Chapter 20 Wanting a Child

Natalie assumed that Cedric wouldn’t be back for a few days. To her surprise, he returned reeking of

While drying her hair with a towel, she came out of the bathroom and spotted Cedric, who was still wearing the same clothes he had gone out in earlier.

Hearing hurried footsteps behind her, Natalie quickened her pace, but it was too late.

She fell into the man’s embrace.
