Chapter 799 Prayers and Abandonment Austin would usually take Luna to school, and the child loved his company. Despite just starting school, there was already a parent activity that Luna had invited Austin to without telling Natalie! At this moment, as Natalie looked at the disheveled Rebecca kneeling before her, the tenderness she held for the child vanished completely.
"What are you doing?" Her tone was unprecedentedly icy.
Were these people not done yet?! Would they continue to haunt her wherever she went? Wasn't what she had done to Cedric
three days ago enough to make these people stay away? The thought only made the dangerous glint in Natalie's eyes deeper.
"Natalie, I'm the one who owes you apologies. It was all my fault... did all of it...!" Rebecca said in anguish.
Natalie fell silent.
"I was the one who caused your miscarriage. I knew about Christina's schemes against you, and I've always protected her. Cedric has always loved you. You've always been the one he wanted to protect the most!" Natalie's eyes flickered sharply.
Rebecca could see how cold Natalie's eyes were, but she could also see the undeniable pain in them.
"t's all my fault! 1 lost my mind back then and didn't know what I was doing...!" When she thought about Natalie thwarting all her plans back then, she couldn't allow Natalie to have a peaceful life in the Johnson family! It was the same in Simeria. When she found out that Cedric might be dead because of Natalie, she went mad and tried to take Luna away.
"It's my fault. All of this is my fault," Rebecca said in pain.

"I'm sorry for what I did to you. I acted like a lunatic towards you." "Hah..." Natalie finally spoke, but it was a mocking interruption to
Rebecca's words.
Hearing Natalie's cold laughter, the pain in Rebecca's eyes deepened even more! Natalie was truly cold now.
"I beg you, don't treat him like that. He loves you so much. He was even willing to lose his eyes for you." "Why aren't you acting crazy towards me now?" Natalie mocked.
As she listened to Rebecca's words, it was clear that Rebecca knew Natalie had inflicted those wounds on Cedric! Given Rebecca's previous temperament, she would have surely been hysterical with Natalie.
But what was this?
When Rebecca heard Natalie's words, she could only focus on how cold her tone was! She looked up to meet Natalie's icy gaze. "Are things between you and him really impossible?" Cedric was in so much pain. Apart from Natalie, who else could pull him out of that abyss? "Are you joking with me?" Natalie scoffed.
Had Natalie's behavior during this time been so indecisive that these people kept asking her such questions? "Don't be so cruel to him. He has always loved you so much and protected you," Rebecca cried.
In Rebecca's eyes, Cedric had always
loved and protected Natalie. Without Rebecca's interference, Natalie and Cedric's relationship would not have reached this point.
However, such words sounded absurd to Natalie.
"Hah... Is that so?" Loved and protected her, huh? Before Rebecca could respond, Natalie sarcastically retorted, "Then do you know how he protected Isabella and her child?" "n "n "He disregarded Luna's life for that child!" How could Rebecca claim such things?
How could she claim that Cedric loved and protected Natalie? Did these people not understand what those words really meant? How dare they say such things! When Rebecca heard how Cedric had disregarded Luna's life for Kayla's sake, her heart ached sharply.
"He was confused!" Why would he do such things if he loved Natalie so much? Even as a mother, Rebecca couldn't understand her son's actions in this regard.
"You should leave." Natalie's tone grew cold, indicating there was no need for further discussion between them.
When Rebecca heard Natalie's words, the pain in her heart intensified.
It was impossible! During Rebecca's time in Simeria, she already knew. But after seeing Cedric in such pain, she put aside her pride and begged Natalie to return to his side.
But looking at it now...! In fact, just coming in from outside, it was clear how much Austin cares about Natalie.
From the moment Rebecca stepped foot in this estate, she knew it was impossible. However, she still wanted to try. She was a mother and naturally couldn't bear to see her son trapped in the abyss.
But Natalie's attitude was crystal clear
now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Nat, regardless of everything that happened, I was the one at fault! T hope you'll have some consideration based on our past ties!" When Natalie heard Rebecca's words, she couldn't help but mockingly laugh.
Consideration? Their past ties? Who deserved consideration when it came to matters like this? N Naturally, only those who showed her affection and kindness then! But the things the Johnson family did to her in the past left her with no lingering affection.
In which case, why should she have any consideration for them?
Rebecca was in a daze. She didn't know how she left Western Mountain Enclave or how she returned to her residence.
Christina had been waiting for Rebecca. Cedric's people were here, ready to take her back to Verde City.
She couldn't go back to Verde City! Christina had thought that with so much time passing, she would definitely be able to stay by her brother's side as long as she dealt with Austin.
But she never expected that Cedric would still be so heartless towards her even after so much time had passed.
When she saw Rebecca, Christina cried out in pain. "Mom!" She didn't want to go back to Verde City. Just thinking about the time she spent there...
She absolutely refused to return there! Before Rebecca left, she said she would plead with Cedric and wouldn't allow Christina to return to Verde City.
After all, Rebecca had nothing inher life for a long time, and that kind of loneliness was extremely terrifying.
Christina said she would always accompany Rebecca. She wanted to impress Rebecca in this way, and she did. Otherwise, Rebecca wouldn't have spoken up for her.
But now... what was with Rebecca's expression?! Before Christina could figure out what happened, Rebecca said, "You should return to Verde City." Christina was speechless, and her mind went blank.
What?! "Mom?" Christina uttered in disbelief.
Rebecca wanted her to return to Verde City?!
