A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 413 Why Are You So Worried About Him?

Natalie had always been a decisive person. Her ability to manage Regal Horizons International spoke

volumes about her capabilities.

But Cedric’s actions were beyond comprehension!

She had once lived freely in Simeria.

But who would have thought that Cedric…?

Caleb didn’t know all the details, so he couldn’t fathom how Cedric could ask Natalie to accept

Isabella’s daughter.

Had Cedric truly lost his mind?

That was Isabella’s child!

Everyone knew about the events in Verde City. Natalie couldn’t even forgive Cedric. How could she

ever accept Isabella’s child?

“Caleb, return to Verde City. I’m begging you!” Natalie’s voice was filled with suppressed

anger.

Caleb replied, “Don’t worry about me. I know what I need to do.”

“Caleb, I can’t bear to see you involved in this matter. Do you understand?”

“Let’s leave it at that!” Without waiting for Natalie to speak further, Caleb hung up.

Natalie exhaled deeply, suppressing the heaviness in her chest. As she turned, her phone slipped from

her grasp. It hit the ground with a thud, echoing the weight in her heart.

Suddenly, Cedric appeared at the doorway, his face dark and intimidating.

“Were you talking to Caleb?” he asked, his voice dripping with menace as he approached.

Instinctively, Natalie retreated, but Cedric closed in, cornering her. She looked into his cold. eyes,

feeling the pressure of his presence.

With a grip as cold as his demeanor, he held her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze.

“Do you only have eyes for him now?” he whispered menacingly.

“Let go… Ugh!”

Before she could finish, Cedric twisted her chin, causing her intense pain. Without waiting for her

reaction, he released her and said, “Considering you had his child, it’s no surprise.”

Cedric had heard Natalie’s conversation with Caleb just now. She was so worried that Cedric would

hurt Caleb…

Wasn’t that laughable?

In the past, she…

She had never displayed such concern for Cedric before. He could feel her emotions from where he

stood at the door. It was as if her heart was bleeding in worry for Caleb.

Natalie tried to speak, but ultimately decided not to say anything. She couldn’t provoke Cedric further,

especially regarding Caleb.

“Why so silent?” Cedric’s anger intensified as he watched her remain mute..

“What do you want me to say?”

‘Since you’re asking him to leave, get him to take the child with him!”

Natalie was silent.

The air grew thick with tension, a palpable silence enveloping them both.

Their eyes locked, and an intangible weight filled the space. It grew colder and more oppressive by the

moment.

The moment the words left Cedric’s lips, regret washed over him.

What had he been thinking?

He only wanted Caleb gone. But if

Back then, he already knew.

He had watched her consume medicine after medicine. Despite her aversion to its bitter taste, she had

persisted. Her brows had furrowed in discomfort each time.

He had wanted to stop her, to tell her he didn’t need a child if it meant risking herself.

As long as he had her…!

But she had been resolute.

Yet, the harsh reality of the child’s arrival had been cruel.

“After all that struggle to conceive, I learned this cruelty from Isabella herself. Cedric, it seems you

haven’t changed one bit from our past life,” Natalie said, her voice laden with bitterness and

accusation.

If outsiders were to discover that he had gone to such lengths across lifetimes just to be with her, they’d

surely believe his love ran deep.

Little did they know…!

The truth was, he believed he had done something touching. But he was unaware that he remained

unchanged deep down and was just nursing a lingering sense of resentment.

“Nat.”

Witnessing the icy chill in Natalie’s eyes and hearing her words, Cedric felt genuinely panicked.

She couldn’t have…!

Natalie stared intently at him and spoke slowly. Two years ago, I was pregnant with your child when

you tried to send me to prison! It was exactly the same in our past life! When the scorching heat

approached me, I tried to break free from those iron bars like a madwoman!”

“But in the end…”

Natalie trailed off, her gaze upon Cedric growing even more distant and cold.

Cedric felt a suffocating pain in his chest as he heard her recount these memories, struggling

to find words:

“Unlike our past life,” she continued, “this time, I saw it all clearly but still couldn’t escape the engulfing

flames.”

“Nat.”

“It hurt so much. My hands… were like this, you know?” Natalie said, wrapping her hands. protectively

around her stomach, echoing her actions from both lifetimes.

In her last life, she had done it to shield the child she had fought so hard to conceive!

In this life, she had initially rejected the idea of having a child. But when the flames threatened to engulf

her, instinct drove her to protect her unborn child.

“Stop,” Cedric choked out, feeling an increasing tightness and pain in his chest.

Natalie had always avoided discussing their past life in detail. Every mention was brief, a mere whisper.

Yet now, Cedric wished more than anything that she hadn’t reincarnated so that she would be spared

going through this torment again.
