Natalie winced in pain. She raised her hand and slapped Cedric in the face.

The already tense atmosphere became even more stifling.

Cedric’s hand shifted from her jaw to her delicate neck, and his breathing was harsh.

“You’ve been acting strange all day. Explain yourself.”

At this moment, Cedric finally realized that Natalie wasn’t just playing around.

She had always been composed and knew her boundaries. If it were just a tantrum, she wouldn’t have pestered him like this, especially after he had ignored her in the morning.

Natalie glared at him. She held his wrist and said, “The clerk’s office closes in twenty minutes. We should handle the paperwork before it does.”

“Natalie Walker!” The man’s breath was unsteady with frustration.

Natalie forcefully pulled his hand down, pushing him away. However, he remained steady as a rock and unmovable. Natalie could do nothing else but glare angrily at him.

Cedric eventually lost his patience and decided to take her home. There was no way he could go to work after today’s commotion.
