviously, even now, Natalie
wasn't too keen on facing the topic of Rebecca.
The servant replied, "It's because of Mr. Johnson's disappearance!"
With Cedric leaving Wexford and disappearing without a trace, such significant news was known
everywhere. No matter where Rebecca e was, she would also naturally know. She must have been
frantic looking for Cedric these past few days.
That was why Rebecca was here!
Natalie never wanted to see Rebecca again, and Rebecca probably had the same idea, right?
If it weren't for Cedric going missing, Rebecca probably would never want to see Natalie, right?
"I got it," Natalie said before hanging up the phone.
Originally, she was going back to Lotus Villa, but now, she obviously wouldn't! Turning back, she
glanced toward the stairs where Irwin had already gone upstairs.
Natalie stood alone and contemplated!
In the end, she returned to Hillside Villa.
Meanwhile, Rebecca was having a conversation with the Jarvis family.
Heather's expression was unpleasant as she coldly said, "You should leave. She won't see you...!"
"Mrs. Jarvis, you're also a mother! I think you should be able to understand my feelings!" Rebecca said
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith suppressed emotions.
Rebecca had known...!
She had known Natalie's identity for a long time, and she even made concessions regarding Cedric
and Natalie's relationship. However, Rebecca never expected to receive such news when she finally
settled down to enjoy her later years...
Her son had disappeared from Wexford!
What did that mean?
Back then, when Cedric went into prison for Natalie's sake, Rebecca felt as if her heart bled!
At that time, she had decided...
If Cedric came out of prison and pulled himself together, she wouldn't care about the reason.
Even if he did it for Natalie's sake...
She would forget about everything and no longer involve herself in their affairs.
Yes!
That was Rebecca's concession.
She would step back and give them their space. That was what she would have done!
But now...
What was going on?
Her heart ached terribly!
When Heather heard Rebecca's words about how she should understand as she was also a mother,
her already uneasy heart grew even more tumultuous.
She picked up the teacup and splashed the liquid onto Rebecca's face!
"Understand? You want me to understand a woman who tortured my daughter and treated her as an
outsider after marrying into your family?!"
How could Heather possibly understand such a person?
How dare Rebecca ask for Heather's understanding? Did she have the right?!
Rebecca felt the cold sensation on her face. Suddenly, she looked even more disheveled than before.
However, even in such a state, she didn't have the right to blame Heather.
Rebecca took several deep breaths and said, "Please... let me see Natalie."
Rebecca had never imagined that she would one day have such difficulty meeting Natalie. But who
could she blame for all of this? It was all her own doing that led to this point!
"She won't see you. Leave!"
Heather was utterly blunt. She knew what Rebecca meant to Natalie. Now that all of this had become a
thing of the past for her, Heather wouldn't let Natalie see these people who haunted her like
nightmares!
Indeed!
To Natalie, Rebecca and the others were like nightmares.
Heather truly cared for her daughter. So, no matter what happened, she wouldn't let Rebecca see
Natalie.
"Mrs. Jarvis!"
"You've been trying to climb the peak while pushing others down. What right do you have to see her?"
In the past, Rebecca had looked down on Natalie so much. Now, Heather wanted to make her feel
completely outclassed.
Rebecca's expression changed slightly.
Heather's words were sharp, leaving her speechless.
After taking several deep breaths, Rebecca couldn't suppress the anger in her heart any longer. That
anger burst out like a broken dam.
"I just want to see her once!"
Just once is enough!
Rebecca's restrained tone indicated that her emotions had reached their limit.
Without waiting for Heather to respond, Rebecca continued, "Right now, I have nothing. Do you
understand?!"
Indeed!
Rebecca had nothing left.
Her son was missing, and Christina was still in prison. No matter what methods Rebecca used, she
couldn't get her out.
Heather responded without hesitation, "Your loss has nothing to do with me. There's no reason for me
to sympathize with you, right?"
"Why can't you put yourself in my shoes and imagine if you had nothing?"
"I'm not like you! I don't need to put myself in your shoes!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWho did Rebecca think she was?
When Rebecca had everything, she was extremely arrogant.
Even if Heather hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she could tell from Natalie's demeanor what kind of
suffering Natalie had endured in the Johnson family.
No mother could forgive someone who hurt their child. Heather already owed her children so much, so
she wouldn't compromise in this matter.
Rebecca looked at Heather in anguish.
"I just want to know...!"
"She doesn't know where Cedric went! That's the only answer you'll get even if you meet her!"
"I..."
"You don't need to hear it from her mouth!" Heather sharply interrupted Rebecca's words.
Rebecca fell silent.
At that moment, her already poor complexion turned even more lifeless.
Natalie didn't know?
Then... did no one know where Cedric was?!
Was this the result of Rebecca's neglect?
How could this happen?
"It was Natalie, wasn't it?"
Rebecca's tone was initially pleading, but now it turned sharp.
She looked at Heather with malice!
Rebecca had been aware of what happened in Wexford during this time, as well as the changes
between Natalie and Cedric.
But what could she do?
Her son was so stubborn!
She had interfered too much in their lives in the past, so this time, she decided not to get involved. She
also believed that her son could handle everything and would surely be able to bring Natalie back to his
side.
