Chapter 540 Resentment

Natalie’s tone was filled with indulgence.

“Look at you. You’re all covered in sand. Where were you playing?”

“In the sandbox! Mommy, do you want to come?” Luna said to Natalie, showcasing how

much of a paradise that place was for the child.

Heather doted on Laina immensely. After Luna returned to Simeria, the backyard of Lotus

Villa was gradually transformed. It was now filled entirely with playground equipment for

the child.

Essentially, anything available outside could be found here. And the sandbox was Luna’s

favorite.

“Mommy has some matters to attend to now. Once I’m free, I’ll come and play with you,

okay? “Natalie gently said.

Luna nodded. She wriggled out of Natalie’s arms and then ran off on her tiny legs.

Natalie’s heart softened as she watched Luna’s petite figure. She couldn’t deny that at

one point, she had prioritized avoiding Cedric completely for Luna’s sake. Natalie had

done it despite the overwhelming hatred she had felt toward Cedric

However, now…!

thoroughly

Since he had intended to hurt Luna to use her to save Kayla, Natalie’s heart wa shaken. All

her pent–up emotions were overturned, and her tolerance for Cedric reached its limit.

She couldn’t bear it any longer!

Just then, her phone vibrated.

Natalie glanced at the incoming call.

It was Cedric’s.

She smirked coldly and picked up. “Hello.”

“Must it really be this way?” The voice on the other end of the call was hoarse.

She replied coldly, “This is what you brought upon yourself.”

Brought upon himself?

Indeed!

In Natalie’s opinion, hadn’t Cedric brought this upon himself?

“Stop it. Wexford isn’t as simple as you think,” he said.

Stop?

Now, he was asking her to stop?!

Once, she was as pliable in his hands as clay. He had manipulated her at will.

Even a dead carcass on the chopping board had a better fate than Natalie.

Without waiting for her response, Cedric continued, “Nat, I never wanted to drag you into

Wexford’s mess.”

“Can we put an end to all of this?”

It wasn’t as simple as she thought, nor as straightforward as she perceived.

“No!” Natalie replied with a chilling firmness.

Stop? He made it sound so simple!

Had he ever stopped before?

“Did

you ever think of stopping the harm you inflicted on me for Isabella’s sake? Did you ever

consider not throwing me into prison?”

No, he hadn’t then, had he?

“Did you think of stopping when you were about to use Luna to save Kayla?”

The tone in Natalie’s voice was more than just cold.

It was icy.
