StarNovelChapter 338 Playing Tricks
When did it all start?
It seemed to begin when Isabella wanted revenge against Natalie, back when she hadn’t found a way
to
connect with Cedric yet.
That man had appeared out of nowhere.
He helped her get close to Cedric and stirred up chaos between Natalie and Cedric,
Watching Natalie gradually fall from her pedestal brought Isabella immense satisfaction, thinking she
had finally dragged Natalie into the abyss.
But who would have thought…!
The truth brought by Rebecca and the results of Yuvan’s reexamination of the information constantly
inflicted unbearable pain on her.
Isabella only felt disgust when she heard Lily’s words.
Seeing how Isabella remained silent and cold, Lily felt displeased but didn’t say much.
Soon, someone from inside came out and respectfully approached Isabella.
“Ms. Morgan, please come in,” he said, courteously opening the car door for her.
Lily allowed them to take Isabella inside. In her view, the hatred between Isabella and Natalie was
irreconcilable, and Natalie suffered each time Isabella made an appearance.
So, she felt at ease letting Isabella go in alone.
As for whether Isabella would get hurt facing Natalie alone, that wasn’t her concern.
In fact, Lily wouldn’t mind if Natalie managed to hurt Isabella. That way, Cedric would be driven further
away from Natalie.
Hillside Villa’s lights weren’t too bright but provided the perfect ambiance for Natalie.
Natalie sat on the couch in the living room, cradling her little pig to her chest. She exuded a unique
elegance, appearing serene and relaxed amid the chaos.
Even though Isabella was blind, she could sense Natalie’s tranquil life in the midst of this turmoil.
At this moment, Isabella wondered.
If it weren’t for Isabella and her mother, would Natalie still be happy with both her parents by her side?
Would Natalie have avoided the disdain from the Johnson family and prevented Isabella from taking
advantage of her vulnerability?
But everything was just a hypothesis,
The harm she inflicted on Natalie had already been done.
“Why do you look even thinner? Is pregnancy so tough?” Natalie asked in an unpleasant tone.
Isabella’s attire today was interesting. She wore a form–fitting dress that showed no signs of her
pregnancy.
When Isabella heard Natalie’s words, she was stunned. Then, she said with an unprecedented
calmness,
I’m not pregnant.”
Natalie was taken aback at Isabella’s reply.
Isabella wasn’t pregnant?
She looked at Isabella, then at her belly. Indeed, there was no visible sign of pregnancy.
“Hah.”
Isabella remained silent.
“I don’t know which part of what you said is true anymore,” Natalie said.
Isabella had told Natalie she was pregnant before this, but now she said she wasn’t.
What kind of trick was she playing now?
Natalie was sure Isabella was planning something whenever she did something like this.
Isabella had always been a crafty woman. Who knew what she was up to now?
“I am very sorry!” Isabella suddenly said.
Natalie was speechless.
An apology?!
Natalie was even more shocked by the apology. She had never expected Isabella to apologize to her. It
was impossible to even think of it happening!
But now, she had…?!
Tell me, why are you here?”
To be precise, Natalie wanted to know Isabella’s current motive. In Natalie’s opinion, Isabella always
acted differently from the norm if she was up to something unusual.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow was no exception.
“Nothing ever happened between me and Cedric,” Isabella said.
Natalie was speechless.
This woman!
Nothing ever happened?!
Natalie was at a loss for words regarding Isabella’s statement.
How many times had something happened?
In her previous life, Isabella sent her photos of her and Cedric numerous times to force Natalie to back
off.
There were also countless surveillance shots of the two leaning on the sofa or embracing in bed.
Each time after those photos, Cedric would return in an exhausted
d state.
Natalie had almost forgotten about all of that. She had forgotten how she felt when Cedric returned
home
in that state.
Actually, forgetting that man would be a better thing. After all, it meant she wouldn’t feel the pain
anymore.
And now, Natalie had truly let go!
Yet, this woman came to tell her there had never been any relationship between them?
“I don’t even know how to respond to that statement,” Natalie said coldly.
How should she approach this?
Clearly, Natalie didn’t want to think about it. She didn’t know what happened this time around.
After two lifetimes, Natalie had lost track of how she had survived those hellish moments.
And now that she had finally crawled out of it, Isabella casually waitzed in and claimed there had never
Natalie wanted to laugh, but it was stuck in her throat.
“Sis…”
Natalie was silent. When she heard how Isabella addressed her, her mind went blank.
Then, a sharp glint appeared in Natalie’s eyes as she looked at Isabella.
Before she could say anything, Isabella said, “Forgive him,
okay?”
Forgive Cedric?
At this point, explanations were futile.
However, Isabella was only here to tell Natalie the essential point–that the relationship between
Isabella and Cedric wasn’t what everyone thought it was and that Isabella had indeed caused the rift
between
Natalie and Cedric.
Natalie pursed her lips and stared at Isabella.
She was shaken inwardly, but her eyes remained sharp.
She didn’t know what had happened to Isabella during this period nor what caused such a change in
her.
Of course, all of this held no significance for Natalie.
“Everything that happened in the past was my fault. I was wrong,” Isabella continued.
“You were… wrong?” Natalie finally spoke, her tone dripping with sarcasm.
What was that supposed to mean?
What could make these people admit their mistakes? Especially Isabella, who always made it seem as
if
the entire world owed her an apology.
In such a scenario, what did Isabella do wrong?
“Yes, I was wrong. I apologize.”
“Cut the crap and tell me why you’re really here!”
Every time Isabella appeared, Cedric would always be tense when he next saw Natalie.
Natalie had become accustomed to it, but Isabella’s unusual behavior this time marked a significant
departure from the norm.
“I came here to apologize.”
“Is that so?” Natalie’s cold tone was laced with irony.
Clearly, she wasn’t inclined to believe Isabella’s statement. She couldn’t believe it either. Trusting
someone who appeared with such a colossal agenda after all that had happened was next to
impossible.
“I know you don’t believe me. If I could, I would also like to apologize to Aunt!” Isabella declared.
With these words, the air around Natalie instantly turned icy again.
Aunt? She was referring to Natalie’s mother!
Natalie’s mother was a topic of pain in her life that she never wanted to touch.
Once upon a time, her mother was a happy woman, and her father was a good man.
Watching Natalie gradually fall from her pedestal brought Isabella immense satisfaction, thinking she
had finally dragged Natalie into the abyss.
