Chapter 117 The Fish That Slipped Through the Net (1)
“Don’t dwell on things between you and that kid. If a man truly loved you, he would wholeheartedly trust you, no matter what happens.”
Regardless of what occurs, the man would believe the woman he truly loved.
Natalie felt a lump in her throat!
“I don’t care about him anymore,” she said in an unusually calm tone.
Stephen looked at her and pondered momentarily. Then, he said, “I have some new information about
Isabella.”
“What is it?”
“I must first warn you that it
“I must first warn you that it’s not good news.”
Initially, Stephen had no intention of informing Natalie on this matter when he first found out. However, Karina mentioned that Natalie was hiring a private investigator before Stephen arrived today.
It was evident that Natalie was anxious and concerned about this matter. Even if Stephen didn’t tell her,
she would eventually find out on her own.
Natalie swallowed hard. “What do you mean by that?”
Stephen sat down, took a sip of the water, and said, “I think the one she actually hates is your mother.”
Natalie was speechless.
Her mother?
“Uncle…?”
Her chest tightened, and she became tense.
Her mother?!
Stephen looked at her with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, From his expression, Natalie could tell that
this was definitely something bad.
“Regarding this matter, I think….”
I need to know!” Natalie interrupted Stephen before he could finish his sentence.
Natalie could probably guess what Stephen intended to say. He likely wanted to assure her that she didn’t

Isabella had done so many things to hurt her! Even in her past life, Isabella had ultimately taken her eyes!
Natalie even suspected that Isabella had something to do with Cedric burning her alive.
With such deep–seated hatred between them, how could she not want to know the root of it?
“Nat…”
“Tell me. I can handle it!”
At this moment, Natalie probably realized that Isabella’s identity might not be as straightforward as she
had thought.
Stephen was somewhat worried that Natalie wouldn’t be able to bear it.
However, Natalie had already experienced death once.
What else could she not bear at this point?
Stephen’s expression became solemn. Finally, he said, “She… is your half–sister!”
Natalie was speechless!
Meanwhile, Rebecca remained unconscious in the hospital. After a thorough examination, the doctor concluded that it was a stress–induced heart attack and there was nothing else wrong with her.
However, the reason for Rebecca’s continued unconsciousness was likely due to extreme stress.
“Ced, do you think Mom will…?” Christina’s eyes were red, clearly indicating she had been crying before this.
Cedric glanced at Rebecca’s pale face.
Christina said, “How could Natalie treat you like this? How could she do this to our family? Does she hate us that much?!”
Cedric and Natalie were already divorced.
With that done, Christina didn’t want to have a bad relationship with Natalie anymore.
But when she thought about how Natalie and Cedric had been together at the hospital entrance earlier,
Though Christina hadn’t learned much over the years by Rebecca’s side, she had gained insight into the
hearts of men.
Cedric seemed to be on Isabella’s side and was trying to help her. However, even when Isabella was faking her blindness, Cedric hadn’t been able to get Natalie to donate her eyes!
So, Christina suspected that Cedric’s heart was still with Natalie.
Was he finding various excuses to be involved with her again?
Yes, that must be it!
Looking at the impatience in Cedric’s eyes, Christina felt panic rising in her heart. Despite this, she maintained a face of innocence and sorrow.
When she first arrived at the Johnson family, she was constantly worried about being kicked out and
Check on Isabella?
But what about her? He hadn’t called her ‘Tina” in such a long time…!
