Ch. 91..100

In his mind, all he could see was Isabella’s pitiful appearance, with the bandages over her eyes constantly.

reminding him of her blindness.

It was Natalie’s doing!

She had cruelly bribed the kidnappers, causing Isabella to lose her eyesight and rendering her legs.

useless.

She was crippled, blind!

Natalie had ruined her life.

But now, who could provide him with a reasonable explanation for the video?

Isabella wasn’t blind, and her legs weren’t useless!

“Very good…!” he uttered coldly.

Just then, the phone rang. It was from the hospital again.

He answered. “Hello.” “Mr. Johnson, Ms. Morgan has been issued a critical condition notice. We need a family member’s signature!” The voice on the other end grew increasingly fainter, clearly sensing the dangerous air emanating from Cedric even across the phone waves.

“Mr. Johnson, Ms. Morgan, she…” Tell her she’s on her own!” Cedric interrupted and hung up the phone.

There was no way he could go to the hospital now.

If he did, he might not be able to contain his anger.

had divorced Natalle, all because of… Thinking about his previous beliefs regarding Natalie, his heart was in turmoil.

could things turn out this way?

He picked up his phone, checked it, and continued to watch the video along. He also looked at the attached images, all of which were records of Isabella’s transfers to the doctor.

“Yuvan!” He spoke again in an overwhelming, chilly tone.

Even the driver’s hands on the wheel were slightly shaky. The current situation in this cramped space was nothing short of a living nightmare!

“Yes, sir!” With just a glance from Cedric, Yuvan straightened up until his spine hurt. He couldn’t help but wonder… How could Isabella dare to do this?

In his mind, he recalled the difficult situation she had faced in the Johnson family, but now… “Check where this video originated from,” he said.

“Yes, sir.” At present, what they were seeing had all been reposted. The original source needed to be uncovered.

The online comments were now ablaze.

They were saying that Isabella was a cunning woman!

To make Cedric divorce Natalie, she had spun such an outrageous lie. Some even claimed that Cedric wanted to divorce his estranged wife and conspired with Isabella to stage this drama, all to get rid of Natalie!

This scandal was causing a significant stir within the Johnson family. Rebecca had just revealed Isabella’s identity to Elizabeth, and now this bombshell had dropped.

The Johnson family was in an uproar.

“Are you sure she’s Ivan’s sister?” Elizabeth asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone.

After everything that had happened, she was still Cedric’s grandmother. Although she still had some lingering fears from Cedric’s past, her gratitude toward the person who saved him was not as strong as Rebecca’s Moreover, with this kind of situation arising now, she became even more suspicious of whether Isabella and lyan were really siblings.

how could there be such a stark difference?

Rebecca replied, “Yes, I’m sure.” Although she said this with confidence, she too felt a bit uneasy. How could something like this happen?

This situation was just as sudden for Rebecca as it was for Cedric. She couldn’t help but think about Isabella’s gentle and considerate demeanor at the hospital.

Now..!

Meanwhile, when Christina saw the video, she was equally shocked. She had never expected something like this to happen.

At that moment, her phone rang, and she saw it was Isabella calling.

Christina answered. But before she could say anything, Isabella said, “You’re quite impressive!” Her tone was filled with a chilling coldness!

Christina replied, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” ‘Christina, I once held you in high regard, but I didn’t expect you to be so impatient to get rid of me,” Isabella replied.

First, it was Dr. Walton, and now this!

Christina realized that Isabella believed she was responsible for it. While it was true that she had considered taking action, she hadn’t expected someone else to be even more eager to destroy Isabella.

“I do want to get rid of you, you ignorant woman, but I haven’t had the chance yet!” Even though Christina knew that everything about Isabella was a facade, she didn’t possess these materials.

So, even if she wanted to undermine Isabella’s position in her brother’s heart, she wouldn’t do it in this way.

“Hall So, you dare to do it but not admit it?” Isabella retorted.

I have always been forthright, Christina replied disdainfully.

She was telling the truth.

While Dedrio held a significant place in her heart, and she cared about her image in his eyes. But since lives, she had made no effort to hide her dislike for be ntered Christina had never pretended to be someone she wash L.

On the other end of the phone, Isabella now had white cloth covering her eyes, and her facial features were tense.

She had lost her previous natural and affable demeanor, clearly due to the pain.

“Hah! You better be prepared!” she warned.

Naturally, Isabella didn’t believe Christina’s words.

That was because Isabella clearly knew what Christina felt for Cedric! Also, Christina was the only one who knew Isabella’s eyes and legs were fine.

At this moment, who else in the world could do something like this besides Christina?!

“Fine!” Christina wasn’t one to be taken lightly either.

The two women confronted each other over the phone. Eventually, Isabella hung up in frustration.

Everything was silent around her.

Isabella’s hand trembled as she held her phone.

It hurt. It really hurt.

The pain was numbing and chilling. It seemed like the pain from the wound was spreading throughout her b*dy But Cedric, she couldn’t….

Isabella couldn’t afford to lose his protection for now!

In Verde City, public opinion had been relentless during this time.

And then, Natalie posted her divorce certificate on her social media!

I was obvious what her intentions were. Some people, eager for gossip, captured the images and shared ham on their chat apps. They combined it with Isabella’s video, and now everything being said was in of Natalie’s divorce But no matter what, that once pitiful woman now made people cringe just hearing her name.

Netizens were afraid to criticize Cedric, but this storm made everyone realize that entering a wealthy family was no easy feat.

Being a wealthy family’s daughter–in–law was truly a challenge!

The Johnson family had been significantly affected by this situation.

Natalie’s phone rang, and it was her uncle calling.

She answered and greeted him, “Hello, Uncle!” “Are you completely against him now?” Stephen asked.

“Yes!” “Nat, you’re doing the right thing!” Although this would anger Cedric, the contentment from this process was beyond measure.

Natalie asked, ‘Thanks, Uncle. I’ll make sure to deal with matters here.” “Alright. Start taking fewer orders from now on. Once everything has been settled, come back to Simeria!” “Do I really have to come back?” But no matter what, that once pitiful woman now made people cringe just hearing her name.

Netizens were afraid to criticize Cedric, but this storm made everyone realize that entering a wealthy family was no easy feat.

Natalie asked, “Thanks, Uncle. I’ll make sure to deal with matters here.” “Alright. Start taking fewer orders from now on. Once everything has been settled, come back to Simeria!” “Do I really have to come back?”

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 92-Her Unexpected Future Although she no longer had any ties to Verde City, she had lived there for many years.

Suddenly being told to go abroad made her feel like a rootless wanderer.

Stephen turned serious as the conversation continued, “I have something else important to entrust to you.

Natalie instinctively asked, “What is it?” Stephen replied, “Winnie has been reluctant to return to Regal Horizons all this while, and I had a talk with her yesterday. Nat, you’ll be taking over the group’s management in the future. While I’m still capable of doing it for the next few years, I’ll guide you.

Manage Regal Horizons International!? Such a massive corporation…!

Stephen had never mentioned it before, so Natalie had no idea.

She tensed after hearing this news out of the blue.

She instinctively said, “I can’t do it!” Handing over such a large conglomerate to her was overwhelming to even think about. The complexities involved were too much for her to handle.

Managing it well was beyond her capabilities!

“I’ll teach you. Why are you so anxious?” Was this even a matter of guidance?!

Regal Horizons International spanned multiple countries with countless interests and holdings.

Natalie had only been at the company for three months, and she hadn’t even scratched the surface.

The scale of the organization was overwhelming just to contemplate. It was no wonder Winona felt exhausted just hearing about it, Now Notalle felt the same way.

“Uncle, I think I should focus on managing Auro Studio for now, I’ll start my learning from this What do you think She had initially considered returning to Simeria, but her priorities were shifting.

Now that she knew Stephen intended to entrust her with managing Regal Horizons International, she became even more reluctant to return..

The prospect was terrifying!

Stephen agreed. ‘Indeed, everything should start with the smallest tasks.” What Natalie needed most now was management experience.

Just as Natalie was about to end the call, Stephen added, “I’ve enrolled you in a business management course at National Construction from eight to ten.” National Construction?

Natalie was aware of this company. They offered a program combining practical and theoretical business management.

Cedric had even attended National Construction for a period before taking over the Johnson family business.

The tuition fees were staggering, indicating the depth of knowledge provided.

“Do I… really have to attend?” Natalie wasn’t particularly fond of going to classes. She had been exhausted during her study years.

Now, she had to go to classes again?!

“I’ve enrolled you for a six–month course,” Stephen said.

Six months? Would she really learn that much in half a year? Natalie had never considered taking these management courses before this moment.

It was only now that Natalie realized Stephen’s decision to entrust Regal Horizons International to her wasn’t a joke.

understand,” Natalie said, taking a deep breath.

Stephen continued, “After six months, get ready to study abroad. Prepare for the exams.

And then she needed to study abroad?!

Without a doubt, it would be related to business management, Natalie felt like she would be spending a significant portion of her future pursuing education “What does Winona think about this?” After giving it some thought, she felt it was necessary to know Winona’s opinion.

Stephen replied, “She said having you around is great!” Natalie muttered, “That brat!” While Winona was living a carefree life, Natalie couldn’t see the end of her own journey.

“Then, my studio…” “Karina is very experienced. If you can’t bear to let go, you can have her stay in Verde City. After all, it’s a company you started from scratch, so it’s perfectly normal to have that attachment.” Alright, since everything had clearly been arranged for her, what else did she even need to ask?

Initially, Stephen had wanted her to return to Simeria as soon as possible. Of course, once she was back.

there, he would provide her with plenty of responsibilities. Managing a corporation was not as simple as him personally guiding her for a while.

There were too many complexities involved.

After ending the call with Stephen, Natalie felt like her world was darkening. She had lost her freedom to control her own life completely!

She called Winona. Winona didn’t pick up for a while, which meant she was likely busy with something.

When she finally answered, she said confidently, “Nat, I’ll be counting on you from now on!” Natalie’s face darkened. “Are you sure this petite figure of mine can handle it?“.

Yes, petite figure.

Standing next to Winona, with her short hair and tall, slender b*dy, they looked more like siblings than cousins.

It was hard to believe they were cousins.

Natalie was just too short!

Winona replied nonchalantly, “No worries. All the essence is concentrated in you. We have to believe in that theoryl Small in stature, but big on energy Natalie felt utterly despondent.

Her future, her travels, her art…!

Cedric had originally intended to go to the hospital. However, he immediately redirected his path to the office upon seeing the viral content, only to find it empty.

Natalie had left.

Natalie…!

Thinking about what Natalie had brought with her earlier, his eyes turned cold. Dialing Natalie’s number, his already gloomy face turned darker when it rang for a long time.

Finally, the call went through.

“Hello!” Natalie’s voice came through, cold as ice.

Cedric couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. “Did you do this?” “Yes.” Cedric was silent.

Natalie’s straightforwardness actually left him momentarily speechless. He had intended to scold her, but now, he couldn’t find the words.

Instead, he just said, “Natalie, you’re really ruthless!” It was such a big deal, yet Natalie hadn’t even discussed it with him!

Instead, she had posted it online and on gossip social media, of all places!

Now, the entire Verde City was talking about this!

Natalie replied, “You said it yourself. We’re already divorced.” With that, there wasn’t much to worry about.

In fact, she had given him a chance!

was Cedric who had chosen to align himself completely with Isabella. When she initially obtained this formation her intention was to retaliate against Isabella and make Cedric see what kind of person she She hadn’t expected it to be this useful and would also push him into the spotlight.

“Yes, we’re divorced, Cedric finally replied after a brief pause. There was an indistinguishable emotion in his tone.

His face was ice–cold, and there was no warmth in his elegant features. The depth of his eyes no longer.

showed any tenderness.

What kind of trials must one endure to become like this?!

“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.” Natalie said.

“Natalie, if you don’t want trouble for yourself, stop this,” Cedric suddenly said just as Natalie was about to hang up.

Natalie sneered. “I thought you would be busy questioning Isabella in the hospital, but I see now that i novelbin was mistaken.” When Isabella’s kidnapping had occurred, Cedric had been busy interrogating and scolding Natalie.

Now that Isabella’s miserable disguise was exposed, he still chose to question Natalie instead and tell her to stop exposing Isabella’s ugly side?!

Since their position in Cedric’s heart was different, it was obvious that the way they were treated was also different.

“You’re a real scumbag! Having said that, Natalie hung up the phone.

Cedric stood behind the office door, an unpredictable expression on his face.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 93-It Doesn’t Matter if We’re Divorced Cedric’s world was in complete disarray.

Reflecting on this period, starting from the time Isabella was kidnapped… That was also the point at which his relationship with Natalie had completely broken down.

It wasn’t like Natalie hadn’t caused trouble before. But it was only after Isabella’s abduction that he had consistently protected Isabella and believed that Natalie was ruthless!

But who could have anticipated..

Images of Isabella’s transfer records to Dr. Walton and videos of her moving effortlessly in the hospital flashed through his mind.

How could she…?!

When Natalie finished work in the evening, she walked towards the parking lot. There, she noticed a man leaning against her car, smoking.

His handsome profile seemed melancholic, like a brooding prince. There were already several cigarette butts on the ground, indicating that he had been waiting there for some time.

The sound of Natalie’s high heels clicking against the ground echoed in the air as she approached her car.

The man turned his attention towards her. Then, he threw his cigarette away and extinguished it underfoot.

Natalie stood her ground, and their eyes met. They silently stared at each other, neither approaching nor retreating from where they stood.

After a while, Natalie broke the silence. “Could you please move away from my car?” Cedric replied, “Let’s talk.” “We’re divorced. What’s left to talk about?” Natalie said calmly.

Compared to the impatience and coldness he had shown when he had uttered this sentence in his office during the day, Natalie now appeared exceptionally composed.

I was both a reminder and a form of distance.

When Cedric saw her like this, his heart tightened At that moment, both Natalie and Cedric’s phones rang simultaneously. They exchanged a brief glance before picking up their respective calls.

Natalie’s call was from Dylan. He said, “Ms. Walker, our CEO would like to have dinner with you.” Cedric received a call from the hospital. The nurse said, “Mr. Johnson, Ms. Morgan has stabilized. She’s Currently in the intensive care unit. Her attending physician would like you to come over.” “Didn’t her attending physician resign?” Cedric’s tone was less than pleasant.

While taking the call, he kept an eye on Natalie. The basement was too quiet, and the sounds around them were amplified, making it easy for him to hear.

Though he couldn’t make out the words spoken on the phone, his full attention was on Natalie’s reaction.

Natalie heard that Irwin wanted to have dinner with her and instinctively glanced in Cedric’s direction.

When she saw the dangerous look on his face, her heart skipped a beat.

She quickly replied, “Sure.” As she said, the entire basement felt chilly, like a cold wind blew through.

Dylan asked, “How about I pick you up now?” Natalie agreed, “That would be great.” Natalie looked at the man standing beside her car. If she were to drive herself, she knew she would have to face another confrontation with him.

As she hung up the phone and turned to leave, Cedric sterly reminded her, “The Frazier family patriarch has six wives, and the most favored one is Mrs. Lambert. Irwin’s mother was the fifth wife and was expelled from the family years ago. Are you sure you’ll have any standing left in such a family?” Natalie paused but didn’t turn around.

She closed her eyes for a moment.

After getting together with Cedric, she had learned of the intricate and fiery nature of relationships among the elite families.

Although Cedric’s grandmother only gave birth to Cedric’s father, Cedric’s grandfather had several brothers.

Johnson family’s legacy had been built by the combined efforts of Cedric’s grandfather and his three As a result, when Cedric’s father took the helm, he faced numerous obstacles and even covert schemes from his uncles.

Growing up in such a complex and challenging environment, Cedric wielded a ruthless approach to secure his family’s legacy. For the sake of their family’s fortune, power struggles, and conflicts were common among the branches of the family.

Even during Elizabeth’s recent seventieth birthday celebration, those relatives had not attended.

In doing so, their actions reveal the complexities of their relationships.

Natalie had already seen much of this. But when Cedric disclosed Irwin’s background, she couldn’t help. but feel apprehensive.

It was a reminder that Irwin, the man who appeared noble and solemn, had also been shaped by this tumultuous world.

Natalie spoke calmly, “Whether I’ll have any standing there is none of your concern.” She knew the call Cedric received earlier was from the hospital, and she had overheard the conversation.

She couldn’t believe how determined Isabella was. It seemed that even if she was under the scrutiny of a magical mirror, Isabella would refuse to reveal her true identity.

was.

But Natalie didn’t care who or what she was.

“Yes, we’ve divorced, and you know very well why that happened, Cedric continued, Natalie was silent.

That was right! It was because of Isabella’s schemes!

Cedric didn’t wait for her to respond but instead asked, “Did you come to my office today to hand over that evidence?” Natalie remained silent, and Cedric pressed further, “You went through all the trouble to uncover that Information. Wasn’t it because you still cherished the ten years of our relationship?” Wasn’t it because she wanted to show Cedric what kind of person Isabella truly was?

Now, he was admitting his mistake and apologizing to her! They could… Natalie understood Cedric’s implication and turned to him. She gave him an ironic look and said, “You think too highly of yourself.” Cedric protested, Nataliel “This should have been your responsibility from the beginning, but I handled it instead. Are you sure I did it because I was willing to give you that chance?” Who did he think he was?

There was a time when he was her whole world.

But now, he was nothing In fact, if Cedric believed her when she said she hadn’t done anything to Isabella… If he had investigated this matter personally and uncovered the truth himself….

Natalie might have given him a chance.

Unfortunately, he had sided with Isabella from the moment Isabella was kidnapped.

we’ve come to this point because of your own actions said firmly.

You have no one to blame but yourself,” Natalie Cedric stood there, stiff and silent.

She seemed to be referring to recent events, but her words implied more than that!

After Natalie left, Cedric remained frozen in place. He ignored the repeated calls from the hospital.

He could only feel a chilling numbness throughout his b*dy.

He had underestimated human nature and what a truly crazy person could do. It was something that had taken him by surprise.

Isabella, who appeared kind and gentle, turned out to be the mastermind behind his divorce from Natalie.

Did he blame Isabella?

Of course, he did!

Even with Ivan in the picture, Cedric now wished to tear Isabella apart.

But, as Natalie had said, their relationship had reached this point due to his own actions.

If he had always stood by her and believed in her, would they be in this situation today?!

In an upscale restaurant, the brilliant white and amethyst crystals in the surroundings created a visually pleasing and luxurious atmosphere. The crystal lighting accentuated Natalie’s fair skin, making her look more stunning and enhancing her innate beauty.

Irwin raised his wine glass. He took a sip and asked, “Are you really divorced from him now?*

Irwin had her phone number and her Instagram as well. So, he had seen her recent post.

Natalie replied, “Yeah!” However, there was a tinge of bitterness in her words.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 94-What’s Your Relationship with Stephen? novelbin It really was over.

Irwin placed his wine glass down and elegantly took a bite of a piece of beef. His demeanor was naturally refined, and his every gesture exuded elegance.

“Have you seen today’s headlines? Natalie asked.

She immediately regretted asking the question.

Irwin was such a busy man. How could he have time to read those things?

But to her surprise, he nodded.

Natalie inquired, “What do you think about it?” “Did you do that?” Though he was asking a question, his tone was assertive.

Natalie nodded.

“It seems like you really hate him, hmm?” He was referring to Cedric.

If she didn’t hate him, she wouldn’t have taken such a significant matter to the public for judgment.

Natalie was an intelligent woman. Before taking this action, she knew very well the impact it would have on Cedric. She also knew the repercussions it would have on the Johnson family.

After all, there was more to the Johnson family than meets the eye!

Natalie’s l*ps curled into a smile. “The emotions and grudges between him and me are beyond anyone’s comprehension.” That was the truth!

Irwin commented, “You’ve made me understand one thing.” “What is it?” Never provoke a woman, no matter how gentle she may seem.” Incurring a woman’s wrath would only lead to big trouble!

Natalie chuckled.

Her laughter left one wondering whether she was laughing at Irwin’s words or herself.

She used to be perceived by the entire Verde City as knowledgeable, polite, and gentle. The recent incidents had certainly shattered everyone’s perception of her.

Now, Irwin’s perspective was that women should not be provoked, even if they appeared gentle and delicate!

As Irwin put it, one should avoid provoking women, even those who seemed very gentle; otherwise, the woman would bring endless trouble.

Cedric had not gone to the hospital, even though they continued to call him incessantly.

Then, he received a call from the Johnson Manor!

“Ced, I believe there are certain matters your second granduncle wishes to discuss with you properly. Or do you think your mother can make the decisions?” “No need for that. I’ll be there!” Cedric said icily upon hearing the voice from the other end of the line.

In the past, he would always evade the issue when it involved the people from the Johnson Manor.

But now, those people were clearly threatening him.

Second granduncle? Hah! He didn’t acknowledge those people as his granduncles or any such relatives!

Cedric hung up the phone and ordered Yuvan to change course to the manor.

The imposing silhouette sped through the brightly lit city, catching the eyes of many and leaving some cars no choice but to avoid it.

When the people of the Johnson family were quiet, they were as silent as the night.

But when they decided to cause a ruckus, they were truly a force to be reckoned with.

Tonight was sure to be a sleepless night!

Cedric massaged his aching forehead.

Yuvan, who was sitting in the front, asked, “Mr. Johnson, are you really not going to the hospital?

“The nurse called me just now and said Ms. Morgan’s condition was very serious. She lost a lot of blood today, and she kept screaming in pain during the treatment.” “Do you believe she’s really in pain?” Isabella was a woman who was completely uninjured, and yet she had the nerve to scream in “pain“?!

Cedric smiled mockingly.

Memories of Isabella’s pitiful appearance and Natalie’s determination to divorce him flashed through his mind.

Natalie had been so determined to leave him.

He, on the other hand, was such a bastard!

It wasn’t that Natalie hadn’t tried to explain, but it was him… who never listened!

Isabella had stood opposite her, painting her as the villain..

Though the truth was suddenly laid bare for everyone to see, all he could think of was one side of the story.

But what happened in private?

Did Isabella ever call her and pressure her?

He closed his eyes, feeling the pain in his heart.

Nat… His wife…!

An indescribable pain coursed through him, and he didn’t know why it was happening. But whenever he thought of his divorce from Natalie, he felt like he was suffocating!

After dinner, Natalie and Irwin returned to Elegance Bay together.

Someone had taken a photo of them leaving the restaurant and posted it on social media.

A wave of gossip circulated in Verde City, but most people didn’t jump to conclusions about Natalie.

They assumed she had some sort of mentor–mentee relationship with the man. After all, Irwin was quite selective, and the whole of Verde City knew it. He looked like a refined gentleman, while Natalie looked ke a little girl walking beside him.

The only one significantly affected by the gossip was Cedric.

“I’ll pick you up tomorrow,” Irwin said as Natalie exited the car.

Little did they know that news of their outing had already spread by the time they returned.

Natalie nodded, “Alright.” She hadn’t driven her car back. If she asked Karina to pick her up tomorrow morning, it would be quite a distance for the latter to drive. It would Natalie turned around to leave.

But Irwin suddenly said, “Wait!” “What is it?” Natalie asked as she turned back.

Her demeanor was completely different when it came to him and Cedric.

A hint of hesitation flickered in the man’s eyes.

Natalie asked, “Is something wrong?” Irwin was not a man who would hesitate.

The depths of his eyes seemed to hold something Natalie couldn’t quite fathom. She was puzzled by the look.

“Mr. Frazier?” “What’s your relationship with Mr. Jarvis? Irwin eventually asked after some hesitation.

Since they had started working together, Natalie had thought he might ask this question, but he never did.

He didn’t seem like a nosy person.

Now, however, he had asked.

Natalie also hesitated briefly before replying. “He’s my uncle.” Now that she and Cedric were divorced, there was no need to hide it anymore. The misunderstanding between her and Stephen shouldn’t have happened in the first place.

But back then, she had wanted to use it to accelerate her divorce from Cedric. Ultimately, the misunderstanding had played a role in the swift divorce.

Irwin looked at Natalie in shock “Cedric doesn’t know?” The more accurate question he should have asked was if the Johnson family didn’t know.

What kind of people were the Johnson family?

Irwin had never interacted with them, but he knew enough about these high society circles to realize that if Rebecca and Elizabeth knew that Natalie had such an uncle, they might not have allowed them to divorce.

Over the years, they looked down on Natalie mainly because she had no connections or glorious background Natalie nodded. “That’s right.” She thought it was quite funny that Cedric had acted like a fool because of her uncle.

After all, they had lived together for so many years, but she had never known that he could be so foolish, Irwin’s breath seemed to catch after hearing her words.

This woman really knew how to keep secrets.

Natalie had a serious expression on her face, and she asked, “Is there anything else?” Irwin shook his head. “No.” “So… Can I head in now?” “Yeah.” Irwin nodded and didn’t ask any further questions.

He couldn’t help but think that Natalie was quite clever!

Cedric had also been clever during their school days. However, he never discovered his petite wife had such an influential uncle, even until their divorce!

Meanwhile, the woman in the hospital was still playing with fire!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 95-Internal Turmoil in the Johnson Family When Cedric returned to the Johnson Manor, his eldest granduncle, Andrew Johnson, and second granduncle, Benjamin Johnson, were already there.

There were also two of his other relatives there, Hector Johnson and Samuel Johnson. They were from Andrew’s side of the family.

His third granduncle, Colin Johnson, and his family were absent as they were still abroad.

Had they been in Verde City, they would likely have attended the gathering as well.

It’s unclear what was discussed before Cedric’s return, but the atmosphere was tense. Elizabeth and Rebecca wore somber expressions, and even Christina looked distressed.

“So, you finally decided to grace us with your presence,” Benjamin sneered, his gaze full of disdain as he regarded his grandnephew.

Cedric gave a cold, sweeping look and showed no sign of deference!

“Why such a grand reception?” It wasn’t the first time they had such a gathering in the Johnson family.

The members of the Johnson family were notorious for their power struggles, and they could go to great lengths to secure their positions.

Benjamin took a sip of tea and put his cup down. He didn’t say anything, but Hector, who was s beside him, said, “You think this is grand?

sitting “Do you know what our family has been going through lately? Even in overseas, life hasn’t been easy!” Verde City’s public opinion has a significant impact. But when it comes to believing that this influence has reached overseas, Cedric was skeptical.

After all, this is just a family matter, not an international one!

His cold gaze, which was on Hector, turned even colder at the other man’s words!

Rebecca couldn’t bear it any longer. She said irritatedly. “Isn’t it normal for there to be some issues among these wealthy families? And the recent rumors haven’t really affected the business, have they?

You want to wait until it affects our businesses?” Andrew retorted sterly, giving Rebecca a scolding Glance Rebecca was younger than him, and her words irked Andrew!

In response, Andrew turned to Elizabeth and said sarcastically, “My dear sister, is this how you raise your daughter–in–law? I can see how well she turned out!” “You…” Cedric’s eyes darkened further. Despite their advanced age, these people couldn’t help but vie for control within the family.

Even in a dire situation, they couldn’t let go of their pursuit of family inheritance rights.

Yes, he understood very well why they had come to visit today!

After so many years of struggle, they still refused to relinquish their claims.

Elizabeth shot a disapproving look at Rebecca.

“How can you speak to your uncle like this?” Although she reprimanded Rebecca, it was more of a symbolic gesture!

Rebecca slammed her teacup forcefully onto the table, making it clear that she didn’t welcome these people. Their intentions for visiting were obvious, so they wouldn’t speak much with Rebecca Their gaze shifted to Cedric.

“Wasn’t the eastern suburbs project always meant to be ours? How did we lose it so miserably?” Cedric remained silent.

“We have strong doubts about your ability to manage the company right now!” When talking about the eastern suburbs, their tone was full of dissatisfaction.

But when Rebecca heard the word, she was even more infuriated.

Why did they lose?

It was all because of Natalie!

That damn She should have kicked her out of the Johrison family a long time ago!

Rebecca had underestimated Natulie in the past, thinking she was just a weak and fragile woman However, the more Rebecca thought about it, the angrier she became!

“The impact on the company is inconsequential, Cedric replied coolly. “Also, whether I manage the company well or not is none of your concern. I’m the heir to this family. If you’re not happy with that, feel free to declare your separation from the Johnson family. It’s of no consequence to me.” Cedric’s indifference made it clear that their opinions didn’t sway him.

However, Cedric’s response only served to infuriate everyone present. They had initially intended to use the eastern suburbs project to pressure him into relinquishing his inheritance rights.

They had not anticipated his strong stance on the matter!

“You should be the one who has no connection to our family!” Samuel, who had remained silent until then, angrily retorted to Cedric.

Cedric’s grandfather, Desmond Johnson, had been the youngest of his siblings. Cedric’s family had controlled the Johnson family for many years, starting with his grandfather, then his father, and now him.

It seemed they were determined to allow no opportunities for other branches of the family.

Cedric turned to Christina. “Call in the security team.” He spoke in a calm tone, but the underlying message was clear to everyone in the room. Andrew and Benjamin exchanged glances, evidently unprepared for Cedric’s apparent lack of sympathy.

“Alright, that’s enough! We’re family, aren’t we? Why are we talking to each other like this?! Andrew said as he glared at Samuel and Hector.

It had only been a short three years, but Cedric had clearly changed into a completely different person.

The air around him was also different.

They understood that continuing to provoke Cedric from the outset would not benefit them in any way.

So, Andrew said, “Since we’ve lost a project, we should quickly find a replacement. The land beside Dragon Park can be developed into a good project.” Speaking of the land beside Dragon Park, it was also one Cedric now held in high regard.

It was clear that the Johnson family members had a similar sense of vision.

Don’t lose the project this time, or the company will incur significant losses. No matter how large the usiness is, it can’t withstand such recklessness.

See them out! Cedric said to Christine as he stood. He didn’t even spare a glance at the others in the Christina desperately wished she could disappear right now, but she was obedient when it came to Cedric.

However, she found it difficult to raise her head in front of the Johnson family members, regardless of the persona she portrayed in front of Natalie.

“Uncles, this way, please,” Christina nervously said.

Her complexion wasn’t great, clearly indicating that she was struggling.

Andrew and Benjamin felt slighted by Cedric’s indifference as he ignored them completely, and their expressions turned unpleasant. Naturally, this didn’t bode well for Christina.

“So the adopted daughter has grown so big, huh? If I didn’t know she was adopted, I wouldn’t have been. able to tell she wasn’t biologically yours!” This statement was a subtle insult meant to taunt Rebecca.

Rebecca’s face turned ashen with anger.

If it weren’t for Elizabeth holding her wrist, she might have gotten into a heated argument with them!

Back then, her health had been bad and caused her to be unable to bear children again.

These people had made countless sarcastic remarks about her when that happened.

There were certain things one could brush off, but some people had no filter when it came to their words!

In fact, when she adopted Christina, Rebecca had always hoped that Christina wouldn’t find out about her true parentage. novelbin But with such gossipy people around, it was hard to keep it a secret!

“Please leave!” Rebecca’s tone was curt, devoid of any respect.

Andrew and Benjamin coldly snorted and left.

Once they were gone, Christina turned resentful eyes to Rebecca and said, “Mom, look at them! What kind of people are they?” Tina! Elizabeth berated her before Rebecca could speak.

Elizabeth was a traditional woman. Despite having a somewhat strained relationship with her extended family, she highly valued the education of her younger generations and didn’t want Christina to behave This way Christina was already feeling resentful, and now her eyes were filled with tears.

Rebecca was initially upset, but when she saw Christina’s emotional state, she couldn’t help but feel compassion.

“It’s alright, sweetie. Why bother arguing with people like them? It serves them right for being this way their whole lives.” She was referring to those people, who, despite appearing authoritative, hadn’t had an easy time during their years abroad!

With Rebecca’s comforting words, Christina started to feel better. In the end, Rebecca truly cared for her. However, the fact that she wasn’t Rebecca’s biological child was like a thorn in Christina’s heart.

“I’ll go upstairs and check on him,” Rebecca said.

It had been a long time since Cedric had returned. Now that he was divorced from Natalie, Rebecca hoped that he would come back to live at home.

With him around, those people wouldn’t dare to show up unannounced.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 96-Thriving Career After Divorce In the upstairs study, Rebecca entered and was immediately greeted by a strong scent of tobacco.

She sat across from Cedric and asked, “How is she doing now?” She was referring to Natalie.

With the visit from members of the Johnson family today, Rebecca had grown increasingly convinced that Natalie had orchestrated the divorce on purpose If she had known about Natalie’s capabilities, she would have involved Natalie in the company years ago!

Even without a powerful background, it would have been enough that she had the skills.

“What, about her?” Cedric didn’t seem to fully grasp Rebecca’s question.

“I’m talking about things between you two!” “We’re divorced, which is what you wanted!” His statement left Rebecca speechless for a moment.

“Yes, we didn’t want you to be with her. Just look at everything she’s done since she married you.” Cedric remained silent.

“Before the divorce was finalized, she caused the company to suffer so many losses!” After considering that, Rebecca realized that she couldn’t possibly accept Natalie as her daughter–in- law.

Cedric’s eyes grew colder.

He had nothing to say about Natalie at the moment.

Rebecca added, “The Lambert family has been avoiding a marriage alliance with us because of the incident at the birthday party. Hah! It’s not like I wanted that alliance.” Speaking of the Lambert family, they remained unresponsive no matter how Rebecca tried to contact them was as if they thought Jocelyn was so great!

he was. But she was still not worthy enough of Cedric “Is there anything else you need?” Cedric inquired.

“Yes. Be cautious with the company, and keep an eye on the piece of land next to Dragon Park. We can’t afford any more mishaps!” Before Cedric’s return, she and Elizabeth had to endure all sorts of comments from those people, and none of it was pleasant.

If there were any more mishaps this time, those people might come knocking again.

At that time, those people might be extremely eager to take harsh measures against them!

Cedric didn’t know how he managed to leave the Johnson Manor, but one thing was crystal clear to him- he couldn’t have any mishaps regarding the land beside Dragon Park.

Of course, he wasn’t afraid!

It was just that.

If that piece of land fell into someone else’s hands, it would have a significant impact on his plans for next year!

In contrast to Cedric’s worries, Natalie was having a relaxed time. While her studio remained busy, it had no significant effect on her.

The land next to Dragon Park was now up for bids, and among the bidders were Cedric and the powerful Premier Garden Corporation.

The CEO of Premier Garden Corporation, Caleb Spencer, happened to be Irwin’s friend.

Just when Natalie learned about the bidding for the land next to Dragon Park, a representative from Premier Garden arrived to meet her.

The representative first met Karina before she was brought into Natalie’s office.

They heard about our successful collaboration with Mr. Frazier, so they would like to work with us to acquire the land next to Dragon Park.” Alright. I got it.

Natalie’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this The person who arrived was an intelligent and competent woman. She was tall and dressed in a sharp, neutral outfit. She looked like the epitome of a corporate professional.

“Hello, I’m Yvonne Lane,” The woman said. She extended her hand with a serious and polite demeanor, exhibiting typical corporate etiquette.

Natalie shook her hand and replied, “Nice to meet you. Please have a seat.” Natalie naturally held a different attitude towards someone recommended by Irwin.

They spent two hours inside Natalie’s office.

Karina wondered what those two were discussing inside. She glanced multiple times in the direction of Natalie’s office.

Yvonne seemed like quite a challenging person to communicate with.

However, when Yvonne emerged from the office, there was a hint of a smile on her face, though it still appeared as reserved as ever.

But it was clearly different from the seriousness she had when she entered.

“Let’s finalize the draft for now. I must say, time is limited.” “Alright, I understand.” Natalie nodded and personally saw her out.

There was no doubt that Yvonne had relayed the intentions of her CEO to Natalie. They expected Natalie to base her work on their proposal.

Natalie naturally preferred clients who had their own ideas from the start, as it provided her with a starting point.

Yvonne added, “However, Ms. Walker, I must remind you that our company also has an elite design team. This arrangement here is a courtesy from Mr. Spencer to Mr. Frazier.” Natalie remained silent.

That was quite a direct statement. In the past, she wouldn’t have tolerated it, but things were different now.

She had changed!

Natalie responded, “I understand. Rest assured.” Then, please excuse me.

“Karina, please see her out.” “Yes, ma’am!” Karina said as she hurried over.

Karina escorted Yvonne out.

Natalie returned to her office, shaking her head with a wry smile.

These companies seemed to despise shortcuts the most, didn’t they?

She had taken a shortcut herself with Irwin.

At that time, Irwin had the same attitude towards her. So, one needed to have some real capability; otherwise, even those who took shortcuts wouldn’t look good.

Just then, her phone buzzed. She checked to see that it was Dylan calling.

Natalie answered, “Hello, Mr. Warren!” “Have you met with Premier Garden’s representative?” “Yes, she just left. Please convey my thanks to Mr. Frazier.” Although Natalie wasn’t too keen on taking these new projects, she couldn’t decline this one outright since Irwin had recommended her.

She couldn’t risk hurting his reputation, so she would have to take this one!

She would just have to postpone her return to Simeria.

“Mr. Frazier would like to have lunch with you. Can you spare some time?” “We had dinner together just last night!” Natalie replied with a straight face.

Not only did they have dinner together, but Irwin also dropped her off at work this morning!

Thinking about her current collaboration with Premier Garden Corporation, she hesitated and said, “Well, It’s just that…” “Mr. Frazier said that as thanks for the deal with Premier Garden, you should treat him to a meal.

Before Natalle could finish her sentence, Dylan cut in and said that which made her stop short.

With that, she swallowed the wards that had been on the tip of her tongue.

“Alright then.” After hanging up the phone and checking the time, Natalle realized it was still early. She got back to work, focusing on the eastern suburbs project, which she was personally handling for Irwin.

With the involvement of the adjacent piece of land now, she could also roughly understand what Improvements would work best to complement their existing project.

It didn’t take long for Cedric to get wind of the fact that Natalie took on the design collaboration with Premier Garden Corporation Even though Premier Garden Corporation was not as prestigious as Apex Global, Cedric had learned his lesson after his previous loss to Irwin.

He wasn’t underestimating anyone anymore.

This time, he had Yuvan investigate which design team was working with Premier Garden Corporation and whether they had any other external collaborations.

Back when Irwin was involved, Cedric had only focused on Apex Global’s internal design team.

He never expected Irwin to use an external design team, much less Natalie’s!

When Yuvan handed him the results, Cedric couldn’t help but feel a chill down his spine.

“She really has some tricks up her sleeve, huh? She even managed to get a collaboration with Premier Garden!

Now, she was even involved with Premier Garden Corporation!

He had to take back everything he’d said before about her being unable to find a job outside the house. She wasn’t just employable; people were competing to have her!

Yuvan stood nervously across from Cedric, unsure of what to say about Natalie in this situation.

“What is she up to? Cedric asked, seemingly nonchalant.

Yuvan, however, was sweating bullets!

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 97-Who is Depressed “A representative from Premier Garden was with her just now. It was Yvonne Lane, Caleb Spencer’s assistant!” Premier Garden Corporation had personally sent someone to Natalie’s doorstep instead of inviting Natalie to come over to their company.

It could be seen how much attention had been given to the piece of land next to Dragon Park in the eastern suburbs this time.

In other words, Verde City has already been developed to a considerable extent. So, local land was quite in demand, and many people would be involved as soon as there was any news, For Premier Garden Corporation to reach out to Natalie, who had worked with Apex Global, clearly indicated their inevitable intention for that piece of land!

Through the previous bidding and Premier Garden Corporation’s actions, companies of all sizes related to Verde City have now seen Natalie’s strength.

So, Yuvan also could see it clearly now!

“Would you like to have lunch with her at noon?” Yuvan asked nervously.

Though Cedric seemed to be completely unaffected on the outside, it was completely different on the inside.

Last time, he had lost the bidding to his own wife.

Now, they were divorced… And Natalie had become even more ruthless!

“Eat with her?” Cedric sneered.

Naturally, he understood what Yuvan meant.

But it was Natalie…!

Thinking of her, he recalled how hateful she looked at him previously.

The hatred in her eyes had burned so intensely.

What had he done to make her hate him so much? If the hete in her eyes was real, then she must hate enough to want to tear him to shreds, right?

She was serious!

Cedric closed his eyes. There was an unfathomable expression on his face.

Yuvan tentatively said, “None of expected Ms. Walker to have such abilities. The landmark building she designed actually passed smoothly!” This was something that even the most experienced designers could not achieve.

Usually, all drafts had to go through multiple selections and comparisons.

However, Natalie’s designs were accepted on the day of the bidding with results on the same day.

“You’re dismissed!” Cedric doesn’t want to hear about Natalie right now.

Yuvan nodded. He breathed a sigh of relief inwardly and left. This was the last place on earth he wanted to be right now. The air around Cedric was so murderous it was almost to the point of suffocating.

After Yuvan left, Cedric lit a cigarette and took two long drags. However, the action couldn’t conceal the deep irritation in his eyes.

“Natalie…” What should he do with that woman now?!

When he thought of her now, a feeling of helplessness and exasperation crept up novelbin He really wanted to know how he had pushed her to this point?!

t to recall… He tried his best to recall….

But the more he thought about it, the less he could understand.

s spine.

Hadn’t he been good to her all these years? He had never let her suffer any grievances by his side.

Only Isabella…!

When he thought about Isabella, he crushed the cigarette butt in his hand. A cold glint flashed in his eyes!

If she wasn’t Ivan’s sister… she would have dead and six feet under by now.

Just then, his phone vibrated.

It was a call from the hospital, An anxious nurse was on the other side of the call.

“Mr. Johnson, please come over quickly! Ms. Morgan jumped off the building…!” Cedric was speechless.

Half an hour later, Cedric arrived at the door of the emergency room. Driving from his company usually took at least fifty minutes, but he had rushed over as soon as possible.

“How is she?” Cedric coldly asked the doctor who had exited ed the room The doctor hesitated when he saw Cedric. “Mr. Johnson, Ms. Morgan’s current condition is not great. She will come out shortly.” “What happened?” He was asking Why Isabella jumped off the building.

In fact, he probably had an idea why she had done that!

The doctor said, “Ms. Morgan has been down these past few days. She might be a bit depressed. As her guardian, you should spend more time with her.” Depressed?!

Did she feel such things?!

Undoubtedly, Cedric directly classified Isabella as an extremely evidence.

Anyone else could be depressed… except for someone like her.

“We after looking at th Soon, a nurse wheeled Isabella out of the emergency room and escorted her back to the ward.

Cedric followed behind.

Inside the ward, Isabella still had her eyes covered with white cloth as she sat on the hospital bed. Compared to before, she looked even more pitiful.

But now, there was no trace of pity in Cedric’s eyes when he looked at her. On the contrary, there was only mockery and sarcasm.

“Why did you have to do this?” After a while, Cedric finally spoke, breaking the oppressive silence.

Isabella moved slightly from her position in bed to look in Cedric’s direction. Because her eyes were covered with a white cloth, Cedric couldn’t see the emotions in her eyes.

His l*ps were pressed tightly together, and his elegant face remained cold.

Isabella took a deep breath and said, “If I had known that this was the only way I could see you, I would have done it a long time ago.” Even breathing looked like a painful task for her.

Cedric looked at her and said, “You’re quite a schemer, aren’t you?” Previously, he had never spoken to her in this tone or said such things.

And now…!

The tone he usually reserved for Natalie was now being used on Isabella.

Compared to his all–knowing attitude, the woman on the bed looked puzzled.

“What do you mean?” “What do I mean? Don’t you know what I mean, Isabella? You’re nothing to me. I only took care of you because you’re Ivan’s sister.” “Why did you do such a thing? Why did you force me to divorce her?” When he talked about his divorce with Natalie, Cedric felt his heart ache. Having lived with Natalie for so many years, he naturally knew what kind of person Natalie was.

She had… divorced him!

He hadn’t understood why she had gotten involved with Stephen and Irwin, but now… Now he understood.

His life was complicated, and she had nothing. She had no support of her own! Those who once regarded her as an eyesore would surely not let her off so easily and would seek to eliminate her completely.

had been forced to get closer to trwin–a man more dang She even disregarded her reputation and got involved with Stephen while she was abroad.

She was smart, but she had also been backed into a corner.

She…!

Since Natalie had known him, Cedric had truly cherished her. He really thought he did… but who would have thought?!

The situation about Isabella’s eyes was urgent, and he had said such things to Natalie!

Yet, why would she be willing? She hated Isabella!

So, it was only natural that Natalie didn’t want to give her eyes to an enemy. And then… the moment she knew Isabella was plotting against her, she went abroad!

All the timing of Natalie’s actions added “Are you saying that I’m the one who forced you to divorce her?” Isabella asked sadly.

She made it seem like his suspicion hurt her.

Cedric looked at her pitiful appearance and stood up swiftly.

“From now on, you’re on your own!” Without waiting for Isabella’s reaction, Cedric walked out of the ward.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 98-The Obedient Daughter–in–law After lunch, Irwin dropped Natalie back to the office. As soon as Natalie entered the office, she felt that something was amiss.

Karina gave her a meaningful look in the direction of her office.

“Is he here?” Natalie was referring to Cedric.

Karina nodded. “Yes.” It was just as Natalie expected!

Cedric had lost the piece of land in the eastern suburbs. Without a doubt, he would now keep an eye on what was happening near Dragon Park.

So, he would be aware of any movement from the companies involved.

Just this morning, she met Yvonne from Premier Garden Corporation.

Now, he was here during lunch.

Natalie took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, and then entered her office.

The strong smell of smoke hit her nose!

There were cigarette butts in the disposable cup in front of Cedric, indicating that he had arrived shortly after she left.

When he heard the door open, Cedric turned around. novelbin Natalie’s heart clenched when she saw the deep pain in his eyes. However, she quickly composed herself.

“What do you want?” she asked as she walked to her seat and pretended not to know.

Cedric looked at the custom–made outfit she was wearing. It was designed by a famous designer, and it was also part of a limited edition collection.

The pain in his eyes was replaced by burning anger immediately. But it was extinguished when he thought about their current relationship, Their eyes met, and Natalie remained silent. She simply watched as Cedric’s gaze lost the previous tness and became.sharp and composed:

“I never knew you had this side to you!” he said.

“What? Did you think I was just an obedient daughter–in–law who only knows how to cook and serve the elderly at home?” The once obedient demeanor now seemed repulsive in retrospect.

To put it nicely, she was an obedient daughter–in–law. But to Rebecca and the others, she had always been treated like a slave.

Even the servants at the Johnson Manor were considered more noble than her.

“Nat,” Cedric said in a tone filled with pain.

out.

He moved his l*ps, wanting to say something, but nothing came o He thought about Isabella’s schemes against her. 1 Although it was just one incident…!

Natalie had experienced it firsthand. Cedric didn’t dare to think about how much she had gone through during that time.

How had she endured it?

Natalie’s expression turned cold when she heard him use such an intimate nickname. “Call me Ms.

Walker, just like the rest of them!‘ Cedric was silent.

He stiffened slightly at her words.

Ms. Walker?

It was such an unfamiliar way of addressing her!

But he had to admit… This woman used to be useless and only knew how to stay at home. She used to only know how to go shopping and swipe her credit cards.

Now, everyone who saw her would respectfully address her as Ms. Walker.

Alright, Ms. Walker, Cedric said with a faint smile that was tinged with mockery.

The bitterness on his smile meant nothing to Natalie, The man before her right now was someone who would do anything for isabella Who knew what he was up to now?

Cedric’s eyes were unreadable at this moment. He said firmly, “From now on, cut off all contact with Irwin and Stephen.” His sudden change surprised Natalie.

“What do you mean?” Clearly, Natalie didn’t understand what this change meant for him. Cedric looked at her with an unfathomable look in his eyes. Natalie had seen this look before. It was the look that made her think that she had never truly understood Cedric “Isabella’s schemes against you should end here. Things between us should never have reached this point,” Cedric said.

Natalie was speechless.

Should never have reached this point?

Was he admitting his mistake?

This is just ridiculous…!

“And what do you think things between us should be like? On what grounds do you say it should end here?

Natalie’s tone in the latter question was full of coldness.

End here?

He made it sound so simple!

It had concerned her child’s life and her own!

With all these things combined, Cedric was now telling her it should end here?!

What right did he have? Who did he think he was?!

Taking a deep breath, she ignored the heaviness in her chest. She looked at the man before her with a sharp, questioning look in her eyes.

Looking at Natalie in this state, Cedric suddenly didn’t know what to say.

am Just as Cedric was about to say something, his phone rang and interrupted him.

This time, it was Yuvan calling.

Cedric hung up directly, but the phone rang again the next moment.

Natalie’s sharp gaze was still leveled at him, and Cedric impatiently answered the phone.

This had better be important!” “Mr. Johnson, the wound on Ms. Morgan’s eyes is severely infected. She refuses to change the dressing or take injections!” “Are you still unaware of her situation?!” Cedric roared.

That’s right. He was clearly aware of Isabella’s current situation!

Yuvan was stunned!

Just as Cedric was about to hang up, he heard Yuvan say, “I’m at the hospital!” “What do you mean?” While asking this question, Cedric’s gaze remained on Natalie’s face. Natalie was still staring at him.

Their eyes flickered with uncertain emotions as they stared at each other.

It was Isabella again!

So, what was left between them?

Even if they continued to be together, Isabella would always be between them.

Natalie hated herself. She hated why she couldn’t see through all of this in her past life, which had led her to her tragic end.

Cedric didn’t take his eyes off Natalie, but his tone softened slightly as he asked, “What do you mean!?” In recent days, he rarely answered calls from the hospital. Without a doubt, he knew what his image was like in the hospital now.

If it weren’t for the complications in the eastern suburbs recently, those people in the hospital would have faced the consequences of deceiving him!

Yuvan hesitantly said, “Ma Morgan, she has indeed gone blind. There seems to be an issue with those, Things Was he referring to the things exposed on gossip websites before?

“Is that true?” In an instant, the air around the man turned cold.

Natalie’s mind buzzed.

So, that woman went to such lengths to plot against her, even resorting to such ruthless actions?!

Natalie couldn’t help but smile mockingly at how Cedric was looking at her now.

Isabella turned out to be more persistent than she thought!

She didn’t know what else was said on the phone, but the moment Cedric hung up, his gaze on her changed!

At that moment, Natalie just smiled.

It was a mocking smile.

“Your assistant, Karina, was the one who posted those things on the app, right?” Without a doubt, Yuvan had reported who was the first to release the information.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 99-Won’t Let You Off Natalie looked at him and continued to smile. Cedric felt a burst of irritation at her demeanor!

Bang!

He stood up and slammed his fist hard on her office desk. The force was so strong that her desk trembled.

Natalie replied, “Yes, I told her to post it. I originally intended for you to look at it first. You knew that. Why are you asking again?” “How could you do such a thing?” How could she do such a thing?

Did she do something wrong?

She was just retaliating.

Based on Cedric’s logic, was she supposed to lie down and take the beating if someone came after her? Could she not return a hit or two?

Natalie ignored the pain in her chest and took a deep breath.

“It’s best if you leave immediately!!

“Natalie, if anything happens to her, I won’t let you off!” The man roared and Natalie trembled with anger.

As the man left, she shot back, “I’m ready anytime!” He wouldn’t let her off?

Did he think she was afraid of him?

Bang!

The office door slammed shut.

A away Cedric had wanted to apologize to her a short time ago, and now he probably wished he could slam the dear on hert As soon as Cedric left, Karina came in.

at happened? Kanna asked, looking at Natalie’s pale face.

Natalie struggled to control her trembling b*dy. When Cedric left just now, the chill emanating from clearly indicated that something had happened here.

ale remained silent, and Karina simply watched her quietly, waiting for her to speak Ather a few minutes, Natalie finally recovered. She smoothened out her expression for Karin vered stiff no matter how she tried to look natural.

Even if she went through it again, she would still be shaken by anger.

Cedric truly challenged her understanding!

isabella is really blind this time,” Natalie said after taking a deep breath.

er words left Karina stunned!

When do you mean?

What did it mean for Isabella to be truly blind? There were several possible interpretations!

tale looked at Karina. “Tell me, how could she do such a thing?” to her herself just to deal with Natalie–this level of cunning was beyond Natalie’s expectations tim There were very few people in the world with such methods, and this woman was truly ruthless to have furtherself to achieve her goal.

Kas had never anticipated this “That’s so ruthless! She actually hurt herself like this?! How did she manage to do it? Karina wondered e dont know for sure yet gle could only speciate at this point. Isabella might have actually blinded herself because she Ewded to rely on Cedric and wages Natalie had exposed were definitely a devastating blow to Isabella’s plan wind. Bw only way might be for Isabella to truly go blind being so heartless to “Do you need to temporarily go back to Simeria?” Karina asked, looking at Natalie with concern.

Karina was a smart person; she naturally understood the purpose of Isabella’s actions. Everyone on Natalie’s side knew that Isabella was targeting Natalie. And Natalie was well aware of the relationship between Isabella and Cedric.

Ivan had died for Cedric!

Otherwise, why would Cedric propose the idea of letting her use her eyes for Isabella? He wouldn’t easily involve her.

It was evident that Isabella held a special place in his heart, to a truly repulsive extent.

Natalie closed her eyes.

When she opened them again, they were clear and sharp.

“Help me find a private investigator.” “What do you mean?” “My uncle is too far away. It’s taking too long. I need to know as soon as possible why Isabella hates me!” It wasn’t as simple as Isabella wanting Cedric for herself. If it were just because of Cedric, she would be like Christina and end the animosity after Natalie had divorced Cedric But instead of letting go, Isabella had become more ferocious. She even cruelly blinded herself.

In such a situation, Natalie was curious about what kind of person Isabella really was.

At this moment, Natalie had only one thought: to find out!

Stephen was in Simeria.

That was too far away…!

“Alright, I understand,” Karina nodded.

In reality, Stephen hadn’t been too concerned about Isabella’s situation. He had been busy putting things into place for Natalie to inherit his position.

Outside of this matter, nothing else was important.

As for Isabella’s situation, Natalie could handle it herself, so he wasn’t overly concemed. If he had been, the results would have been different by now.

Karina understood this.

At the hospital, there were doctors and nurses in the ward when Cedric arrived. Yuvan was also inside.

The bandage covering Isabella’s eyes had already been removed, revealing a wound that looked horrifying.

Yuvan kept persuading, “Ms. Morgan, don’t be like this! If you continue like this, you may never regain your eyesight.” “I don’t mind not recovering. Humanity is so ugly. After seeing so much, it’s disgusting.” Isabella said, sitting on the bed.

She was adamant about not letting anyone approach her.

Yuvan’s forehead was covered in a thin layer of cold sweat. Cedric had a gloomy expression in his eyes as he watched the scene.

“M–Mr. Johnson!” A nurse, noticing the cold aura surrounding Cedric, stammered in fear.

Everyone tensed up when they saw Cedric. Upon hearing Cedric’s arrival, Isabella couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction!

Ignoring the nurse’s fear, Cedric approached and said, “Everyone, leave.” “Yes, sir!” With Cedric’s command, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and left the room in disarray. Yuvan respectfully glanced at Cedric, nodded, and exited the room.

Once only Cedric and Isabelle were left in the ward, Cedric looked at Isabella’s back. Her long black hair cascaded down her slender back.

Her appearance seemed even more fragile and slender, especially with her long, disheveled black hair.

“Why do you torment yourself like this?” Cedric’s suppressed anger was evident in his voice.

I don’t want to see it! Isabella’s response showed complete indifference to Cedric’s restrained anger.

Cedric sighed. ‘Behove yourself. Let me change the dressing for you.” Leave. I don’t want to see you Cedric’s attempt to ease the situation, Isabella remained adamant and strong–willed.

Cedric’s heart tightened. The wounds on her eyes seemed to be infected, indicating that she hadn’t properly changed the dressing in the past few days.

The doctors had warned that it could be dangerous if the wounds became infected again.

“Isabella!” Cedric’s tone became more urgent. The thought that she might never see again made him feel suffocated.

A Divorce After My Rebirth Chapter 100-Too Ruthless to Outplay Natalie hadn’t seen Biarica for several days.

After work, she bought groceries and went straight to Bianca’s place. They prepared a feast together.

Before they sat down, Natalie opened a beer and took a big swig from the bottle.

Bianca was shocked!

“I hope you don’t get drunk; it’s hard to take care of you.” Knowing Natalie’s poor alcohol tolerance, Bianca tried to feed her a piece of beef, hoping she would eat something before drinking more.

Natalie took a bite, and they exchanged a smile. As they sat down, Bianca enjoyed a piece of chicken. Both of them were naturally slender, allowing them to indulge in eating and drinking whenever they were together.

“There’s something on your mind, isn’t there?‘ Bianca remarked while observing Natalie.

Years of friendship allowed Bianca to sense when something was bothering Natalie. Instead of directly answering, Natalie took another sip of her drink.

Bianca raised an eyebrow.

Well, it seemed like there really was something on Natalie’s mind, and it was something major!

After another sip, Natalie finally spoke, “Isabella is really blind now.” Bianca almost choked on her food. She glared at Natalie.

Seriously… she couldn’t have picked a better time to drop this bomb?!

The situation with Isabella had caused a stir in Verde City. Everyone knew she pretended to be blind and disabled to force Cedric and Natalie to divorce.

But now:

“What do you mean by that?” Although Bianca was quick–witted, at this moment, she still didn’t understand the meaning behind Natalie’s words.

Did she mean that labelin was really blind now?

After all, the online rumors were considered facts–Isabella bribing doctors, walking freely in the hospital, and all those videos.

Could they all be false?

Natalie sighed, “Cedric hasn’t left the hospital yet. You don’t need to think too hard to know that the situation there is not good.” “She faked her blindness, and now she’s really blind?! What the hell is this?!” Bianca was genuinely puzzled.

Both Natalie and Cedric were divorced now, so Isabella’s actions shouldn’t affect them anymore, right?

Natalie had thought the same before this.

She ran her fingers through her hair and took another sip of alcohol. Only the taste of alcohol could temporarily calm her now.

“I want to know why she hates me so much. Why would she go to such lengths, even blinding herself to get back at me?” She wasn’t blind before–it was all part of the deception.

And now, she was truly blind.

Bianca swallowed nervously. “There are no grudges between you two, so she shouldn’t hate you so much, right? You haven’t done anything to her.” “Yeah, that’s why it’s even stranger. I really want to know why she hates me so much, to the point she would blind herself just to get back at me.” Now, Bianca understood.

Isabella had faked her blindness before, all part of a scheme against Natalle.

But this level of deception, especially when it had nothing to do with Cedric anymore, was indeed perplexing.

So, what was the reason?

She’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing!” Blanca couldn’t help but describe Isabella this way after thinking of many other phrases. However, she became curious zam did Isabella hate about Natalie?

To hate someone to the extent of self–mutilation?

Natalie nodded, “She’s too ruthless. I can’t outplay her.” Previously, she had thought about how to fight back. Now, she realized that even a slight retaliation resulted in Isabella truly harming herself. If she continued fighting back, Isabella might even throw her life away.

“She’s too ruthless!” What kind of hatred was this?

If it wasn’t extreme hatred, why go to such lengths?

Isabella was different from those women outside who admired Cedric. Those women who only wanted Cedric for themselves would calm down once Natalie and Cedric divorced!

“When did Isabella come to Verde City?” “Six months ago.” Six months ago… That was when she appeared, and various rumors about her and Cedric started circulating.

It was also when Natalie’s world began to crumble.

“Her brother saved Cedric’s life before. I originally assumed that she might hate Cedric because of her brother’s death and target me. But now, I don’t think so. It’s definitely not that straightforward. There’s more to Isabella’s background than we know.” Bianca was shocked. She hadn’t expected such a deep connection. Her eyes were full of concern for Natalie.

The relationship between her and Cedric is not simple.” “Yes, it isn’t.” It was more than that.

Whenever something happened to Isabella, Cedric would immediately take her side and disregard his wife of ten years.

After tonight, who knows what the situation will turn Into!

Metalle had no idea when the air in Verde City became so suffocating “Well, why don’t you go abroad? There’s no need to stay in Verde City.” Bianca was now genuinely.

concerned about Natalie.

Isabella hated her to the point of blinding herself just to scheme against Natalie. If things continued like this, who knew what would happen?

Natalie’s uncle was in Simeria!

If she went back to Simeria, she would be under the protection of her influential uncle, and no one could harm her.

Natalie glanced at Bianca. “It’s not that easy.” “True, you’re a career woman now. Even if you want to move abroad, you have to wait until your current projects are finished.” “That’s right.” If Natalie could, she would love to go abroad right away. The country was really suffocating.

However, sincerity and honesty were everything when doing business.

She had just started, so she needed to finish what she had in hand.

Bianca took a sip from her glass. “Seeing you like this, I’ve lost faith in relationships!” It was the truth.

After ten years of a relationship ending up like this, what was the point of having such feelings?

Natalie’s heart skipped a beat. “The relationship between Cedric and Isabella is different. Don’t generalize everything!” Thinking back now, Cedric’s special treatment of Isabella was all because of a man named Ivan.

Although she found the root cause, it didn’t change that he had been cruel to her for Isabella’s sake. He had done it because of his gratitude toward Ivan, and it was something she couldn’t forgive.

Sometimes, there are aspects of understanding between couples that shouldn’t be compromised. In the case of Isabella, Natalie couldn’t give in, even if she loved him deeply.

Even if the love was strong, some things were just impossible.

Just as Bianca was about to say something, Natalie’s phone rang It was a call from Cedric, and the Urgency of the ringtone Indicated the current state of the man on the other end actions may ng the agrward the sound of someone off A and be exchanged glances The case was so that it was evident someone had kicked Natalie ended the call without hesitation.

Without needing to think, she knew what he wanted to say.

But the next moment, a thunderous noise echoed through the apartment–the sound of someone forcefully kicking the anti–theft door.

Natalie and Bianca exchanged glances. The noise was so loud that it was evident someone had kicked ‘the door directly.

Bianca stood up. I’ll go deal with him.” “No!” Natalie refused without a second thought.

Cedric was in a fit of rage right now..
