Chapter 285 The Puppet Master

When Isabella heard Natalie’s words, she stiffened and turned pale.

At this moment, Isabelle pondered a question in her mind.

Was she the devil in Natalie’s world, or was Natalie the devil in Isabella’s world?

She had always been intent on destroying Natalie’s life.

However, Natalie seemed more like a nightmare and a devil in Isabella’s life now!

“Go back and take good care of yourself. Don’t let the child in your belly be scared prematurely. After all, I have no goodwill towards you,” Natalie said coldly.

Her coldness made Isabella keenly feel her hostility. There was even a sense of dread creeping up her spine.

Yes, dread!

Isabella stood up with clenched fists as she trembled. Looking towards Natalie, she finally hissed through gritted teeth, “Natalie, just you wait! Things between you and Cedric are impossible!”

Natalie remained silent. Obviously, she didn’t want to dwell too much on this issue. These matters had ended for her long ago and were meaningless.

Isabella groped her way to the door. However, being in an unfamiliar place, she couldn’t find it. She bumped into the coffee table’s corner several times or collided with the sofa and stumbled on the ground awkwardly.

Natalie coldly watched her every move.

Isabella screamed hysterically and even resorted to hitting herself in anger. Evidently, Isabella didn’t want to display such a disheveled appearance in front of Natalie, but she was powerless to do anything right now.

This sense of helplessness fueled Isabella’s self–loathing.

Natalie showed no inclination to help Isabella in her sorry state. It was like watching herself in her previous life when Isabella had stolen her eyes.

And now, just like Natalie’s former self, Isabella thrashed and struggled in the darkness, helpless and frantic.

At that time, Natalle had screamed in despair in the darkness but got no response from the

After thirty minutes, Isabella was in a sorry state and covered in sweat.

When Wendy entered with some documents, Natalie finally said, “Bring in the woman who came with her.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Wendy gave Isabella a cold glance and then left.

Lily quickly entered.

Seeing Isabella in such a sorry state, Lily glared at Natalie fiercely, “What have you

her?!”

“Lily.”

“Let’s go!” Upon hearing Lily’s voice, Isabella felt like she had caught a lifeline. Though she usually detested Lily, she didn’t want to stay here for even a moment longer!

She just wanted to leave this place quickly.

Lily approached with concern. “Miss.”

She grabbed Isabella’s hand.

At this moment, it seemed like Isabella had found guidance. Her previously frenzied emotions

also stabilized. Lily glared fiercely at Natalie and then led Isabella away.

As they reached the doorway, Natalie finally asked, “Isabella, do you regret it?”

Isabella halted in her tracks.

Regret?

Although Natalie didn’t explicitly mention what she was referring to, Isabella understood.

Natalie was asking about the incident with her eyes.

At that time, Cedric was about to discover that Isabella had been pretending to be blind to frame Natalie.

She had been too naive back then.

Isabella thought that all she had to do was make it the truth, and Natalie wouldn’t be able to. escape Cedric’s clutches!

However, she had overestimated Ivan’s importance to Cedric and underestimated Natalie’s position in Cedric’s heart.

Cedric’s hesitation had given Natalie the time she needed to escape, ultimately leading to the
