Chapter 327 Imminent Crisis

Watching Natalie turn around, her firm and distant figure seemed to carry a hatred transcending lifetimes.

Even if it required a thousand different methods, they must separate!

Thinking of the hatred brought about by another life, Cedric stiffened. He stood in place with a hint of hurt in his eyes.

tone.

This reminder instantly brought Cedric to his senses.

Indeed, that person…!
