A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 32 Getting Physical for Isabella

A fiery pain spread across her face, and the narrow space fell completely silent at that moment.

Cedric was stiff as he looked at Natalie, whose head was turned to the side. Then, he slowly looked at his

own hand as his eyes widened.

Both of them were breathing heavily.

Finally, Natalie turned to look at Cedric, When she met his eyes, she smiled.

It was a mocking smile, one that was cold and biting!

“Hah! You hit me. Why? For that woman’s sake?” She almost couldn’t hear her own voice. It was an

instinctual question.

Cedric had hit her.

He had hit her for another woman.

If Natalie had only felt disappointment towards him earlier, she was now completely heartbroken by this

man.

People say that letting go was just a thought away. So, heartbreak must also happen in an instant.

At this moment, her feelings for Cedric… were completely dead.

Cedric also finally came to his senses. He looked at her, his small face covered in red marks. He

extended shaky hands toward her. Even his voice shook.

“Nat.”

“Don’t touch me!”

Natalie pushed his hand away. She attempted to open the car door, but it was locked.

She glared at him fiercely and sald coldly, “Open it!”

‘Listen to me.”

“What is there to say?” Natalie roared.

At this moment, she had lost all her rationality. The petite woman turned to look at the man before her

like an angry little beast.

There’s nothing left to say between us.”

Cedric remained silent.

“Where’s your dignity as a member of the Johnson family? You should at least try to retain it. If you have

any future business, talk to my lawyer. If you think I’ve caused her such suffering, then go to the police.

What, you can’t even do that? Do you need my help doing that?”

As she spoke, Natalie pulled out her phone to dial the emergency number.

When he saw the numbers on her screen, Cedric instinctively snatched the phone from her hand and

quickly hung up before the other side could answer.

“Are you crazy?!” He began shouting as well.

She had gone mad! Truly and utterly mad!

Natalie looked at the furious man. Her tone was furious and mocking as she said, “Why are you afraid? I’m not even afraid!”

Indeed, what was he afraid of?

When they found that evidence, his first thought wasn’t to turn it over to the police, but to use it to threaten her into not divorcing him.

No matter when it was, his first reaction was not to allow Natalie to divorce him.

And Natalie?

In the face of that evidence, she seemed to have never been afraid!

‘Is it because of that man?”

After a long pause, Cedric finally spoke. Countless thoughts raced through his mind. The only reason that could convince him that Natalie wasn’t afraid was because of the man abroad. She had been away from Verde City for several months, and they couldn’t track her whereabouts.

There was no need to think.

That must be the reason!

And now, in the face of hard facts and evidence, she showed no fear, simply because someone was backing her up.

Natalie hadn’t expected Cedric to bring up her uncle at this moment,

Tres I have someone protecting me. Are you done with the questions?”

She didn’t care!

Seeing Cedric’s anger climbing higher, Natalie continued, “When I received those things back at Scarlet Villa, he was the one protecting me!”

“When public opinion was trying to tear me apart, he protected me! When that evidence was presented, he told me not to be afraid! He’s the one protecting me. You got a problem with it?” 1

The more Natalie spoke, the more it provoked Cedric’s fury, especially the words at the end.

When she was still living at Scarlet Villa, Natalie didn’t even know that Stephen was her uncle.

She lied, and Cedric believed her!

Suddenly, there was pressure on her shoulder.

Cedric couldn’t help but reach out and grip her shoulders harshly. His fingers dug painfully into her flesh

as he pressed down in rage.

The pressure was intense!

“Ugh…” Natalie groaned in pain.

“Natalie, you really want to die, huh?!”

Cedric was furious.

He was utterly enraged.

Since they had been together, Natalie had always lived under his protection. To put it bluntly, she depended on him for her life.

However, the woman he had protected for so many years was now shouting about how another man had protected her from every little thing that happened!

Did she think so little of Cedric?!

“Didn’t I tell you that the men of the Johnson family don’t divorce? That they only become widowers?” Cedric said, his lone icy.

leaned closer to her ear while looking at the silent Natalie,

tone was extremely dangerous!

Natalie smirked through her pain and replied, “Didn’t I also tell you before? Either you become the first one, or you can go to hell! I’m treating you as if you’re already dead!”

Cedric was speechless at her response!

In the cramped space, the atmosphere grew heavier and suffocating.

“Is that so? Why don’t you have a feel whether I’m dead or not, then?”

“Get off me!”

When Cedric’s hand pulled at her robe, Natalie was about to slap him. But the man was prepared and

grabbed her wrist tightly, restraining her!

He had always been gentle with her, but now he suddenly turned ruthless and domineering. Natalie ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

couldn’t resist him at all. Disgust flashed in her eyes.

“How dare you!”

“Don’t forget, you’re still my wife.”

“Oh, so you still remember that I’m your wife?!”

Yet, how had he treated her lately?

“How unlucky I am to have such a husband like you! That I need other men to protect me in the most difficult times!”

This

tement was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire.

Cedric was already furious, and now he was even angrier, wanting to tear Natalie apart.

Neither of them was willing to give in!

There were always two sides to a story.

At the hospital, Isabella had already removed the bandage covering her eyes. Christina was not pleased when she heard that Jocelyn was returning, and now, seeing Isabella in this state, her mood worsened.

You should be more carefull Don’t get caught.

told you, I’ve taken care of the hospital staff.

ken care of them, there can still be oversights.

The plan had been carefully calculated up to this point, especially the fact that Natalie and Cedric were currently at odds. Cedric, having grown up pampered in the Johnson family, would run out of patience

sooner or later.

When that happened, he and Natalie would naturally part ways.

So, Christina absolutely couldn’t afford any mistakes at this crucial moment!

Isabella looked at Christina with a displeased expression. “I know what to do. Don’t forget, we’re in this

together.

She was not Christina’s employer, and her words served as a reminder to Christina.

After a brief pause, Christina’s tone changed when she looked at Isabella. “You’re right, we’re in this

together. But you shouldn’t be thinking of things you shouldn’t be.”

Isabella didn’t say anything. Now was not the time for her and Christina to argue.

“How are they doing now?”

Isabelle was stuck in the hospital, so she didn’t clearly understand Cedric’s situation. She only saw the recent developments with Natalie in the news.

Even from those reports, she could tell that things between them were not going well. She was surprised that they hadn’t separated even at this stage.

“They’ve been having quite a serious argument for the past couple of days,” Christina said.
