Chapter 163 Not a Man

Another way!?

Without needing to think, Natalie knew it wouldn’t be a good option.

In the next moment, she heard Cedric say, “From today onwards, what I say goes. How does that sound

to you?”

“Do you think that’s possible?”

“Why wouldn’t it be? Right now, you have to listen to me, don’t you?”

Natalie gritted her teeth, wishing she could tear this man apart.

Cedric stood up. He looked at her infuriated expression, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her forcefully.

Natalie struggled, but the strength of his grip left her with nowhere to escape. She despised it–every

touch, every kiss!

Just the thought of him being intimate with other women made her want to scratch his face.

Finally, he let her go.

Natalie was about to raise her hand to strike him when she saw the threatening smirk on his lips.

In the end, she managed to control her trembling hand.

He patted her cheek, touched her jawbone, and said, “Behave, hmm?”

Natalie wished she could break his hand, but she couldn’t!

Watching the man arrogantly leave her presence and head towards the office door, Natalie closed her

eyes.

Unable to hold back, she asked, “Cedric, if it weren’t for my uncle, would you forcefully take me to the

operating table?”

In her previous life, that was the case–the difference between having her uncle’s protection and not

having it.

Even though she already knew the outcome from her past life, she couldn’t help but ask.

The man turned back to look at her. “If I wanted to, even ten Stephens couldn’t protect you.”

Such arrogance!

As the door closed, the man said, “I’ll pick you up after work.”

Natalie was about to curse viciously, but the man’s cold and stern departure made her swallow the words.
