A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 451- The Child’s Name Is Beautiful At this point, no one would believe it if someone told them this wasn’t Natalie’s revenge on Cedric But Natalie…!

No matter the hate, how could she do it in this manner?

Cedric stepped into the car, and the cramped space was filled with a suffocating atmosphere.

Lucas boarded the car and hesitated. He glanced towards Cedric, wanting to say something. But after opening his mouth slightly, he ultimately swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue.

Cedric pulled out his phone and tapped on it, dialing a number.

He was losing it!

The tension in the air was almost tangible.

Soon, Natalie answered the call. “Hello.” “Must it be this way?” Cedric asked in a strained voice.

As soon as he said that, the breathing on the other end grew heavy. Even across the phone, Cedric, could sense Natalie’s unstable breath.

At that moment, both were on edge over the phone.

“You know?” “You already know what happened. Why did you still get involved with Irwin?” Cedric was talking about how Irwin had manipulated her! Irwin was a man who had plotted against him for a decade! This fact revealed the depth of one’s heart.

Yet, she dared to involve herself with such a person?

Ten years…!

Based on that, it was clear that Irwin was so mysterious that no one could see through him.

Who knew what else he was hiding?

And despite knowing that, she dared to entangle herself with such a dangerous man?!

Natalie retorted, “Who I involve myself with is none of your business, Cedric!” “Natalie!” His breathing deepened, and his voice turned stern. His tone also showed a profound disappointment that was obvious to anyone listening.

Natalie continued, “I’ve thrown away everything you sent. As for the assets transferred to Luna’s name, Cly is already working on it and will return them to you soon.

Natalie’s voice was chillingly indifferent as she spoke.

Cedric’s already suffocating heart felt an added pang upon hearing her words “That was for my daughter…” “She’s not your daughter. Forget about her,” Natalie replied coldly.

“Natalie!” “You didn’t hesitate to risk her life back then. You didn’t care if she lived or died. When you did that, you lost the right to call yourself her father.” novelbin “I didn’t-” But before Cedric could finish, the line went dead.

The atmosphere in the confined space grew even heavier Lucas looked at Cedric, lost for words.

The man’s aura grew colder and more chilling by the moment.

Just as Lucas was about to speak, the phone vibrated.

Answering it, he said, “Hello.” Whatever was said on the other end caused Lucas’s expression to change instantly.

Hanging up the phone, Lucas looked at Cedric, his face even graver. Cedric’s l*ps curled into a bitter smile.

“The things were returned, weren’t they?” “Yes, sir.” Lucas nodded.

Lucas had to admit that the people on Natalie’s side acted swiftly. Clearly, they were unwilling to let those assets remain under Luna’s name for even a minute longer.

Natalie… From the very beginning, she had never intended to let him know about Luna’s existence.

While he had spent two years imprisoned, she had endured the hardships outside and given birth to the child Indeed No one knew the pain and hardships Natalie endured just to give birth to Luma She suffered extensive burns all over her b*dy. Yet, because of the child in her womb, she dared not use anesthesia on herself.

All she could do was the routine cleaning and disinfecting, allowing her wounds to heal bit by bit.

And during this process, the pain she had to endure was beyond comprehension!

The child was born from such adversity, and Natalie cherished her so dearly.

And this was the child whom Cedric intended to use to save Isabella’s daughter. Given all this, how could she not despise Cedric to the core?!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 452-Not Too Late for Regrets After a long pause, Cedric finally spoke “The child… Her name is Luna, right?” Yet, his voice carried a profound bitterness when he posed this question The only prolonged time he spent with the child was in that hospital, However, his primary concern had been Kayla’s condition. He was preoccupied with how he could ensure a successful surgery for her.

As for the child’s name, or as Natalie had described, what weaning foods she liked or what formula she drank!

Weaning foods!

Thinking of the term only deepened Cedric’s bitterness, for he had no idea what it was. It was a specialized food for infants, but he had never seen or known about it.

“Yes, sir.” Lucas nodded.

Cedric gazed out the window with distant eyes. “Luna… such a beautiful name.

His daughter was named Luna… the precious daughter given to him by Nat.

However…!

He took a deep breath, but it did nothing to suppress the weight in his heart.

It was painful and suffocating.

“What about Madam?” Lucas cautiously asked.

His heart was in his throat when he asked this question.

Everyone involved was acutely aware of just how formidable Natalie’s character had become. They also knew why she was coming here now, which was the most worrisome aspect.

Cedric’s eyes dimmed.

“If she insists on coming, then… let her come!” His words carried a certain bitterness In truth, everyone knew that ever since Natalie and he were together, the inevitable clash with Wexford was unavoidable.

It was Cedric… He was the one… who had always been reluctant to involve her.

+15 BONUS Yet now, circumstances seemed different.

Everything had changed.

“Will she bring the child?” Cedric asked.

At that moment, the intensity of his emotions surged when he mentioned Luna He yearned to see novelbin the child But considering his present circumstances with Natalie… How could he face them?

Lucas replied, “It’s uncertain, but knowing Madam, she probably won’t.” Indeed, Natalie wouldn’t.

Since Natalie was coming to Wexford, everyone knew what her intentions were.

How could she possibly bring the child along? She loved her child deeply and would never allow her to be entangled in such affairs Cedric closed his eyes to conceal the myriad of pain within them.

“Natalie!” He whispered her name softly, feeling a suffocating weight in his chest.

When had things escalated to this point between them?

Was it because of Isabella?

Yes, from the start, Isabella should never have existed in his world. And it was her very existence.

that had led them to the current predicament.

At this moment, Cedric wished more than anything to go back to a time without Isabella.

Could the many tragedies between him and Natalie have been avoided if that happened?

On a private jet, Natalie and Irwin were on their way to Wexford.

The man exuded an air of sophistication, a glass of red wine swaying gracefully in his hand.

Beneath his polished demeanor, a hint of rebelliousness shimmered.

“It’s not too late for regrets yet,” Irwin said thoughtfully.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 453-His Gentleness Regret?!

When Natalie heard those words, a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. “How rare of you to play the role of the good guy again!” Irwin was silent.

This was unexpectedl Her habit of bringing up old matters was truly exasperating.

Irwin hadn’t done anything regrettable in his life, but when it came to Natalie, he now felt… remorseful.

“But there’s no need for that. I have my reasons for accompanying you to Wexford. I won’t… regret it.” She emphasized the last few words in a firm tone Indeed.

She wouldn’t regret it.

If it was difficult to resolve things peacefully, she would simply avoid it “Nat, you don’t have to see me in such a negative light,” Irwin said, his gaze deep and penetrating.

He was referring to her previous words about how rare it was for him to play the role of a good guy again.

Natalie took a sip from her glass of lemon water.

It was sour.

Without responding to Irwin, she gazed out at the clouds outside, seemingly ignoring his earlier words.

Her silence made Irwin feel somewhat exasperated.

She had just left… and already, a part of her yearned for her daughter. novelbin Recalling those perilous days only intensified Natalie’s disdain for Cedric At Versant Villa, Zane finally returned. The moment he removed his overcoat, Bianca stepped forward, reaching out to take it Zane’s eyes darkened when he saw her outstretched hands. Instead of handing her the coat, he Casually tossed it onto a nearby couch Then, he swiftly pulled Bianca closer by her slender waist His sudden action caught her off guard.

“You “You don’t have to do these things,” he said with a deep voice, his tone sending a chill down.

Bianca’s spine She looked at his unflinching profile. At that moment, her heart seemed to collide with an invisible force, causing her emotions to waver uncontrollably Her heartbeat accelerated at their proximity She recalled the time when Malcolm had trapped her, subjecting her to endless humiliation These were the things she least wanted to do Once upon a time, the was so brilliant in her career that she even had an assistant prepare her coffee. She never had to do menial tasks.

She had shone so brightly, but Malcolm was determined to drag her into the deepest abyss.

In the end he had succeeded.

Habits truly were terrifying No matter how she resisted Malcolm, the things he imposed on her… had become ingressed over time “You went to the hospital again?” Zane asked casually as he led Bianca to sit on a nearby couch, lighting up a cigar with an air of indifference.

Observing his graceful and elegant demeanor, Bianca found herself surprisingly unbothered by the scent of this gar Once, when Malcolm blew smoke rings into her face, she had despised the smell, even feeling But now She simply nodded, “Yeah” “You shouldn’t go there anymore” Lord Zane, our relationship is-” Though we have a business arrangement, I also have to ensure your safety. He’s now…” Zane trailed off, his gaze turning sharper as he looked into Bianca’s eyes.

She understood the implications of his unspoken words.

With your backing, he’d have to consider the entire Entes family even if he wants to harm me, right?

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 454-Seeing Him Again Zane was silent.

Undoubtedly, this was perhaps the most vexing period in Malcolm’s life.

“Oh, there’s something,” Bianca began.

“What is it?” “Nat mentioned that she’s certain the other half of the documents are with Cedric!” Bianca looked directly at Zane as she spoke.

A flicker of emotion crossed Zane’s face. “Is she sure?” “Yes, she’s certain.” Zane’s eyes flickered, and his slender fingers rhythmically tapped on the couch’s armrest.

The tension in the air seemed to thicken Then, a wry smile crept onto his l*ps. “It seems things have escalated to a life–and–death struggle between her and Cedric.” “Yeah.” At this moment, Bianca also pondered what emotions were exactly and why they could lead people to such extremes.

In the beginning, things were so good between Natalie and Cedric. Yet even back then, Bianca had her reservations.

Those two… it seemed like their relationship wouldn’t last till the end!

And it indeed was true.

Sometimes, one’s instincts were right.

Back then, the members of the Johnson family seemed so difficult to get along with.

Natalie’s nature was so gentle, so soft, which caused Bianca to worry a lot…!

But who could have imagined…?

Yes, Natalie had been bullied. The Johnson family had taken full advantage of her!

And she eventually ended up where she was, with her relationship with Cedric concluding in such a manner.

She had also changed.

Now, whenever Bianca looked at Natalie, she felt an icy chill, a coldness devoid of warmth.

And Bianca was the same.

Just as they were about to continue their conversation, Sebastian entered hurriedly. “Lord Zane, Lady Bianca “What is it?” ‘Lord Malcolm is here.” A grave seriousness shadowed Sebastian’s eyes. Over time, most of the residents of Versant Villa became aware of the tangled relationship between Malcolm and Bianca.

Every encounter between them was nothing short of explosive.

Zane glanced at Bianca, his eyes deep and unreadable. “What did you do to him this time?” Bianca replied. “Nothing.” novelbin After all, anything she did now would surely displease Malcolm, right?

“Go on upstairs,” Zane finally said, choosing not to press further Bianca nodded. She wasn’t eager to face that man either. However, just as she began to rise, Sebastian’s voice grew even more solemn.

“Lord Malcolm mentioned he’s here specifically for Lady Bianca.

Zane and Bianca fell silent, both showing a shift in their expressions Given that Zane’s car was parked outside, it was unlikely that Malcolm missed it.

Yet, despite seeing it, he still boldly sought out Bianca?!

“Should I meet him?” Bianca asked as she looked at Zane.

However, she caught a cold glint flashing in Zane’s eyes in that fleeting glance. Even with her fearless nature, a chill ran down her spine at that moment “Go upstairs!” Zane commanded.

Bianca was silent.

Caught in the icy demeanor of the man, Bianca felt a strange mix of emotions. She was unsure how to interpret his silent, protective stance toward her.

It felt suffocating, as if her heart was constricting Eventually, she nodded and ascended the stairs.

a Malcolm was ushered in and saw Zane, the danger in his eyes receded slightly, replaced by mocking demeanor.

Zine was all too familiar with this side of him.

What, not in the main mansion today?” Malcolm remarked as he sat down on the couch opposite Zane and crossed his legs in a carefree manner.

Zane lit a cigarette, tossing the pack toward Malcolm with indifference.

“You should visit there more often.”

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 455-I Don’t Care About Your Grudge With Her As soon as Zane finished speaking, Malcolm smirked.

The sarcasm in his tone grew more pronounced as he remarked, “I wonder, is it because you’re too busy with your wife that you have no time for other things?” Such words…!

Those unaware of the real situation might easily misinterpret the underlying meaning.

Yet, Zane looked at Malcolm and chuckled The tension in the air thickened, and everyone present felt their hearts tighten. What kind of battlefield had this meeting turned into?

Without missing a beat, Zane responded, “I don’t care about your grudge with her.” The onlookers gasped silently in disbelief.

Grudge?

Malcolm replied, “Are you so sure that what exists between her and me is merely a grudge?” “Whether it is or isn’t doesn’t concern me much.” “It doesn’t?” “Of course not. No matter what you do, you must always remember the status and position she holds right now… She’s my wife!” Zane’s voice hardened, causing everyone present to swallow harshly.

Grudge… doesn’t concern him much… status and position…!

The terms thrown around during their conversation only increased the suffocating feeling in the room!

Malcolm and Zane held each other’s gaze.

Both of them were smiling, but it was sharp and sent chills down the spine of everyone present!

Meanwhile, Bianca faced a chaotic situation reminiscent of a battlefield in another corner.

No matter where Malcolm relocated Jade, Bianca managed to locate her with Zane’s backing.

This incessant concern Malcolm showed for the Snow sisters became Bianca’s weapon against him.

As Zane had mentioned, there was a grudge between them!

The grudge had started with Faye, and so it would undoubtedly continue with Jade.

Malcolm might have initiated this game, but ending it was beyond his control.

The chilling demeanor Bianca displayed made Malcolm realize that some women were not to be trifled with.

No matter one’s status or position, if they harbored enmity against her, it would be in their best interest to finish the job decisively!

Otherwise, given the chance, she would tear them apart without hesitation!

At Wexford, Natalie and Irwin emerged from the VIP airport channel only to find Cedric standing in the expansive waiting area, radiating an aura of nobility and coldness.

Kyle and Lucas stood nearby, accompanied by a few more b*dyguards. Their imposing presence only heightened the chilling atmosphere.

Natalie held onto Irwin’s wrist tightly.

A coldness emanated from both as Irwin and Cedric met each other’s eyes.

Irwin’s soft chuckle broke the silence, “Everything will begin soon!” Natalie glanced at Irwin, a smirk playing on her l*ps. The smirk carried a hint of mockery towards him.

However, from Cedric’s perspective, Natalie’s gaze towards Irwin was tender.

Yet underneath, there was a brewing storm of anger.

Irwin turned to Natalie and asked, “What?” Natalie responded, “You seem pleased.” “Of course. This is precisely what I wanted to see,” Irwin admitted.

Natalie paused.

Indeed!

This was what Irwin had wanted to see in the past Well then, congratulations. You’ve seen what you wanted.” novelbin Irwin was silent.

He looked deep into her eyes, sensing a fleeting emotion he couldn’t quite grasp. For a moment, he felt an emptiness, but it quickly subsided.

“Nat, you’re mistaken. What pleases me now is because you’re using me.

Indeed, he relished being manipulated by her!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 456- Irwin, You Shouldn’t Have Involved Her When Natalie had confronted him previously, no one truly understood the turmoil raging within Irwin.

He was outwardly calm, yet in reality!

The instant Natalie turned away, it felt as though a crucial part of his world collapsed. Now, if reconnecting with her meant being used, he would willingly accept such manipulation.

With a stern face, Cedric approached the two. His gaze was chilling as it fixed upon Natalie. The icy glint in his eyes mirrored the coldness of a glacial peak, sending shivers down one’s spine.

“Nat, come with me,” he demanded, extending his hand with a forceful undertone.

Finally, Natalie met his eyes.

The coldness reflected in her gaze was equally visible. She looked at the hand he offered–a hand that once felt warm and promised a journey towards a liberated future.

Back then, it was a hand she once trusted implicitly. He made it possible for her to trust him, even unconsciously.

But now?

When did it start?

Everything had changed!

The atmosphere was chilling! Onlookers felt a collective unease, sensing the gravity of the situation.

Then, Natalie unexpectedly chuckled.

Instead of reaching for Cedric’s hand, she leaned closer to Irwin. “Mr. Johnson, what’s this about? Making a scene in public, especially in front of my fiance? It seems rather inappropriate!” Cedric was silent.

“You’re sending the wrong message,” she added mockingly, each word needling Cedric’s nerves.

“Natalie!” Did she truly grasp the weight of her words?

Irwin’s fiancee? Did she realize the implications? Even if she was Stephen’s daughter, she couldn’t afford all this right now.

The dynamics of Wexford were vastly different from Simeria or even Verde City. Here, the She had no idea what chaos this place held!

In the past, no matter the challenges or complexities Wexford presented Cedric shielded her from its harsh realities.

The prejudices of the Johnson family and other troubles she had experienced before this paled in comparison! He had always protected the innocence within her world!

But now… What was she doing?!

As Cedric’s eyes locked onto Irwin, they gleamed with anger and accusation.

Did Irwin knowingly drag her into this web?

“What will it take for you to stop?” Cedric uttered each word with precision and intent.

At that moment, Natalie detected a trace of… hatred in Cedric’s tone.

But towards whom? Was it directed at her, or perhaps at Irwin?

Natalie’s eyes darted to Cedric, but he was looking intently at Irwin. The tension was palpable as the three looked at each other.

Then, Irwin broke into a smile.

It was a gentle smile, yet it carried an unsettling danger.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Irwin replied dismissively. He firmly grasped Natalie’s hand and intertwined their fingers, a gesture that seemed to sear Cedric’s eyes.

But just as they took a few steps away, Cedric’s voice pierced the silence, “Irwin, you shouldn’t have involved her…“.

The weight of Cedric’s words was profound, so deep that Natalie couldn’t fully grasp its implications.

The moment Cedric finished speaking, Natalie felt Irwin’s grip tighten ever so slightly. She glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. novelbin His seemingly ordinary profile appeared chillingly cold. It was as if Cedric’s words had struck a nerve deep within him

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 457-The moment Cedric finished speaking, Natalie felt Irwin’s grip tighten ever so slightly. She glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. novelbin His seemingly ordinary profile appeared chillingly cold. It was as if Cedric’s words had struck a nerve deep within him Chapter 457 Chapter 457 As Always Just as she was about to get into the car, someone forcefully gripped Natalie’s wrist–it was Cedric!

Suddenly, her vision spun. Before she could react, she was shoved into the car.

Then came Cedric’s chilling voice, “Stop them!” Natalie was speechless and struggled to sit up. She peered through the rear window and immediately saw Irwin and Cedric’s men clashing.

A dangerous atmosphere filled the confined space, and the car sped off like an arrow released.

from its bow!

The scene behind them grew distant and smaller, fading completely after a turn.

Smack!

The crisp sound of a slap echoed as it landed fiercely on Cedric’s face.

The already tense atmosphere grew even colder!

The driver sensed the imminent danger, and his hands on the steering wheel trembled momentarily. However, he quickly regained control, aiming to reach their destination as swiftly as possible.

In the backseat, Natalie stared icily at Cedric, who returned her gaze. However, there was an unmistakable pain deep in his eyes.

Silence persisted between them for what felt like an eternity.

Neither spoke first.

The car finally stopped at a European–style mansion, heavily guarded with multiple layers of security The driver had already fled Cedric stepped out of the car and… extended a warm, inviting hand toward her as he always did. Come on.” Natalie retorted coldly, “Take me back!” She ignored his outstretched hand completely, “Back where? To Simeria? If you mean to Irwin’s side… that’s out of the question!” She shouldn’t have come here in the first place. Since she had, he wouldn’t allow her to be by Irwin’s side A smirk crept onto Natalie’s face, and she mockingly said, “Seems like you’ve forgotten our conversation at the airport.” She locked eyes with Cedric, and the coldness in her gaze was unyielding Casually, she remarked, “I’m now Irwin’s fiancee ” Η +15 BONUS “Natalie!” Cedric’s voice resonated with intensified gravity once morenovelbin Natalie retorted, “Do you even have the right to object to it?” “Must it be this way?” “What’s it to you?” “Didn’t you come to Wexford for me?” For him?!

Yes, she had come for him…!

But that simple phrase carried implications vastly different from what one might understand When exactly did things between them evolve to this point?

Natalie couldn’t quite remember anymore, The mocking smile remained on her l*ps as she looked at Cedric. “You’re right. I came just for you!” Cedric remained silent, his expression unreadable.

Her voice carried a seductive yet icy tone.

And that smile? It was like a sharp blade, slowly but surely piercing Cedric’s heart, causing an unbearable, suffocating pain.

“Nat, Cedric took a deep breath, “Don’t be with Irwin.” “What’s the history between you and Irwin?” Natalie cut straight to the chase, her tone unyielding.

When Natalie had seen that photograph in Stephen’s study, she knew… there was more than met the eye between Cedric and Irwin.

Back then, due to her indifference towards Cedric, Natalie didn’t dwell on it.

However, today at the airport, she witnessed the deep–seated resentment in Cedric’s eyes towards Irwint And she could detect the underlying bitterness Irwin harbored towards Cedric behind his smiles.

Such hatred such resentment!

To say there was no connection between them was impossible! Perhaps the photograph she’d seen in the study held similar truths.

Initially, their relationship seemed harmonious. But somewhere along the line, things irreparably fractured Indeed!

When Natalie probed further, she distinctly noticed the fleeting pain that flashed across Cedric’s eyes.

But it was short–lived.

“There was nothing between us!” Cedric’s voice was icy and thick with barely concealed animosity.

Natalie was silent.

Nothing between them?

Clearly, things weren’t as Cedric portrayed.

Her smirk was more sardonic than ever. “It doesn’t matter. Whatever ties you have, they’re none of my concern.” Exactly!

They were irrelevant.

Once, when it mattered, he concealed everything. She hadn’t even known about his association with Wexford.

In that case, how could she expect to know about his relationship with Irwin?

Now wasn’t the time for her to pry, was it?

Since he was unwilling to tell her, she wouldn’t push any further.

+16 BONUS Come on. Get out of the car, Cedric said again.

Take me back to Irwin.” “Nat, I said get out!” His tone grew stemer, laden with an underlying forcefulness Natalie met his gaze, and a hint of softness flickered in Cedric’s eyes.

“He’s been using you all along. You see that, don’t you?” Of course she did!

They had also dropped all pretenses between them because of that.

But now, all Natalie said was, “If I can move past the ten years with you, wouldn’t it be even easier to move past his manipulations?” Cedric was silent.

His mind was blank, and he felt almost numb.

They rarely talked about those ten years! He seldom dared to bring it up since he’d entered this world Each memory was a sharp pain, so why even bring it up?

Yet now…!

The way she casually mentioned the words, looking so devoid of nostalgia..

It made him… choke up.

He had never contemplated moving on from Natalie From the moment he met her, he had vowed to himself never to let her go.

Not only that, he also vowed… to protect her dearly!

But why… How had things between them…?

“What are you doing?!” The moment Cedric forcefully pulled her out of the car, Natalie’s mind went blank for a split second. novelbin When she met Cedric’s cold, distant eyes, she felt enveloped entirely by his ominous aura.

“Cedric Natalie’s voice grew stern grew start Cedric responded, “Who told you that everything has ended? Things between us… are still ongoing!

+15 BONUS Nothing had ended!

Natalie was speechless. She stared into his bloodshot eyes. Even if her heart was cold and indifferent, she froze momentarily, feeling suffocated.

It seemed as if his rage had entirely consumed his reason, as Cedric appeared to be completely unhinged Nothing had ended?!

There was only this singular thought in his mind: how could things between him and Natalie have ended? He had pursued her across a lifetime! He hadn’t done it to accept that their relationship had now ended!

It continued on!

Indeed.

Was it necessary for their past to end and be overshadowed?

Kritz Manor was Cedric’s residence in Wexford. Due to the man’s forcefulness, Natalie eventually found herself inside the manor..

On the dinner table was a cuisine typical of Wexford, something Natalie wasn’t particularly fond of “Can I have something else?” The flavors here seemed overly sweet, with a sugary touch to every dish. While she had a penchant for sweets, this particular sweetness was not to Natalie’s liking.

Cedric replied, “Just bear with it for now. We weren’t expecting guests.” Natalie was speechless Watching Cedric’s accustomed demeanor, her heart grew even colder.

He… “You didn’t grow up in Verde City?” “I moved away from here when I was twelve.” Natalie was silent.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 459-Even My Eyes…!

When Cedric spoke in such a manner, Natalie was left speechless, unsure of how to respond.

So, that must be why he was accustomed to the local flavors here.

After a few more bites, Natalie found the food too overwhelming. She attempted to have some soup, but it, too, was saturated with sweetness.

She didn’t appreciate such a flavor.

*Should I ask the kitchen to prepare noodles for you Seeing how Natalie was unable to stomach anything, Cedric frowned.

“No need,” Natalie replied curtly.

She could already imagine the noodles would also be sweet. The chef that prepared the food. would be local, after all. Even if they attempted to mimic the tastes of Simeria or Verde City, she was certain it wouldn’t be to her liking.

However, his casual remark about being unprepared made Natalie’s heart grow colder.

He had never been prepared when it came to her, had he?

If it were Kayla or Isabella, undoubtedly… everything would always be ready and to their preference.

Just then, her phone lit up.

Irwin was calling her.

“What are you doing?” Cedric questioned.

“I should go back,” she replied.

“Natalie!” His tone grew dangerously intense.

“I should return to Irwin’s side,” she emphasized.

Each word pricked at Cedric’s nerves, pushing him over the edge! In a fit of rage, he grabbed her phone and smashed it onto the floor Natalie closed her eyes briefly.

“Was that necessary? After the commotion, Natalie’s demeanor had calmed considerably, devoid of the earlier hysteria. novelbin Necessary?

+15 BONUS The pain in Cedne’s eyes deepened upon hearing that word. “From now on, I make the decisions between us.” What was necessary? He wouldn’t listen!

Things had ended?! He wouldn’t acknowledge it Indeed, Cedric refused to accept any of it.

“You?” Natalie shot him a scathing look. “When was it never your decision between us?” “Even when it came to my eyes… Cedric fell silent.

Her eyes?!

יד It was a topic they both avoided, a memory neither wished to confront.

What had transpired back then? Even Cedric found it hard to recall.

“No matter if you believe me or not, I never-” Cedric began.

“Enough!” Natalie interrupted, not letting him finish her sentence.

Never what?

Natalie didn’t care anymore.

However, Cedric’s thoughts were tumultuous.

If Natalie hadn’t signed the surgical form, someone undoubtedly had forged her signature!

And she…?!

He seemed to want to voice a question, but his throat tightened. Words failed him, and he dared not dwell on the memories of that time.

He hesitated to ponder what Natalie might have endured during that dire situation. The very thought of it made him anxious.

Despite his reservations, a question sl*pped out involuntarily, ‘What exactly happened back then?” Ever since Natalie implied she hadn’t signed the form willingly, Cedric had been consumed by curiosity about the events of that fateful day.

However, the ongoing issues with Kayla had preoccupied him, leaving no opportunity to confront Natalie about it.

Although challenging to face and accept, Cedric yearned to know the truth of what transpired!

During the surgery, he had been abroad.

By the time he returned, the operation was over, and the consent form with her signature was presented to him.

No one knew the torment he felt seeing Natalie’s head bound by a tourniquet. It was a haunting image that still pierced Cedric’s heart!

“Don’t you already know what happened?” Even if it happened so long ago and in another lifetime…

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 460-It’s Not Like That!

Every time the topic resurfaced, it felt like tearing open an old wound.

It was raw and painful!

“Nat,” Cedric began.

What should he say? What could he possibly say at this moment? That his words were merely outbursts?

Though he spoke in anger, he never truly intended for Isabella to have Natalie’s eyes.

“You never believed in me, so why ask?” Natalie’s voice was tinged with bitterness.

“I just wanted to-” “Why bother putting on such an act?!” she interrupted.

Stunned, Cedric could only wonder… Was this the image he held in Natalie’s heart now?

“Whether you believe me or not, I never truly intended-” “Regardless of your intentions, everything went to Isabella back then. As for me, I was blind and trapped. I couldn’t even escape the fire.” Did it hurt?

Confronted with these painful memories, Cedric felt as though his heart was being crushed. The pain was overwhelming and despairing.

At that moment, he even wished that the one who perished in the fire was him instead. For the dead, at least, were at peace, while the living continued to suffer.

No one truly knew how Cedric endured his torment.

Was there an explanation? Some things were beyond explanation!

It was such a painful matter… Where could he start to explain?

As Natalie had pointed out, it wasn’t about trust anymore. But Cedric recognized one undeniable fact Back then, the events that transpired weren’t so straightforward!

The events that had happened in another lifetime hadn’t transpired in this life, and the trajectories in their current life had been permanently altered.

Despite that, it still left behind haunting memories.

“Cedric, do you know? When your people wheeled me into that operating room, I wished I had never met you.

What were ten years?

Even if it were anyone else, they also wish they could erase those memories and never recall them again, right?!

The pain was unbearable.

Even now, revisiting those memories was excruciating.
