Chapter 88 Giving the Best to Isabella

Natalie was surprised that such a significant event was something she only learned from her uncle.

Even during all these years of marriage, Cedric had never mentioned this to her. She hadn’t heard anything about it from anyone in the Johnson family either.

“This happened when he was ten years old, and he almost died,” Stephen explained.

Natalie’s heart tightened as she heard this.

No wonder Cedric had never told her about it. It wasn’t a pleasant memory, and he probably wished he

could forget it forever.

“At that time, Isabella’s brother saved him. Cedric survived, but Ivan didn’t,” Stephen continued.

Natalie was taken aback.

Ivan had died?!

Was that why…?

“Nat, be careful with the Johnson family. Why don’t you come back to Simeria?”

According to his analysis, the Johnson family probably still didn’t know about Isabella, except for Cedric.

He likely had been too preoccupied with Natalie’s constant arguments to find the right moment to inform the family.

Ivan had been the Johnson family’s benefactor back then. As Isabella was his only sister, the family would naturally support her. If the entire Johnson family sided with Isabella against Natalie, her situation in Verde City could become very dangerous.

Stephen was deeply concerned, so he urged Natalie to return to Simeria.

Natalie considered his advice, then took a deep breath and asked. “But how is this incident related to Isabella’s hatred for me?”

She felt the intensity of Isabella’s hatred but couldn’t see the connection between it and Ivan’s past.

At the moment, we don’t have all the details. You need to come back to Simeria first, Stephen insisted.

While Natalie understood his concems, she had many ongoing commitments in Verde City. She had taken on numerous projects, and prematurely ending them would cause significant issues.
