Chapter 29 Expert in Arguing

Bianca and Natalie didn’t inquire further. As they walked out of the police station, the air around Natalie

was cold.

Bianca hurried to catch up, grabbing her wrist. “Nat.”

“I’m fine,” she said, but a storm was raging inside.

Why did Cedric ball those people out? In the past, regardless of who tried to harm Natalie, he would never show them any leniency.
