Chapter 327 Imminent Crisis

Watching Natalie turn around, her firm and distant figure seemed to carry a hatred transcending lifetimes.

Even if it required a thousand different methods, they must separate!

Thinking of the hatred brought about by another life, Cedric stiffened. He stood in place with a hint of hurt in his eyes.

Was Natalie really the same as him? Had she really come from another lifetime?

If that was the case, how could he ever make up for the pain she carried in both lifetimes?

Lucas glanced in the direction Natalie left, then approached Cedric and said solemnly, “Mr. Johnson, that person has called three times personally. He hopes you’ll return to Wexford immediately!”

That was a side of Cedric that had always remained unknown to others. Not even Natalie or Rebecca had any knowledge of it.

Wexford represented a powerful and mysterious presence–his father!

Natalie.

about her.

tone.

This reminder instantly brought Cedric to his senses.

Indeed, that person…!
