Chapter 20 Wanting a Child

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

alcohol after ten at night.

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.

Dressed in a bathrobe, a hint of coldness flickered in her eyes, and even her legs were tense. She turned and walked away without sparing him a glance. Evidently, she was heading to another room because even sharing the same space with him right now felt suffocating.

“Stop!”

She had only taken a couple of steps when she heard him call out in a chilling tone from behind her. That presence felt like it could tear her apart.

In her previous life, she had been heartbroken when she heard him speak to her in such a tone. But now, Natalie was calm, even in regards to his affair with Isabella

However, she had her pride, especially regarding the matter of divorce.

In the past, whenever she caused a scene, she would back down immediately if Cedric got angry. But this

time, she didn’t.

She started to move more quickly, throwing her towel into the laundry basket by the door.

The man stared at her back with a gaze so intense it felt like it could pierce through her.

His voice grew colder as he asked, “Don’t you have anything to explain to me?”

Natalie snorted at his words. “No!”

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

She fell into the man’s embrace.
