Chapter 71

Situation

Every time there was a banquet at the Johnson Manor, Natalie was always too busy to dress up so

elegantly.

Even the custom–made dresses in her closet that Cedric had given her had never been worn. For so many years, he had never seen her in a dress.

But now, looking at her, she shone like the bright stars in the sky. She was so close, yet she gave off an

elusive feeling.

Cedric’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat. Natalie got into the car.

Upon seeing Cedric’s expression, she coldly asked, “What are you looking at?”

“You look beautiful in that dress!” Cedric snapped out of his trance and said with complicated feelings.

She was truly stunning.

He had never really known his wife’s beauty…!!

This was probably how it was.

In all the years they had been together, it seemed like he had never truly understood her. He had thought. he knew her well enough, but now he realized that he didn’t know her character.

He didn’t even know what she looked like in a dress.

Natalie casually inspected her painted nails. “How does it compare to your other woman?”

Cedric retorted, “You can stop talking now!”

This woman could be so infuriating!

As soon as she opened her mouth, she could piss him off!

Natalie shot him a sideways glance and said, “What, don’t you like to hear it?”

Thope we can get along peacefully today, and I’ll give you whatever you want afterward.”

Cedric sighed inwardly. He just didn’t want to argue today.

Natalie replied, “That depends on whether you leave me in a good mood or not.
