A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 142 Beaten Up

“With this, do you think I should still forgive her?”

Every word from Isabella sounded heartbroken.

Cedric closed his eyes, and they were even colder when he opened them again.

“I want to sue her!” Isabella said determinedly.

Isabella was alone, and her mother had already been humiliated; she didn’t need to deliberately please

anyone anymore!

Seizing this opportunity, she wanted to make her stance clear about Natalie and no longer hide her

feelings in front of Cedric.

When Isabella declared her intention to sue Natalie, Cedric narrowed his eyes. He glanced at the

disheveled and pitiful Isabella, a hint of compassion flickering in his eyes.

He took a deep breath.

“I will handle this matter.” Cedric finally said.

“I no longer need her apology. I’m sorry, Cedric, this time…. I’m afraid I can’t consider your feelings on

this

anymore!TM

Isabella’s tone was gentle but firm. She made it clear that she had been considering Cedric’s position

before, but Natalie insulting her mother was the last line.

This time, she wouldn’t compromise.

Undoubtedly, she was forcing Cedric with this approach.

She wouldn’t sue Natalie herself. She didn’t know what Natalie held in her hands that she acted so

arrogantly. With that thought in mind, Isabella dared not confront her directly.

But on Cedric’s side…

As long as he put his mind to it, he could make Natalie’s life miserable

Cedric closed his eyes. “What do you want?

already suffered so much because of her. Does my mother also need to bear her slander as well?”

Isabels emphasized the word “mother.

Cedric nodded. “Alright. I understand”

After Cedric left, Isabella was alone in the ward.

She smirked and muttered, “Natalie, this is your own doing!”

Since Natalie wanted to make Isabella suffer in purgatory, Natalie couldn’t have a good life either!

When Natalie emerged from the meeting, she felt a bit anxious.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Walker. All the design drafts will be ready by tomorrow!”

“Yeah, I know.” Natalie nodded.

How could she not be anxious?

The company had invested heavily in promoting the new products, and the schedule was already set.

If the customization couldn’t be finalized, everything….

Earlier, the designs she had chosen with her own eyes were deemed unacceptable by Zane.

She had only been in this industry for a relatively short time and had been relying on her intuition. That

was the reason Stephen had sent Zane.

So, she would listen to some of Zane’s advice. Since he had said those two drafts weren’t good without

hesitation, then they weren’t!

Just then, her phone buzzed. Natalie checked to see that it was Irwin calling.

She answered, “Hello.”

“I’m going to the eastern suburbs tomorrow. Will you come along?”

The eastern suburbs?

The work at her studio!

Now, Netalle was a bit overwhelmed. She finally understood that human energy is limited. After she got

Involved with Sylvan Gems‘ matters, she rarely paid attention to the studio.

“Wait a moment. She said to Irwin as she picked up her schedule to check. “Can we do it tomorrow

morning?

+15 BONUS

“Sure.”

“Okay.”

“Also…” Just as Natalie was about to hang up, the man on the other end interrupted her.

“What is it?”

“I’ll pick you up in a while.”

“Okay.” Natalie agreed.

Thinking about her date with Irwin tonight, she felt a bit strange. She had never thought about dating

another man while she was with Cedric.

But now, this…!

The afternoon was busy.

After two consecutive meetings, Natalie looked at the time. It was almost time to go, so she left the

meeting room.

An employee stopped her as she was about to leave.

“Ms. Walker, Mr. Johnson is waiting for you in the guest room.”

Cedric?

Surprise flashed across her face. Natalie understood that Cedric would come looking for her, but she

didn’t expect him to be so quick,

However, she didn’t care.

Looking at the time on her wristwatch, she noted that Irwin wouldn’t arrive for a while.

“Let’s go!”

With that, she strode towards the guest room. The glass door opened, and a pungent smell of smoke

hit her:

Natalie frowned.

The man heard the movement and looked at her. When he saw her, his eyebrows were furrowed.

You’re quite busy now.

+15 BONUS

He had waited here for two hours after arriving, even attempting to find her in the meeting room

midway. But each time, he was intercepted by the assistant.

The work environment here was rigorous, and everyone was serious, indicating strict management.

“If you know I’m busy, just get to the point!” Natalie said as she glanced at her wristwatch.

Looking at how arrogant she was behaving, Cedric’s originally anxious heart instantly transformed into

a

raging fire.

“Natalie!”

“It seems whatever your reason for being here isn’t that important, hmm?” Natalie dismissed his gritted

teeth with disdain and turned towards her office.

In the past, whenever she came to see him in the company and he was busy, he would solemnly say to

her, I’m busy. Whatever it is, spit it out!

Now, when it was his turn, he couldn’t even do it!

So what did the demanding requirements he had for her before amounted to now?

*Stop!

Just as she took a couple of steps, the man behind her called her.

Natalie stood still, not turning around. The demeanor from her back created a sense of distance,

making

it impossible to get close, even though Cedric was now right behind her.

“Do you need something else?” Natalie frowned, feeling the man’s icy glare.

Actually, there was no need to ask.

She probably knew why Cedric had come.

After all, Isabella was constantly thinking about how to scheme against her.

So, Natalie didn’t care much today.

Although she lost all her relatives at a young age. Natalie wasn’t an uncultured person. She wouldn’t

randomly pour salt into people’s wounds.

“Natalie, do you know you’re acting like some demon now? Cedric spoke in a doubtful tone.

A sharp light flashed in Natalie’s eyes.

+15 BONUS

“You knew it long ago, didn’t you?

She was referring to the matter with Isabella’s mother.

…Know what?”

“The relationship between Isabella and me!”

“What relationship do you have?”

Natalie was speechless.

Her mind was blank..

What? Was Cedric here to question her without knowing the relationship between her and Isabella?!

Cedric recalled the recording he had heard in the hospital room, trying to remember its contents.

At that time, all he had heard were Natalie’s insults towards Isabella’s mother, and he hadn’t paid much

attention to their relationship.

Now, thinking back, a chill ran down his spine.

“Y–your relationship with her…?”

Cedric’s lips trembled, and he couldn’t finish his sentence.

Natalie and Isabella…
