A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

win looked at her with a gentle smile. “I thought you were going to say something else.”

Natalie’s smile turned strained. There was none of the ease it had in the morning.

“Don’t worry, okay?” Irwin reassured her, observing her concerned expression.

Without a doubt, Cedric wouldn’t easily let Natalie off the hook this time. All the evidence, even the

results of his own investigation, pointed towards Natalie.

With their already fragile foundation of trust, the current situation only worsened the lack of it.

Upon hearing this, Natalie didn’t respond.

Instead, she picked up her glass of red wine and took another sip.

How could she feel at ease?

Cedric’s methods were ruthless, and she had no idea about the extent of his connections within Regal

Horizons International.

“Since your uncle is aware of his nature, he’ll definitely be taking precautions, right?” Irwin asked.

“Yes,” Natalie nodded, acknowledging the truth in his words.

However, even though her uncle might be cautious, it didn’t ease her mind!

She had been by Cedric’s side for a decade. She knew that once he set his mind on something, he

would relentlessly pursue it. When he sought her out to settle scores, it caused quite a bit of trouble on

her uncle’s end.

Now, he was convinced that Isabella had lost her sight because of her.

So, he would definitely not let her off the hook.

“Natalie.”

“Hmm?”

“Have you ever considered going abroad?”

This wasn’t the first time Irwin had suggested this. In his view, the chaos in Verde City was distressing

for

“But what about your project?”

wont go awry, Irwin assured her.

He hoped Natalie would leave now and return once things had settled.

Closing her eyes, Natalle recalled Cedric’s furious expression. Finally, she nodded. “Perhaps it’s for the

best

With the approaching New Year, going back to Simeria to spend time with her uncle seemed like the

best way to handle the current public opinion.

Ignoring the situation was the best strategy.

The more attention she paid to it, the more fervent some people would become. Arguing with a group

of fanatics was never a wise choice.

“I’ll arrange things at Sylvan Gems tomorrow and head back to Simeria. Where are you planning to go

during your vacation?”

“I haven’t made any plans yet.”

“How about spending your vacation in Simeria?”

At this moment, Irwin’s projects weren’t holding her back. Natalie was grateful for that.

The first time things went wrong, she wanted to abandon everything in Verde City and leave. However,

she couldn’t because of the studio she had started. She was also worried it might affect Apex Global

and Premier Garden.

“Sure,” Irwin looked at her and said gently.

As Natalie finished the last of her wine, a hint of melancholy flickered in Irwin’s eyes.

“I’m an outsider, so it might be difficult for me to interfere in the matters between you and Cedric. But…

I believe you’ll grant me that privilege, won’t you?” Irwin asked.

Privilege?

Natalie nodded.

This time, she didn’t refuse Irwin.

He spoke with such dominance, and she couldn’t help but feel the need to rely on him.

It turned out she was just a woman.

In her most vulnerable moments, what she needed most was someone to lean on, right?

After dinner, Irwin personally pulled out the chair for Natalle and helped her stand. At the adjacent

table, Leon also stood.

Seeing the two rise, he respectfully followed behind Natalie.

As they reached the entrance of the restaurant, Isaac walked in. When his eyes met Natalie’s, a

coldness flickered in them.

Then, his eyes turned crimson, burning with rage.

“You sure have some nerve, huh? You must have some really good tricks up your sleeves to still

parade around like this!”

Isaac was usually a very cheerful person, and he had never uttered such sarcastic words to anyone.

But looking at Natalie now, he wished he could dissect her with a scalpel to see the true color of her

heart.

Natalie furrowed her brows at Isaac’s words. Just as she was about to say something. Irwin stepped

forward and gently pushed her behind him to shield her.

This action only further infuriated Isaac.

“Hmph, acting differently when someone is protecting you, huh?”

“Mr. Phelps, whether she has the right to parade around is not something you can casually comment

on, don’t you think?” Irwin retorted.

“Irwin, she’s Cedric’s ex–wife. Can the Frazier family’s head really accept your involvement with her?”

Isaac mocked, looking at Irwin.

Natalie’s expression changed slightly.

She took a step forward, but Isaac continued, “No matter how beautiful a person is, she’s still a

divorcee, you know?”

Natalie’s expression darkened!

“Mr. Phelps, I understand your feelings. But standing here today means I’m innocent! Why vent your

anger on me?”

“It’s so easy for you to say that, huh? Natalie, aren’t you just relying on Stephen’s support?” Isaac

sneered.” I want to see if you can still be so high and mighty when your crimes are exposed!”

Natalie was speechless and genuinely angry. She didn’t want to deal with someone like Isaac, who had

However, Isaac blocked her way.

“What? Brave enough to act but not to face the consequences? Can’t take a few words?” Isaac

taunted.

“Didn’t you already report this to the police? Why talk to me about it now? I’d advise you to be more

sensiblel”

Natalie was not one to be trifled with. She glanced back at Leon.

Leon nodded and stepped forward. As Natalie pulled Irwin away, Isaac attempted to stop them.

However, Leon blocked his way.

“Mr. Phelps, it’s better to keep quiet before you lose your composure. This time, Ms. Walker won’t hold

it against you. But next time…!”

Next t

Next time, what?

Leon didn’t continue, but the implication was clear. Isaac’s face turned slightly red.

Before he could speak, Leon added, “As a doctor, your hands are precious, right?”

“Are you threatening me? Hah! That’s just exactly what that woman would do, huh?” Isaac retorted.

“No, it’s advice. Since you make a living with your hands, your mind should be clearer,” Leon calmly

replied.

Isaac was angered by these words.

Wasn’t the investigation he personally conducted trustworthy?!

He couldn’t help but acknowledge that the woman had cunning methods. Those around her trusted her

so much!

He wanted to see her true face when the mask of malice was removed!

In the car, Natalie looked at Irwih apologetically.

“Sorry, didn’t expect to run into him.”

“His mood is understandable.”

Yes, but on your side….

Before Natalie could finish her sentence, Irwin reached over and petted her head, clearly signaling her

not to continue.

Natalie swallowed the rest of her words.

Isaac had lost the woman he loved. No matter who stood in his shoes, it was difficult to accept.

However, he vented all his resentment on her, which irked her!

Just then, her phone vibrated. It was a call from Zane.

Natalie answered, “Zane?”

“We’ve found information about that card!”
