A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 245 Like a Wandering Corpse

Upon hearing this, Lucas was momentarily stunned.

Dismiss Yuvan?

That was a little expected, considering Yuvan had been close to Isabella.

To say that Natalie’s matters weren’t entirely related to Isabella… was impossible.

It was also unlikely that Isabella was utterly uninvolved in everything Christina had done.

Cedric’s intentions for sparing Isabella while dealing harshly with Christina remained unclear.

Isabella had only moved out of Scarlet Villa, and Cedric hadn’t taken any action against her.

Was it due to insufficient evidence, or were there other reasons?

Even Lucas, who was closest to Cedric, didn’t understand.

“Mr. Johnson, where are you going?”

In Lucas’s contemplation, Cedric had gotten up and casually grabbed his coat before heading towards

the exit.

Cedric stopped at the doorway without turning around. There was an endless sense of melancholy.

around him. Even from a distance, Lucas could feel the heaviness in Cedric’s heart.

Closing his eyes, Cedric took a deep breath and said, “Don’t stop Natalie’s or Irwin’s people.”

Zane, whom Natalie had asked to do a handwriting analysis, and Irwin’s people who were looking into

the

eastern suburbs…

In short, Cedric was ordering the withdrawal of all personnel that had been dispatched when he asked.

Lucas to obstruct everything!

Lucas was shocked, and he looked at Cedric with disbelief.

“Sir…”

Did Cedric know exactly what he was saying?!

If Natalie’s or Irwin’s people found something, they would turn Radiant Tower upside down!

Even Cedric himself might pay the price for it. Didn’t he care about that?!

However, Lucas sensed the desolation in Cedric’s departing figure and instantly understood.

Cedric had lost everything.

He had wrongly accused Natalie and even destroyed her with his own hands, leaving her to reside in

hell.

together butt

He had felt so deeply about their ten years together, but those memories now pained him like nothing.

before.

And now, there was a deep regret.

Cedric didn’t want to do anything anymore.

When Natalie was still alive, she had been looking for evidence related to the eastern suburbs and

Sylvan Gems,

At that time, Cedric wanted to throw her into prison. She wanted to find evidence to counterattack,

leaving it to the final showdown to determine who would be defeated and sent inside.

In the end, she lost and was taken into custody.

And now, Cedric had lost as well.

He indifferently awaited the punishment that belonged to hirm, no longer making any resistance.

One day later, the sky was filled with dark clouds and distant thunder, hinting at an impending storm.

The atmosphere was heavy at Simeria’s Ice City Cemetery, affecting everyone’s hearts.

Soon, large raindrops began to fall, along with muffled thunder.

Kyle stepped forward, holding an umbrella.

“Mr. Johnson, let’s go back,” Kyle said solemnly.

They had used quite a few connections to come here. Soon, Stephen would probably find out about

their

presence.

Yet, Cedric seemed to ignore Kyle’s words. He stared at Natalie’s serene smile on the tombstone’s

picture.

The inscription only had two words: Natalie Walker.

Just those two words.

There was no mention of her being anyone’s wife or daughter. She was buried here alone,

Just as she had come into life, she had also left it cleanly.

Only her name remained behind in this world.

The way she had cleanly cut off her connection to this world left a somewhat bitter feeling in Cedric’s

chest.

There were fresh bouquets in front of the grave, indicating that someone visited her every day after the

funeral.

Cedric tossed aside the flowers, replacing them with his own in the center.

She didn’t like those flowers

She loved lavender

She loved lavender, not chrysanthemums.

Kyle had never seen Cedric this childish before, but he remained silent.

Cedric broke the silence and said, “Kyle.”

“Yes, sir?”

“Prepare to move the grave.”

“W–what?”

Move the grave?

Natalie had just been buried; wouldn’t that be inappropriate?

Would it not disturb her final resting place?

Cedric touched the photo on the tombstone.

The rain and wind fell on his face, the wetness made the raindrops and his tears indistinguishable. It

seemed that only on rainy days like these could a man shed tears freely.

“People say that fallen leaves return to their roots. She’s from Verde City,” Cedric continued.

She grew up there, went to school there, and her home was also in Verde City.

So, why bury her in Simeria?

It was a simple and calm statement, yet it touched even Kyle, usually as unyielding as a stone.

Fallen leaves return to their roots.

+15 BONUS

That was why Cedric specifically came to Ice City Cemetery to bring Natalie back home..

She loved children so much and cherished their Scarlet Villa.

Hence, he wanted to bring her and the child back home.

“Yes, sir.” Kyle swallowed his objections.

Cedric merely wanted to bring his wife and child back home, and there was nothing wrong with that.

He didn’t need to explain anything to anyone.

After all the breakdowns, what remained now was Cedric’s calmness. He carried out everything with

rationality, but everyone around him could see that this calmness was a desperate facade.

It was as if he was fulfilling a mission or doing something final.

What would happen afterward?

No one knew!

When Stephen received word about Cedric’s actions, he rushed to stop him.

The older man regarded Cedric with cold eyes and said, “Why treat her like this? You won’t even leave

her. in peace after her death?!”

Stephen’s tone was particularly cold.

Cedric didn’t look at Stephen. He probably didn’t have the courage to.

He had done so many evil things to Natalie while she had been alive.

It had affected the people around her–Stephen, Irwin, Winona…

He had done more evil deeds than in his previous life.

In his last life, he had hurt only Natalie..

In this life, he didn’t even spare the people around her.

Faced with the sharpness in Stephen’s eyes, Cedric dryly replied, “She was afraid of loneliness.”

“You’re wrong, she wasn’t afraid of loneliness. She was afraid of you!”

Cedric remained silent, the air around him turning colder.

+15 BONUS

When did it start?

When did Natalie begin to fear him?

Indeed, compared to loneliness, he was the most terrifying person in her world.

He ruined her in two lifetimes. He condemned her to the fate of being burned alive each time.

Wasn’t he scarier than loneliness?

Yet, even so, what did it matter?

He still intended to bring her home.

Seeing Cedric’s insistence, Stephen chose not to continue arguing with him. However, he wasn’t so

lenient when it came to the matter involving Winona.

Now that Cedric had stopped interfering with everything in Verde City, things were going smoothly for

Natalie and Irwin’s people.

Stephen believed that soon everything would be revealed!

With all the paperwork completed, the cemetery staff opened Natalie’s grave.

They respectfully handed Cedric the small urn covered with a white cloth containing her ashes.

“Mr. Johnson, you can leave with Ms. Walker now.”

Cedric looked at the small urn held by the staff. There was also a photo of Natalie on it.

How could they treat his Nat like this?

How could they confine her to such a small box?
