Chapter 119 Unacceptable Relationship
Isabella was feeling extremely uneasy about the loopholes in the situation.
In Elegance Bay, there was a complicated look on Natalie’s face after hearing the results of Stephen’s
investigation.
For a long time, she couldn’t calm down.
She looked at Stephen and mumbled in an almost inaudible voice, “My dad’s daughter?”
“Yes.” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“She’s my… younger sister?”
“Yes.”
“My dad had a mistress?”
“Yes,”
Natalie was speechless.
Then, that meant…!
“They’re the ones who drove my mother to her death?”
“Yes!”
Natalie fell silent again, feeling like a cold tide had engulfed her entire world.
She knew…
She had always known about how her father had died in an accident and how her mother’s extreme sorrow led to her demise. After that, her grandmother also passed away after being unable to bear the
pain of losing her daughter.
Since then, she had been living alone. She had relied on the assets her parents left behind to support her education. She had always believed that her parents were deeply in love and their deaths were a misfortune.
But now. I
Stephen watched the various emotions flashing on Natalie’s face. He was a man who was usually
nt knew about it, she didn’t want me to tell you. But you…”
Stephen trailed off, not knowing how to continue the sentence.
The events from those years had remained undisclosed until now, and the investigation had only unveiled the significant hidden truths
At that time, Natalie was still a child and had little understanding of the affairs between adults.
Now, she looked at Stephen in a daze.
“So, it was my dad who had an affair. Yet, my mom got into trouble for confront that woman?”
Her voice carried a hint of pain.
Just moments ago, Stephen had revealed everything he had found during the investigation, as Natalie
insisted on knowing the detail
Stephen knew that if he didn’t tell Natalie the truth, she would eventually find out from some other source
Isabella was the child of Natalie’s father and another woman Dominic Walker had an affair with a widow
who already had a son
Yes, the woman had been a widow
Then, she gave birth to Isabel
When Natalie’s mother, Selena Jarvis, found out, she confronted the woman. Unexpectedly, the woman
had a fiery temper. She considered herself humiliated and committed suicide!
“What right does she have to hate me? Natalie hissed in anger as she stood up from the sofa.
That woman had taken her own life!
After that happened, Dominic blamed Selena for her alleged malicious actions. He distanced himself
from her and then eventually abandoned his career to travel. In the end, he met his end in a fatal car
accident.
Overwhelmed by grief, Selena also passed away shortly after. Thinking about it logically, Natalie was the
one who should resent Isabella’s mother.
ter all, to those who knew about these affairs at the time, it was your mother who drove that woman to
her death,” Stephen explained.
mom isn’t that kind of person Natalie stated without hesitation
Besides, given the circumstances at that time…!
With Dominic having a child outside their marriage, no one could imagine Selena’s despair. In that case, it
was only normal for conflicts to arise between Selena and Dominic’s mistress!
What they hadn’t anticipated was the other woman’s death.
“But Isabella thinks otherwise,” Stephen remarked.
Speaking of Isabella, Natalie had initially not cared much about this woman.
Now that she knew the truth…
“As expected of a mistress‘ daughter!”
Stephen was silent.
“It’s no wonder everything she does now is aimed at having Cedric destroy me,” Natalie continued.
It was things that Isabella wished Dominic had done to Selena.
Since it never happened, Isabella wanted Cedric to carry it out on Natalie instead.
Natalie closed her beautiful eyes. When she reopened them, a sharp glint flickered in her gaze.
“Nat.”
“Hmm?”
“I think you shouldn’t get involved in this matter. I’ll handle it for you…”
“No need!” Natalie interjected without hesitation.
The revelations from Stephen tonight had left her overwhelmed. She needed time to process it all before
planning her next move.
it would
When she sensed Isabella’s hatred toward her, she initially thought it was because of Cedric and it
only be because of him.
But she had never imagined that it would be due to events from so many years ago.
And Isabella turned out to be her… sister!
Of course, she wouldn’t acknowledge this relationship. She even felt that sharing the same blood with
Isabella made her dirty.
She closed her eyes again, concealing the rage that burned brightly beneath her eyelids!
Nat. Stephen sensed the tension in her and called out with concern.
When Natalie opened her eyes again, it was clear and calm. “I’m fine.”
She claimed to be fine, but those around her knew better. Isabella was her half–sister, born of the same
father but a different mother,
Because of what happened back then, Isabella hated Natalie’s mother. It was originally intended as an act of revenge on Selena. But since she was dead, Isabella shifted the focus of vengeance onto Natalie.
“According to my sources, Isabella’s first action upon reaching adulthood was to investigate your father’s
assets.”
“His assets?”
“Yes.” Stephen nodded.
Hah!
Natalie sneered.
“She’s an illegitimate child, yet she wants to have inheritance rights? She wanted to break my
heart, but she’s miscalculated!”
mom’s
At that time, Natalie didn’t know the reasons for her mother’s actions. Selena had persuaded Dominic to sign a property transfer agreement and had transferred all their marital assets into Natalie’s name. Selena
then designated all those assets as Natalie’s growth fund.
As a result, Natalie received a monthly sum of money after her mother’s death, enough to sustain her life
and education. Reflecting on it now, her mother probably knew about the other woman when she set up
that agreement.
“Now that I think about it, who knows why that woman died?”
A widow!
A widow who claimed to have been humiliated and committed suicide because of that?!
Instead of that, Natalie believed that the woman might have gone crazy after seeing Dominic transfer all the assets to Natalie’s name.
Stephen sighed. “What happened on your end?”
spent all that money by the time I turned 24. Besides, my father isn’t exactly a tycoon. How much wealth could he possibly have?”
That was the truth!
Otherwise, why would there be just enough to support Natalie’s education?
To put it plainly, it was because there wasn’t much money to begin with.
Yet, Isabella probably thought there was a lot left.
“Based on what I’ve uncovered, Isabella hasn’t been living well all these years after her mother’s death.”
Hasn’t been living well?
It was karma!
The retribution for that woman fell on Isabella since she died.
Although she now knew that she was related to Isabella, Natalie had no sympathy for this younger sister of hers who had appeared out of nowhere.
This night, Natalie couldn’t sleep.
She tossed and turned, thinking about what her uncle had said.
Isabella’s existence, her past life, her present life–all these things merged into one big jumbled thought.
In the end, they all turned into nightmares.
They intertwined with everything related to Cedric, making her restless in the deep night.
