Chapter 1218:

Cedric.

Cedric had to know. He must've realized the bomb was a fake.

That had to be the reason he'd acted so fearlessly.

Otherwise, how could he ignore the instinct to flee? Why hadn't Cedric run away?

Alexander was losing it.

He kept repeating, over and over, that it couldn't be true. Absolutely impossible!

It was one's instinct to protect themselves.

The only thing that made sense was that Cedric knew the bomb was fake.

He laughed maniacally, as if losing his mind. "Cedric, you're such a m schemer! Daniela, Natalie's just a En

Alexander was because she was

waiting for Natalie to make her move.

Now that Natalie was caught, she had no desire to waste another second on him.

She glanced at Carol and ordered, "Take her inside."
