Chapter 267

Chapter 267 Where is the Child?

Cedric grabbed her wrist. Their eyes met, and his eyes were sharp and profound. It was as if he held

everything in his hands.

While Natalie stood in a high position, it seemed that Cedric was standing in a higher place

that was out of her reach.

No matter where she positioned herself through her efforts, he could still easily control her

life.

Yet, even so, she… showed no fear in her eyes!

Cedric looked at the calmness in her eyes and gently extended his hand again under clothes, just like

before.

her

The cold fingertips lightly traced the ten–inch scar on her abdomen, and he smiled. “Don’t tell me this is

a surgical scar left by appendicitis!”

No wonder he had behaved so rudely just now. He wanted to catch Natalie off guard in this

matter.

When he brought up the child, Natalie’s gaze at him was even colder than before, with hints of

scattered danger!

“So, you even knew I was pregnant back then?”

She was smiling.

It was a terrifying smile.

The calm eyes of the past two years, once filled with the sharpness of a businesswoman, now held a

different kind of ruthlessness!

Only, there was no hatred for him!

Why?

Because it didn’t matter!

As someone insignificant to her, what was there to hate?

In the past two years, with what she had and what she gained anew, Natalie could easily let go of

everything with a perfectly reasonable excuse.

And in gaining everything she had, she really had let go of her past.

Therefore, facing Cedric now, she could achieve pure anger, emotionless… and indifferent

augur

When he met her eyes, Cedric’s heart seemed to hurt painfully.

“You don’t hate me?”

He looked carefully, and indeed, he couldn’t see any hatred.

Natalie pulled her wrist out of his hand. She looked at the reddened skin, gently pinched and rubbed it,

then looked back at Cedric.

With a bright smile, she said, “I got rid of the child!”

Every word she spoke was calm, without any concealment.

While saying these words, she was emotionless, as if… she didn’t care about him or their child.

At these words, Cedric’s mind went blank!

Their eyes met again. Compared to the calmness in Natalie’s eyes, Cedric’s eyes were now filled with

madness.

“You got rid…?”

It was as if he couldn’t hear his own voice as he stared at the woman in front of him in disbelief.

Natalie nodded. “Exact

Cedric was speechless.

The words kept echoing in his mind. Then, a dangerous glint flashed in Cedric’s eyes as he looked at

Natalie. His eyes were now crimson as he grabbed Natalie’s shoulders.

At that moment, Natalie clearly felt the man’s hands trembling. Meeting his crimson eyes, a sense of

satisfaction welled up in her heart.

Then, he regained his composure.

“Natalie…!” He hissed out her name through clenched teeth as if he wanted to tear her to pieces!

Natalie laughed.

Compared to the sharp danger in the man’s eyes, her laughter was carefree and casual.

She even added with a playful tone, “What? Does Mr. Johnson think I should give birth to a child for a

man who personally threw me into prison?”

The emphasis on the word ‘personally‘ was heavy, reminding Cedric why she ended up in prison two

years ago

As she finished her sentence, the hands that were holding her shoulders loosened at this

at her.

Without waiting for Cedric to speak, Natalie reached out, roughly tearing open her own shirt to reveal

the gruesome burn marks.

She took off her coat, rolled up the sleeves of her shirt, and revealed the scars on her arms.

“See? These are just one–third of the injuries. Do you know how much anesthesia and medicine I

needed for these wounds?”

Cedric was silent.

Although he had seen these scars that day, his eyes widened at the large wounds presented to him

after she took off her clothes.

He opened his mouth to say something, but his tongue seemed to have been numbed and had lost all

sensation.

Seeing him at a loss for words, the smile on Natalie’s lips widened. “Putting aside the severe injuries I

suffered, I wouldn’t have kept that child even if I was fine!!!

Natalie’s words were resolute.

Cedric looked at her. The originally softened look in his eyes was now crimson, stimulated by

Natalie’s words.

It was unclear how they parted ways that day.

In the matter of the child, Cedric was ultimately left speechless. Even if there was a scar on Natalie’s

belly, he couldn’t demand an explanation from her after what had happened.

The current Natalie was so indifferent towards him.

It was as if… there had never been anything between them.

She could face him calmly. Even in the face of his pressing questions, she could respond casually.

“Sir.”

In the car, Lucas looked at Cedric with some concern. They were still at the entrance of Regal Horizons

International.

Natalie had entered half an hour ago, and Cedric showed no sign of leaving.

Cedric rubbed his aching forehead:

He said, “Lucas.”

“Yes, sir.

“Did you find out anything?”

He was referring to the matter of that child.

The reason he came today to ask Natalie was to hear it from her own mouth. Just now,

Natalie’s calmness had almost driven him to lose his sanity, but half an hour was enough for him to

regain his clarity.

Thinking of the scar on Natalie’s abdomen, Cedric couldn’t believe it. She was someone who

loved children so much.

Having experienced two lifetimes, the current Cedric was continuously rational. No matter what kind of

stimulation he encountered, he worked hard to stay calm.

Lucas said, “I checked. Ms. Walker has had no medical records in the past two years.

“None?”

“Yes, sir.” Lucas nodded.

Cedric probably understood even if Lucas didn’t say anything else.

With Ste

With Stephen’s position in Simeria, erasing those things would be a piece of cake.

Snap!

He lit a cigarette, took two deep puffs, and tried to suppress the restlessness in his chest.

Lucas thought for a moment, then said to Cedric, “By the way, sir, there’s something else.”

“What is it?”

“Ms. Walker…”

“Call her Madam!” Cedric corrected with a cold tone.

If that woman wanted to break clean of her relationship with him, she had to ask him….. whether he

allowed it or not!

Lucas paused, then skillfully continued, “Madam is investigating how you got out of the prison.
