Later in the morning, Cedric went out. He went to meet the rumored doctor, Edward!

During this time, Lydia and Xyla tried to find someone they could borrow a phone from, but all their

efforts were in vain...!

Since Cedric had confiscated their phones, he naturally had plans to guard against this.

"When we went out in the morning, his people followed us the entire time. We didn't have a chance to

contact anyone," Lydia said with a hint of annoyance.

It was evident that Cedric truly wasn't allowing any contact between them and anyone from Simeria

during this period.

Natalie sat in the darkness. Her surroundings were pitch black, making it impossible to sense any

directions.

Lydia glanced at Natalie. "Miss."

"Hmm?"

"We need to at least contact Madam...!"

Lydia and Xyla both understood the depth of Heather's concern towards Natalie. They could disregard

everything else happening, but...

Heather must be the one who was most anxious and unable to calm down right now!

Ever since she found out her child was missing, Heather had been tormented over the years.

Now...!

With such an incident happening, it was easy to imagine what Heather must be going through.

Natalie's head ached.

"Yeah."

That was all Natalie could respond with!

She had already said all she needed to say to Cedric, but that man was so persistent.

"Has it been raining the whole time?"

"Yes."

Even though Natalie could hear the rain on the roof, hearing Lydia say it made her feel that the weather

in Yuloria wasn't really good.

The feeling of listening to the rain in the darkness could calm even the most restless of hearts.

When Cedric returned, he saw Natalie sitting on a chair under the eaves, draped in a cloak that Lydia

had put on her.

At that moment, she looked so serene.

The man was soaked from head to toe, and Natalie felt it immediately!

This kind of perception made her heart beat uncontrollably.

She didn't like this feeling, not at all...!

"What's wrong? Why do you look like that?" Cedric approached and saw Natalie's pale face.

"At least let me tell them I'm okay," Natalie said.

She didn't answer his question.

"I've contacted them and told them that you're fine."

"..."

Her heart leaped to her throat when she heard that.

Cedric had contacted them?!

Her parents were probably worried half to death when they heard Cedric's voice!

This man truly had no self-awareness.

Natalie couldn't help but feel exasperated about this.

Cedric sat down on a chair beside her and said, "You have to at least... take a look at this courtyard."

Natalie fell silent.

She could sense the bitterness in Cedric's tone.

Before she could retort angrily, Cedric continued, "You'll definitely like it here. Everything is laid out

according to what you wanted."

According to what she wanted?

Once upon a time...!

She used to talk to Cedric about the kind of small courtyard whenever he had time.

What had Cedric said back then?

"There isn't such a place in this world..."

Yes, that was the answer he gave her at that time.

But now, he was saying that this place...

"Why bother doing all this?" Natalie's tone was full of mockery.

Yes, it was indeed mockery.

Back then, when she wanted something, he never gave it to her.

Now, she no longer wanted everything she had dreamed of before, but this man insisted on imposing it

on her?!

It was ridiculous!
