A DIVORCE AFTER MY REBIRTH - Season 2 Episode 86

When the two returned to Scarlet Villa, everything had indeed been prepared. Natalie sat quietly at the

dining table, eating her food. She had been silent ever since Cedric defended Christina again in the

car.

At this moment, her face appeared calm, but it gave Cedric the feeling of it being the calm before the

storm.

“Nat.”

In the end, he couldn’t help but break the silence.

“What?”

“I know things at the Johnson Manor weren’t too good for you before, but it’s all in the past now, hmm?”

“Are you advising me to go back? Or are you letting it go because of my uncle?” Natalie sneered.

In the past?!

That was not how she understood it. Although Cedric showed her that he could stand proudly at the

pinnacle even without her uncle’s support, Rebecca’s actions gave her a different feeling at this crucial

moment.

She felt uncomfortable inside!

“Your mother must be regretting it now, right? She did set aside her pride and approached me, you

know?

Seems like she doesn’t have much confidence in you.”

Natalie’s words became more and more brazen

Cedric’s face turned cold.

Apparently, he wasn’t too pleased with Natalie talking about his mother this way, regardless of what

kind

of person Rebecca was.

But even though Rebecca was a complicated character, she had suffered a lot, especially in matters.

related to Cedric inheriting the position in the Johnson family.

Anyone who understood Rebecca’s situation would know why she insisted on finding Cedric a woman

from an equal background.

As a mother, she wanted to protect her child, Even if she couldn’t protect him, she would find someone

Although Cedric didn’t need such protection, it was a common trait of mothers.

“In these years you lived in the Johnson family, what do you think of Uncle Benjamin?”

Benjamin?

In Natalie’s view, he was always the one making a fuss the most whenever there was trouble in the

Johnson family. Cedric never liked those uncles much. Putting aside how much influence they had in

the family, they were also always restless regarding family affairs.

“He might have been involved in what happened to my father. Although things haven’t been revealed…

Nat, it hasn’t been easy for her in the Johnson family.”

Especially after Cedric’s father passed on.

What kind of heavy blow had Rebecca suffered? How much had she endured on the road to taking

over

the Johnson family after Cedric’s father had assumed control?

Cedric had seen all of that.

Natalie didn’t respond. But at this moment, she understood even more clearly what kind of presence

Rebecca held in Cedric’s heart.

Putting down the spoon in her hand, she looked at Cedric with a serious expression and said, “I didn’t

intend to talk about your mother. Since it’s come to this, I’ll ask one more question.”

“What?”

“If Regal Horizons goes bankrupt, how do you think she will treat me?”

She was very rational. Natalle remained unmoved even though Rebecca had softened toward her.

Natalie understood. She was so rational and clear–headed that… it made her seem icy cold!

“Your uncle won’t allow it!”

“Cedric, I’m asking about your mother. Why bring up my uncle?”

Her tone was sharp and direct.

Regardless of what Rebecca had gone through before, and regardless of her being skilled in

maneuvering within the Johnson family, Rebecca had handled Natalie’s case poorly.

Is that something a decent person would do?”

Natalie emphasized the last sentence heavily. The man across from her, whose expression was

already

unpleasant, became even more dark and overcast at this moment.

“Natalie!”

“Marriage has always been a matter between the two of us!”

“One is your mother, and the other is your sister. Whether it’s in the past, the present, or the future,

you’ve always avoided facing the issues with these two, and then there’s Isabella!”

*Cedric, I was alone and easy to manipulate in the past. But now, I follow whatever my uncle and my

aunt says. Their intention is clear: they don’t want us to remarry. Do you understand?”

In short, he stood with his mother and Christina, while she stood with her uncle and aunt.

This time, he had taken action against her uncle, which was the last line for her.

This man really thought too simplistically about marriage. Because he thought too simply, she had

suffered quite a bit.

“Nat!

Cedric’s voice was hoarse, and he seemed unsure of what to say for a moment.

It was at this moment that he truly understood what grievances Natalie had suffered in the Johnson

family. It seemed like that was the hurdle in her heart that she couldn’t get over.

“Before, I thought the same as you. I thought that marriage was a matter between the two of us. I

thought That living in Scarlet Villa would solve everything. But…”

It tumed out to be a big mistake,

This statement made her stance even clearer. She wouldn’t consider personal matters. So she would

remain indifferent, no matter what efforts he put into her.

Cedric raised an eyebrow, and a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.

“You should take a look at these things first…”

Saying this, the man placed a bag by Natalie’s side. She hadn’t noticed him bringing it along.

Looking at the document bag made of cowhide, Natalie’s brows furrowed. Even without opening it, she

knew what was inside.

“Besides threatening me, what else can you do?”

Even without opening it, she was sure it contained something he could use to manipulate her.

As she finished speaking, Cedric looked at her with a hint of imperceptible bitterness flickering in his

eyes.

In the next moment, he said, “I don’t know when it started, but we have to deal with each other in this

way..

“Since you no longer like the way it used to be, we have to move forward in some way!”

Move forward?

Hah! In the face of so many problems, this man still had the nerve to talk about moving forward?!

In fact, Natalie had figured it out by now. This man was determined to never let her go.

Even if a lifetime passed… she couldn’t escape his grasp.

Although that ending had yet to come, Natalie was also considering whether a more tragic outcome

awaited her in this life!

Could it be that even if she started over in another life, she still couldn’t escape this man’s control?

Could she not escape even by half?

No she couldn’t!

thought about her previous life. The thought of him, Isabella, everyone from the Johnson family

a bizing fire burn furiously in her heart!

+15 BONUS

Yes. Doing nothing now was enough to torment those people. But she could let it go if she had been

alone in her previous life.

However, there was, unfortunately, a child Involved!

The thought of her child, who she had walted for so long…

In the end, her child perished in the flames along with her.

So, how could she listen to her uncle and do nothing? How could she remain indifferent and continue

as

the CEO of Sylvan Gems? Or even the future heiress of Regal Horizons International?

Regardless of what her future looked like, she could not let go of those who had tom her apart in the

darkness.

She couldn’t forgive them.

“Since you want to pester me, go on and continue doing it!”

Having figured this out, Natalie’s expression turned ice–cold.
