Chapter 386 The Proof from Yesterday

After meeting Caleb, Natalie headed straight to Versant Villa in Hillside Estate, where Bianca. was

waiting

When she arrived, she saw Zane getting into a car.

Zane looked dignified and imposing, and he was wearing a dark windbreaker. He exuded a chilling

aura, his gaze cold and distant.

This vibe was unique to the Entes family. Natalie had felt it before from the fifth and sixth

lords.

Now, she was feeling it from the seventh lord, Zane Entes.

As the convoy passed by her, the car window slightly lowered. Zane’s cold, piercing eyes met hers,

sending shivers down Natalie’s spine.

This wasn’t the Zane she remembered.

He was no longer Zane Jacobs, her assistant, but Zane Entes, the Entes family’s seventh son!

The car halted, and he said in a deep voice, “She’s waiting for you.”

“I see,” Natalie responded, unsure how to address the current Zane.

Zane’s lips curled into a faint smile. At that moment, Natalie felt he was even more mysterious

than before.

Then, he left.

When Natalie entered the villa, she found Bianca preparing for the evening, despite their meeting being

scheduled for later. The festive decorations within the villa gave Natalie a sense of sadness as she

looked at Bianca’s lonely silhouette.

“Nat?” Bianca was surprised to see Natalie so early. As they embraced, Natalie struggled with her

conflicting emotions.

She felt she couldn’t protect Bianca any more.

Bianca ushered Natalie to a seat, had a servant prepare tea, and then personally brewed it.

Observing her skilled movements, Natalie was both amazed and touched. She’d always seen Bianca

as a strong, competent woman, not someone who would master such delicate arts.

“Why learn all this?” Natalie remembered when Bianca couldn’t even cook a proper meal.

Yet here she was, demonstrating newfound skills

Bianca remained graceful as she poured Natalie a cup of tea. Her smile was deep and

Natalie took a sip. She was no stranger to tea, and she was quite well–versed in it. Back when

she was with Cedric, she used to stay alone in Scarlet Villa. On the days she didn’t need to be at the

Johnson Manor, she used to indulge in her love for gardening and tea.

“Not bad,” Natalie remarked on the tea’s taste, her tone tinged with a hint of bitterness.

Bianca’s smile widened, and it was imbued with more depth and complexity.

“Did you already register your marriage?” Natalie asked.

“Yeah, we did it yesterday.” Bianca nodded in confirmation.

Natalie was silent.

They had gotten married just yesterday!

“Why?” Natalie asked hoarsely, her voice tinged with concern.

“Nat, as I told you before, I won’t let him get away…..

Bianca was referring to Malcolm!

Natalie’s heart clenched painfully when she heard Bianca’s words. “But you don’t have to sacrifice your

entire life for revenge.

“Nat, you just don’t understand.” Bianca interrupted Natalie before she could continue.

Natalie was silent.

No, she understood all too well!

She had once foolishly entered the maze of marriage for love!

She wanted to reciprocate Cedric’s kindness and had done everything to win his family’s favor.

But what did she gain in the end?

Before Natalie could respond, Bianca continued, “After Malcolm took me away, my future was

completely ruined. What do I have left in life?”

Natalie’s heart tightened further upon hearing Bianca’s pain. She had only known that Malcolm trapped

Bianca, but she hadn’t realized the extent to which he had destroyed her life.

Bianca would never have a chance to further her career again. Her achievements as a law firm partner

that she had obtained through her hard work… Malcolm had ruthlessly destroyed it all.

Even if Malcolm let her go in the end, Bianca’s expertise would no longer be useful.

When he was ruthless, he really went all out. It was to the point that Bianca didn’t have any room to

resist.

“Bia,” Natalie began, her voice filled with sympathy for Bianca, much like Bianca had shown her in the

past.

“Enough with the gloom,” Bianca interjected. “You have no idea how furious he was yesterday when he

found out about my marriage to his brother.”

Natalie was silent.

she dared not imagine!

It must have been a bloody battlefield, and only Bianca dared to do such a thing!

Bianca looked at Natalie and asked, “Nat, he didn’t cause you too much harm before, did he?”

Before?

During the time when Natalie had compromised with Malcolm to save Bianca, she had indeed given in

to many of his demands.

Yet,

Natalie had managed to infuriate him deeply then.

“Not really,” Natalie admitted, “Just a bit of trouble.”

But for Bianca, what was a little trouble?

It was only regrettable that she couldn’t ensure Bianca’s escape from Simeria to a life of freedom

despite her efforts.

“Don’t worry,” Bianca reassured, determination evident in her eyes. “No matter how much you’ve lost,

I’ll help you reclaim everything!”

“Bia, stop provoking him!” Natalie exclaimed.

Natalie’s heart tightened when she heard Bianca’s words. From an outsider’s perspective, Natalie saw

more than anyone the terrifying nature of Malcolm.

That man was detestable!

If she were in Bianca’s shoes, she’d wish nothing more than to see Malcolm suffer.

But more than anything, she wanted Bianca to be safe.

Malcolm was just too dangerous.

“Oh, you… You’re just too timid,” Blanca remarked.

Natalie fell silent..

At Bianca’s words, Natalie felt a suffocating sensation.

Was Bianca right? Was she always afraid of confrontation?

Back in the Johnson family, she had been cautious Even during her two years at Regal Horizons

International, every move she made was calculated and careful.

Had Cedric faced someone like Bianca back then, would Rebecca have dared to act so

recklessly?

Considering Bianca’s fiery temperament, she would have probably retaliated fiercely against Rebecca,

even if it meant angering Cedric.

“I’ve heard rumors about Isabella having a daughter. Is that true?” Bianca instantly turned serious at the

change in topic.

Natalie was silent.

Her already uneasy expression grew graver upon hearing Isabella’s name. The weight in her heart

grew heavier.

Bianca continued, “Don’t tell me that shameless man who once shielded Isabella now wants you to

accept her daughter?”

Bia!”

“Seriously?”

Natalie’s hesitation betrayed her true feelings.

Given the many years of understanding between them, Bianca could read Natalie with just a glance.

Natalie fell silent while Bianca’s anger climbed higher.
