Ch. 551..560

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 551-Cedric furrowed his brows, his gaze fixed in the direction where Natalie and Heather had just departed.

"Stop looking at them!" Stephen commanded, his tone significantly graver.

There was an unmistakable difference in his attitude.

Before, Natalie was his niece.

Now that he confirmed Natalie was his own daughter, everything was different!

Many things had transpired that Natalie hadn't spoken of since her return from Wexford, but Stephen had learned much from Clyde.

Hence, his stance toward Cedric now was markedly different than before.

Cedric glanced at Stephen and began, "She just…"

"As you've seen, her vision has deteriorated rapidly. The doctors say that without surgery, she won't have much time left with her vision," Stephen cut him off coldly.

At that moment, Cedric felt an overwhelming pang and suffocation in his chest.

"How…?" he managed to murmur.

"Heather mentioned that Irwin took her to Mount Elven," Stephen elaborated.

Mount Elven?

Cedric's heart tightened. When he discovered that Irwin had taken Natalie there, his heart had been gripped with tension.

He had subconsciously believed that Natalie's constitution wasn't suited for such cold climates. However, he hadn't expected the consequences to be this severe, least of all for her eyes…!

"The snow and sunlight had a profound impact on her eyes, leading to her current condition," Stephen said with a sigh, his voice laden with regret.

Cedric felt an intensified pain in his heart upon hearing Stephen's words.

Was it truly Irwin's decision to take her to Mount Elven that caused her rapid vision decline?

A storm of emotions raged within him, plunging him into a cold, frenzied world.

Feeling Cedric's intensity, Stephen sighed again. "Don't come looking for her anymore."

Stephen had given him one chance, but Cedric failed to cherish it.

Cedric had assumed that Natalie would always be there. He assumed she would always wait for him, hence his reckless behavior!

Yes!

That was how the old Cedric behaved.

Natalie had given him countless chances, so he recklessly chose her to abandon first every time something happened!

But things were different now.

Natalie once had nothing, so Cedric always had her forgiveness as long as he wanted it. novelbin So, he took her for granted.

However, Natalie's world was now filled with various family members. It was because of these very relatives that they were showing Cedric, through their actions, that he likely had no more chances left.

Cedric had exhausted all opportunities within Natalie's world.

Now… even if Natalie wanted to give him another chance, what difference would it make?

The people around her would never agree.

Indeed, those surrounding Natalie would never grant him any opportunities.

"It was excruciating circumstances last time. At that time…" Cedric began.

"It doesn't matter!" Stephen interrupted, his tone laced with a hint of hostility.

At that time? Did he dare to bring that up in front of Stephen?!

The look in Stephen's eyes turned dark, and his voice grew colder than before. "That time might have been significant to you."

"…"

"But for us? Even if it meant that child's death, you should have taken her away and kept your distance! Whatever importance it held for you, it meant nothing to us."

"Yet, you intended to use my granddaughter to save someone who meant nothing to us?"

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 552-"Mr. Jarvis…" Cedric looked at Stephen in disbelief, clearly taken aback by the words that had just left Stephen's lips.

Stephen cut him off sharply, "She's just a child. Is that what you're trying to tell me?"

Hadn't Cedric emphasized time and time again in front of Natalie that Kayla was just a child?

"Just because she's a child, does that mean Natalie has to accept it? Did Luna have to be sacrificed because of that?"

Stephen's words hit Cedric like stones, each one piercing his heart like a blade.

These were universal truths everyone understood!

Yet, when faced with reality, people often showed favoritism.

And Cedric's favoritism was clearly directed towards Isabella and her daughter.

Did he feel trapped at that time? Even if he did, his actions were unforgivable to Natalie and Luna!

"This is your last warning, Cedric!" Stephen's voice was icy and dangerous. "Leave this place. Now!"

With those final words, Stephen departed. Cedric was left rooted in place, struggling to process the gravity of the moment.

Stephen rarely spoke so much at once, but the essence of it all was captured in one question…

What right did Cedric have to expect Natalie and Luna to accept those he deemed important?

From start to finish, whether it was Isabella or Kayla, they were pivotal figures only in Cedric's world.

Neither Luna nor Natalie had any obligation to accept or acknowledge them.

But what had happened between him and Natalie?!

How had their relationship deteriorated to this point?

How?!

Heather paced around in Lotus Villa as she held Luna in her arms, attempting to soothe her.

Luna was Cedric's daughter, yet the moment she saw that man, her eyes reflected an unmistakable fear of him.

Stephen approached Heather and said to Luna, "Come to your grandpa, Luna."

"Grandpa!" Luna looked up at Stephen with a pitiable expression, clearly shaken by the recent events.

Ever since Luna returned from the hospital, she had been restless for several days. It was evident that during those three days, Cedric had become a demonic presence in her world.

Now, that demon had resurfaced, terrifying little Luna.

"It's okay now. Grandpa has scared away the bad man. You don't have to be afraid anymore, little moon," Stephen said, taking the child into his arms.

His tone was tender, filled with affection.

Luna nestled comfortably in Stephen's embrace, her little arms wrapped tightly around his neck with surprising strength.

"Grandpa," she murmured. novelbin "It's all right now, no need to be scared," Stephen reassured her, noting the tremble in Luna's body.

A hint of anger and danger flickered in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Natalie sat on the sofa, struggling to collect her thoughts. Clearly, Cedric's sudden appearance had left her stunned!

According to her calculations and precautions, Cedric shouldn't have been able to appear here.

Yet, he had!

This suggested that many things related to Wexford might not be as straightforward as she had perceived.

It was becoming evident that things were more complex than what Stephen had conveyed to her.

And maybe, just like Cedric had said…

Perhaps things weren't as simple as Natalie thought it was.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 553-When Clyde returned, he saw Cedric standing in the courtyard, seemingly hesitant to leave!

Clyde frowned and glanced inside instinctively. His fists clenched as he approached.

The moment the two stood together, an air of tension enveloped them.

Clyde remarked, "I didn't think it would be possible for you to be here at this time!"

What was happening in Wexford?

Since Stephen had completely pulled out of there last time, Natalie hadn't been involved or informed about the situation.

But Clyde knew. He understood the significance of Wexford for Cedric and Irwin right now. Given the circumstances, one would expect Cedric and Irwin to be fully engrossed there.

Yet here Cedric was, seemingly splitting his attention.

Looking at Clyde, Cedric noticed the striking resemblance between him and Natalie. A complex emotion flashed in Cedric's eyes. In the previous life, he had been unaware that Natalie and Clyde were siblings.

A closer look would have revealed their similarities. If he had done that…!

In fact, if Cedric had returned to Wexford and met Clyde in his past life, he would have known that Natalie had a family in this world after all.

"I underestimated you. You managed to disentangle yourself quite effectively,"

Cedric was talking about Clyde's involvement in Wexford. If Clyde hadn't been skilled, the situation in Wexford would undoubtedly have been critical for him.

"In life, as the map of importance expands, sacrifices are inevitable," Clyde replied calmly and mysteriously.

Cedric looked at Clyde, trying to discern the meaning behind his words.

Sacrifice? What was Clyde implying?

Before Cedric could respond, Clyde added, "Yet in your world, it seems there's little you're willing to sacrifice."

"…"

"For example… Kayla."

Kayla? That was right!

Though the root of the issue between him and Natalie was Blair, Kayla was what was currently standing between them.

Cedric pursed his lips and glared at Clyde.

Clyde didn't intend to engage with Cedric any longer. He turned to head inside but threw over his shoulder, "I advise you to return soon. Wexford's situation is far from stable."

Cedric's unexpected appearance here, especially at such a critical juncture, highlighted Natalie's unique importance in his heart.

But what did it matter?

If one couldn't attain what was most crucial, the inevitable outcome was merely pain.

When it came to Cedric, Natalie had endured enough pain.

Thus, to the members of the Jarvis family, Cedric's current demeanor seems utterly pointless! - When Clyde entered the room, Natalie was lying gracefully on a chaise longue, appearing outwardly calm. novelbin No one could discern the turmoil in her heart right now.

Clyde approached her and said, "I didn't expect him to come looking for you at this time."

Natalie responded flatly, "Even if it was unexpected, what of it?"

They were truly siblings!

Her reply mirrored Clyde's earlier sentiment towards Cedric.

Indeed, no matter how unexpected or rare the occurrence was, what did it matter?

Cedric and Natalie's relationship now seemed to be devoid of anything but pain!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 554-Clyde's warm fingertips gently grazed her eyes.

Feeling this warmth, Natalie felt as if she had been scorched. A stifling sensation rose in her chest.

Clyde said, "The doctor mentioned your condition is severe. You need to listen this time, okay?"

"Okay."

Previously, Natalie's family had insisted on an immediate surgery. However, perhaps due to her past life's harrowing experience with darkness, Natalie still harbored deep-seated fears.

Regardless of the advice given, she resisted, not wanting to plunge back into that abyss.

In truth, she was terrified!

The risks associated with the eye surgery were high. Should it fail, she would be plunged into an endless darkness.

In her previous life, she had suffered enough within that void. So this time around, she was adamant about not spending even a second enveloped in it.

Like a devil's lair, the overwhelming darkness left one feeling utterly trapped—a sensation only those who've endured could truly grasp.

"Nat."

"Hmm?"

"Try to relax as much as possible during this period. It'll be beneficial for the surgery."

Clyde's words were firm, as if he would quickly secure the resources for Natalie's operation.

However, just as he was about to stand, Natalie suddenly grasped his hand.

"What's wrong?" Clyde asked as he lowered his head to look at Natalie.

"Let things flow naturally, alright?" Natalie said in a heavy tone.

Clyde paused for a moment, realizing the gravity of Natalie's words. Considering the Jarvis family's background, it wasn't particularly challenging to arrange this surgery for her.

However, he now understood why she hesitated.

Natalie had endured so much.

From Cedric to Isabella and Kayla…!

Yet, despite the myriad pains life had thrown her way, what was truly remarkable was her enduring attitude toward it all.

Clyde's eyes softened. "Don't worry."

The man's tone was gentle, and Natalie released his hand only then. With that, Clyde departed from the room.

Left alone, Natalie lay on the chaise longue. She closed her eyes for a moment and then opened them, attempting to see clearly.

Yet, no matter how hard she tried, everything remained blurred before her.

Back in Mount Elven, she could see the snow and the sunlight so vividly that she thought her eyesight had improved.

However, that was not the case.

The brightness of the snow and sunlight had given her temporary clarity, but her vision deteriorated rapidly once she left that environment.

Under such harsh treatment, her eyesight was diminishing.

No one truly understood the depth of her fear now. In her previous life, she had felt unburdened and indifferent.

But now, she feared not witnessing her parents age or seeing Luna grow up.

These thoughts constantly assailed her sanity, plunging her heart into an abyss! - Cedric wasn't sure how he had returned to the hotel.

Kyle was just about to call Cedric's phone, but he hurriedly approached after seeing Cedric's return.

"Your Excellency, things in Wexford are…!"

"Kyle."

"Yes, Your Excellency?"

Kyle was abruptly interrupted and taken aback by Cedric's appearance.

He looked at Cedric and waited in confusion.

"Do I look like a bad man to you?" Cedric asked.

Kyle was momentarily lost for words.

What was going on?

It wasn't as if they were saints!

Kyle had always seen himself that way as he worked by Cedric's side.

So, Cedric's remark left him bewildered.

Staring at Kyle, who remained silent, Cedric pressed, "Do I?"

"Somewhat," Kyle cautiously responded.

Somewhat?

What did that even mean?

Judging by the flicker in Cedric's eyes, Kyle had a rough idea of where Cedric might have been just moments ago.novelbin

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 555-Despite the situation in Wexford, Cedric still had to come to Simeria.

Apart from Natalie being the reason, it was also naturally because… of Luna!

After what happened the last time, there was no need for others to guess just what kind of presence he was in Luna's heart.

Kyle took a deep breath. When he spoke, he couldn't help the tightness in his voice.

"Did you see Miss Luna?"

Luna…

Thinking of her reaction to him and how she had hid in Natalie's arms…

Luna's eyes had been filled with fear when she saw Cedric, and he felt more than just a suffocation in his chest.

He took several deep breaths, but it did little to quell the stifling sensation in his chest.

He moved to the nearby couch and lit a cigarette.

"Is there any news about that person?" he inquired gravely.

At Cedric's words, Kyle promptly stepped forward, nodding. "Mr. Larkin is currently in Yuloria."

"Yuloria?"

"Yes, we've obtained his address. He's been living in seclusion there for years."

Edward Larkin!

He was a renowned figure and a medical practitioner with vast knowledge and experience. After retiring from Wexford International Hospital at the age of seventy, he vanished without a trace.

During his prime, securing an appointment with him was nearly impossible. However, it was said that any patient he treated would eventually see the light again, regardless of the cause of their blindness.

Cedric was well aware of Edward's existence.

He had once considered taking Isabella to him. However, Edward had already retired by then, and his whereabouts were unknown.

But now, they had found Edward!

Having come from another life with Natalie, Cedric knew better than anyone else what Natalie feared most—darkness.

It was this fear that had kept her from undergoing surgery all these years.

Even if her vision remained blurred, she refused the operation!

The thought of potential surgical failure terrified her, as it would condemn her to eternal darkness.

Having experienced such profound darkness and the accompanying helplessness and agony, how could she willingly subject herself to that again?

Despite having numerous family members by her side, Natalie remained resolute in her fear.

Darkness was terrifying to a person.

And to Natalie, darkness wasn't just an inconvenience. It symbolized an overwhelming vulnerability, especially during perilous times!

"Should we inform Mr. Yarbrough?" Kyle looked at Cedric and asked.

Edward was crucial to Natalie right now. It was essential to get to him as soon as possible, especially since Natalie's vision was rapidly deteriorating.

However, Cedric shook his head decisively. "That won't be necessary."

Kyle paused for a moment, clearly puzzled by Cedric's response. "Then what…?"

Wasn't this a hard-won opportunity? novelbin Shouldn't they let Clyde take Natalie to see this individual immediately, considering Natalie's deteriorating condition?

After all, with Edward's advanced age, time was of the essence!

Cedric glanced at Kyle and said, "I'll take her myself."

At this revelation, Kyle felt his chest tighten.

"But… Your Excellency, things in Wexford are-"

"Go back with Lucas. I'll take her to Yuloria," Cedric interrupted Lucas before the latter could finish speaking.

It was evident that Cedric intended to personally accompany Natalie to find this renowned doctor in Yuloria.

He wanted to witness her recovery with his own eyes.

But what about the situation in Wexford?

The trip to Yuloria would undoubtedly be time-consuming.

Given all the past events concerning Natalie, Kyle had often thought Cedric was too indifferent.

Why would he…?!

After experiencing so many things and knowing all that he knew, how could Cedric still hurt her so much?!

Yet, looking at Cedric now, Kyle realized that perhaps Cedric was merely struggling with a life-altering decision at a critical moment.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 556-At this moment, Kyle finally understood that Cedric wasn't feeling good about the decisions he had made.

Unfortunately, these choices were ultimately beyond anyone's comprehension!

Or, more accurately, Natalie was one of the people who would never understand his decisions!

"If you go to Yuloria at this time, it'll take at least six months," Kyle solemnly reminded Cedric.

Indeed.

Six months!

Under normal circumstances, half a year already felt like an eternity.

Who knew what would happen in Wexford during that time?

Given this situation, Kyle was firmly against it. novelbin However, Cedric seemed determined.

Clyde's words echoed in his mind.

Priorities… and choices!

In life, there were many significant considerations. Sometimes, one must make difficult choices.

He owed Natalie so much… from across both lifetimes!

Everything she had gone through ultimately traced back to him.

"Alright. I understand." Kyle nodded.

At that moment, his eyes were unwavering. All his doubts about Cedric turned into reverence.

Cedric wasn't heartless!

It was just that he had too many important things in his life.

And whenever someone important to him faced challenges, he couldn't just stand by.

That was true then, and it remained so now. - Meanwhile, things were critical in Wexford, especially for the Entes family.

Malcolm had arrived at Versant Villa!

Recently, Malcolm's visits had become more frequent, and the reasons were clear.

"Bianca," the man said, staring at the woman elegantly holding a coffee cup across from him.

His eyes were deep and icy.

However, Bianca looked at him mockingly, seemingly enjoying his evident frustration yet appearing unfazed.

"Is she going to die soon?" Bianca smirked.

Malcolm's already cold demeanor grew colder upon hearing her words.

Bianca raised an eyebrow. She could feel his aura clearly, yet she met his gaze fearlessly.

"You don't know yet, do you?"

"What?" he asked.

"Zane went to Entes Manor," Bianca stated slowly, emphasizing each word.

Entes Manor?

What was happening now?

Everyone who should be guarding it was there. It was evident that things had reached a critical juncture.

Everyone was standing by at Entes Manor…!

However, Malcolm found himself unavoidably distracted by Jade's matters. Previously, the only way to keep Malcolm away from Entes Manor was for Bianca to create trouble with Jade.

Now, even without any interference from Bianca, Malcolm seemed overwhelmed.

"State your terms," the man said coldly, not responding to Bianca's remarks.

In Malcolm's view, when a woman acted this way, it was surely because she had demands. A woman would continue to act out… until her demands were met.

Bianca locked eyes with Malcolm, a dim glint in her gaze.

"Terms? I've presented you with numerous conditions before, haven't I? And you never complied with any of them," she retorted.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 557-When did she present her terms?

When?

At the very beginning, Bianca had repeated the same things.

Faye's fall had nothing to do with her.

Let her go!

She had also said Malcolm had no right to treat her this way!

All these incidents were conditions Bianca set forth for Malcolm.

But what was the outcome?

For two long years, she watched as he slowly dismantled her career in Verde City and tarnished her reputation.

Rumors swirled in Verde City about the true nature of the undefeated lawyer…!

No one knew the turmoil within Bianca when people read those articles filled with lies about her.

"When you destroyed me, weren't you adept at it? I never thought emotions would ensnare a man like you, Lord Malcolm!"

As Bianca continued to speak, her tone grew colder.

Indeed, she had clearly laid out her desires and revealed all the facts to Malcolm.

Yet, he never listened.

Now, he wanted to hear her terms, but Bianca felt there was nothing left in her life worth bargaining for.

Even if all the conditions were met, what difference would it make?

Those were not the things she desired.

"I've always been meticulous," Bianca said, locking eyes with Malcolm.

Malcolm remained silent.

"So, what do you think compensating me would achieve?"

Even if he placed her in an equivalent position now, it wouldn't matter. Those things weren't genuinely hers anymore.

For Bianca, any form of compensation had lost its meaning!

Malcolm began, "You're an arrogant woman! You act so superior, believing-"

"Yes. I'm superior, but my greatness wasn't self-proclaimed!"

Bianca had no influential background. She knew what she wanted and worked hard to achieve it. Along that journey, no one had the right to judge her or tear her down!

She stood up and approached Malcolm. She snatched the cigar from his hand and tilted Malcolm's chin up with her slender fingers.

At this moment, between the two of them…!

A dangerous aura continued to permeate the air.

Bianca said, "How dare a pampered young master like you accuse me of thinking too highly of myself?"

Shouldn't that accusation be directed at people like them?

They always bullied the weak!

If someone like Malcolm didn't have a powerful backing like the Entes family, where would he be today?

With a swift motion, Bianca pushed away Malcolm's face and sneered.

"It would be better if you spent your time finding another way out of this situation quickly. Time isn't on your side. Otherwise…"

Bianca trailed off, locking eyes with the increasingly grim-faced Malcolm before continuing coldly, "You'll witness her suffer, gradually deteriorating until she meets her end!" novelbin To put it bluntly, even if Malcolm had knocked down the door of the villa and demanded it, Bianca would never agree.

Some say that any problem that could be solved with money was a good problem.

Malcolm used to scoff at this notion, but now he understood its true meaning.

Indeed, the world was right.

Problems that money could solve were good problems.

But for a woman like Bianca, who rejected everything Malcolm offered, she was undoubtedly the most challenging woman to handle…!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 558-"Bianca, do you really believe your relationship with him will last?"

"…"

"You don't hold his heart! Sooner or later, you'll be discarded, and when that happens-"

"By then, I'll have witnessed your miserable end, Lord Malcolm. Everything that I wanted to do would have been done. I'll have no regrets!" Bianca interjected sharply.

Malcolm remained silent, his aura growing even colder at that moment.

Bianca was not just a tough nut to crack.

She was like a wolf, fierce and untamed!

Eventually, Malcolm stormed off in frustration, finding Bianca impossible to deal with. He had laid out all his demands, but she remained unmoved no matter what he offered.

This further infuriated him.

Inside the car, Conrad sensed the tension in the air. "Did Ms. Sanders still not agree to it?"

Ms. Sanders?

Indeed, when Bianca wasn't around, Malcolm's people often referred to her as Ms. Sanders. Conrad recalled an incident where someone had addressed Bianca as Lady Bianca in Malcolm's presence and was promptly dealt with.

Clearly, Malcolm never truly accepted the relationship between Bianca and Zane.

Now, as he mentioned her refusal, Malcolm massaged his throbbing temple and murmured, "I truly underestimated that woman!"

And it was true.

Back when Bianca was by Malcolm's side, he had employed countless tactics to sway her. Now, he struggled to recall what methods had finally made her yield, even if just slightly.

Despite her seemingly submissive actions, her stubbornness always shone through her eyes, making Malcolm wish to dismantle her proud spirit bit by bit.

Bianca had completely overturned Malcolm's understanding of women.

Over the years, countless women had thrown themselves at him for various reasons he understood all too well. novelbin Yet, Bianca was the exception. She didn't want anything!

In fact, she wanted nothing to do with him from the start and had tried various means to distance herself.

And now, after everything that had transpired between them, she seized every opportunity to strike back like a ruthless woman. It was as if she was eager to tear him apart slowly!

"From now on, go all out and find one!" Malcolm's voice was laden with intensity.

Upon hearing these words, Conrad understood that Malcolm had given up on getting Bianca to agree.

Indeed, after such an extended period of maneuvering, Bianca's stance had become crystal clear.

She would not relent.

Despite offering all that could be possibly given, she remained unyielding. Even when she made audacious demands, those around Malcolm knew of her relentless nature.

They were well aware that even if Malcolm were to kneel before Bianca that day, she would still not relent.

That woman was bold and dared to play such games with Malcolm.

Bianca didn't care about life and death now.

Having said that, why would threats and conditions sway her?!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 559-Although Malcolm was reluctant to admit it, he had to concede that he had truly met his match in Bianca. - At Lotus Villa, chaos erupted early in the morning. Everyone was in a frenzy, and the entire villa was in an uproar because…

Natalie was missing! She was missing, and. there was only a letter left behind in her absence!

Stephen examined the note. It wasn't in Natalie's handwriting—it was Cedric's.

The letter contained just one line, [I will bring her back safely.] "Safely? Does he even know what that word even means?"

Clearly, Heather also recognized the sender of the letter.

Cedric had been there just yesterday, and now, Natalie was gone. Evading all the security systems at Lotus Villa to successfully abduct someone was no small feat, making Cedric both impressive and infuriating.

Stephen's eyes flashed with determination.

"Steph, we must get her back, no matter what! I don't care what we have to do…!" Heather said, struggling to maintain her composure.

Given recent events, Heather knew that Cedric was nothing short of a disaster for Natalie.

Whenever Natalie was with him, nothing ever went right!

"Of course." Stephen nodded, his eyes reflecting a hint of menace.

Natalie was already in a critical condition and was soon to undergo critical surgery, yet Cedric had taken her away at this time!

This was no time for games…!

Clyde's men were also out looking for them.

Just then, a call came in from Hillside Villa. After answering, Agnes approached with a grave expression. "Madam, sir…!" "What is it?"

"Something's happened at Hillside Villa…" Agnes hesitated for a moment. "Lydia and Xyla are missing."

Heather and Stephen were stunned.

Lydia and Xyla were the people Heather trusted the most. They were always by Natalie's side, looking out for her.

Now, they were also missing?!

Natalie had gone missing last night!

The pieces were falling into place, pointing unmistakably to Cedric's involvement. novelbin "Cedric…!" Stephen hissed.

He wasn't just angry now. He was furious, pushed to the edge by Cedric's audacious actions!

Cedric must have lost his mind!

"Nat! Nat!"

At this moment, Heather was entirely unable to contain her emotions. The mere thought of Cedric taking Natalie away now…!

As Natalie's mother, Heather was acutely aware of the depth of her resistance towards Cedric and how bad Natalie's vision was now.

Especially considering the series of unfortunate incidents around Natalie when she was with Cedric over the years, it seemed as if they were destined for trouble whenever they were together.

That was precisely what concerned her the most!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 560-"Steph, we need to find her as soon as possible!" Heather's voice tightened with urgency.

Yes, they needed to bring Natalie back swiftly. They needed to get her away from Cedric!

The situation in Wexford was already precarious. Given Cedric's unique status there, it was impossible to think that it wouldn't affect Natalie.

When Clyde returned, Heather approached him anxiously. "Cly, is there any news? Did he go to Wexford?"

Wexford!

Upon learning that Cedric had taken Natalie, their immediate suspicion was that he had taken her to Wexford.

Considering Wexford's unstable situation, Cedric taking Natalie there would be extremely dangerous.

Heather was already on the verge of losing her composure when Clyde shook his head.

"No."

The answer only tightened the knot in everyone's hearts.

They weren't in Wexford?

"Kyle, who came to Simeria with him this time, has gone back. We have no idea where Cedric is!" Clyde said.

At this revelation, Heather felt as if all the strength had been drained from her.

If Cedric had taken Natalie to Wexford, they would at least have a direction, a purpose. But now, he had disappeared with her, and they were clueless about Cedric and Natalie's whereabouts!

"What does this man want from Nat? What kind of grudge does he have against her?" Heather's frustration was palpable.

Not just Heather, but Stephen too was on edge. novelbin Clearly, this was far from good news. The less they knew, the greater the risk.

Now, having learned about Blair, they were convinced that Natalie wasn't a priority in Cedric's eyes.

In such a situation, unexpected events were more likely to occur.

Since Natalie wasn't the most important to Cedric, there was even a possibility that he was going to sacrifice her for something…!

Natalie wasn't the only one who thought this way. The people around her now share the same thoughts about her and Cedric.

Therefore, in this situation, everyone was more than worried about Natalie's safety! - While tension was rising in Lotus Villa, Lydia and Xyla were on a plane in the sky. They exchanged glances, both cautiously observing Cedric with alert eyes.

In the cabin, Natalie remained unconscious and lost in deep sleep.

"Don't worry. Your task is to care for her just as you did back at Hillside Villa."

Cedric was referring to Natalie!

Lydia and Xyla exchanged another glance, and Lydia asked, "Mr. Johnson, did you forcibly take Ms. Walker out?"

The emphasis Lydia placed on the word "forcibly" carried a hint of discontent. Their experiences at Hillside Villa had given them insights into Cedric's role in Natalie's life, especially concerning the incident with Luna.

It wasn't a secret in the Jarvis family, so everyone, including the servants, had various opinions about Cedric.

Cedric raised the glass of red wine before him and took a sip, choosing not to respond directly to Lydia's inquiry.

At that moment, Lydia and Xyla noticed a grave concern: their phones were missing.

Xyla was usually gentle and mild-mannered, but even she now harbored some discontent towards Cedric.

She asked, "Did you take our phones?"

"For the time being, it's best you don't have such devices with you," Cedric replied in a calm yet assertive tone.

Initially, Cedric didn't have a concrete plan.

However, Kyle suggested that due to Natalie's current resistance towards him and her fragile physical condition, it would be best to have familiar faces around her.

So, upon his instruction, someone was sent to Hillside Villa to bring Lydia and Xyla along.
