Chapter 298 Intentionally Wearing Maternity Clothes

As the man finished speaking, Isabella could distinctly feel the weight of his breath from the other end

of the phone.

Her own breath tightened in response.

Yes, it wasn’t just Cedric, but also… Natalie!

Otherwise…

She couldn’t understand why this person always got involved with Cedric and Natalie and took action

against Cedric whenever they were together.

If it was only hatred for Cedric, then couldn’t this person have ended everything during Cedric’s two

years in prison?

‘Bella, you’re really such a naughty girl, hmm?” the man on the other end of the phone said, his tone

both tempting and filled with a sense of danger.

But it also carried a warning, tinged with a threat.

Isabella remained silent.

Before she could speak, the man continued in a coaxing tone, “Go. Don’t disappoint me.

It was more of a threat than coaxing. Without waiting for Isabella to say anything more, he hung up.

He didn’t directly answer Isabella’s question, but it definitely strengthed her guess.

There was definitely a deep enmity between him, Cedric, and Natalie!

Hillside Villa was dimly lit.

At the dinner table, the butler announced that Isabella had arrived.

Natalie paused in her actions when she heard that. Upon hearing Isabella’s name, Lydia and Kyla

couldn’t help their expressions from darkening.

Evidently, the people caring for Natalie already knew what kind of existence Isabella was in Natalie’s

world.

“Miss, I’ll get her to leave,” Lydia said respectfully as she approached Natalie.

Natalie frowned, glancing at Lydia. Especially seeing Lydia’s vigilant expression, she knew that Heather

must have briefed her extensively.

Thinking of her uncle’s words earlier, Natalie put down the spoon. She wiped away the stains. from her

mouth with a napkin and said to the butler, “Let her in.”

“Miss.” Lydia’s tone tightened.

After all, Heather had given them strict instructions about Isabella. Lydia and Xyla were reluctant to

Isabella in, as it might affect Natale’s emotions.

However, Natalie said, “Lydia, I understand my int’s concerns, but now I am not just the Jarvis family’s

young lady.”

Natalie emphasized the latter part of her sentence

It had been two years.

In these two years, she had been treated as a young lady of the Jarvis family.

Natalie still didn’t know what had happened between Stephen, Heather, and Winona two years

ago.

It had been significant enough that Winona hadn’t returned home until now.

Before, their relationship was relatively good. But in these two years, their contact had Increasingly

less. Even when they did communicate, Winona avoided many questions.

It was as if they were guarding a secret from her.

But… not just towards her. It was as if they were keeping it a secret from everyone.

Soon, Isabella was led in. Lily, who was usually by her side, was absent. Isabella wore loose- fitting

clothes that hung on her as if it had been draped over her body.

However, it also made it easy for people to see that it was… maternity wear.

There was a glint of darkness in Natalie’s eyes at the sight.

“I didn’t expect you would be willing to see me,” Isabella said.

The servant who supported Isabella stood a short distance away.

Natalie picked up the glass in front of her and took a sip. She didn’t respond to Isabella’s words but

instead asked, “Have you eaten?”

“Not yet.”

Natalie was silent. Clearly, she didn’t expect Isabella to answer this way. The darkness in her eyes

deepened.

“If you haven’t eaten, have something. The dishes here aren’t specifically filled with nutrients required

for pregnancy, so I don’t know If you’ll be able to stomach it,” Natalie said flatly.

It was at this moment that Natalie completely understood that she.. truly had no feelings for

Cedric.

If there was even a hint of emotion, she would definitely have someone throw Isabella out.

But there was none!

She only felt a little uncomfortable seeing Isabella in maternity wear. After all… their past interactions

were so intense.

But it seemed that all they had left was the past.

Isabella didn’t hold back after that. After the servant helped her sit, she was served some

dishes.

After taking a few bites, Isabella smiled bitterly. “You’re really doing well now, huh?”

Natalie was silent and didn’t respond to Isabella’s words.

After putting down the cup in her hand, Isabella’s chest felt a bit painful.

Even with her eyes covered, Natalie sensed something different from her. She was giving off a sense

of resignation, fear, and… loneliness.

In the past, Isabella’s hatred towards her was hysterical. It was hard to believe that now she couldn’t

sense any resentment from Isabella.

“Go on, then. Why are you here?” Natalie got straight to the point.

They didn’t have much of a friendly relationship, especially after the unpleasant incident in the office

where they clashed.

However…!

Whenever they met in the past, Isabella would always demand Natalie leave Cedric or insult

her.

But Isabella didn’t do any of those things today!

Isabella just stared silently in Natalie’s direction. The air around her was heavy.

Natalie raised an eyebrow, “Did you intentionally wear maternity clothes to show me?”

Isabella had just announced her pregnancy in Natalie’s office. Now, with barely a visible bump, she was

wearing maternity clothes.

Also, the air Isabella gave off now was completely different from when she had been at Natalie’s office!

Lily had been there, and Isabella had been so intense. Now… it seemed like she was holding

something back

“You figured it out!” Isabella spoke, her tone even more incomprehensiblely bitter.

“Isabella.”

“Who’s behind you?” Natalie asked bluntly.

Last time, Stephen mentioned that Isabella might have had some ulterior motives in approaching

Cedric at the beginning. He had implied that there was someone behind Isabella pulling the strings.

But Stephen couldn’t confirm the person’s identity.

Now that Natalie was seeing Isabella again, she wondered if there really was a conspiracy… Or had

Isabella really changed?

caulell

When Natalie said that, she saw Isabella’s pale face freeze momentarily,

Natálie was silent.

So, there was someone?

“Who is it?” Natalie asked sharply.

Isabella was sitting opposite Natalie, and she tightened her grip on the spoon. Her trembling white

knuckles indicated that she was currently suppressing something with great effort.

Natalie never acknowledged Isabella as her sister, nor did she ever care about their blood ties. Like

any normal person, she regarded Isabella’s existence as an indelible stain and wished to avoid any

interaction with her.

However, Isabella suddenly appeared by her side like a shadow accompanying her everywhere!

Wherever Cedric appeared, Isabella was bound also to be there.

And wherever Natalie was, Isabella could easily infiltrate.

Such stubborn persistence!

It was no wonder Stephen felt something was amiss in the background.

Stephen wasn’t the only one. Natalie also felt it now.

Isabella!” Seeing how Isabella remained silent, Natalie’s tone became sharper.

But the next moment, Isabella took a deep breath and fiercely slammed the spoon on the table.

“Natalie, would you believe me?”

Believe you… what?”

“I actually…”

But at this moment, Isabella paused, forcefully restraining herself.
