A Divorce After My Rebirth novel Chapter 381

Chapter 381 Leon Has Gone to Wexford 

The night at Peach Garden was exceptionally quiet, accompanied by the sounds of insects and birds. The natural atmosphere unconsciously brought a sense of tranquility. 

However, Natalie could not have slept here if it weren’t for her extreme fatigue. 

At some point, it didn’t matter how quiet the surroundings were. Whenever Cedric was around, nothing could suppress the turmoil in her heart. 

In a daze, she felt someone moving her. 

Opening her weary eyes, the man’s distinct profile under the warm orange glow appeared gentle, almost like a beautiful angel. 

However, Natalie’s exhaustion vanished in this moment, replaced by a vigilant gaze fixed on Cedric. When she felt his movements, she immediately went from grogginess to alertness. 

Slap! 

A crisp sound of a slap echoed, landing heavily on the man’s face. 

The air around them froze instantly. 

The sound of insects became clearer at that moment. Even the slightest pin drop could be heard. 

“You lunatic!” Natalie roared. 

Images of what happened in the car filled her mind, intensifying the fierceness in her gaze as if she wanted to tear him apart. 

Cedric held a tube of ointment, looking at her. 

He smiled when he saw the fierce hatred in her eyes. 

It was a chilling smile. 

“What, I can’t touch?” he mocked. 

When Natalie was quiet, Cedric felt guilt and pain. When he faced Natalie’s guarded gaze, he 

wished to tame her. 

Equidn’t he? 

Who could if he couldn’t? 

Caleb 21 

Natalie looked at the mockery in his eyes. There was already a fire in her eyes, but his words ignited it into a burning rage. 

She raised her hand to slap him again, but Cedric caught her wrist. 

“Still not enough?” 

“Don’t touch me!” Natalie hissed through gritted teeth. 

It used to be a sweet memory when they were intimate in the past, but now… all it did wast make her current resistance and repulsion even stronger. 

“Who can touch you, then?” Cedric’s tone was sharp and icy. 

Natalie was silent. 

Who could touch her? 

“Anyone can, but not you. I don’t think you have the right to question me about this, right? What? Are you interrogating me now?” Natalie retorted. 

Yes, he was interrogating her! 

She could hear it in his tone. 

What right did this man have to interrogate her? 

Who did he think he was?! 

“Natalie!” 

“Do I need to remind you? We’re divorced.” Natalie said, emphasizing the latter part of her 

sentence in a biting tone. 

Cedric was silent. 

Her words grated on his nerves. He harshly gripped Natalie’s chin with his slender fingers. 

“Hah… If you didn’t remind me, I might have forgotten it!” 

“Then please remember it well from now on!” Natalie’s words were as icy as her gaze. “Don’t ever do such disgraceful things again.” 

They held each other’s gaze, and the coldness reflected in their eyes was like ice. 

Cedric gripped her chin harder, and the resentment in Natalie’s eyes grew colder. 

After a while, the man sneered and released her. He stood up and slammed the ointment onto The bedside table. 

+25 BONUS 

He sarcastically asked, “Do you think Premier Garden can hold on for long? And Clyde…!” 

Thinking about Clyde, a chill filled Cedric’s heart 

When did Natalie’s life become so complicated? 

Clyde was now living with the Jarvis family! 

“Natalie, your uncle is a cunning old fox. You gave birth to Caleb’s child, and Clyde has moved into Lotus Villa. He really knows how to play his cards well.” 

The man’s tone was chilling. What was even colder… was Natalie’s heart. 

Her gaze was heavy with resentment, and her lips were tightly pursed. 

Her silence, in Cedric’s eyes, seemed like she was admitting to everything he said. 

Bang! 

Cedric slammed the door behind him, leaving behind a chilling atmosphere. 

Natalie sat on the bed for a long time. Her expression became colder and more distant. 

This was the relationship between her and Cedric, whether in this life or the past… There were plenty of misunderstandings that couldn’t be resolved and explanations that couldn’t be believed between them. 

Was it because they were biased in their hearts? 

Or was it…? 

Natalie didn’t want to think about it.. 

Wasn’t it because of this that her passion and warmth towards him gradually faded? 

Natalie called Julian. 

When she went downstairs in her pajamas, she saw Kayla sipping water. Upon seeing Natalie, Kayla’s eyes flickered with fear. 

Natalie averted her eyes after sparing the girl a glance. However, as she reached the doorway, she heard something fall and the sound of something shattering. 

Natalie turned back to see the glass Kayla had been holding on the floor. The glass shards had cut her and left a bloodied streak on her small leg. 

“Sob, sob…!” Kayla instantly burst into tears. 

The servants who heard the commotion rushed out. When they saw Kayla’s injured state, the scene descended into chaos. 

Cedric also came down when he heard the noise. 

As he ran towards Kayla, Natalie felt that his anxious demeanor was an eyesore 

“Daddy. Sob !” 

“What’s going on? How did she get hurt?” 

“Sob, sob…” Kayla looked at the doorway with a pitiful and aggrieved appearance. 

Cedric followed her gaze and saw Natalie standing in the doorway with an indifferent expression. 

At that moment…. his eyes were cold and filled with profound disappointment. 

As Natalie observed the disappointment in his eyes, a mocking smile curled on her lips.
