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. However, this time, he had protected the very people who had sent her threatening letters, razor blades, and animal carcasses, as well as cursed her constantly on social media.

“What is Cedric’s intention?” Bianca wondered.

“Christina and Isabella probably bribed those people,” Natalie said, her voice trembling with anger.

Bianca’s temper flared instantly. “What is he thinking?”

What was he thinking? Natalie didn’t know.

During her absence over these three months, who knew what had happened? She thought that her

departure would have allowed the situation from her previous life to cool down, but new developments

had her…

Bianca was fuming. “I’ll make sure you win your divorce case. What the hell is wrong with that scumbag?!

didn’t know what to say.

What was ten years? In the end, this was how Cedric treated her!

Natalie wasn’t sure how she ended up back at Bianca’s place. Bianca had gone to work. Before parting, she offered to order food for her at lunch, but Natalie declined, insisting on cooking for herself.

Oink, oink.

There were faint sounds from the little pig at her feet. She lowered her gaze to see Ginger nudging her Slippers, its round body looking well–fed. It seemed that Zoe had taken excellent care of it while Natalie was abroad. When she left Scarlet Villa, she took nothing with her except this pig!

Bending down, she picked up the small creature and cuddled it in her arms. She patted its head.

“Are you hungry? You’ll be on a journey with me from now on.”
