Chapter 9 Interrogation
In the afternoon, Cedric returned home.
After making several phone calls in his study, he left the room.
Natalie was dressed in casual attire, and she looked very demure. She held a cute piglet in her arms. It
was dressed in a beautiful little dress, and it was even so well–groomed!
Cedric approached her and snatched the piglet from her arms. He threw it onto the sofa without
hesitation.
Natalie glared at him, unable to contain her anger.
So, Isabella had been kidnapped, and he was here to take his anger out on her?!
“What do you want?”
“I have questions for you.”
“If you have questions, just ask. Why throw Ginger around?”
Cedric’s anger resurfaced again. He was worried, yet this woman was actually quarreling with him over
a
pig?! 1
She really could make his emotions spiral out of control at any moment!
He sat down and threw the piglet further away.
Natalie narrowed her beautiful eyes and silently picked up the piglet to soothe it in her arms.
Follow current on NovelEnglish.net“Shh, darling. Let’s not argue with crazy people.”
Her actions only made the already angry man even angrier.
“You saw Isabella today. What did you
talk about?”
He couldn’t hide the anger in his tone.
Natalie looked at him, a sharpness glinting in her eyes.
That was the tone she was waiting for.
In her previous life, he rushed back just as urgently when Isabella was kidnapped.
Just like now, he used the same tone to interrogate her.
At that time, she was heartbroken that he would question her for another woman.
Now, her heart was as cold as ice.
“I don’t think you should ask me what we talked about. Instead, you should ask your sister what she
said
to Isabella!”
“What do you mean?”
Natalie raised her voice, “What do I mean? Cedric, what are we? Why are you here questioning mel
because of another woman?”
Her petite stature and the way she flared up, made Cedric’s heart tighten.
It also cleared the haze of anger in his eyes for a moment.
It had been ten years between them… and now he was questioning his own wife for another woman?
Taking a deep breath, he pushed away the anger and said in a softer tone, “Nat, Isabella has been
kidnapped.”
“So?”
“You met her today.”
“And?”
Natalie was waiting for him to continue.
Would he do the same as before?
Would he accuse her of kidnapping Isabella?
In her previous life, what had he said?
When he questioned her, her first words were, “It wasn’t me.”
To which Cedric had replied, “I understand you’re upset, but this is all a misunderstanding. Tell me
where
she is.”
At that time, he had firmly believed that Natalie was responsible for isabella’s kidnapping Even now,
Natalie vividly remembered his resolute conviction back then, and the chill in her heart grew stronger.
Indeed, being in control made a difference.
The once furious man stood up and spoke urgently. I’m leaving. You don’t need to wait for me for
dinner
Follow current on NovelEnglish.netNatalie watched Cedric’s unsteady figure as he left and closed her eyes.
That was her husband, huh?
And if she wasn’t mistaken, he was losing control… over Isabella’s kidnapping.
Once, she had been the only one in his eyes.
Even if she accidentally cut her finger while peeling an apple, he would nervously observe her for two
or three days to see if there were any aftereffects.
But now, this devotion no longer belonged to her.
Two hours after Cedric left, Rebecca called.
The moment Natalie answered it, Rebecca started chiding her, “Do you even have the dignity of being
the
Johnson family’s young mistress? Do you realize that this could cause a drop in the stock prices? Do
you
know how much the company will lose?”
Natalie remained silent.
“I’ve told you before, it’s normal for someone like Ced to have extramarital affairs.”
Natalie didn’t watch the news, but she knew the media frenzy outside was in full swing. Her enemy’s
calculated moves left her with no chance to react.
In her previous life, she had been driven insane like this.
At that time, she had been submerged in the grief of losing Cedric, without the experience of dealing
with the overwhelming public opinion.
Now, everything was repeating itself, but she… she no longer felt the panic and fear she once did!
