Ch. 111..120

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 111-Entwined in the Bonds of Collaboration Again “Do I still need to go?” Isabella asked with a smile.

At this moment, she keenly sensed the feelings emanating from Christina, and it was crystal clear!

There was a mix of fear and disbelief.

Indeed!

How could Christina believe it?

All those schemes against Natalie in the Johnson Manor over the years were nothing more than child’s play.

At this moment, Christina finally saw what methods were truly used when scheming against someone!

“You’re insane!” With that, Christina turned and left without a glance back.

The harsh clicking of Christina’s heels against the floor and the uneven shuffling revealed how badly she had been affected.

As Isabella listened to the fading footsteps, she let out a mocking and creepy laugh.

When paired with her eerie eye sockets, the entire ward seemed to have plunged into a terrifying hell.

Christina didn’t know how she left Isabella’s ward. She reached out to study her fingers, which had just caressed Isabella’s eye sockets.

“Ugh… Blargh..” When the image of Isabella in the ward flashed through her mind, she couldn’t help but vomit over the flowerbed.

Too ruthless!

Isabella was too ruthless!

That kind of ruthlessness was something Natalie lacked.

How hard would it be to drive a woman like this out of Cedric’s life?!

Especially now that Rebecca’s attitude towards Isabella had changed!

A hint of panic flashed through Christina’s eyes.

These past few days, everyone was busy. Cedric, especially, was dealing with a headache over the piece. of land next to Dragon Park.

The time given for the bidding this time was shorter, and they didn’t have sufficient time to prepare!

Natalie had also been buried in work these days. Fortunately, Cedric hadn’t appeared to disturb her. So, her preparations went relatively smoothly.

On the third morning, she drove to the site; today, she was in a Pagani since the Bugatti had been sent for repairs and would take some time.

Karina had arranged a car for her in the fastest possible time.

Unfortunately, when Natalie exited the car, she saw Cedric coming down from the Phantom he usually used.

The man’s gaze fell on her brand–new Pagani.

At that moment, anger flashed in his eyes!

“Why are you here? Cedric’s expression turned gloomy upon seeing Natalie.

The last time she was here, he had underestimated her!

Then, she easily took the bid for the eastern suburbs away from him for Irwin!

Compared to the gloomy atmosphere around him, Natalie was like sunshine as she casually waved the folder in her hand.

I’m working with Premier Garden!” As she spoke, Cedric’s face became colder.

Premier Garden Corporation…?

Again…!

Just like before, she was working with a competitor! She had actually managed to secure collaboration rth Premier Garden Corporation?!

His l*ps curled into a cold smile. “Whether your deal with them succeeds is yet to be seen.” “Haven’t you already seen my capabilities?” Natalie said arrogantly.

With how Cedric had spoken to her… She would make him eat his words today!

Over the years, she had always been a useless presence in front of him. It was time to make this man understand the dangers of the world.

Verde City used to be calm and peaceful in the past. Cedric’s reputation as the pride of the city made people admire him.

And then, a small studio like Natalie’s had completely shattered this balance.

“Natalie!” Cedric gritted his teeth when he saw her confident smile.

In response, Natalie turned around and left with her chin up in the air. She had no patience to deal with him now, giving off the impression that she was always busy.

There was a noticeable contrast compared to his previous attitude towards her.

But he had never been this impatient with her before.

This bid was different from the last one. Last time, they collectively screened submissions. But this time, each bidding company had to present their proposals individually.

In the waiting area, Natalie and Caleb sat together. The steaming coffee added a touch of warmth to the winter day. Caleb elegantly handed the coffee to Natalie.

“Care for some?” “Thank you,” Natalie said.

Cedric sat at the adjacent table, observing Natalie’s petite figure as she conversed with Caleb.

His expression became even darker.

What kind of person was Caleb?

Although no one openly discussed him, almost everyone knew that the Spencer family’s son was a man untainted despite being surrounded by temptations. He was a man who could maintain moral integrity in the face of adversity.

He was also affectionately known as the “Playboy“, a gentleman in elegant attire!

Why was Natalie associating with someone like him?

Clearly, Cedric had blurred the lines between Natalie’s personal and professional life. In short, as long as he saw Natalie standing with a man, he subconsciously assumed there was something between them.

“Mr. Johnson,” Yuvan stood behind Cedric and softly called out to him.

Cedric snapped back to reality, realizing that Natalie and Caleb were no longer there.

“Where are they?” “They’ve already gone inside,” Yuvan replied.

Cedric irritably lit a cigarette!

He waited outside for an hour. What was Natalie and Caleb discussing inside that required a whole hour for a proposal?!

When they emerged, they were smiling at each other!

This scene further aggravated Cedric’s already bad mood.

“Mr. Johnson…” “Let’s go!” Cedric said as he stood up, and Yuvan followed closely.

When they walked past Natalie, Cedric shot her a fierce glare. His eyes were filled with hatred, and he looked like he dearly wanted to tear her apart.

Natalie ignored him.

Beside Natalie, Caleb burst into laughter.

Cedric’s face grew even darker.

Ignoring Caleb, he walked straight in! Frivolous people like Caleb had never held any significance in his eyes.

So what if Caleb had spent a few years abroad? Did he think he could return and consider himself a real expert now?

There’s something interesting between you and him!” Caleb said to Natalie.

if you say so.

“Yeah! You’re divorced, but you seem to still be involved deeply!” “You’re imagining things!” Natalie hadn’t expected Caleb to laugh when Cedric passed them. The first time she saw him, Caleb was aloof, elegant, and undoubtedly associated with Irw novelbin But now, looking at Caleb, what he displayed was far from the simplicity she had perceived.

“Does Irv know?” Suddenly, Caleb asked this inexplicable question.

Natalie was momentarily puzzled.

Looking at Caleb, she asked with a hint of confusion, “What do you mean?” “Between you and Irv, isn’t it that kind of…?” The man gestured, and Natalie instantly understood.

Her smile disappeared utterly, and she turned calm and serious.

“Perhaps you’ve misunderstood. Mr. Frazier and I only have a working relationship.” “That’s strange! Irv doesn’t seem like someone who would meddle in others‘ affairs!” Natalie was silent.

It wasn’t like Irwin had meddled in the affairs of others, had he?

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 112-Making Cedric Lose Again What Natalie didn’t know was that Irwin was never one to meddle in others‘ affairs.

He had also never bothered to meet any business partners in person, regardless of who had introduced them to him.

Yet, not only had they met, but Irwin had also personally reviewed her proposal and even deliberately helped introduce businesses to her, whether intentionally or not.

The bidding was like a covert battle…!

The importance of the land next to Dragon Park for Cedric was self–evident, and the entire Johnson family was watching!

However, Natalie was equally determined.

Regardless of whether Cedric was invested in the land, she was only accountable to her own collaborator.

After three sleepless nights, her current appearance, if not for the thick makeup, would clearly reveal the strain on her face.

Of course, the result did not disappoint.

And here it was…!

The result was that….

Premier Garden Corporation won the bid!

At that moment, the atmosphere was even more solemn than the last time. Cedric exuded a chilling aura, while Caleb extended his hand to Natalie for a handshake.

Looking forward to working with you?” “Definitely looking forward to it!” Natalie said as she politely reached out her dainty hands to Caleb.

But before Caleb could grasp it, Natalie felt someone grab her wrist.

Before she could react, she staggered.

It was Cedrict man before her was radiating anger, and he wasn’t bothered to hide his emotions!

Natalie gave him an unpleasant look and said, “Cedric, let go of me.” However, Cedric was completely irrational right now!

He dragged her to his car and shoved her in. Natalie felt like a sack of potatoes as Cedric manhandled her into the vehicle.

As soon as she got in the car, Natalie tried to open the door on the other side to get out. However, the driver didn’t dare to allow it.

When Cedric and Natalie emerged from the bidding venue, the driver already saw Cedric seething in anger.

Natalie turned around and saw Cedric get into the car. The next moment, a force on her waist pressed her onto the back seat before she could struggle.

Meeting the man’s angry eyes, Natalie stiffened for a moment.

“What are you doing?” Did he want to vent his frustration by killing her?

After all, she had snatched two projects from him consecutively.

Even she might want to kill someone in his position, right?

But… “I got the project with my own capabilities. What’s with you? Can’t handle losing?” At this moment, Natalie felt like she was looking at a sore loser.

The man’s slender fingers swiped her delicate chin.

The strong scent of makeup wafted as his fingers, stained with white foundation, waved mockingly in front of Natalie’s eyes.

“Relying on your own capabilities, huh?” “Don’t women in your company also wear makeup?” What was there to mock about that?

Cedric didn’t feel anything when other women wore makeup, but he despised it when Natalie wore it!

why part of her delicate face was concealed by makeup, causing her to lose the natural beauty she once- The man’s fingers caressed her eyes, and his warm breath brushed against her cheeks.

However, this presence gave Natalie a sense of danger.

The next moment, she heard the man’s mocking voice, “I never knew your eyes were so repulsive, and these hands-” Smack!

Natalie slapped Cedric on the face with trembling hands, interrupting what he had been about to say.

In her past life, he didn’t find her repulsive.

In her past life, she never did anything to earn his disdain.

Yet, he still took away her eyes in the end!

Natalie was filled with resentment when she thought about all those things.

The next moment, Cedric harshly grabbed her wrists and pinned them above her head.

Looking into Cedric’s furious eyes, she asked, “What, are you really going to take me to the hospital by force?” “It seems like a good idea now!” Cedric said in a sinister tone.

Natalie was speechless.

At his words, her face turned pale!

Cedric said to the driver, “To the hospital.” “Cedric!” Natalie’s voice trembled as she called out.

Was he really taking her to the hospital?

Yes, he was!

In this life, many things had changed, and the dynamics between Cedric and her had changed as well.

In her past life, it was his men who took her to the hospital. But in this life, he was personally taking her to the hospital, and then…!

Then, the scenes from her past life forcefully entered her mind.

If you dare:

There is no relationship whatsoever between us. Why wouldn’t I dare?” Natalie fell silent!

So, was he doing this for Isabella now?

He said there was no relationship between them. He had said it so indifferently and nonchalantly.

dat Natalie looked at him. At this moment, it felt like she saw the Cedric from her past life. He had also been this way. The coldness and ruthlessness on his face overlapped entirely.

So, was the only difference between them that they were divorced now?

Would he still do everything as he had done in her past life without missing a thing?

The car had already started moving!

Natalie had no strength to escape, and Cedric released her.

He picked up his phone and called the hospital.

“Prepare for the surgery immediately. We’ve found a donor and are on our way to the hospital!” He said each word with such coldness.

Natalie’s heart was already cold, but it somehow felt even colder after she heard his words. Although she had been through this once before, she couldn’t calm herself when experiencing it again.

Cedric raised his wrist to check the time. “Yes. We’ll be there in about twenty minutes!

“…Yes, conduct all necessary examinations immediately and start the surgery as soon as we arrive!” Natalie simply stared at him!

At this moment, it felt like she couldn’t hear Cedric’s voice anymore.

There was a ruthless glint in his eyes and nothing else!

Cedric hung up the phone, and Natalie still stared at him. When he looked at her, all she saw in his eyes was ruthlessness.

Natalie felt a chill throughout her b*dy and struggled to regain her senses. struggling to find her own awaren Almost unable to hear her own voice, she asked, “Surgery?” This is what you owe her! The man’s tone was sinister and lacking any warmth.

Natalie was unaware that in his current state of intense anger, Cedric had no All the patience he had shown her before has now essentially vanished. The only thing on his mind wast how Natalie was out and about when she was supposed to be rotting in jail!

In Cedric’s view, Natalie would only obediently stay in Scarlet Villa once she lost her sight.

However, he wouldn’t even reassure her now that he would take care of her for the rest of her life!

Natalie felt an icy chill in her heart. With turbulent emotions, she turned her head to look out the window and silently sent a message to Karina.

“Hah, who will be able to save you today? Or rather, who would even come and save you?” Cedric was only putting on a show.

Did she really take all of that seriously?

Now, Cedric was cruelly determined to make Natalie see everything clearly.

In fact, he probably didn’t… He closed his eyes and concealed the storm surging in them.

The atmosphere between the two became ice–cold to the extreme!

No one spoke again.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 113-A Drama Queen Isaac rushed to the hospital when he received the message, thinking Cedric had really found a donor. He urgently arranged for Isabella to undergo an examination.

Upon receiving the news, Isabella immediately called Yuvan, From Yuvan, she learned that Cedric was bringing Natalie to the hospital.

A sense of triumph swept through her.

This darkness… would soon belong to Natalie!

Thinking about Natalie’s future miserable state, she felt delighted!

She knew Natalie wasn’t there willingly; she was too proud for that.

But that was exactly what she wanted to see–how much Natalie resisted and the pain she had to endure!

Being bound by her beloved man, taken to the hospital to donate her eyes to another woman… How did that feel?

Isabella really wanted to ask Natalie in person, to hear her hysterical pain with her own ears!

But it didn’t matter, there would be plenty of time for that in the future!

At the hospital entrance, Cedric forcibly dragged Natalie out of the car. Natalie looked at the majestic and elegant figure before her and asked softly, “Cedric, do you really have to do this?” Did he really have to go this far?

Her voice was gentle and faint.

The softness unintentionally crept into people’s hearts.

The voice in the depths of Cedric’s heart began to scream incessantly, begging him not to treat her this way.

However, in the end, the image of Isabella being badly injured flashed through Cedric’s mind–the wounds on her eyes, legs, and abdomen..

Those images constantly assaulted his sanity.

Eventually, he shoved away those feelings and tried his best to say indifferently, “Don’t worry. I’ll find a Natalie was silent.

“During this time, I’ll stay by your side every step of the way. I’ll personally take care of you and make sure you’re comfortable, okay?” With the harshest tone, he spoke the most sweetest words!

Natalie’s eyes turned red, and she shouted, “Go to hell!” She smashed her fist directly into the man’s perfectly sculpted face.

Cedric reached out and grabbed her wrist. Then, he pulled her into his arms. Holding her under his arm, he continued walking inside.

Along the way, Natalie didn’t stop struggling and fighting him!

When they passed by the hospital’s entrance, Natalie casually grabbed the trash can while exerting an unexpected amount of strength!

Then… she flung it all at Cedric.

Splash!

Bang!

At the hospital entrance, the cold wind blew fiercely!

All the passersby turned their attention to them, especially when they saw Cedric covered in garbage.

They gasped in shock.

Cedric’s face also turned icy.

He had a serious cleanliness obsession. He couldn’t imagine how dirty the trash can at the hospital entrance was!

“Natalie!” Cedric gritted his teeth, wishing he could tear her apart.

Natalie shook her hands. “Are you done going crazy?” “You chose this path! You divorced me-” “So I just need to give my eyes to Isabella? Do you think you’re so great? For Isabella, huh? You got together with her, and now you even want me to give up my eyes for her? Why don’t you- “Shut up!” Cedric interrupted Natalie’s words with a reprimand.

The hospital entrance was already bustling with people coming and going.

During this period, their affairs had become a hot topic in Verde City.

Was she trying to…?!

Seeing the cunning flash in her eyes, Cedric’s breath hitched.

She was doing it on purpose.

This woman was doing it intentionally.

She…!

Looking at the petite woman before him, Cedric felt like he was looking at a stranger. It was as if everything about her had sl*pped from his control.

“She took away my marriage, and now she even wants to take my eyes?” Natalie wiped away a tear and cried.

This scene effectively placed herself in the position of the vulnerable one.

A woman with no background marrying into a wealthy family and then ultimately forced into such a situation by the Johnson family?

Some people had already taken out their phones!

Cedric watched the scene unfold, his face getting darker. He wished he could tear Natalie apart, but he found himself unable to move.

Natalie cast a sidelong glance at the crowd and cried, “Cedric, I’ve already divorced you. I’ve given her the position of Mrs. Johnson. Why isn’t she satisfied?” “It’s fine if you don’t believe anything I say, but how long has it been since she went blind? There are top- notch ophthalmology teams worldwide! You can take her to them for an examination, right?” “Natalie, you-” “Mr. Johnson!” Just as Cedric was about to explode, Yuvan appeared behind him and stopped him.

Natalie watched as Cedric was about to explode with anger and felt a sense of satisfaction.

He wanted to provoke her, huh?

She would make sure that man would never dare to provoke her again!

Cedric endured continuously, but the veins popping on his temple showed how furious he was.

Natalie had utterly infuriated him!

Emitting a dangerous aura, he watched as Natalie ran away in tears!

At this moment, Cedric finally realized that the woman who had been by his side for ten years was a drama queen!

When Natalie tearfully recounted her plight at the hospital entrance, it caused a stir in Verde City!

The headlines read, “How Powerful Are Isabella’s Methods? To Force Mr. Johnson to Such Extremes?

“Hahaha!” Bianca burst into laughter upon seeing the news in Natalie’s office.

There was even a video!

Although Natalie was only crying softly in the video, it gave off a distressing vibe.

Natalie rolled her eyes at Bianca.

“Enough, you’ve been laughing for ten minutes!” “No, it isn’t enough! I can’t help but laugh every time I think of Cedric turning that shade of red!” Who was Cedric? No one in Verde City has dared to make him lose his dignity in such a way for so long!

“By the way, who had the guts to publish this? Aren’t they afraid of Cedric’s retaliation?” “It’s Karina’s account!” “Do you mean…?” “I bought the video and had it uploaded.” “Pfft! Cough Cough!” Bianca choked on the mouthful of water she had just swallowed.

Ruthless. How truly ruthless!

Isabella did it covertly, and now Natalie had learned it too. She even dared to use such underhanded tactics on Cedric, Natalie said, “Cedric has shut down those websites that previously released those things last time. Now, who would dare provoke him?” “No one would dare post anything, but there will always be people daring enough to comment, right?” “Bravo… Bravo!” Now, no one in the entire Verde City dared to casually publish anything related to the Johnson family.

But comments couldn’t be controlled!

If one person didn’t dare speak, what about the rest of the city?

When things had been covered up online, everyone in Verde City only dared to talk about it behind closed doors.

everyone started But now that there was actual content posted on the internet, to speak up.

And the public opinion… was against Isabella!

“I’m just using her methods and returning the favor! But it’s also improvised. There was no preparation done beforehand!” Natalie said while drawing sketches.

She disdained such underhanded tactics. Still, she also believed in fighting fire with fire.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 114-Can’t Calm Down Without a Showdown “Is Cedric furious now?” “Furious is an understatement!” When Natalie saw Cedric’s face at the hospital entrance, she knew he was ready to explode at any moment.

Thinking for a moment, Natalie said, “He probably has to put some effort into protecting Isabella now, right?” Isabella had dealt with the people who instigated trouble on her end previously, likely because she was worried that someone might uncover something if she didn’t.

However, there was no shortage of extremists in a vast place like Verde City. Even if Natalie didn’t do anything, wouldn’t someone else take action?

Those people might not dare to harm Cedric, but they wouldn’t be lenient with Isabella!

Considering Isabella’s previous actions that Natalie had exposed and the commotion that happened at the hospital entrance this afternoon, everyone would attribute the blame to Isabella.

“Will it be difficult for you?” Despite finding satisfaction in this, Bianca is still concerned about Natalie.

Cedric had always protected Isabella, However, he would never protect Natalie enough when Isabella hurt her.

Natalie shrugged nonchalantly. “Why do I have to worry? It’ll be peaceful for a long time now, just the way I want it!” Yes, after the incident at the hospital entrance today, Cedric should realize that Natalie was not someone to be trifled with.

Today, she had caught him completely off guard!

Now, looking at it, he seemed as foolish as a pig!

Natalie guessed right.

When Cedric saw this news report, he was so angry that he wanted to tear someone apart.

At this moment, Isaac was in his office. Looking at Cedric’s expression, Isaac felt the urge to escape.

Yuvan!” Cedric called as he seethed in fury.

This time, Natalie had firmly crossed the last line!

Yuvan stood respectfully on the side and bowed, “Yes, sir.” Tell all the companies cooperating with Natalie that working with her is tantamount to opposing me!” He refused to believe that her studio could be sustained with the support of just Apex Global and Premier Garden Corporation!

Isaac’s hands trembled in fear.

He looked at Cedric, “Are you trying to make her unable to survive in Verde City? Isn’t this too heartless!?” It shouldn’t be like this!

Cedric even called out Natalie’s name when he was drunk! He was that infatuated with her! How could such a man make such a determined decision?

Cedric narrowed his eyes dangerously.

“With a man who’s old enough to be her father supporting her, what is there to worry about whether she can survive in Verde City or not?” Isaac was speechless!

“Have you thoroughly investigated that matter?” Isaac wouldn’t believe it without evidence.

Why would such a proud woman willingly be with an older man?

“Is there a need to?” Cedric’s mood, which was already bad, became even worse when he thought of Natalie being with Stephen.

His emotions were out of control.

Stefan has many tricks up his sleeves. If you want to know, just get him to check. Don’t make a mistake, I’m telling you!” Isaac was a true friend!

In Cedric’s terrifying loss of control, Isaac could still offer such rational advice, showing genuine concern Especially concerning Isabella.

After seeing her twice at the inspection booth, he had a vague feeling that she was no ordinary woman.

Although she looked very pure, her aura was anything but.

Already angered and annoyed by Natalie, Cedric lit a cigarette. He took two deep puffs and told Yuvan, Go and handle it.” “Yes, sir!” After Yuvan left, Cedric took another harsh drag from the cigarette, his frustration evident in his expression.

Isaac asked, “Are you serious about this?” “If I don’t deal with her properly, I won’t feel better!” Cedric said harshly.

At the hospital entrance, he had seen the satisfaction in her eyes.

How had he ended up raising such a sly fox? He had pampered her to an outrageous extent over the years!

Isaac was silent.

Well, hearing Cedric say that made Isaac feel relieved. Cedric seemed really angry, but the things he was doing were mostly to scare Natalie.

Women were like that. If one couldn’t coax them, scaring them a bit was also good. As long as she behaved herself, there was no need to take it seriously.

But Natalie took it seriously!

Although Cedric was convinced that there was something between Natalie and Stephen, he called Stefan because there had been no results on Yuvan’s end.

If Stefan could find evidence of Natalie harming Isabella, then he would undoubtedly be able to find the true nature of the relationship between Natalie and Stephen in the shortest time possible.

“Yeah. Look into it as soon as possible!” Cedric was silent as he waited for the response from the other end.

“Yes. I mainly want to know the relationship between her and Stephen!” Cedric wanted to see why these two people would get entangled together.

He thought about what Natalie had gotten recently. She had gotten a place to live in Elegance Bay, a Bugatte… and now even a Pagani!

Isaac’s reminder made him feel that their relationship might not be as simple as it seemed.

After hanging up the phone, Isaac sighed in relief. “Stefan always moves quickly.” “Yeah.” “But haven’t you asked her personally?” Isaac asked Cedric.

And Cedric…!

His eyes revealed frustration. Every time, things between them would quickly escalate into a fight when it came to matters related to men.

Why bother asking directly?

They would just end up arguing.

Although he was still upset now, he said, “When you mentioned it, I also feel their relationship might not be as simple as it seems.” Stephen and Heather always had an affectionate relationship, based on the reports he had received. Heather would have made a scene long ago if Natalie was really Stephen’s mistress and had spent so much money on her.

Although Heather had no sons, she had a daughter. How could she allow a mistress to infringe upon her child’s rights?

“Yeah. I’m sure you’re just confused ‘cause she got you so worked up!” Isaac said after thinking for a while.

That statement was true!

During this period, Cedric was too preoccupied with anger to maintain rational thinking whenever it Involved Natalie.

Especially today at the hospital! The fact that he had been played by that sly woman made him even more furlous!

On the other side, Natalir was supposed to have dinner with Blanca, but Caleb called to celebrate their successful collaboration.

+15 BONUS According to common practice, she should be the one treating him. But given the situation with Cedric’s disturbance, Natalie almost forgot.

So when Yvonne called, she agreed without much thought.

“Bia, I have a social engagement tonight and can’t have dinner with you.” Blanca rubbed her somewhat tired face. “Although I’m happy to see how independent you’re being, your should also pay attention to your health.” “Yeah, I got it.” “Now it seems that I don’t have to worry anymore, even if Cedric or his family bullies you!” Seeing how Natalie dealt with every situation involving Cedric so calmly and smoothly, Bianca knew novelbin Natalie wasn’t someone who would take things lying down anymore.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 115-A Precious Gift Especially not after today.

Seeing Cedric in a sorry state today had lifted their spirits.

Natalie hugged Bianca, feeling touched. “Thank you.

During her most difficult times, before she found her uncle, Bianca’s strength and support reassured her.

It let her know she was not alone.

“Silly, why the need for thanks?” Bianca genuinely felt happy for her.

Being a strong and independent woman was good, even though it might make marriage more difficult.

Even though marriage was not necessarily the best thing to do in life!

But women who chose careers were generally indifferent to family matters.

If it weren’t for enough disappointment in men, who would be willing to stand up for themselves?

Things at the Johnson Manor were chaotic!

Cedric lost the land next to Dragon Park today, causing a stir in the Johnson family and making it the second time in a row that the Johnson family suffered losses.

Even though it wasn’t a huge loss, Rebecca was on the verge of hysteria when she learned that they had lost to Natalie again.

“That wretch! That bitch…!

Rebecca couldn’t find appropriate words to curse Natalie anymore.

Why did it have to be Natalie again?

Christina’s expression wasn’t great either. The sadness in her eyes revealed that she had something on her mind. Right now, her thoughts were not on Natalie but on Isabella.

Her eyes dimmed, completely ignoring how furious Rebecca had become.

When she was in the Johnson family, why didn’t she have the ability to snatch projects like this? Now, ‘s cousing trouble for the Johnson family after her divorcel “She’s relying on the fact that Ced won’t do anything to her for doing this! Does she think she’s so capable?!” Rebecca’s chest heaved continuously as she spoke. The more she thought, the more enraged she became.

As her emotions surged, she couldn’t catch her breath and started gasping for air!

The entire Johnson family erupted into chaos at this moment!

Outside, public opinion continued to attack Isabella. The previous attacks on Natalie were now directed at Isabella.

However, there was a difference… Before, Isabella had spent a large sum of money to hire people to pretend to attack Natalie.

Now, in Natalie’s situation, her experiences resonated with many women. There were many people voicing their support for her, all standing on her side.

Meanwhile, Natalie was no longer in the same desolate state at the hospital.

At this moment, she sat on the restaurant sofa in a custom–made beige professional suit, accompanied by Caleb and Irwin. novelbin *Cheers!” As their wine glasses clinked gently against each other, the three of them had smiles on their faces.

Caleb looked at Irwin and teased, “I didn’t expect you to get such a treasure.” Natalle remained smiling politely.

All of Caleb’s previous seriousness and dignity completely vanished in front of Irwin. Although still elegant, the playfulness on his face couldn’t be hidden.

The so–called enchanting figures each had their own charm, and the dynamics between him and Irwin were displayed vividly.

Irwin Glanced at Natalle with a warm smile playing on his l*ps. “She’s indeed a treasure!” +15 BONUS Natalie was speechless.

What a statement!

On the surface and in tone, it seemed like a perfectly normal compliment.

However, Irwin was a serious man. Since he was the one who said it, somehow, something seemed off about it.

Caleb saw through the hidden emotions swirling in Irwin’s eyes.

Men… were most adept at understanding the thoughts between men.

“Here, let me help.” Seeing Natalie struggling to cut the steak, Irwin, in a gentlemanly manner, offered the plate to her.

In every move, he exuded a sense of nobility.

Natalie was a superficial woman.

During her school days, many people pursued her. However, it was Cedric’s good looks, height, hands, legs, and voice–everything about him was perfect in her eyes.

And that feeling… persisted for ten years!

Looking at Irwin’s appealing appearance, she couldn’t help but wonder what woman he might trouble in the future. Also, would the woman’s feelings would last a lifetime?

“What are you thinking about?” In her musings, the man had already cut the steak into small pieces and placed it in front of her.

Natalie snapped back to reality. “Sorry.” “Don’t worry about it!” Irwin reassured.

Caleb watched their interaction silently. This meal was originally a celebration of his successful acquisition of the land next to Dragon Park However, now it felt like he was a third wheel.

Just as Natalie was about to say something, her phone, which was on the table, vibrated.

Glancing at the screen, she recognized it as Cedric’s number. Since their divorce, she had changed the name from Darling to nothing at all.

+15 BONUS She picked up the device and tossed it into her bag, not bothering to answer it.

In the next half hour, they mostly discussed the project near Dragon Park, as it was Natalie’s studio handling the work.

So, her workload was substantial!

Caleb suggested sending someone to assist her studio, and Natalie readily agreed. At this stage, her studio was just starting, and extra help was appreciated.

“That also works. After all, if I hire outside designers, I would be uncertain about their skills for a while. I’m grateful that you’re sending someone to help us,” Natalie said, raising her glass to Caleb.

Initially, this was a problem that had given Karina a headache.

Now, Natalie had effortlessly solved it.

While Natalie was socializing, Cedric was on the verge of exploding.

He repeatedly called her, but she didn’t answer. Eventually, he had Yuvan check where Natalie was.

However, when Yuvan reported back to Cedric, the rage surged to the top of his head.

She had angered someone to the point they had to be admitted to the hospital, and now she was dining with two men?!

Was there a limit to the things she wouldn’t do?!

When Natalie, Irwin, and Caleb walked out of the restaurant, they saw Cedric descending from the Phantom with an icy demeanor.

His cold eyes were fixed on them when he saw them.

Sensing the tension, Caleb quickly excused himself, “Um… I’ll leave now!” Clearly, it was not appropriate for him to be involved in this situation. Natalie was already a hot topic outside the circle, and if they started a scene now, who knew what kind of spectacle it would turn into?

He and Irwin had seen the reports today about Natalle. The current situation seemed favorable to Natalie, so he decided not to cause more trouble or be an eyesore.

Irwin nodded. “Alright.” Thanks for today, Natalie said politely to Caleb BONUS She acted as if they didn’t see Cedric and extended her hand toward Caleb. Caleb looked at Natalie and then at her fair hand.

It felt like a hot potato, but he still reached out.

However, i instead of shaking hands, he just lightly touched it. Even with that small action, he could feel someone trying to burn a hole in his back.

He quickly withdrew his hand.

“Bye now!” After saying that, Caleb turned and walked away without waiting for Irwin and Natalie’s response. His hurried steps seemed almost like he was fleeing the scene.

Although Caleb was known to be a bit of a playboy, he still had principles he followed! He wouldn’t touch a married woman or a woman in a committed relationship!

As for Natalie, a divorced woman… he also wouldn’t touch her!

After Caleb left, Natalie turned to Irwin and said, “You should head back too. Thanks for today.” “You’re welcome. Can you handle it?” “Of course!” Natalie replied with a smile.

Her features were naturally beautiful, but the conservative environment in the Johnson family had concealed her beauty for a long time.

Now that she was liberated from that marriage, her beauty was fully revealed!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 116-The Relationship Between Isabella and Natalie Irwin glanced in Cedric’s direction and left.

Cedric hadn’t managed to suppress his temper, so he didn’t move to stop Irwin..

Natalie was no longer someone he could control as he pleased.

Who knew what trouble that sly vixen might cause if he had stopped Irwin?

Cedric vividly recalled the scene from earlier when she had created a ruckus at the hospital.

His emotions surged as he watched Irwin depart.

“Are you stalking me?” Natalie looked at the silent man and asked, her tone less than friendly.

After she said that, the chill coming from Cedric seemed to intensify.

Stalking her?!

She really would say anything now, huh?

“Natalie!” +15 BONUS “What?” “Mom’s in the hospital,” Cedric said as he struggled to keep calm.

Natalie paused momentarily, taking a while to realize who Cedric was referring to.

It wasn’t entirely her fault. She hadn’t called Rebecca “mom” since she woke up in her current life. Hence, when Cedric said “mom“, she took a minute to process who he meant.

Cedric’s anger nearly overflowed when he saw her confused expression.

However, instead of showing concern, Natalie calmly asked, “How is that my my concern?” “She’s your “She’s your mother, not mine! Have you forgotten that we’re divorced?” Natalle interrupted Cedric before he could finish his sentence.

Cedric felt a sudden catch in his breath at this moment.

That was right were divorced!

She was right. He… had forgotten Upon hearing that Rebecca had been admitted to the hospital, his initial thought was that Natalie would go there.

After all, in the past, Natalie would be the first to rush to their side whenever there were health issues with the elders in the Johnson family.

When Elizabeth had been hospitalized in the past, Natalie hadn’t even asked for a caregiver to help out. She personally took care of the older woman daily until she was discharged.

Natalie shrugged. “Looks like you truly forgot.” Her tone was calm and easy–going.

“But remember this from now on: The affairs of the Johnson family have nothing to do with me.” Natalie reminded him before turning around and walking towards her car.

Cedric remained rooted to the spot as he watched her get into the car and drive away. He stood in the chilling wind and was unable to snap out of his daze for a long time.

There was no connection between them anymore!

She had made it clear so decisively!

His phone vibrated, and it was a call from Christina. Cedric didn’t know how he answered, but he silently listened to Christina crying on the other end of the line and was unable to make out a single word.

There was nothing between him and Natalie anymore. And instead of the pain he expected to see in her eyes, there was only indifference and relief.

She actually…!

After leaving the restaurant, Natalie drove straight back to Elegance Bay.

She was genuinely exhausted these days. She had been working overtime for several days just for the collaboration with Premier Garden Corporation.

As she got out of the car, Natalie was greeted by the respectful butler.

Miss, you’ve finally returned “Mr. Jarvis is here.” When Natalie heard this, she was stunned!

Her uncle was here?!

“When did he arrive?” She asked as she walked in.

The butler followed closely and replied, “He arrived two hours ago. He didn’t want to inform you as he was worried it might affect your work.” “Alright.” Natalie nodded.

One of the things Stephen appreciated about her was her work attitude. Although he was her uncle, she couldn’t help but pass a comment: He was a capitalist through and through and couldn’t stand being idle!

Upon entering the room, she noticed the servants bustling around. All of them had a careful and nervous expression on their faces.

Meanwhile, Stephen sat on the sofa, sipping coffee.

“Replace all the curtains tomorrow. And the exterior walls too. Contact the muralist to come, and that thing… What’s it called…” “Uncle,” Natalie’s voice rang out.

When the servants noticed Natalie’s return, their faces were filled with relief and joy.

Natalie was someone who was excessively easy to serve. Since she arrived, they had never been this nervous before.

Stephen turned around, smiling at Natalie.

Although he was almost an elderly man, his age did nothing to conceal his elegant and gentlemanly demeanor. At a glance, one could see the clear and refined features of his youth.

Natalie approached Stephen and playfully said, “What are you doing? My place is a mess now that you’re here. Why are you torturing others at this time?” Your place is a mess now that I’m here? It’s more accurate to say that you mess things up even before 1 come herer The color scheme isn’t right!

+15 BONUS “Okay, that’s enough. You’re the chairman of the mighty Regal Horizons Intemational. Why do you care about these things?” “I’m afraid you’re not comfortable here.” “I’m very comfortable; I’m not picky!” Natalie acknowledged that her taste, cultivated over the years with Cedric, had always been good.

However, in front of Stephen, she could only admit that she was not picky, as Stephen scrutinized every detail.

Stephen was an extremely picky person in life, and his skills in business were even more clear–cut. It was impossible to discern his approach when handling his employees.

Avoiding the issue of house layout, Natalie asked. “Why did you come over?” “Regal Horizons has a branch here. There have been some issues lately, so I came to take a look.” “A branch?” “Yes.” Natalie didn’t know that Regal Horizons had a branch in Verde City!

In the next moment, Stephen explained. “Because I didn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble, I didn’t use Regal Horizons‘ name. Verde City probably doesn’t know that it’s our branch.” “I see.” Natalie nodded.

Even if Regal Horizons International had a branch elsewhere, it usually used the same name. It wasn’t surprising that she didn’t know about it since Verde City might not have allowed it.

Natalie didn’t inquire about the specific company. Instead, she said, “So, you’ll leave in a few days?” “The day after tomorrow.” “So soon?” Your aunt is not used to being alone,” Stephen explained.

Despite everything, it boiled down to not feeling at ease with his wife alone at home.

Given their advanced age, their relationship was genuinely good. Even when Stephen was on a business tro, he would hurry back as soon as possible.

away, he always retumed home promptly after work and never attended social Natalie envied the relationship between her uncle and aunt.

“What are you thinking about?” Stephen asked when he sensed her emotions.

Despite her excellent emotional control, the air around a person would change when they had something on their mind Natalie replied. “Your relationship with Aunt is really good. It seems to have remained unchanged for so many years.” “There were some things that happened back then, but… Stephen trailed off, not finishing his sentence.

Back then, he had almost lost her.

Natalie didn’t dwell on it.

Life was inherently unbalanced, and occasional deviations were normal. However, when the deviation became significant, things changed.

That was precisely the case for her and Cedric When there had been no issues, everything was fine. But when issues arose, they were major and difficult ones.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 117-“Don’t dwell on things between you and that kid. If a man truly loved you, he would wholeheartedly trust you, no matter what happens.” Regardless of what occurs, the man would believe the woman he truly loved.

Natalie felt a lump in her throat!

“I don’t care about him anymore,” she said in an unusually calm tone.

Stephen looked at her and pondered momentarily. Then, he said, “I have some new information about Isabella.” “What is it?” “I must first warn you that it “I must first warn you that it’s not good news.” Initially, Stephen had no intention of informing Natalie on this matter when he first found out. However, Karina mentioned that Natalie was hiring a private investigator before Stephen arrived today.

It was evident that Natalie was anxious and concerned about this matter. Even if Stephen didn’t tell her, she would eventually find out on her own.

Natalie swallowed hard. “What do you mean by that?” Stephen sat down, took a sip of the water, and said, “I think the one she actually hates is your mother.” Natalie was speechless.

Her mother?

“Uncle…?” Her chest tightened, and she became tense.

Her mother?!

Stephen looked at her with a hint of reluctance in his eyes, From his expression, Natalie could tell that this was definitely something bad.

“Regarding this matter, I think….” I need to know!” Natalie interrupted Stephen before he could finish his sentence.

Natalie could probably guess what Stephen intended to say. He likely wanted to assure her that she didn’t ‘But she….I Isabella had done so many things to hurt her! Even in her past life, Isabella had ultimately taken her eyes!

Natalie even suspected that Isabella had something to do with Cedric burning her alive.

With such deep–seated hatred between them, how could she not want to know the root of it?

“Nat…” “Tell me. I can handle it!” At this moment, Natalie probably realized that Isabella’s identity might not be as straightforward as she had thought.

Stephen was somewhat worried that Natalie wouldn’t be able to bear it.

However, Natalie had already experienced death once.

What else could she not bear at this point?

Stephen’s expression became solemn. Finally, he said, “She… is your half–sister!” Natalie was speechless!

Meanwhile, Rebecca remained unconscious in the hospital. After a thorough examination, the doctor concluded that it was a stress–induced heart attack and there was nothing else wrong with her.

However, the reason for Rebecca’s continued unconsciousness was likely due to extreme stress.

“Ced, do you think Mom will…?” Christina’s eyes were red, clearly indicating she had been crying before this.

Cedric glanced at Rebecca’s pale face.

Christina said, “How could Natalie treat you like this? How could she do this to our family? Does she hate us that much?!” Cedric and Natalie were already divorced.

With that done, Christina didn’t want to have a bad relationship with Natalie anymore.

But when she thought about how Natalie and Cedric had been together at the hospital entrance earlier, Though Christina hadn’t learned much over the years by Rebecca’s side, she had gained insight into the hearts of men.

Cedric seemed to be on Isabella’s side and was trying to help her. However, even when Isabella was faking her blindness, Cedric hadn’t been able to get Natalie to donate her eyes!

So, Christina suspected that Cedric’s heart was still with Natalie.

Was he finding various excuses to be involved with her again?

Yes, that must be it!

The more she thought about it, the more Christina’s heart tightened.

“You’ve treated her so well all these years! How could she?!” Christina choked out.

“Enough!” Cedric angrily rebuked her.

Christina was taken aback.

She looked at Cedric in disbelief.

“Ced, you…? Did you just… yell at me?” He had never yelled at her before.

Over the years, he always sided with Christina whenever something happened between her and Natalie.

But now… he was yelling at her?!

“Go home!” It was clear that Cedric had lost patience with the visibly aggrieved Christina.

In the past, there were many things he didn’t know. Now that he knew, he had also lost the affection for Christina.

Under Rebecca’s influence, he used to care for this sister genuinely. He didn’t realize that Christina, who had grown up with him since childhood, wasn’t treating his wife well.

Looking at the impatience in Cedric’s eyes, Christina felt panic rising in her heart. Despite this, she maintained a face of innocence and sorrow.

want to stay with Mom.” However, Cedric didn’t fall for it this time. Despite Christina’s efforts to suppress the panic in her eyes, she was genuinely scared.

When she first arrived at the Johnson family, she was constantly worried about being kicked out and feared they would treat her poorly.

Fortunately, she won everyone’s favor with her abilities. Under their care and affection, she gradually forgot that she wasn’t originally part of the Johnson family.

Cedric’s current attitude made her somewhat sensitive about it again.

“I’ll stay here; you go check on Bella, Cedric said when Christina didn’t leave.

Christina nodded. But inside, there was a tumultuous sea of emotions.

Check on Isabella?

He called that woman “Nat“, and called Isabella “Bella“… But what about her? He hadn’t called her ‘Tina” in such a long time…!

Especially in the recent period, with him being involved with both Isabella and Natalie… Christina felt even more like an outsider!

What made her even more uneasy was the recent suitors Rebecca had introduced to her. Rebecca claimed to treat her like her real daughter. But based on just the appearances of those suitors, Rebecca seemed more inclined toward the interests of the Johnson family!

Cedric entered Isabella’s room, where Isabella lay on the bed. A nurse had removed the white cloth covering her eyes for the night.

The wound still looked so gruesome.

His eyes were dimmed.

Just then, Cedric’s phone vibrated. Glancing at Isabella, he walked outside and answered, “Hello.” It’s me!” Isaac’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

What is it?” Well, there’s something I’m not sure if I should say….

Isaac was currently serving as Isabella’s primary doctor and was well–informed about Isabella’s condition.

He hesitantly said, “Are you sure Isabella’s eyes were Injured during her kidnapping?” “Yes,” Cedric affirmed.

The atmosphere turned heavy as soon as Cedric replied. Isaac’s breathing also turned labored after a moment.

Cedric’s frown deepened, and he asked, “What’s going on?” “I’ve inspected her wound, and it… doesn’t seem that way. The injury looks more recent.” Recent?

But this injury…!

Cedric wasn’t one hundred percent sure.

At this moment, Cedric’s heart leaped to his throat. His expression darkened, and he asked, “What do you mean?” What exactly did Isaac mean?!

“Well, I can’t be entirely sure about this, but remember that I do have several years of experience. Just judging by the severity of the injury, the timing doesn’t really add up.”

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 118-“What do you mean that it doesn’t add up?” Cedric’s tone grew even colder and more aloof.

It didn’t add up?

Having been in the business world for so many years, he always wanted definite results.

He disliked answers with uncertainty.

“Hey now, I’m just respecting your wishes. If you want, I can arrange a more definitive examination for you.

“So, what you’re saying is you’re not sure?” “Yes.” “Then this is pointless!” Cedric said and hung up the phone.

He had no interest in these uncertainties.

How Isabella’s eyes were injured….

He hadn’t dared to recall it those days. Every time he thought about it, his heart tightened. Just thinking about the reason for her injury could evoke the image of Isabella’s desperation, which in turn deepened his hatred for Natalie.

After hanging up the phone and turning around, he saw Isabella sitting on the bed. The white cloth that covered the gruesome wound was now back on her face, and she had resumed her r usual cold and charming demeanor, “Why are you up?” Cedric frowned as he entered the room, completely forgetting what Isaac had said on the phone.

Isabella’s tone was gentle as she replied, “I heard you on the phone, so I got up to take a look. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you.” As Isabella said the latter sentence, a hint of grievance tinged her tone.

Cedric frowned. He pulled a chair over and sat beside the bed. “Want some water?” “No need.” Isabella shook her head.

Her calm demeanor revealed no emotions. Though she was usually so quiet, Cedric found himself unusually agitated facing her at this moment.

he reconsidered.

He put the cigarette back untouched.

Isabella seemed to sense Cedric’s off mood.

With a touch of sadness in her tone, she said, “During today’s examination, the doctor said the surgery could be done soon. I thought today would be the day…” She didn’t finish the sentence, but her words carried a faint sense of disappointment and sorrow.

Cedric paused in his actions. Then, he looked at her and took a deep breath.

“Bella…” Yeah?

“I’m sorry.

Now that he had calmed down, the memory of his actions towards Natalie in his rage made him somewhat regretful.

But that damn woman deserved it!

Look at what she had become now! She was practically unrecognizable!

Isabella’s tone remained light but didn’t directly address Cedric’s words. Instead, she said, “I’ve grown accustomed to the darkness now.” The statement was heart–wrenching.

She continued, “Being able to adapt is a good thing. Like just now, I could sense your presence.” She could also sense his troubled emotions.

She felt anxious and even a bit frantic!

She initially thought that due to her brother’s influence, she would surely recover in the shortest time, even if she went blind.

However, even though Cedric had forcefully brought Natalie to the hospital… Natalie had flung accusations at her instead!

Cedric was unaware that Isabella had shut off her phone. Since the afternoon, numerous calls had been even curses.

Those words were so shocking, almost enough to tear her apart!

“Il make sure you regain your sight as soon as possible!” Cedric said in a determined tone.

“When will that happen?” She could no longer pretend to be indifferent about this. She was even anxious to regain her vision, eager to see everything.

Cedric looked at her and said, “Very soon, okay?” Very soon!

But what exactly did that entail?

Isabella swallowed hard.

“Actually, this is not that bad. The darkness is not as difficult as I imagined. I think…” “Isabella!” Cedric interrupted her before she could finish her sentence.

Cedric couldn’t suppress the restlessness in his bones any longer.

He stood up and said, “Rest well.” After saying that, he walked straight out!

However, just as he took one step out of the hospital room, he heard Isabella ask, “Is it daytime or nighttime now?” Cedric’s b*dy shook violently! novelbin He had always been a reserved person. But at this moment, his cold and tough heart couldn’t help but tremble.

What did such darkness mean to a person? It wasn’t a matter of getting used to it or not!

It was the despair of being unable to distinguish between day and night!

Bella, very soon, okay?” His tone softened, carrying a hint of coaxing.

He was initially irritated, but his patience gradually recovered after her words.

Okay, I believe you, Isabella said:

Her gentle and warm words strengthened the man’s heart at this moment.

It had to be said that Isabella’s tactic of making a strategic retreat in order to advance was well– executed:

As soon as Cedric left, he had Yuvan arrange for two b*dyguards at Isabella’s room door to prevent any extremists from harming her.

He also instructed Yuvan to investigate where the leaked reports originated. Even if it was an individual, he was determined to expose them!

“Yes, sir. I’ll get to it right away,” Yuvan said on the phone.

In just a few hours, Cedric had already ensured complete protection for Isabella, showcasing his swift.

actions.

It was a completely different scenario from when Natalie was injured last time.

Inside the hospital room, Isabella recalled Cedric’s emotions a while ago. Even though she managed to twist them around to suit her purpose later, she still felt uneasy.

Just then, her phone buzzed.

Isabella answered, “Hello.” “Ms. Morgan, when will you give me my final payment?” “You’re still demanding money from me?!” Isabella gritted her teeth, losing all the gentleness she had in front of Cedric.

The person on the other end of the phone said, “Why wouldn’t I? You better not be playing me for a fool! | won’t let you off if you are!” The voice on the other end of the line was fierce.

Isabella’s face turned gloomy, and her whole b*dy exuded hostility.

“Come back to the country and pick it up yourself. Do I look like I can make a transfer in my current situation?” “Go back to the country? Don’t think I don’t know what you’ve done to those two. If I go back, Mr. Johnson will definitely take my life!” “But you should also be aware that if you don’t give me the money, Mr. Johnson will likely want your life instead!” The person on the other end of the phone was not fooled. From what had happened to his companions, it was clear what Isabella would do to him if he returned.

Who would fall for this cunning woman’s tricks?

Isabella’s chest heaved with anger. “Which country are you in?” “Ms. Morgan!” “Even if I want to make a transfer, I have to wait until my eyes are better. I can’t see anything now. How can I transfer money to you?” Since the other party didn’t reveal their whereabouts, she changed the topic.

What she said was true!

Currently, she couldn’t see anything. Even when she wanted to call Cedric, she needed the nurse’s assistant to make the call.

“Fine! I’ll wait and see if your eyes will ever recover!” After saying that, the person on the other end hung up the phone Isabella sat on the hospital bed, her face clouded.

She thought everything had been taken care of, but it turned out there was still a fish that sl*pped through the net and fled abroad.

This could be a potential threat!

A Divorce After My Rebirth 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.” “She’s my… younger sister?” “Yes.” “My dad had a mistress?” “Yes,” Natalie was speechless.

Then, that meant…! novelbin “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.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 120-Getting Bolder The next day. Natalie woke up early.

When she came down, Stephen was already at the dining table. Seeing the tired look on her face, he frowned and asked, “Didn’t sleep well?” “Yeah.” Of course, she couldn’t sleep well.

How could she after learning such earth–shattering news all of a sudden?!

Even digesting it would take time.

Stephen placed a glass of milk before her, saying. “This is what your aunt was worried about.” Speaking of Heather, Natalie felt a wave of gratitude. It’s a good thing she had her uncle, her aunt, her cousin… They wouldn’t let her end up like she did in her previous life.

Taking a sip of the milk, she asked Stephen, “How are you getting there later?” At her words, Stephen checked the time on his wristwatch. “My people will be here shortly. I’ll take you with me.” “Me?” “Yeah.” Stephen nodded.

Natalie tightened her grip on her spoon. Verde City wasn’t that big, and Stephen wouldn’t stay here for too long.

She didn’t want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

“No need,” she said, worried about running into Cedric again.

Sometimes, life was just like that. There were no such things as coincidences.

She had encountered Cedric when driving her Bugatti and then again with a Pagani… If she went out with Stephen today and bumped into him again, that would be… Cedric hadn’t quite recovered from their ten–year relationship ending, and Natalie worried he might not handle it well and vent his frustrations on her again.

If she encountered such a situation, it would just be another headache.

Stephen asked, “Haven’t you already divorced him? Why worry?” “That’s not it You know the Johnson family’s style. I just got Rebecca so angry she ended up in the hospital. I don’t even know if she’s awake now!” Stephen stiffened. “What happened?

Stephen had been in Simeria, and he only knew the bits and pieces about Natalie’s entanglement with the Johnson family from Karina. So, he was mostly still In the dark about everything.

Natalie peeled a boiled egg and explained, “You remember introducing me to Mr. Frazier, right?” “Yes. What happened after?” “Irwin took an interest in a project, which the Johnson family was also competing for.” She didn’t need to tell Stephen the rest of the story. Due to Irwin and Natalie’s collaboration, the Johnson family lost a massive project.

“What? So, she’s been unconscious since then?” Stephen was shocked.

That incident had put her in a coma?!

“Of course not. But after that, Mr. Frazier introduced me to Premier Garden. They were interested in bidding for the project right next to Dragon Park,” Natalie explained.

family was “And the Johnson family was involved in this too?” “Yeah,” Natalie confirmed.

It seemed that even the heavens were against them, huh?

Stephen typically looked dignified and serious, but now, there was a hint of amusement on his face.

“Interesting!” he said after a moment’s reflection. “So, if Cedric sees me out with you early in the morning, he’ll come after me?” Even if they were divorced, he might still be a nuisance.

After all, she had seen what he could dol She didn’t want him to bug her again.

Understanding her reluctance, Stephen didn’t insist. When someone was furious, they were capable of anything.

So, avoiding confrontation was wise.

I won’t take you with me, then. But you can’t drive your Pagani today,” Stephen warned.

“Why?” “Mr. Foster’s daughter has taken a liking to it. It won’t arrive in time from Simeria, so I’m giving her this one. If you like the car, I can arrange another one for you.” “No, it’s fine!” Natalie shook her head. She didn’t care what car she drove. The ostentatious displays from her uncle were giving her a headache.

However, something more headache–inducing awaited her!

After Stephen left following lunch, she watched the long convoy depart from Elegance Bay.

But soon after, someone delivered a car to her.

Seeing the dazzling Aston Martin, Natalie felt a chill run down her spine. She quickly called Karina, “Just get me a regular car, please.” This vehicle was even more extravagant than before!

When Natalie was with Cedric, she thought he led a luxurious and high–profile lifestyle. After seeing her uncle’s way of life, she realized that each one was more extravagant than the other.

She found it difficult to cope.

“I don’t think I’ll be able to do anything about it today. I’m currently discussing Mr. Lawson’s project in South City. I’ll settle it tomorrow!” “Why don’t you use it just for today?” Just for today Natalie asserted and hung up the call.

She could already feel a headache coming on.

After she changed her clothes, she checked the time carefully. It was already past the peak commuting hours, and she hoped to avoid running into Cedric However, she didn’t expect that due to Rebecca being unconscious, Cedric also arrived at the office later than usual today.

The office that Karina had arranged for her happened to be in the adjacent building to Cedric’s.

When Cedric saw Natalie emerging from the new car in the underground parking lot, he felt an overwhelming anger that he couldn’t suppress.

Upon seeing Cedric, Natalie cursed inwardly.

How unlucky!

Despite all her efforts to avoid him, fate had them collide.

“Morning,” Natalie greeted, trying to appear composed.

She felt a bit embarrassed being more flashy in front of her ex–husband each time. After all, he had always believed she left the Johnson family to beg for food!

“Changed your car again?” Cedric asked after he returned to his senses and suppressing the emotions on his face.

“No. This is just temporary, Natalie replied.

Temporary?

Did that mean she had many cars waiting for her to switch, and each one better than the last?

“Heh… He treats you well, huh?” Cedric retorted with a hint of sarcasm.

Natalie’s words at the restaurant entrance yesterday had woken him up from his delusions.

There was nothing between them anymore!

They had divorced, and she was no longer his wife.

Why did they divorce?

Because she ruthlessly harmed those around her. If she continued to stay, who knew how many more people she would hurt?

Thinking this way, Cedric’s heart lightened a bit. However, it also felt somewhat stifled.

Natalie nodded. “Yeah. He treats me well and cares for me a lot.” There was a hint of sharpness in the man’s eyes when she said that.

However, there was no eruption as Natalie had anticipated. Since Cedric always wanted to verbally insult her, she might as well provoke him before he could do the same.

However, her words only elicited a cold snort from him before he turned and walked away.

He didn’t make a scene, which surprised Natalie.

When she returned to the office, there was a folder on her desk. Natalie opened it without much thought, thinking it was related to their collaboration, However, upon seeing the contents, she narrowed her eyes. It was sent by a private investigator and contained everything about Isabella.

Natalie fl*pped through it.

As Stephen had said, Isabella was her half–sister on her father’s side.

And she had come to seek revenge!
