Chapter 98 The Obedient Daughter–in–law
After lunch, Irwin dropped Natalie back to the office. As soon as Natalie entered the office, she felt that
something was amiss.
Karina gave her a meaningful look in the direction of her office.
“Is he here?”
Natalie was referring to Cedric.
Karina nodded. “Yes.”
It was just as Natalie expected!
Cedric had lost the piece of land in the eastern suburbs. Without a doubt, he would now keep an eye on what was happening near Dragon Park.
So, he would be aware of any movement from the companies involved.
Just this morning, she met Yvonne from Premier Garden Corporation.
Now, he was here during lunch.
Natalie took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, and then entered her office.
The strong smell of smoke hit her nose!
There were cigarette butts in the disposable cup in front of Cedric, indicating that he had arrived shortly after she left.
When he heard the door open, Cedric turned around.
Natalie’s heart clenched when she saw the deep pain in his eyes. However, she quickly composed herself.

Ms. Walker?
It was such an unfamiliar way of addressing her!
But he had to admit… This woman used to be useless and only knew how to stay at home. She used to only know how to go shopping and swipe her credit cards.
Now, everyone who saw her would respectfully address her as Ms. Walker.
Alright, Ms. Walker, Cedric said with a faint smile that was tinged with mockery.
