A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 235 A Strange Birthday Party

Cedric took a sip of water before turning his cold and piercing gaze on Lucas.

“Do you know what to do?”

“Yes, sir.”

Lucas understood once he heard Cedric’s tone. He turned and left, leaving Cedric alone in the study.

Cedric looked blankly at the wall for a while.

Stephen… was completely ignoring Natalie?

His inaction seemed anything but simple.

“Natalie…” he murmured softly.

At this moment, Cedric also realized that Natalie had changed completely since divorcing him, even in

personality.

But whether she confessed or not, she had to stay inside now!

Time passed swiftly, and it was soon time for Christina’s birthday banquet. During this period, some felt

like time was dragging on, while others felt like they were living in a dream.

This applied to Christina, Isabella… and Natalie!

Although somewhat disappointed in Christina, Rebecca ensured her birthday banquet would be

extravagant.

Inside her room, Christina was dressed like a delicate doll as Wanda attended to her. Wanda’s eyes

were

filled with indulgence as she looked at Christina.

“Miss, Master Cedric is here.”

There was a hint of gravity in Wanda’s tone when she spoke.

Christina turned around and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

Seeing Wanda’s unusual expression, Christina reached out and took Wanda’s hand. For some reason,

she

could smell a very familiar scent on Wanda.

Wanda touched her hair and said, “Ms. Morgan is also here.”

Christina’s expression stiffened for a moment at the mention of Isabella.

Then, she paled.

Memories flashed in her mind. Back at Scarlet Villa, when Isabella manipulated her…

It was the first time Cedric protected someone else.

Isabella did have some tricks up her sleeves!

“How dare she!”

When Isabella was mentioned, Christina’s initial good mood was completely gone. For years, her

birthday

had been celebrated with her grandmother, mother, and brother,

When Natalie appeared, she always felt uncomfortable.

Now that she had finally driven Natalie away, Isabella showed up!

More importantly, Isabella dared to manipulate even her!

“Miss.”

“I don’t want to see her!” Christina said petulantly..

Christina was upset just thinking about that woman.

Isabella had deceived her so miserably and also took Cedric away from her.

How could she not be upset?

Seeing Christina’s stubborn attitude, Wanda comforted her, “It’s your birthday banquet. Don’t

embarrass yourself because of her,”

“Wanda.”

“Right now, she is important to Master Cedric.”

Wanda spoke directly, preparing Christina mentally. After all, if Wanda hadn’t told her now, Christinal

would likely have caused a scene when she saw Isabella at the banquet.

Isabella was much more formidable than Natalie, and now Cedric was somewhat protective of her.

Christina’s tantrums wouldn’t do any good for her.

“Hmph, that bitch!”

Christina was furious. She knew very well that Isabella was important to And because of

this importance, Christina wished she could tear her to pieces!

A sinister look flashed in her eyes.

So what?

Christina had managed to drive even Natalie away.

What could a blind woman like Isabella do?

Christina was very upset, and Wanda had to comfort her for quite a while. When they went downstairs.

Christina’s heart was in chaos when she saw Cedric keep Isabella by his side.

“Mom,”

Coming to Rebecca’s side, she affectionately took Rebecca’s arm.

Rebecca’s expression finally eased a bit after seeing Christina. Today’s birthday banquet was probably

the

most displeasing event for Rebecca in these years, even more so than when Natalie was around.

Her son showed up with this blind woman, and all the guests were aristocrats from wealthy families.

When they looked at her, those noble ladies‘ eyes were filled with hidden mockery.

“You’re the star today. Go and greet the guests properly, okay?

“Of course!”

Christina let go of Rebecca’s arm and went to greet everyone. Then, seemingly nonchalantly, she

walked

toward Cedric and Isabella.

Cedric was chatting with an elder. Even so, he was holding onto Isabella.

The protective gesture made Christina insanely jealous.

“You’ve always had good taste; it’s just a pity for this young lady,” an elderly uncle said to Cedric.

The way he looked at Isabella carried a hint of pity.

However, due to the previous conflicts between Natalie and Isabella, most people’s gazes towards.

Isabella were not friendly.

This brought some comfort to Christina.

When Cedric heard the words ‘pity, he patted Isabella’s hand gently.

Isabella said, “I’m fine.”

“Are you tired?” Cedric asked with concern.

“No. I’m fine,” Isabella replied.

The two made a harmonious image, standing together. Except for Isabella’s eyes, she looked beautiful

from any angle.

Christina approached with a warm and gracious smile,

“Ced.”

Christina was a bit nervous when she approached then, especially considering what happened at

Scarlet Villa. She hadn’t seen Cedric since then.

Fortunately, on her birthday, Cedric didn’t show any displeasure.

“Yeah,” he replied casually.

Christina didn’t mind his indifferent reaction and boldly approached, linking arms with Isabella.

“Bella, you’re finally here.

Their intimate appearance made it hard for anyone to detect their previous discord.

Upon seeing the broken necklace in Isabella’s hand, Christina exclaimed, “This necklace is broken?!”

“Yeah, I accidentally broke it just now.”

Isabella didn’t say she had accidentally broken the necklace on Cedric’s suit button just now.

Acting unusually generous, Christina said, “Ced, let me take Isabella to my room to pick a new one.”

Upon hearing this, Isabella subconsciously tightened her grip on Cedric’s arm. She naturally knew that

Christina Inviting her alone was definitely not a good sign.

There were many people today, and she didn’t want to put herself in a disadvantageous position.

So, she had made up her mind not to be alone with Christina before she came. And because of the

Incident at Scarlet Villa, Cedric was naturally not at ease with Christina taking Isabella away.

“No need for that,” Cedric spoke before Isabella could. He glanced at Isabella and said, “This is fine.”

“It doesn’t quite match!” Christina said, looking at Isabella’s neck.

She smiled, ‘Isabella’s neck is fair and long. It would look even better with a necklace. How about you

+15 BONUS

Seeing Christina speak like this, Cedric subconsciously looked at Isabella’s neck. He had to admit that

with Isabella’s deep V–neck dress today, she did need a necklace,

“Sure. Wait for me here,” Cedric said to Isabella.

With so many people around, Cedric was sure Christina wouldn’t dare to do anything suspicious. It was

clear that Isabella thought the same.

Everything was fine as long as they weren’t alone, especially since Lucas was still here.

Cedric left, and Christina’s grip on Isabel a’s arm tightened.

To onlookers who were near them, they seemed like very good friends.

However, Christina’s lowered voice carried a hint of malice when she spoke.

“Do you think that I can’t do anything just because you’re avoiding me?”
