Ch. 531..540
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 531-Life is but a JokeSo, even though Robert despised Malcolm on this matter, Bianca would be in the same boat…!
The hard–won opportunity would ultimately be in vain because of this!
Even faced with such a threat from Malcolm, Bianca laughed carefree and wildly.
“It doesn’t matter to me!” Malcolm fell silent.
“Why do you think I’m alive now? To live well? What a joke…!” Indeed.
The idea of living well in Bianca’s world was merely a joke.
She studied her nails, then glanced at the man’s distinctively cold and hard features and continued, “I was negligent not to tell you before this!” “Malcolm, you’ve destroyed so much of my life! As long as you’re around, I can never have peace! But even if I have to die, I will make sure to drag you down with me!” The more she spoke, the colder the glint in the man’s eyes became. The pressure on her shoulder grew stronger.
Bianca felt slightly suffocated from the pain, but she didn’t care at all.
1 She continued, “You can kill me now! But I promise you, by tomorrow, you’ll leave Simeria and never return!” For everyone in the Entes family, now was a crucial moment.
They naturally understood what leaving Simeria would mean for them!
The pressure in the man’s grip increased, and his eyes became even fiercer.
Bianca looked at him without speaking. The taunting smile in her eyes had been present since she was brought to his side.
He really wondered how this defiant woman challenged him with such pride!
Malcolm had forgotten how many methods he had tried to remove this pride from her. But so far, all attempts had failed.
Just 1. go.
as Bianca felt she was about to lose consciousness from the pain, the man abruptly let her Bianca gasped sharply, taking a few deep breaths to chase away the pain in her shoulder. The moment she gained her freedom, the lingering pain in her heart finally disappeared.
Turning around, she met the man’s cold gaze.novelbin “Do you think that by staying by his side, everything will work out? Let’s see if he can protect. you till the end!” Malcolm hissed.
Did she want to go to such extremes?
Did she… not want to live anymore?!
If she wanted to ensure Zane’s success this way, then Malcolm would indeed let her live well.
The hardship Malcolm was going through right now was nothing!
In the future, he would make sure she suffered miserably!
“Do you think that’s important to me?” Bianca sneered at Malcolm.
Malcolm remained silent, and a storm brewed in his eyes once more.
Before he could respond, Bianca continued, “These days have been tough for you, haven’t they?” Indeed.
The outcome was still uncertain.
However, his days had been difficult, and this was what Bianca wanted to witness!
She was a woman who would seek revenge for the smallest slight. Even if she couldn’t truly harm Malcolm, she would still make him suffer.
Since she said she would do it, then she would!
“Bianca!” “Have you hidden Jade away?” Bianca asked.
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 532-A Plan Foiled Malcolm remained silent at Bianca’s question.
“Well, that might be for the best. She should have some peace in her final moments, right?” “You heartless woman!” Malcolm couldn’t contain his anger any longer.
In Malcolm’s mind, this was the image Bianca had always portrayed–a heartless woman!
Once towards Faye, and now towards Jade.
“Yes, I’m heartless. So what?” And what about him? Born into the Entes family, he was always privileged. Even without the headship, he had access to everything.
Naturally, he didn’t understand how precious something earned by oneself could be.
To him, what he ruined might have just been an individual’s achievement. He was oblivious to how much effort Bianca had invested in it.
“So, be careful, alright?” ““Go to hell!” Bianca was silent.
Go to hell?
Swiftly adjusting her clothes, she stepped out of the car and stared at Malcolm.
“Hide Jade well. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee she won’t suffer greatly in her final moments.” eves onc Malcolm remained silent, and a storm raged in his more. novelbin But Bianca swiftly exited the car.
The confined space felt even colder at that moment.
Bianca…!
Fine… Fine!
As Bianca stepped out of the car, she found Conrad staring at her coldly. After adjusting the wrinkles on her attire, she flashed him a dangerous smile and walked toward her vehicle.
The intense gaze from behind seemed as if it wanted to consume her entirely.
Inside the car, Conrad glanced at Malcolm. “Lord Malcolm.” “How is she now?” Malcolm was talking about Jade!
As Bianca had mentioned, Malcolm had to hide Jade away from Simeria because Blanca had become too troublesome.
But even with Jade out of the country, he wasn’t entirely at case.
As expected, Conrad replied, “Dr. Doyle said that if surgery isn’t performed soon, Ms. Jade’s condition could deteriorate dangerously.” She needed surgery as soon as possible, huh?
“Any updates?” Malcolm asked, referring to the kidney transplant.
Initially, the plan was to use Bianca’s kidney, as finding a compatible one was no easy task.
Everything had been set up perfectly.
However, Bianca’s cunning maneuvering led to her alliance with Zane and foiled Malcolm’s original plan.
Consequently, Jade’s condition worsened.
Conrad’s words elevated the already tense atmosphere, “There’s none!” None…!
Melanie’s warning implied the situation was reaching a critical point! Undoubtedly, Malcolm was feeling the pressure.
The Entes family was at a crucial juncture…!
Yet Jade’s deteriorating health seemed to leave no room for delay.
“Speed things up,” Malcolm said in an icy tone.
The underlying danger in his tone was clear to Conrad.
Given Faye’s significance in Malcolm’s heart, it was evident he wouldn’t let anything happen. to Jade.
However, as of now… apart from Bianca, they seem to have no other options.
“Yes, sir!” Conrad nodded. Just as he did, his phone vibrated. He glanced at the caller ID and noted it was from Melanie Doyle, Jade’s attending physician.
Conrad answered. “Dr. Doyle.” “Her condition hasn’t been steady since last night. We barely managed to stabilize her. You need to act quickly on your end.” The seriousness in Melanie’s voice indicated the situation was spiraling out of control.
Melanie was one of the leading doctors in the field, and the gravity in her voice highlighted. how critical Jade’s condition had become.
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 533-A Decade’s Time After hanging up the call with Melanie, Conrad looked at Malcolm with evident apprehension.
At this moment, Malcolm’s eyes were dark and flickering with gloom.
Clearly, Malcolm had heard every word from the call with Melanie.
“Lord Malcolm!” Malcolm’s demeanor was icy and perilous. With a cigarette between his fingers, he drew puff after puff.
Jade’s condition had reached a critical juncture, and apart from Bianca, they had no other leads or updates.
It was obvious that things right now were…!
Meanwhile, Bianca drove straight to Versant Villa, where Zane’s car was parked. She slammed. the car door shut upon arrival.
Upon entering, she found Zane looking like he had just woken up, clearly having spent the night at home. As soon as he noticed Bianca, his expression softened, “You’re back?” “Yeah,” she replied.
“Have you had breakfast?” “Not yet.” As Bianca shook her head, she naturally took a seat beside Zane.
The servants promptly served her, laying out an extensive breakfast spread. Bianca paused for a moment, realizing that even in her absence, they had prepared dishes she favored.
Zane ate in silence.
Despite Zane’s stern demeanor, Bianca didn’t seem to harbor the same level of fear toward him as she did with Malcolm.
In the past, no matter how fierce her confrontations with Malcolm became, she had always been afraid of him deep down. novelbin Indeed, after enduring two years of torment, she had developed an inherent fear of Malcolm. Yet, she never allowed this fear to surface in his presence.
Every time Malcolm saw her, he couldn’t help but grit his teeth as their encounter always led to him on the losing end.
Until now, the depth of Bianca’s resentment toward Malcolm was obvious. And Malcolm likely harbored an equal amount of disdain toward her.
“How is she?” Zane asked nonchalantly.
Bianca froze just as she was about to take a bite of her bread.
She then replied, “Not good.” The news from Wexford undoubtedly had a profound impact on Natalie. Even Bianca would have likely found it hard to bear such troubling information if it had happened to her..
Zane repeated, “Not good?” At this moment, the gaze he directed toward Bianca deepened in intensity.
Taking a sip of her milk, Bianca considered the fragmented details Natalie had shared with her.
Cedric and Irwin approached Natalie because of a woman named Blair. The decade–long relationship with Cedric and Irwin’s timely rescue every time Natalie had been in danger seemed to be linked to Blair.
“Do you know someone named Blair Russell?” Bianca inquired, looking at Zane.
Having grown up in such a complex and intricate family, Zane might be privy to some of the covert happenings among the elite families.
However, upon hearing the name Blair, Zane’s brow furrowed.
Bianca paused, waiting for his response.
Why was he…?
After a moment, Zane finally said, “I’m not entirely sure.” The uncertainty in his response made Bianca scrutinize him even more, searching for of recognition or deceit in his eyes.
“What’s the matter?” Zane questioned, noticing her probing gaze.
Shaking her head, Bianca replied, “Nothing.” “So, you mean Cedric and Irwin approached Natalie because of Blair?” Zane asked.
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 534-A Despicable Existence “Yes, that’s at least what Nat discovered,” Bianca responded.
Zane fell silent.
The implications of such information painted a clear picture. The turmoil in Natalie’s heart. was now easily imaginable.
Blanca’s past confusion and unanswered questions had suddenly become painfully Vident.
Blanca took a deep breath and remarked, “Cedric and Irwin truly went too far.‘ Indeed, that was not all. novelbin Blanca had always been puzzled for the past decade. Cedric seemed so fond of Natalie, yet her demeanor deteriorated drastically whenever she was around him.
Now that the truth had come to light, the reality was torturous to comprehend.
How could Cedric have done that to Natalie?!
With an understanding tone, Zane said, “Ten years is a long time, and it might not be just about one person.” “Isn’t it?” Bianca responded.
“Ten years… It’s too lengthy a period.” If Natalie was merely a substitute, then what was with all the things that had happened?!
But Blanca’s perspective was different.
Cedric had harmed Natalie gravely for Isabella’s sake, and though Irwin treated Natalie well, he never showed intentions of marrying her.
Indeed, if his feelings were he, he would have pursued marriage with Natalie during their years in Simeria, if not in Verde City.
But Irwin never pressed on the inatter. Initially, this respect seemed noble, but everything looked different with the hidden motives unveiled.
Irwin was rational, more so than Cedric. He understood that Natalie wasn’t Blair and, therefore, never entertained the thought of marrying her.
“Yes, ten years is indeed too long! Even as a substitute, one should be seen clearly. This is why Cedric could harm Nat without a second thought,” Bianca said.
Whether it was when Isabella or Kayla was involved, the underlying reason for everything remained the same.
Natalie wasn’t the most cherished individual in their hearts. That was why Cedric hurt her the way he did.
Zane furrowed his brows deeply. The chill in his eyes intensified at the realization.
Indeed, Bianca’s analysis was sharp and painfully accurate.
Because there was a lack of genuine affection and the fact that Natalie was only a substitute to them… that such reckless harm could be inflicted on her!
Meanwhile, Natalie had promptly returned to Lotus Villa after regaining consciousness.
Upon seeing her return, Heather was visibly relieved. Yet beneath Natalie’s seemingly calm. exterior, Heather knew an underlying wild aura was concealed.
Clyde, too, was keenly aware of this unsettling atmosphere around Natalie.
During breakfast, Natalie delicately fed Luna.
With Stephen absent, Heather voiced her frustration, “How could he have the audacity to send someone to fetch the child!” Heather was visibly outraged when discussing Cedric’s actions during Natalie’s absence!
“Wanting to take Luna to Wexford… What else could he possibly be planning besides threatening you with her?” Heather’s clarity on the matter was unmistakable.
She knew Cedric had tried to take Luna away just so he could use the child to threaten Natalie.
With such knowledge, Heather was all the more determined not to let Cedric take Luna away.
Observing Heather’s incessant complaints, Natalie took a deep breath and said, “Enough, Mom, let’s not dwell on it.” Evidently, Natalie preferred not to discuss Cedric at all now.
Who would have thought that in her world, Cedric would be perceived as such a despicable entity- a presence that was utterly loathsome?!
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 535-Tilted Situation Luna was undeniably well–behaved. Heather had undoubtedly invested much effort in her upbringing, and everyone in the household was fond of the child. Her sweet demeanor was particularly charming.
After breakfast, Clyde and Natalie went to the study. Both were obviously tensed.
“What’s your plan moving forward?” Clyde finally voiced the question that lingered between them.
Indeed, what plans did Natalie have?
After witnessing so much, her perceptions and understanding of everything had drastically shifted.
It wasn’t merely a change.
Her entire worldview had been overturned.
Taking a deep breath, Natalie replied firmly, “I have my own arrangements.” “Nat,” Clyde began.
“I want to handle this matter personally,” Natalie cut in with a heavy tone.
Yes.
She wanted to confront things head–on, whether it was concerning Irwin or Cedric.
A shadow of concern crossed Clyde’s eyes.
Natalie was too calm, and her demeanor only heightened the sense of impending danger!
Natalie met Clyde’s serious gaze and said, “Cly.” “Yes?” “Did you know about all of this before?” Cedric had once warned her about Irwin’s true nature.
Following Clyde’s return to the Jarvis family, what had he said to her back then?
Clyde had told her that Cedric… wasn’t a good person.
Given the events that transpired, she realized none of these individuals were genuinely good.
However, the depth of deception and schemes behind their facades surprised her.
Ten years…!
What kind of resilience and cunning did it take for someone to maintain such a facade for a decade?
She dared not contemplate it.
Clyde shook his head and admitted, “I had no idea their feud was over a woman.” He spoke the truth. While they had all been in Wexford around the same time, they had never truly crossed paths.
Even if they had met, suspicions about each other’s identities would not have arisen because they were unfamiliar with each other.
In addition, the conflict between them had always remained hidden, brewing silently beneath the surface.
Clyde had never imagined that the enmity between Cedric and Irwin stemmed from a woman! novelbin By the time Clyde became aware of their existence, Cedric and Irwin were already enemies.
This understanding made Clyde deeply concerned when he learned of Natalie’s involvement with both Irwin and Cedric.
Two arch–enemies vying for the same woman?
The implications were clear that it didn’t bode well for Natalie.
“It seems they really cleaned up their mess back then,” Natalie remarked, taking a deep breath.
No matter how well they’d covered their tracks, the truth always had a way of surfacing.
Ten years…!
To have been deceived for a decade–what emotional turmoil must she be grappling with now?!
Everyone had their pride. Even when Natalie had nothing, she never took advantage of Cedric’s love for her.
Seven years of enduring love!
During that time, she had never accepted anything valuable from Cedric.
Looking back, it seemed bitterly ironic.
“Natalie,” Clyde began, his eyes filled with concern.
He had noticed the fleeting hurt in her eyes at her mention of the past. She was proud, especially when it came to matters of the heart!
Yet, to realize now that her steadfastness and pride had been trampled upon was agonizing.
Clyde didn’t need to ask to know that Natalie was carrying an immense amount of pain.
“Cly.” “Yes?” “Is Frederick significant to you?” he asked.
“No,” Clyde replied curtly.
“In that case, I need to know exactly where Frederick is,” Natalie declared, each word dripping with cold determination.
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 536-A Pivotal Figure Frederick!
He was the pivotal figure now.
No one could fathom the chilling aura in Natalie’s eyes whenever Frederick was mentioned. It was a coldness so palpable it felt as if it could shatter everything into a inillion pieces.
Clyde nodded. “I got it.” Frederick!
During her time in Wexford, Natalie sensed something was off. If Frederick were in Irwin’s grasp, he wouldn’t remain idle against Cedric.
That was the kind of person Irwin was in her mind.
But Irwin had done nothing during her time in Wexford, implying Frederick wasn’t under hist control.
Frederick…! novelbin Natalie wanted to see how things would turn out at this crucial juncture.
Chaos reigned, and Wexford was in utter turmoil.
Even though Natalie was at Lotus Villa, she was far from idle.
The Entes family, especially, was now on high alert upon learning Cedric had half of the critical documents It wasn’t only Malcolm and Zane. Even the other Entes family members, like Alto, were keeping a close watch on Cedric.
Irwin still hadn’t located Frederick. As he searched, he also had to guard against both Cedric and the Entes family.
As for Cedric… No one knew what Natalie had given Abigail to allow her to be so close to Cedric now.
Not only did Cedric have to protect the half of the documents he held, but he also had to fend off the looming threat from the Schneider family.
Rumors were teeming that the heiress of the Schneider family was set to marry Cedric.
In the study of Kritz Manor, Lucas looked at Cedric with concern.
“Many eyes are on Frederick now. Even if we find him…” Lucas didn’t finish his sentence, but Cedric understood.
Natalie was ruthless, not just towards him but also towards Irwin.
“And now, Mr. Yarbrough’s men are also searching for Frederick,” Lucas added.
“Clyde is also looking for Frederick?” In Wexford, if there was anyone least connected to the crucial documents, it was probably Clyde.
So, why was he searching for Frederick?
Without a doubt, it was for Natalie’s sake.
She was the one who wanted to find Frederick. And after all she had done recently, her intentions for Frederick were clear.
She… intended to hand Frederick over to Zane!
While she had previously passed information to Malcolm, it was merely to clear the air and clarify her relationship with him to the people of Simeria.
However, when she relayed the message to Bianca, there was no mistaking that she intended it for Zane.
“You know how meticulous Mr. Yarbrough is when he sets his sights on someone,” Lucas said, his tone growing increasingly solemn as he continued.
It was just like how Casey had managed to trace Ashley. Though the incident had happened years ago and traces of it had been cleared away, Casey had still managed to dig out the truth.
With the display of Casey’s skills, it was obvious how things would go in this matter.
If Clyde’s people were genuinely determined to locate Frederick, then the tides might very well shift in Natalie’s favor.
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 537-Poisoned to the Core At this juncture, Cedric was well aware that once Natalie located Frederick, she would have no intentions of siding with him or Irwin.
Her hatred had reached its peak for both of them.
“Leave!” Cedric ordered, irritation evident in his eyes, clearly reluctant to face the looming issue.
Upon learning about Blair, Natalie’s emotions had spiraled out of control. She was indifferent to whatever transpired between him and Irwin.
She had lost all trust in everything concerning them.
With Lucas gone and the study now empty save for Cedric, he lit one cigarette after another. Smoking half a pack did nothing to ease his growing agitation.
“Natalie…” He murmured her name, feeling a profound sense of hurt.
What was he to do with her?
The void left by her absence grew ever more pronounced in his heart!
However, she had made her stance abundantly clear.
She had mentioned that regardless of what transpired in their past lives, even if Isabella paid the ultimate price, it was what she had deserved.
So, even if Isabella had sacrificed herself for Natalie in the end… in Natalie’s eyes, Isabella was still unforgivable.
Her years of innocence had now transformed into an unyielding stance of non–forgiveness.
The ruthlessness Natalie showed him now was just as intense as the injuries she had endured in his world.
Yes, she was ruthless.
But could he truly blame her?
After all, his feelings towards Natalie once had been more than just animosity!
At least from her perspective, her ruthlessness was justified.
But some truths were not as they appeared to her!
Unfortunately, no matter what Cedric said now, Natalie would never believe it. She had decisively removed him from her world in a swift and clean manner.
In the dimly lit space, Cedric’s eyes were filled with anguish.
In Simeria, the ion wasn’t a better.
With the backing of the Jarvis family, Natalie had returned and maintained relative cal around her.
As for Bianca… Malcolm reappeared at Versant Villa, cigar in hand and his gaze deeply fixed on her.
Bianca remarked, “What, not satisfied yet?” They had just seen each other this morning. Yet, at this moment, Bianca knew precisely why he had come.
Given Jade’s recent condition and Malcolm’s repeated, unexpected appearances, it wasn’t hard to deduce his motivations.
The significance of the Entes family to him, while a reason for his restraint, wasn’t the primary one.
The true reason was, in fact, Jade.
L “State your terms,” he said in an icy tone. novelbin Yet, beneath that coldness, Bianca discerned a sense of urgency in him.
Undoubtedly, Jade held a pivotal place in Malcolm’s heart because of Faye.
At his words, Bianca laughed.
Her laughter was mocking.
“Weren’t you saying something different before?” She remembered the times when he hadn’t given her any freedom of choice, trapping her at every turn.
How had she responded then?
She had said that if Malcolm didn’t kill her, she would take him down the moment she found the chance, and she would rip the very skin off his body!
Seeing him in such evident distress now gave her a sense of relief.
Yes, he was obviously in distress!
Even though Malcolm’hid it deep within, Bianca could keenly sense the impending eruption of emotions.
“Previously, you said you would marry me!” Bianca was smirking, and her words dripped with irony.
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 538-What Exactly Do You Want?
Yes, that was what Malcolm said at that time.
As for what the marriage meant to Bianca, she knew exactly what it entailed.
“Bianca!” There was a dangerous glint in Malcolm’s eyes.
‘It wouldn’t be hard for me to save her!” Bianca said.
“What do you want?
As Bianca spoke, the man’s eyes betrayed a flicker of emotion.
And that flicker?
Bianca could see it clearly Indeed…. Jade was in a critical condition.
Bianca said, “Kneel and beg me.” The air froze!
Everyone present took a sharp breath at Bianca’s words.
When Conrad looked at her, an even more dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.
Everyone thought Bianca had lost her mind.
She must be mad!
Otherwise, why would she make such an absurd request to Malcolm, the Entes family’s sixth lord?!
Did she have any idea of the danger she was in?
And now, the look in Malcolm’s eyes was not just dangerous..
It was almost predatory!
It looked as if he could tear Bianca apart at any moment.
Yet, Blanca seemed entirely unfazed. She met his eyes steadily with audacity and defiance!
She was smiling It was a glittering smile tinged with deep irony!
It was silent for a long while Just when everyone wished they could disappear on the spot, Malcolm finally smiled and said, “Do I really have the guts? Does it matter? I already said what I said. So, can you meet my demand, Lord Malcolm?” Everyone believed that Malcolm would never kneel for anyone.
In Bianca’s opinion, whatever he had done to her in the past was unforgivable. Even if he were to kneel, she would never forgive him!
She was also well aware that this man would never do it!
Even if Jade was important to him because of Faye, this man would never kneel.
Wasn’t Simeria a place where no one could make Malcolm do such a thing?
The two confronted each other fiercely, neither willing to back down.
The tension grew increasingly palpable.
Just when everyone thought that Bianca would definitely die here in this villa today, steady footsteps approached from outside.
And then, Zane appeared.
His appearance cased the tension among the people at the foot of the mountain.
“Why are you here, Malcolm?” Zane’s tone was relatively polite.
Yet, underneath that politeness, everyone detected a chilling undertone.
Clearly, Zane had returned to Versant Villa because he heard Malcolm was here. Perhaps it was even because Zane was aware of Jade’s current condition.
One didn’t need to guess to know what Malcolm intended to do now.
The atmosphere was shattered!
Blanca stood up. But before she could react, Zane pulled her into his arms unexpectedly, instantly establishing an aura of dominance.
Blanca asked, “Why did you come back?” “To retrieve some documents.” There was a hidden anger in the man’s eyes as he looked at her.
Bianca felt puzzled. She hadn’t done anything!
Malcolm also stood up. While his aura had somewhat restrained, it was still bone–chillingly cold.
Z, be careful of the woman in your arms. Some women may seem human, but they are…” He paused, looking at Bianca with eyes glinting with coldness.
Then, he continued, “Have you heard of a viper? Its entire body is poisonous!novelbin
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 539-Absurd Demand After Malcolm left, Bianca felt something was off as she looked at the man holding her.
The gaze Zane directed at her was intense. novelbin “Why are you looking at me like that?” Bianca’s words carried a hint of displeasure.
Zane replied, “Didn’t I tell you not to provoke him?” “What? Who would dare provoke him?” Bianca sounded somewhat irked.
She had never intended to provoke anyone. All she wanted was to work hard and live her life. Even after witnessing Natalie suffer so much by Cedric’s side, she had never considered marriage.
Therefore, she had never intended to provoke anyone.
Yet, she found herself embroiled in this muddy situation.
How could she simply let it go?
The man’s grip on her tightened.
“Don’t see him these days. Jade is in a critical condition right now,” Zane said carefully.
While the matters concerning the Entes family were pressing, Zane was also attentive to everything around Malcolm….
Especially when it concerned Bianca!
Given Jade’s critical condition, Blanca was the top priority.
Zane didn’t need to remind Bianca of how important Jade was to Malcolm.
Under the current circumstances, it wouldn’t be surprising if Malcolm resorted to more forceful methods if it came to that point.
Bianca clearly caught Zane’s implied warning and nodded. “I understand.” Zane was very busy.
Not long after Malcolm left, Zane also departed. However, Zane left someone with Bianca.
“Michael!” Michael Quirk had always been by Zane’s side, and Zane now left him with Bianca.
It showed how on guard Zane was against Malcolm.
Before leaving, Zane instructed Michael to stay by Bianca’s side no matter where she went.
Meanwhile, Natalie seemed to be peacefully spending time with Luna at Lotus Villa. But in reality, she was far from idle.
When Casey called, Natalie learned that Clyde had entrusted Frederick’s matters to Casey.
Over the phone, Casey said, “I suspect… that Frederic is in Mr. Johnson’s hands!” Natalie was silent.
In Cedric’s hands?
Now, that was intriguing.
Undoubtedly, both Irwin and the Entes family had been searching for Frederick.
At this time, Cedric had become entangled with the Schneider family. So, in everyone’s eyes, he might be overwhelmed and simply have no time for anything else.
However, the news from Casey now… “Is it accurate?” Natalie’s tone grew colder.
Frederick was in Cedric’s hands?
If that were the case…!
Casey replied, “Based on our current leads, it seems he is indeed with Mr. Johnson.” “How so?” “Because the last person Frederick met before his disappearance was Mr. Johnson!” If that was the case, then it was likely that Frederick was indeed with Cedric.
Unexpectedly, even amid the Schneider family’s pressing situation, he… still managed to divert his attention elsewhere.
What words could Natalie use to describe him now?
But then again…!
She had never truly understood this man in ten years. What did this small revelation matter now?
Irwin, Cedric, everything–she had never truly seen through them!
So, Cedric’s actions now weren’t surprising in the slightest.
“I got it.” Natalie ended the call, and a cold gleam flashed in her eyes.
When Luna rushed over, Natalie instantly pushed away all her hostility and quickly picked up the child.
A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 540-Resentment Natalie’s tone was filled with indulgence.
“Look at you. You’re all covered in sand. Where were you playing?” “In the sandbox! Mommy, do you want to come?” Luna said to Natalie, showcasing how much of a paradise that place was for the child.
Heather doted on Laina immensely. After Luna returned to Simeria, the backyard of Lotus Villa was gradually transformed. It was now filled entirely with playground equipment for the child.
Essentially, anything available outside could be found here. And the sandbox was Luna’s favorite.
“Mommy has some matters to attend to now. Once I’m free, I’ll come and play with you, okay? “Natalie gently said.
Luna nodded. She wriggled out of Natalie’s arms and then ran off on her tiny legs.
Natalie’s heart softened as she watched Luna’s petite figure. She couldn’t deny that at one point, she had prioritized avoiding Cedric completely for Luna’s sake. Natalie had done it despite the overwhelming hatred she had felt toward Cedric However, now…!
thoroughly Since he had intended to hurt Luna to use her to save Kayla, Natalie’s heart wa shaken. All her pent– up emotions were overturned, and her tolerance for Cedric reached its limit.
She couldn’t bear it any longer!novelbin Just then, her phone vibrated.
Natalie glanced at the incoming call.
It was Cedric’s.
She smirked coldly and picked up. “Hello.” “Must it really be this way?” The voice on the other end of the call was hoarse.
Being forced to deal with the Schneider family already put Cedric in a dire situation. And now, Casey had discovered that Frederick was in Cedric’s bands!
we Natalie sensed the implication in Cedric’s words, and her eyes were devoid of warmth.
She replied coldly, “This is what you brought upon yourself.” Brought upon himself?
Indeed!
In Natalie’s opinion, hadn’t Cedric brought this upon himself?
“Stop it. Wexford isn’t as simple as you think,” he said.
Stop?
Now, he was asking her to stop?!
Once, she was as pliable in his hands as clay. He had manipulated her at will.
Even a dead carcass on the chopping board had a better fate than Natalie.
Without waiting for her response, Cedric continued, “Nat, I never wanted to drag you into Wexford’s mess.” Η “Can we put an end to all of this?” It wasn’t as simple as she thought, nor as straightforward as she perceived.
Cedric knew that everything Natalie was doing now was her way of retaliating against him.
Enough!
It was enough.
If things went be would be her.
on like this, the one who would 19 “No!” Natalie replied with a chilling firmness.
Stop? He made it sound so simple!
Had he ever stopped before?
“Did you ever think of stopping the harm you inflicted on me for Isabella’s sake? Did you ever consider not throwing me into prison?” No, he hadn’t then, had he?
“Did you think of stopping when you were about to use Luna to save Kayla?” The tone in Natalie’s voice was more than just cold.
It was icy.
On the other end of the phone, Cedric tensed up instantly.
She hated him…. yes, she did!
And it was precisely because of this hatred that Natalie had lost all semblance of reason now.
