Chapter 26 The Man’s Age

On a private plane, Natalie lay in agony on the seats, with a doctor and a nurse by her side.

Two hours ago, Cedric had unexpectedly appeared at Stephen’s company, leading to a violent altercation between them. The punch meant for Stephen had landed on Natalie, as Cedric didn’t have time to pull

back.

Stephen had been furious, looking as though he wanted to kill Cedric. However, Cedric’s men swiftly Intervened. Catching them off guard, they forcefully escorted Natalie to the airport and onto the plane.

From the moment they boarded the plane until now, neither of them had spoken a word. Cedric sat on a different seat, downing one glass of strong liquor after another.

Yuvan approached her, a conflicted expression on his face.

hands and assumed full control.

As for Cedric’s search for her? She found it ironic.

Seeing that Natalie didn’t respond, Yuvan didn’t know what to say.

Meanwhile, Cedric spoke up, “Yuvan, come over here!”

“Yes, sir.”

Yuvan shot a meaningful glance at Natalie before turning hesitantly to walk towards Cedric.

As Cedric staggered over, it was evident that he was quite intoxicated. When he spoke, there was a
