Chapter 176 Revealing the True Colors

What does it feel like to have someone practically hold one’s life in their hands?

Natalie had already thoroughly experienced it!

Back when she was struggling in the Johnson family, life was tough, But at most, it was the pain of a wounded heart and the days of being mocked by Rebecca.

At least back then, there wasn’t much to worry about.

Now, she had her uncle, who was a strong support.

Yet, Cedric had turned his attention to her after he settled Isabella’s matters, and had managed to reduce

her to this state!

Natalie had to admit that the feeling was truly unpleasant!

“Sit down and eat properly!”

The two stared at each other.

Natalie was full of anger! On the other hand, Cedric was smiling calmly.

But in that smile, there was a clear threat.

Natalie sat down. She picked up her knife and fork, stabbing fiercely into the food on her plate. She ended up with a mess on her plate that looked terrible at a glance.

Cedric glanced at her and said, “There’s no need to be so angry.”

“Cedric, my uncle is not someone you can deal with as you please. Just wait and see what happens!”

“Sure, I’m waiting.”

The man didn’t take her threat seriously at all.

This made Natalie feel powerless.

Just when she was about to say something, the man’s phone rang. With just a glance, Natalie recognized

the number.

It was… Isabella’s!

When Cedric saw the number, his expression changed.

Natalie thought he was going to answer, but instead, he flipped the phone over.

Natalie smirked, “Looks like she’s not gone forever, huh?”

‘Arrangements have been made for her. You don’t have to worry about it,” Cedric replied calmly.

“Really? Are things really settled?”

At the moment, it didn’t look like everything was sorted out.

Cedric didn’t know why Isabella was calling at this time. But since Rebecca had assured him the family would take care of her, he had nothing to worry about.
