A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 51 Good News

Natalie turned to look at Cedric, who was still holding Isabella in his arms.

Isabella… She didn’t appear flustered at all, despite being exposed.

She remained calmly nestled in Cedric’s embrace.

When Natalie had lunged at her, Cedric had already set her down. However, he still had one arm wrapped around her, protecting her.

The irony of the situation wasn’t lost on anyone.

Cedric was momentarily frozen. He glanced at his own hand and then at Natalie. The guilt that briefly crossed his eyes was quickly concealed.

What remained was a warning and disappointed look directed at Natalie. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

And as for Natalie….

“How many times does this make?” Natalie asked.

Cedric’s tone was icy. “You’re becoming more and more unruly,”

“Hah!”

Unruly, huh?

At this moment, Cedric bore a strikingly similar image to his father. This was how his father usually spoke

to Rebecca.

All men from the Johnson family were the same.

What was a woman to them?

Natalie had thought that Cedric was different than them. She had thought he was an exception.

Ultimately, it seemed that the apple didn’t fall too far from the tree.

was

When they had a falling out, Cedric was suddenly as oppressive as the head of the family. Everyone had

to listen to him, and everyone else was wrong.

“Cedric, you disgust me,” Natalie said, turning around and walking away.

She no longer wanted to see him.

How many times has it been now?

Natalie had also lost count.

She had forgotten how many times this man had slapped her because of Isabella.

Was he disappointed in her?

No, he didn’t have the right

She was even more disappointed in him.

“Stop right there!” Cedric shouted at Natalie.

He was about to chase after her, but Isabella fainted in his arms.

Natalie left the hospital in a daze.

Standing under the night sky, she shivered when the cold wind swept over her. She was wearing thin

clothing, and the chill seemed to penetrate deep into her bones

But this was nothing compared to the chill in her heart.

It also didn’t even compare to the coldness Cedric had brought into her life.

She pulled out her phone with shaky hands and called Bianca, who picked up quickly. When Natalie greeted her, her voice was filled with helplessness.

On the other end of the line, Bianca was taken aback by Natalie’s tone.

“Where are you?”

“I’m… at the hospital.”

“Are you injured? Stay where you are! I’m on my way!”

With that, Bianca abruptly ended the call. She didn’t even ask which hospital Natalie was at.

Clearly, Bianca was also panicked.

When the call ended, Natalie looked up at the night sky filled with dark clouds. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she forced them back down.

Perhaps even the heavens pitied her.

Soon rain began to pour

When Bianca arrived, she saw Natalie standing in the rain, her whole b*dy drenched. Her appearance was

so heart wrenching that it sent shivers down anyone’s spine

“Nat!” Bianca got out of her car and rushed toward her. She took off her coat and wrapped it around

Natalie

Then, she scolded Natalie, “What are you doing? Are you trying to get yourself killed?”

Natalie’s health wasn’t good, and her b*dy surely couldn’t endure being soaked in the rain like this.

Natalie looked at Bianca

Her face was wet, and it was hard to tell if it was rain or tears. The tears she had tried to hold back.

seemed to have finally escaped.

“Where’s Cedric?” Bianca asked, probably aware of why Natalie was there.

Instead of answering, Natalie simply stared blankly at Bianca.

If even Bianca wasn’t there for her…

Would they have succeeded in driving Natalie to her death at this moment?

In a choked voice, she replied, “He’s inside.”

“Did he bring you here?”

“Yeah.”

*I’ll go find him.”

Bianca was infuriated when she heard that Cedric had brought her here.

He had left Natalie out in the rain?!

And where was he? Inside that woman’s hospital room?

But as she turned to leave, Natalie tugged at her clothes. “Bia.”

“Let go of me. I’ll go tear that bitch apart!”

“No need.”

“Natalie, why are you still so soft–hearted?”

Soft? Yes, she was soft in her previous life.

But in this life, she wouldn’t be!

She just refused to resort to such means to confront them. She wanted to handle things in the most

typical way.

“Come with me for a checkup.”

“Are you injured?”

“Yeah,” Natalie nodded.

Upon hearing this, Bianca was even more furious.

However, Natalie didn’t want to stay here any longer.

After he had dealt with Isabella, Cedric tried to call Natalie. However, her phone had already been

switched off!

When he finally came out, he saw Bianca supporting a drenched Natalie into the car.

His heart tightened for a moment.

He recalled how Natalie had looked back in the hospital room. Her once gentle eyes had lacked warmth, and only an icy glint had remained.

Bianca took Natalie to another hospital for a checkup. The dim lighting outside had made it difficult to see the bruises on Natalie’s face, but Bianca could clearly see the marks now.

She was furious!

“How many times has he hit you for that wretched woman?”

Natalie closed her eyes.

She didn’t want to discuss this matter, because she had lost count herself.

‘I’ll drive you back.”

They had done what they came to do, so Bianca wanted Natalie to rest. It was already past two in the

Natalie shook her head. “I have something important to do.”

“What else do you need to do?”

“I need… Cedric to lose!” Natalie’s eyes flashed with intense hatred.

Bianca couldn’t help but shudder after seeing this side of Natalie. She rarely saw Natalie in this state. It

was evident that this time, her hatred for Cedric had reached its limit.

After leaving the hospital, Bianca planned to drop Natalie off at the coffee shop. However, Natalie

refused. After all, it was too late.

She wanted Bianca to go back and rest.

It was already so late at night….

Under normal circumstances, she would never have called Bianca. But tonight, she had felt extremely

helpless.

Yes. Given the situation at the time, she didn’t know what to do and just wanted to find a reliable shoulder

to lean on.

When Natalie returned to the coffee shop, Karina and the others were anxiously pacing around. After

several rounds of revisions to their designs, they had become more uncertain about the situation with

Irwin

“You’re back…” Karina saw Natalie and was quite excited.

After all, Natalie still had her skills. Without her tonight, this deal might fall through.

However, when she noticed the marks on Natalie’s face, her heart skipped a beat.

Natalie said, “Let’s get started.”

“S–started?”

“Yeah.” Natalie nodded firmly. The determination in her eyes was unprecedented. This confidence seemed to motivate everyone instantly, and they straightened up.

Natalie took her seat before her computer. She took up her pencil and began sketching and researching.

No one knew where her determination and confidence came from.

But one thing was clear, she wanted Cedric to experience his first defeat in life!

Yea, she wanted him to lose!

Cedric had never faced off against Irwin before. He had always had the upper hand in Verde City, never having anyone make him lose.

But this time…!

The lights in the coffee shop remained on the entire night.
