Chapter 802 Zane and Bianca Rebecca was anxious upon learning of Cedric's hospital discharge. Due to his severe injuries and recent eye surgery, leaving the hospital was unwise.
What if there were complications? However, she knew deep down that no one could persuade Cedric to do otherwise besides Natalie. So, after numerous failed attempts to convince Cedric, Rebecca was again at Westhill | Enclave's entrance.
However, things were different this time.
This time, she wasn't allowed in.
"Why won't you let me in? I won't do anything," Rebecca protested.
Was it because Natalie didn't want to see her? That must be the reason. If Natalie hadn't given such orders, why would these people prevent her from entering? "Guards!" The gatekeeper's face darkened, indicating he had no intention of discussing matters with Rebecca further, nor would he allow her to cause a scene here.
Seeing the gatekeeper calling the guards over, Rebecca knew what they would do to her! A suffocating feeling overwhelmed her heart.
"'T just want to see your lady..."
Rebecca said.
To think that now Natalie, who was once her least favored daughter-in- law, had to be addressed with such respect...! The gatekeeper stood firm like iron, showing no signs of yielding. He simply said, "Our lady dislikes disturbances. Leave immediately!" Those words felt like needles piercing Rebecca's heart, intensifying her sense of humiliation.
Kyle's people had taken Christina away to Verde City, and now all Rebecca wanted was for Cedric to be all right.
She was willing to do anything to get him to return to the hospital.

Rebecca had once trampled Natalie underfoot, and now... Natalie's indifference made her feel so helpless.
Rebecca stood outside the gate for a long time. The cold rain fell on her body, and she shivered. However, the gatekeeper still wouldn't let her in.
Then, she saw with her own eyes as Austin returned with Luna.
Luna was in Austin's arms, happily licking a large lollipop. She looked adorable and content.
"Natalie..." At that moment, Rebecca felt desolate.
She had driven Natalie away, and in doing so, she had driven away her granddaughter. Now, her
granddaughter was in another man's arms, calling him "Daddy." And Rebecca...
She had always said she had nothing left in this world. But now, it seemed that her son was the one who was truly left with nothing because of her manipulations, right? In the afternoon, Natalie made some desserts.
Austin noticed that Natalie's favorite activity since coming here was cooking. She was actually a simple person. Because she loved to eat, her desserts turned out quite well.
"Mommy," Luna quickly ran to Natalie and reached out.
Natalie handed her a small cookie.
"Here, try this." Natalie's eyes were tender. She had no idea Rebecca had waited for her outside all afternoon in the rain.
Austin had completely blocked those kinds of unpleasant interruptions outside. No matter how miserable the people outside were, it had nothing to do with Natalie. And he could see that Natalie had no interest in getting involved in those matters.
Natalie was making every effort to sever ties with her past. Since he promised to protect her, he naturally wouldn't let those people and matters disturb her again.
"Wow, it's delicious!" Luna exclaimed as she ate Natalie's cookies, her little face lighting up with happiness.
Natalie picked up a cookie from the plate and offered it to Austin. "Would you like some?" From what she recalled, men generally didn't eat sweets. Whenever she cooked or baked, the one who most enjoyed them was Bianca. Every time Natalie was feeling down, she would buy a lot of groceries and cook a big meal at Bianca's place to lift her spirits.
"Of course." Austin took Natalie's wrist and ate directly from her hand.
Natalie was speechless, and her face instantly flushed red! "What are you doing?" Natalie protested.
This man was really something!
Her fingers were wet and sticky, and she could still feel the warmth of his lips.
"Luna is here..." "When children have proper guidance on how a harmonious family is supposed to be, they'll know how to love someone and understand what it feels like to be loved." Natalie was speechless.
This man...! However, she couldn't deny that understanding how to love someone and what it meant to be loved was a profound topic.
Up until now, she hadn't fully grasped it, resulting in her getting hurt repeatedly.
Was Cedric reluctant to let go like this? Of course he was! He didn't give up, no matter how much he was hurt. But Natalie hadn't seen him again since that day on the mountaintop.
She didn't respond to his messages, and his calls had been blocked. He had also been blacklisted on WhatsApp.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe couldn't send anything out. The only person he could meet now to get in contact with her was Austin, her current husband! Once, Natalie loved him so intensely that she could endure facing Isabella when she was by his side.
Now, he did the same.
However, Natalie was even more ruthless. She didn't even see him anymore.
In Simeria, the Entes family was now under Zane's complete control.
The other members of the Entes family gradually left Simeria. Regardless of how unwilling they were and how they had planned over the years, everything had ended completely.
It was time for those who had lost to leave! Malcolm was the first to leave.
Bianca was talking to Natalie on the phone. "It's okay, Nat. Don't worry about me."
"T'only considered the grudges between you and Malcolm before. 1 didn't expect there would be so.many other things afterward." Thinking about what Bianca had to face now, Natalie felt uneasy and unsure what to say.
Bianca fell silent.
It was over! But were things between her and Malcolm really over? She had retaliated heavily against the grievances between them before.
Who knew what awaited her now? "Are you still living in Verdant Villa?" Natalie asked before Bianca could speak.
And at the mention of the villa,
i Bianca's heart sank.
"Yeah," she responded dully, feelinga mix of emotions.
Upon hearing that Bianca was still living at the same place, Natalie couldn't help but feel her heart sink.
Zane had been in control of the Entes family for half a month now, so why was Bianca still at Verdant Villa?
