A Divorce After My Rebirth novel Chapter 296

Chapter 296 A Powerful Backing 

What happened in the afternoon had no impact on Natalie whatsoever. She appeared as cold as 

ever. 

After Cedric eft, she immersed herself back into work. In the afternoon, Leon came by with a somewhat solemn expression. 

“Any news about Bia?” Natalie asked. 

Even though Natalie had to put up with Cedric for information on Bianca, that didn’t mean she stopped investigating on her own end. 

It was evident she didn’t want deeper interactions with Cedric. 

However, to Natalie’s disappointment, Leon shook his head. 

“None.” 

“None?” Natalie’s heart tightened. 

But Leon’s expression was more than solemn. Natalie could tell it was more than just the absence of news about Bianca. 

“Is there more to this?” Natalie asked bluntly. 

Leon frowned, and the atmosphere turned heavy. Leon had been with Natalie for a long time, and it was rare he looked like this. 

It looked like… the situation was more complicated than Natalie thought. 

He glanced at her and said, “The person behind this probably sensed we were looking into Ms. Sanders. All the cases that she has handled over the years have been erased.” 

Natalie’s gaze instantly sharpened. “All of them? 

“Yes, ma’am.” 

All traces of Bianca’s work had been erased?! 

“So, we can’t even find out who had conflicts with Bianca anymore?” 

“No.” 

Natalie’s chest tightened. So, was the person behind this connected to Bianca’s work? 

Natalie had just ordered an investigation. Yet, this person had… 

They definitely had extraordinary abilities since they were able to wipe away every piece of Bianca’s work history! 

It indicated that this 

person was…! 

Natalie’s chest constricted. 

“Ms. Walker. 

“Hmm?” 

“What should we do now…?” 

What should they do? 

Undoubtedly, Natalie was working in the open while the other person remained in the 

shadows. 

Anything she did, that person would know. 

Natalie took a deep breath. “For now, do nothing!” 

It wasn’t about wasting time. On the contrary, Natalie suspected the person might be even 

harsher on Bianca if she intervened. 

“We’ve checked the hospitals, and it’s almost certain that Blanca is not in any hospital in 

Simeria.” 

“Alright.” 

At this moment, Natalie didn’t want to say anything. Her mind was in chaos, much like the 

situation in Simeria. 

Leon left, and Natalie smoked several cigarettes in succession, but it didn’t calm her down. She tried hard to think about what Bianca might have been involved in over the years. 

However, she failed. 

During the time Bianca was working, Natalie was still Cedric’s wife. Bianca was often 

preoccupied, and Natalie approached her only when she was troubled or unhappy. 

During those times, Bianca never talked about work–related grievances. She talked about only the joys of work, making it seem like an enjoyable experience. 

After work, Cedric came to pick her up personally without Lucas. 

On the way back, they didn’t head to Peach Garden. Natalie furrowed her brows briefly and then relaxed without saying anything. 

However, the man driving beside her seemed to read her mind. 

“They’re changing the lights at Peach Garden, so I’ll drop you off at Hillside Villa for now.” 

Changing the lights? 

Natalie smiled with a hint of amusement. “You don’t need to go through all this trouble, you 

know.” 

“Nat.” 

“Isn’t Isabella on your mind more often nowadays?” 

Natalie and Cedric had long parted ways. 

Also, Isabella was pregnant now! 

Thinking about Isabella’s pregnancy and Cedric’s persistence, Natalie turned to the man beside her. 

Her lips were pursed tightly, and Cedric obviously noticed 

thing was off. 

He reached over and affectionately tousled her soft hair. “You’re overthinking again, aren’t you?” 

Just like in the morning, Natalie slapped away the man’s hand with a decisive movement. 

Cedric glanced at her and continued, “You’ve asked Leon to withdraw from the investigation.” 

Natalie remained silent. When the topic shifted to Leon, her gaze turned cold. 

Undoubtedly, this afternoon had been tough for Natalie. 

“Who took Blanca away?” 

Her tone was sharp and carried a hint of heartache. 

How could Cedric…?! 

The car stopped at Hillside Villa. It was raining outside, and raindrops pattered heavily on the windshield. 

The atmosphere in the confined space became even heavier. 

Just then, Cedric’s phone vibrated. He pulled it out to see that it was Lucas calling him. 

“Hello.” 

“Sir, please check your phone quickly.” 

“What’s going on?” 

“We have a big problem!” 

The already tense atmosphere heightened with Lucas’s words. Natalie could hear everything 

as the volume on Cedric’s phone was loud. 

By the time Cedric hung up, she had already picked up her phone.
