A Divorce After My Rebirth novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251 Heart Like Ashes 

Isabella fumbled her way out from inside. 

As soon as she reached the outside, she was picked up by someone, arranged by Cedric to be by her side, 

but also… not! 

Lily carefully helped Isabella into the car and whispered in her ear, “Sir just called. He wants to see you. 

Upon hearing this, Isabella tensed and turned paled. 

The inner fear surged to the top of her head, causing her to shiver uncontrollably. 

“Where is he?” Isabella asked, her tone icy. 

Lily glanced at her and said, “Sunset Racecourse,” 

Isabella’s already pale face turned even whiter, and her breath became slightly constricted. 

“Cedric is in Verde City now, Is it convenient?” 

Undoubtedly, she did not want to see that person. 

Lily’s complexion changed, and a sinister hint flashed in her eyes. 

Isabella sensed it and, before Lily could speak, said, “Let’s go.” 

Cedric had gone mad. 

In Rebecca’s eyes, he was a complete lunatic. She suppressed the news of him living with the urn at 

Scarlet Villa. 

However, the news leaked, and now the entire Verde City was buzzing with rumors that the adopted 

daughter of the Johnson family had maliciously schemed against Cedric’s former wife. 

Moreover, Christina’s ugly and unrequited love for Cedric was also making headlines, causing quite a stir 

in Verde City. 

Rebecca was frantic with these rumors, but Cedric remained silently at Scarlet Villa 

“What on earth are you doing? Do you know what’s happening to the company now?” Rebecca looked at 

Cedric on the sofa in exasperation. 

He continued holding the small urn day and night, as if he were holding the entire world. 

+15 BONUS 

However, the company was in chaos, and the stock had plummeted since the public opinion turned. 

Yet, Cedric remained indifferent. 

She hadn’t managed the company for many years, and now it was challenging to handle things. She hoped Cedric would wake up. 

However, Cedric appeared desolate 

It seemed like he was waiting! 

“Do you know if things continue like this, the incident in the eastern suburbs will eventually be linked to you? Do you realize the consequences?” 

So many lives had been impacted in that incident! 

After she said that, Cedric, who had been silent, calmly said, “Prison.” 

Rebecca asked, bewildered, “What did you say?” 

“The price… imprisonment,” he calmly stated, the distressing result uttered with unsettling calmness as if 

this was the outcome he had been waiting for 

Now, everything was gradually tilting towards Johnson Enterprise, even public opinion. Given the current 

situation, the outcome was predictable. 

Yet, he spoke of this result without any hesitation, as if he did not need to worry about it. 

Rebecca felt a heavy weight in her chest. 

“Do you know that Zane, who used to work with Natalie, has now joined forces with Dylan by Irwin’s side? 

“If you don’t do anything, you’ll really end up in prison!” Rebecca expressed her frustration. 

She also knew that Cedric couldn’t be dissuaded before, insisting on targeting Natalie and causing such a 

big commotion. 

Zane, who worked with Natalie before her death, had teamed up with Dylan now. These two were quietly 

investigating things. 

She naturally knew what they were looking for. 

They were seeking justice for Natalie! 

+15 BONUS 

Even if Natalie was gone, they wouldn’t let her suffer injustice after death. If those two really found those 

things, Cedric would face such consequences. 

Seeing Cedric’s silence, Rebecca realized that her speculations were true. 

“I think you’ve really gone mad 

He did nothing; he just waited for that outcome. 

Faced with Rebecca’s anger, Cedric simply closed his eyes and calmly said, “I deserve this retribution.” 

Natalie endured the pain of being burned alive in two lifetimes. No one knew how desperate he was as he 

stayed by her side in her final moments in their previous life. 

She had lost all consciousness. Except for the doctor saying she was alive, he couldn’t find any signs of 

life on her. 

He looked at her every day, reading her favorite books to her and playing the music she liked. He waited for her to wake up every day and arranged the best plastic surgeon for her. 

Yet, he couldn’t bear to see her suffer that pain and didn’t start the surgery. He even thought about just. guarding her like that for a lifetime, as long as she didn’t have to endure any more pain. 

He even thought that it might be better if she didn’t wake 

seeing how ugly she looked after waking up. 

As long as she lived, he would stay by her side forever. 

But in the end, the nightmare came! 

up because she surely wouldn’t be able to bear 

As a vegetable, she developed late–stage liver cancer. Despite his efforts to save her life, she still died. 

He tasted the pain of being unable to wait for her and was forced to let her go completely. He didn’t even have the chance to accompany her to the end of his life. 

Who would have thought that in this life, he would be even more reckless towards her, making her suffer 

under his name?! 

He was her nightmare, and he would pay the price for it. 

He was going to bear all the suffering he gave her, and he would fully endure all the pain he once inflicted 

on her! 

Maybe it would be even more painful than what she had experienced. 

Rebecca listened to Cedric’s words, and her heart pounded wildly in her chest.
