Chapter 129 Expelled from Verde City
To Stephen, marriage meant responsibility to the family, the children, and the woman.
Stephen treated Heather exceptionally well. Despite any temptations throughout the years in Simeria, he
never wavered.
That was why he felt that Cedric had committed an unforgivable sin by hurting Natalie. She was his wife,
and he was supposed to protect her. Even if Natalie was more important to him in his heart, harming his
own wife for the sake of another woman was a grave offense in the world of men.
“I can rest assured now that you see things clearly,” Stephen said with a hint of approval.
Did Cedric care about Natalie?
Whether he did or not was his own business.
Stephen had worried that Natalie might make mistakes, fearing that she might soften her heart because
of Cedric’s feelings.
“I thought you were going to start lecturing me.”
Earlier, Stephen’s attitude did seem like he might.
But now, he stood up and waved his hand dismissively. “Perhaps he cares for you deep in his heart, but
the other woman occupies too much of his world. You can’t handle a relationship like that.”
Indeed, the older generation saw through these things. However, Natalie failed to see this clearly in her
previous life. She continued to wait until she truly went blind, and only then did she fully resent Cedric.
It was only when he burned her alive that she finally gave up.
Recalling those times when she was heartbroken because of Isabella’s actions, she now realizes how
naive she was
*Now that you are the president of Sylvan, what are your plans for the studio?”
“I’ll continue to run it,” Natalie replied without hesitation.
Taking over Sylvan Gems was somewhat sudden, and she was bound to have limited energy. But the
studio was her first business, and she didn’t want to close it down so quickly.
“What do you plan to do?”
“I’ll have Karina help manage it for now!” Natalie had observed Karina’s capabilities during this time in the
That also works!” Stephen nodded.

He didn’t object to her words and treated her respectfully. However, Stephen inwardly understood that Natalie had officially begun her journey at Regal Horizons International.
She insisted on stubbornly running the studio now. But as time went on, she would take on more responsibilities. Would she have the time and energy to personally run it at that time?
“Have you been losing a lot of clients lately?” Stephen asked.
Natalie felt a bit embarrassed.
Stephen continued, “You’re really not his match.”
He was talking about Cedric.
Stephen was a veteran in the business world. Even without asking, he knew that Cedric was responsible
for Natalie losing those orders.
“Now that he knows, I won’t need to hold back on taking advantage of our relationship,” she shamelessly
declared.
She used to be reluctant to admit it.
Now, there’s nothing more holding her back!
Stephen looked at her and raised an eyebrow, “You better do well, or how will the studio cover Karina’s
salary?”
That was a valid point!
After learning about Karina’s salary, Natalie was shocked. She never expected that even an ordinary assistant in Stephen’s company would have such a high salary.
If she was going to do this, she couldn’t afford to not pay Karina’s salary!
After deciding to use Stephen’s connections, Natalie fully embraced the opportunity to work. She immediately went to the study to have a conference call with Karina, giving instructions for the next steps
at the studio.
Meanwhile, Isabella had already entered the operating room. Cedric waited outside, still unaware that Isaac was no longer at the hospital, thinking that Isaac was performing Isabella’s surgery.

As for Dr. Landry, he was now under immense pressure inside the operating room.
Cedric’s expression was gloomy. Suppressing the rage in his chest, he asked, “How was the surgery?”
