hapter 77 Possibly Natalie’s Relative
Cedric was silent at Hayden’s words.
A relative?!
At that moment, a glimmer of hope rose within him, but it quickly vanished as he shook his head.
“She doesn’t have any living relatives.”
Cedric… was her only living relative through marriage.
Yet now, she no longer wanted him as her family.
Her world would be empty.
The thought of her ending up like that pained Cedric deeply
“I know you said before that her parents died when she was very young, and her grandmother passed
away without saying anything to her. But could it be that her grandmother still has other relatives?” Isaac
pondered.
Other relatives?!
Cedric replied, “If she did have relatives, she would have told me.”
After all, they had always been open with each other!
Open… The word brought back a deep, lingering pain in Cedric’s heart.
How long had it been since they truly opened their hearts to each other?
“It’s hard to say!” Isaac said.
In any case, Isaac couldn’t believe that Natalie would look for a man who could be old enough to be her
father when she had Cedric for a husband
Currently, everyone seemed confused, but Isaac was the only one who seemed to have a clear
perspective.
And Cedric… began to feel uncertain as well!
Natalie had mentioned her close relatives had died when she was very young, but who knew if there were
any distant relatives still alive?
Could it be that the man she was with was a distant relative?
Cedric couldn’t help but hope, deep down, that Stephen was Natalie’s distant relative.
In that case, maybe she….
Cedric closed his eyes and took another sip of his drink. Several empty bottles already lay before him.
That night, everyone except for Natalie experienced a night of extreme turmoil. When Isabella returned to the hospital, she received a threatening phone call from Rebecca.
“You may have lost the use of your legs and eyes, Isabella, but if you dare to seduce my son, I’ll make you
taste the consequences of crossing me!”
It was a threat but also carried a strong sense of compulsion.
Rebecca recalled the commotion Isabella had caused at the evening banquet. It had led to Natalie’s
uproar, which had tarnished the Johnson family’s reputation.
She hated Natalie, but she loathed Isabella even more.
“Aunt, Ced and I…”
“Shut your mouth!”
“Did you call him Ced?” Rebecca asked sternly.
At that moment, Isabella realized what she was up against.
Earlier in the evening, Cedric had agreed to divorce Natalie, and everyone was happy about it.
However, Natalie was no longer part of the Johnson family now.
She had left Cedric.
As a mother, Rebecca would naturally look for a suitable woman for Cedric–someone who matched the
family’s standards in terms of social status and appearance.
Isabella was clearly not up to her standards.
“Get ready. Tomorrow, I will send someone to find you. You’ll go abroad. I’ll make arrangements to ensure
you have a comfortable life. If you behave, you’ll enjoy a lifetime of luxury and prosperity. If you don’t
Rebecca’s tone and words were harsh!
There was even a hint of danger in her voice!
Even if she didn’t finish her sentence, Isabella knew exactly what Rebecca meant.
Around three in the morning, Natalie woke up because her phone was vibrating.
She was usually a heavy sleeper, but the continuous ringing had finally roused her.
Cedric was drunk?
Hayden noticed that something was off and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Seriously? That was clearly the right number! It was obvious she had no regard for Cedric whatsoever!
