How long had it been since Natalie heard that name?
The name made her three years of marriage with Cedric agonizing! The name of the woman who constantly suppressed her!
Rebecca had always compared her to those other women and was never satisfied with anything Natalie did...!
How long had it been?
Ever since the fire at the detention center years ago, Natalie hadn't seen Rebecca. Natalie never bothered to inquire about where she had been or how she was doing all these years.
After all, Rebecca was an insignificant existence in Natalie's life now!
With the end of her relationship with Cedric, these people had become her past completely.
But she never expected them to come back.
Why was Rebecca here?
"What does she want?" Natalie took a deep breath, feeling a bit dizzy. Obviously, even now, Natalie wasn't too keen on facing the topic of Rebecca.
The servant replied, "It's because of Mr. Johnson's disappearance!"
With Cedric leaving Wexford and disappearing without a trace, such significant news was known everywhere. No matter where Rebecca e was, she would also naturally know. She must have been frantic looking for Cedric these past few days.
That was why Rebecca was here!
Natalie never wanted to see Rebecca again, and Rebecca probably had the same idea, right?
If it weren't for Cedric going missing, Rebecca probably would never want to see Natalie, right?
"I got it," Natalie said before hanging up the phone.
Originally, she was going back to Lotus Villa, but now, she obviously wouldn't! Turning back, she glanced toward the stairs where Irwin had already gone upstairs.
Natalie stood alone and contemplated!
In the end, she returned to Hillside Villa.

Meanwhile, Rebecca was having a conversation with the Jarvis family.
Heather's expression was unpleasant as she coldly said, "You should leave. She won't see you...!"
"Mrs. Jarvis, you're also a mother! I think you should be able to understand my feelings!" Rebecca said with suppressed emotions.
Rebecca had known...!
She had known Natalie's identity for a long time, and she even made concessions regarding Cedric and Natalie's relationship. However, Rebecca never expected to receive such news when she finally settled down to enjoy her later years...
Her son had disappeared from Wexford!
What did that mean?
Back then, when Cedric went into prison for Natalie's sake, Rebecca felt as if her heart bled!
At that time, she had decided...
If Cedric came out of prison and pulled himself together, she wouldn't care about the reason.
Even if he did it for Natalie's sake...
She would forget about everything and no longer involve herself in their affairs.
Yes!
That was Rebecca's concession.
She would step back and give them their space. That was what she would have done!
But now...
What was going on?
Her heart ached terribly!
When Heather heard Rebecca's words about how she should understand as she was also a mother, her already uneasy heart grew even more tumultuous.
She picked up the teacup and splashed the liquid onto Rebecca's face!
"Understand? You want me to understand a woman who tortured my daughter and treated her as an outsider after marrying into your family?!"
How could Heather possibly understand such a person?
How dare Rebecca ask for Heather's understanding? Did she have the right?!
Rebecca felt the cold sensation on her face. Suddenly, she looked even more disheveled than before. However, even in such a state, she didn't have the right to blame Heather.
