Chapter 568 Courtyard Residence

As Cedric got out of the car, he instinctively moved to carry Natalie.

However, Natalie called out, “Lydia!”

“Yes, Miss.”

Just as Cedric was about to reach out, Lydia hurriedly approached Natalie, extending her hand to

carefully assist Natalie out of the car.

Listening to the surroundings, Natalie concluded that it was nighttime here.

A cool breeze swept in. It wasn’t chilly but rather pleasant, giving off the fragrance of flowers, some of

which she couldn’t name. The scent was delightful, creating a likable atmosphere.

Upon entering the courtyard, both Lydia and Xyla held Natalie carefully to support her.

“Miss, be careful. There’s a threshold!”

Threshold?

Natalie couldn’t help but wonder about the place Cedric had brought her to. There was the smell of

wood and a faint odor of paint, unfamiliar but pleasant. It instantly brought a sense of peace to her

heart.

“Sir, you’ve returned.” The butler said as he approached, bowing respectfully to Cedric.

Cedric nodded. “I’ll be staying here for a while.”

“Understood, sir. We’ve prepared everything for you,” the butler said respectfully.

Evidently, Cedric had informed them beforehand, and the place had been tidied up.

Courtyard houses needed to be well–maintained for comfortable living.

The butler led Cedric and Natalie to their rooms.

The courtyard was not too large but warm, with dwarf pines and bamboo planted everywhere. Lydia

found the atmosphere pleasing. The small courtyard made the air feel even more comfortable.

“Lydia.” As Lydia helped Natalie settle into a chair inside the room, Natalie ran her fingers over the firm

wooden surface.

“Yes, Miss? Would you like some water?”

“What is this place?” Natalie asked with a frown.

This was the primary reason she feared the dark. Not knowing what surrounded her was truly

Lydia spoke respectfully, “This is a courtyard residence, Miss.”

“A courtyard residence?”

“Yes, Miss.” As Lydia explained, there was a hint of regret in her tone.

Back when they were at Hillside Villa, Natalie had always talked about building a courtyard residence,

expressing her preference for Yuloria’s courtyard houses. She found the unique characteristics of such

houses very comforting.

She liked that kind of dwelling!

It was a pity that Natalie was here now, but she couldn’t see anything around her. It was distressing to

see her in this state.

Natalie furrowed her brow, showing a hint of seriousness.

A courtyard residence?

When Cedric arranged everything upon their arrival, he told Lydia and Xyla, “The layout of these rooms

has been modified for convenience.”

“Understood,” Lydia replied, taking note of Cedric’s words.

Cedric approached Natalie and sat beside her. Then, he took Natalie’s somewhat cold hand in his.

“The climate here is different from Simeria. It can get a bit chilly in the morning and evening. You need

to be especially careful now.”

Natalie withdrew her hand from his, clearly not taking his words to heart.

Cedric looked at her indifferent and distant demeanor.

There was a suffocating feeling in his chest, yet he showed no expression.

After all, this was something he had brought it upon himself. So, he now had to bear the

consequences.

“I had the kitchen prepare some local dishes from Yuloria. Would you like to have some?” he offered.

Natalie had always loved eating. She had always wanted to come to Yuloria to enjoy the local

snacks.
