A DIVORCE AFTER MY REBIRTH - Season 2 Episode 93

After Cedric left, Natalie tried to suppress the impulse in her chest. But ultimately, she failed.

She picked up her phone and called Stephen.

Cedric’s parting words undoubtedly reminded her that he wouldn’t let things go easily.

As Irwin had said… She wasn’t alone.

Cedric was manipulating her now, confident that she wouldn’t dare to say anything to her uncle. But

Natalie felt a strong unwillingness to just let his threat go unanswered.

“Nat.”

“How’s everything going?” Natalie asked.

Cedric’s stunt had caused Stephen a lot of trouble. When Natalie thought about it, she wished she

could

tear Cedric to pieces.

“Don’t worry; everything has been taken care of.”

“Uncle!”

“Hmm?”

“Is there any trouble within Regal Horizons?” Natalie asked, thinking of potential issues similar to the

Sylvan Gems incident from before.

She hadn’t caused those problems, but in her current position, everything was her responsibility. Even

the aftermath of the last shake–up had given her a headache.

“What kind of problems would there be? That’s all you ever ask when you call.” Stephen’s tone became

serious.

Then, it became even more serious, “What do you mean by asking that all the time?”

After all, he was the chairman of a’major corporation. When Natalie suddenly asked such a question,

Stephen naturally thought there might be something more to the situation.

Natalie closed her eyes to conceal her irritation. After some contemplation, she circled around the topic

and finally said, “Cedric is behind all this.”

The air fell silent. Even through the phone, Natalie could sense how Stephen’s breathing turned

ragged.

You already knew early on, didn’t you?” Stephen asked after a moment, breaking the silence

Yes.

“You foolish girl! What were you planning to do? Why didn’t you say earlier?”

Stephen was angry.

During this time, he had been puzzled by the internal issues within Regal Horizons International. How

had these internal problems leaked out?

Was there someone intentionally causing trouble?

“Sorry, I…”

“Is he threatening you?”

“Uncle.”

“Natalie, have I taken cared of you for nothing? Don’t you believe in me?”

1. 1.

“Enough, I’ll handle this!”

Stephen was upset.

Who was Natalie?

She was his future successor! Although he intended to toughen her up, he absolutely wouldn’t allow

anyone to threaten her under his wing.

He would be the one to provide her with all the experience and hurdles she needed, not some outsider!

Undoubtedly, Stephen treated Cedric as an outsider!

“Oh, okay.”

After being scolded by Stephen, Natalie was as timid as a mouse.

“Has Irv gone back?”

“Yeah.”

Was Irv coming to Simeria also his doing?” Stephen quickly figured out this aspect of the situation.

Men. Hah!

Yeah Natalie confirmed.

This time, Stephen was truly furious

He sneered, “Impressive! He restricted me from entering the city and you from leaving. He even

managed to chase Irv out, huh? What did he do to you?”

What did he do?

Thinking about what Cedric had done to her during this period, Natalie felt a surge of discomfort in her

chest.

e still too n

“You’re

naive. Well, I can’t blame you. He never let you experience the real world before.”

Stephen didn’t think too deeply about it. He only felt that Cedric had used this method to keep Natalie

by

his side.

It was simply shameless!

“Uncle, this is what I plan to do…

Natalie didn’t want to say much to Stephen, but she felt it necessary to inform him of what she intended

to do next.

However, Stephen was a wise person.

Even before she said anything, Stephen probably already knew what she was going to say.

He interrupted, “Alright, enough. Say whatever you want. Now that the issue with Sylvan Gems has

been resolved, do whatever you want!”

“But don’t let it affect your work, understood?”

“Of course!” Natalie breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought Stephen would want her to focus solely on the company and not on what Christina and

Isabella were doing.

Stephen had also been young once. Naturally, he knew that Natalie wouldn’t be able to swallow her

grievances at this stage.

So, he let her be!

It’s almost New Year’s; will you come back with Irv?”

Natalie closed her eyes.

Actually, regarding Irwin

Uncle, Irwin and I…”

Take it slowly. I know it’s not easy for you to get over it, but he treats you well. He’s a good man, Trust

your uncle’s judgment, alright?”

The words were at the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them back.

Ever since she had an uncle, she had become especially afraid of seeing the concerned look in the

eyes

of her elders.

During the time in Simeria, Stephen had looked at her like that. Every time she thought of that look,

there was a bitter feeling in her chest.

Natalie hung up, and her world quieted down.

Just like this…!

All her previous worries were completely shattered by Cedric’s last words today. Cedric’s current

actions.

undoubtedly intended to force her to stay by his side.

He couldn’t let go of the ten years of feelings!

But in Natalie’s view, he was holding onto those ten years too tightly.

And things between them were…!

If there had been hope with things between them, her heart would have wavered in the days when

Irwin

had been absent.

But every time she interacted with Cedric, all she could think about was his ferocity in her past life. She

recalled how he had someone remove her eyes on the operating table and the pain of being burned by

the fire….

Those were the barriers in her heart that she could never overcome.

She called in Zane through the intercom.

“Come in, please!”

Zane quickly entered. “You called for me?”

“How’s the progress of handling the aftermath issues?-Natalie asked straightforwardly.

Given Stephen’s temperament, Natalie knew there would be a storm coming soon since she had

informed him of everything.

+15

At this critical moment, she had to handle the issues on the Sylvan Gems side well so that Cedric

wouldn’t have any leverage.

Zane nodded. “Rest assured, everything has been handled.”

“Good.” Natalie nodded.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

So long as it was handled, it was good.

Everything would be fine.

Now that Natalie had handed the matter of Cedric over to Stephen, she needed to focus on Christina

and

Isabella.

This… was the official start of it.

After Zane left, Natalie picked up the phone and dialed a number. It was the private investigator she

had hired, and he quickly answered.

“Yes, Ms. Walker?”

“How’s the investigation going?”

She was asking about the remaining kidnapper she had asked him to look into.
