Chapter 193 Provocation

After Cedric left, Natalie tried to suppress the impulse in her chest. But ultimately, she failed.

She picked up her phone and called Stephen.

Cedric’s parting words undoubtedly reminded her that he wouldn’t let things go easily.

“Uncle!”

“Hmm?”

“Is there any trouble within Regal Horizons?” Natalie asked, thinking of potential issues similar to the

and finally said, “Cedric is behind all this.”

The air fell silent. Even through the phone, Natalie could sense how Stephen’s breathing turned ragged.

You already knew early on, didn’t you?” Stephen asked after a moment, breaking the silence
