A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 410 A Daughter’s Deception

Natalie wouldn’t allow it!

The Cedric of the past had free reign in her world, all because of Natalie’s love for him.

But now, it was different

He had no right to demand anything from her.

Secrets, especially ones that people wanted to hide deeply, were extremely dangerous once someone

discovered them.

Cedric’s threats were one thing, but who knew how he might leverage Clyde’s secret against her in the

future?

The only way to eliminate this threat… was to bring Cedric down… and destroy him.

For a week straight, Natalie hardly left Luna’s side.

Every moment was precious to her, even though she knew this separation was a one–time event. After

this, Natalie vowed she and Luna would never be apart again.

“Little moon, come on, open up!”

At their last dinner together, Natalie tenderly fed Luna, who looked utterly adorable as she opened her

tiny mouth.

The warmth in Natalie’s smile deepened as she watched Luna.

“Nat, are you sure about this?” Heather looked at Natalie with concern. It was obvious she didn’t agree

with Natalie’s intentions.

Three days ago, Natalie had announced her intention to stay at Peach Garden, claiming she wanted to

give Cedric another chance.

This decision baffled Heather, who couldn’t understand why Natalie would consider it.

“Mom, if there’s a chance for a complete family, I want to try it… for Luna’s sake,” Natalie replied, not

revealing her true feelings about Cedric to Stephen and Heather.

Things between Cedric and her were impossible from the start.

Why would she give him another chance?

Clyde’s brow furrowed, his gaze piercing Natalie with a chilling intensity.

But what if he-

“Mom, people change. I need to see if he truly has, right?” Natalie interrupted.

Even as she spoke, she found her words somewhat ironic.

Yes, Cedric had changed.

His fixation used to be Isabella, but now it had changed to Kayla!

Heather sighed in frustration, her eyes filled with worry. “What about Luna?”

“Until I’m certain he’s genuinely changed, Luna stays here.”

Bringing Luna with her? That was impossible.

Cedric didn’t deserve to be her father.

Heather sighed again, lost for words, overwhelmed by her concern for Natalie.

“It’ll be fine, Mom! I know my limits!” Natalie reassured her.

“I know you do.”

Natalie had always known her limits, but now with Cedric….

Did she really know her limits?

Heather couldn’t shake the memories of Cedric’s past actions against Natalie, leaving her deeply

unsettled.

Therefore, when Natalie mentioned wanting to be with him and cited Luna as a reason, Heather

couldn’t accept it. Heather loved her granddaughter dearly and wished for Luna to

have a complete family.

But Cedric?

Just the thought of him was headache–inducing.

The following day, after Natalie helped Luna get up and fed her breakfast meticulously, she prepared to

leave. Clyde was waiting for her.

“I’ll drive you,” he said, opening the car door for her.

Looking at him, Natalie felt a pang of sympathy. Even after returning to the Jarvis family, there was a

loneliness he couldn’t hide despite spending so much time back with them.

Once inside the car, they drove in silence towards Peach Garden.

Midway, Clyde broke the silence. “Stay out of the Wexford mess!”

Natalie shivered at his words, looking at Clyde. At that moment, even his profile seemed enigmatic.

“Bro.”

“Wexford is not as simple as you think. Trying to destroy him using the chaos of Wexford won’t be that

easy!”

What kind of place was Wexford?

Just as Clyde said, it was chaotic. Over the years, many have been implicated because of that chaos,

leading to their downfall.

However, the backing behind Cedric seemed enduringly strong, no matter the chaos or how many

changes occurred.

Everything behind him appeared unshakeable!

And their successors, generation after generation, have always been carefully chosen to maintain this

long–term success.

The moment Natalie considered using this chaos to bring down Cedric, she was already entangled in

countless complexities.

“Cly, do you know how many of my boundaries he’s crossed?” At this moment, Natalie’s tone

was grave.

How many times had he crossed that line? How many times had he pushed her to her limits?

He had done it over and over again…!

He seemed to believe she was someone who never felt hurt while he repeatedly broke her

heart.

This time, he ventured into territories that Natalie herself would never dare to breach.

“It’s not just for you, but… for my past self,” Natalie added, her voice heavy and solemn.

Such a tone caused Clyde to frown deeply, and worry flashed in his eyes.

That was right.

Time and again, Cedric had pushed her to the brink.

“Do you know why I haven’t retaliated against him these past two years?” Natalie questioned before

Clyde could respond.

At that moment, Clyde recalled the investigations into Natalie’s history.

Ever since she returned to the Jarvis family in Simeria, she never sought vengeance against Cedric,

despite their intricate past with the Johnson family.

But why?

“Because I wanted nothing to do with my past,” Her voice, unusually calm, held a weighty

resolve.

Yes, she wanted to sever ties with Cedric for good

But what had happened?

Isabella had died!

Now, with Isabella’s daughter emerging, Cedric continuously pressured Natalie on behalf of the child.

He even went to the extent of using Clyde’s most disgraceful past against her to force her into

accepting the child.

What kind of role did Isabella play in her world?

It was impossible for Cedric not to know!

In that case, how could she possibly accept that child?

If he insisted on pursuing her relentlessly to the extent of destructiveness, she would grant

him his wish…

She would give him his complete downfall.

“I understand now,” Clyde suddenly realized, seeing through Natalie’s intentions.

Cedric’s every move was to compel Natalie back into his life and to accept Isabella’s child.

But if reconciliation were an option, Natalie would have done it long ago. Clearly, their burdensome

past wouldn’t allow it.

If Cedric wanted to be with Natalie again, then she hoped he would be able to accept everything that

happened after this!

Once, Cedric had methodically driven her into a corner. Now, she was ready to retaliate using the very

same tactics against him.

Natalie was prepared to give him just that!
