Chapter 10 Throwing Mud Back
“I told Cedric I wanted a divorce yesterday! So, from now on, I have no connection to the Johnson
family’s company, even if it goes bankrupt,” Natalie responded as she stroked the piglet, calmly facing the scolding on the other end of the phone.
Rebecca, who had been berating her on the phone, was taken aback by Natalie’s words. Then, the older
woman screeched, “What did you say?”
“I want a divorce from him.”
The air grew quiet.
Rebecca had always asserted her dominance as Natalie’s mother–in–law, and she couldn’t grasp the
sudden change in Natalie.
Earlier, she had told Natalie to drop by the Johnson Manor, but the younger woman had brushed her off!
And now, she dared to speak this way?!
Natalie had completely dropped all pretenses with the Johnson family now. In the morning, it was
Christina, and now it was Rebecca.
She felt extremely satisfied inside.
For three years, she had been nothing in this family.
Even when she was pregnant, they had manipulated her without mercy.
There was a saying that the mother was just as precious as the child in her womb. That concept didn’t exist in the Johnson family.
They were so cold that it was repulsive.
“What gives you the right to ask for a divorce? Natalie, don’t you see…”
Rebecca completely lost her composure and started to curse, but Natalie had lost interest and simply hung up the call.
Compared to her previous meekness, this change was like night and day. She used to be polite to the people of the Johnson family,
But now, she was anything but polite.
As expected, the public opinion was stirred up.
The police also came knocking, and with them was Cedric.
Seeing Cedric, Natalie’s heart turned cold.
He spoke to the police about something, and the police nodded before approaching her.
“We need your assistance in investigating Ms. Morgan’s kidnapping,” the man spoke calmly.
Natalie looked at Cedric. Her eyes were calm, yet more piercing than any sharp questioning.
The man turned his head slightly, his profile tense.
He said, “Nat, I hope this has nothing to do with you.”
Natalie sneered.
He hoped she had nothing to do with it, but he didn’t believe it had nothing to do with her.
