whole day, perhaps Natalie’s mood would have improved even slightly.

As a result, dinner had driven him to take Kayla out to eat again.

That was how the entire day had passed…!

“Do we really have to be like this?” Cedric approached her, crouching down to grasp her somewhat

cold

hand. The discontent in his tone was obvious.

Natalie looked coldly at the man before her, attempting to pull her hand away from his warm grip.

However, Cedric’s grip tightened even more.

“You brought this upon yourself!” Natalie retorted coldly.

Indeed.

Initially, they had kept their distance from each other. They both had their lives, and they didn’t bother

each other.

He wanted to be a good father to Kayla, and no one could interfere with that.

She stayed at Lotus Villa with her daughter.

Now he was telling her life was hard?

Hah!

“Nat,” his voice deepened as he squeezed her hand even tighter.

Natalie remained silent!

She merely stared coldly at him, the distance between them becoming more apparent to Cedric.

Now, an insurmountable gap seemed to exist between them.

There were so many explanations needed between them!

Despite wanting to speak, he found himself lost for words at Natalie’s icy demeanor.

Knock! Knock!

Sir…

Just as the tension between them grew, the butler’s voice interrupted from outside.

Cedric stood up, his face darkening noticeably with a hint of annoyance.

What’s the matter?”

“Ms. Kayla suddenly has a high fever. Her temperature has reached 39°C.”

Cedric was stunned, and his heart tightened at the news!

He glanced subconsciously at Natalie, who remained seated serenely, showing no reaction.

It was as if she heard something entirely unrelated to her.

Cedric moved his lips as if to say something but refrained, striding purposefully toward the door.

Natalie had to admit that the child’s health wasn’t great. From what Natalie knew, this had happened

several times in such a short span.

Just then, her phone vibrated.

Glancing at the caller ID, her already cold eyes grew even calder.-

“Hello.” She tried to suppress the emotions rising in his chest when she answered.

A deep voice came from the other end, exuding a sense of control, “Tell me, who is more important,

you

or the child?”
