Chapter 262 How Have You Spent These Two Years
Finally, Cedric gradually let go of Natalie. The joy of seeing her alive turned into a chilling
coldness that seemed to pour over him like a bucket of ice water. It made him cold from head.
to toe..
“Do you think I’m acting?” He spoke, his tone somewhat dry.
How could she say such a thing?
Everything he had done for her now became nothing more than a performance in her eyes!
What could be more hurtful than these words?
Cedric looked at Natalie, his eyes filled with sadness. However, Natalie’s attitude remained indifferent and cold.
She calmly moved away from him and sat beside him, reaching out to tidy up her clothes. The deliberate way she dusted herself seemed to express her disdain for him.
The coldness and disdain in her eyes stirred Cedric’s rationality into madness.
Like a madman, he pressed her onto the back seat.
“Natalie!” Cedric hissed through gritted teeth.
Natalie looked at the man pressing on her, a hint of a smile on her lips. “What are you doing?”
“Do you know-”
“How have you spent these two years?” Before Cedric could finish, Natalie coldly cut him off.
Her eyes were still exceptionally cold.
Cedric’s heart sank. His fingers gently touched her eyelids, even trembling slightly at this
moment.
What happened?
Why did it disappear?
In the past, there had always been a gentle glint in these eyes when they looked at him. There used to be a hint of tenderness and sparkle, and she would smile when her eyes met his.
Why were they so cold now?
Lost. It was he who lost It.
In his previous life, he destroyed all the brightness and tenderness in those eyes.
In this life, although her eyes were intact, he shattered all her deep feelings for him from the Inside
“Nat.” Cedric softly called Natalie’s name, his tone… involuntarily trembling.
He was anxious because he had lost her. Regardless of whether it was in his previous life or this life, Cedric was confronted with the questions he had never dared to face for the past two years in prison.
Sometimes in prison, he would wonder if Natalie would forgive him if she were still alive in
this world.
Now, he saw the answer in her eyes.
In his previous life, even if Natalie had eventually awakened, she would never have forgiven
him.
Just like this life.
Even if he chased after her from a different world, even if he found her, he couldn’t retrieve
her heart.
He had truly lost it.
“Nat.” Cedric called her name, hoping for the warm response he used to get.
However, there was none.
He gained nothing.
Instead, he heard Natalie’s cold and mocking words, “If I were you, I would stay in prison
forever!”
“As a person, you have responsibilities. Whether they are good or bad, you must bear them yourself, right?”
Since he had the courage to do those things, he should be ready to take responsibility
Now, well… Hah!
The mockery in Natalie’s eyes grew stronger. “Cedric, you’re not even a responsible man in my eyes right now.”
“I really don’t know how I saw anything in you before!”
This statement was a bit harsh.
Under her words, all the pain and warmth in the man’s eyes dissipated, replaced by coldness
and dominance.
Even the air around him changed.

Looking into her eyes, there was a kind of desire Those eyes, like deep pools, almost seemed to suck her into the profound vortex
“Anyway, you being alive is good!” Cedric spoke with a cold and stern tone, though it soften slightly at the end.
Natalie chuckled.
Being alive was good?
What a phrase!
“I didn’t die from all your torture and tricks. It must be disappointing to you, right?”
As the words fell, his entire body couldn’t help but stiffen.
Tricks! Torture!
Those were the things he had done to her previously. It was not surprising that she hated him,
so much.
Looking at Natalie, his eyes showed a peculiar restraint. However, when he noted the faintly; visible burn on Natalie’s neck, hidden by the high collar, his carefully recovered rationality was shattered once again instantly.
Grabbing Natalie’s collar, Cedric violently tore it open. The ripping sound echoed in the cramped space, intensifying the already heavy atmosphere..
Cedric’s sudden action caught Natalie off guard, and her composure was instantly shattered. She raised her hand, intending to slap him, but a force on her wrist stopped her.
When she raised her hand, the once fair arm revealed a multitude of scars, centipedes crawling all over.
Seeing her in this state, Cedric’s heart couldn’t help but ache.
She had scars on the neck and on the arms.
Where else did she have them?
resembling
“These… They are all from back then?” Cedric spoke with a hoarse voice, looking at the densely packed scars. His eyes narrowed and then became bloodshot. It was as if something. was grabbing lits heart and squeezing it incessantly.
Natalie forcefully pulled her hand back, tidying her collar and covering the wounds on her neck and arms.
