A Divorce After My Rebirth novel Chapter 554

Clyde's warm fingertips gently grazed her eyes.

Feeling this warmth, Natalie felt as if she had been scorched. A stifling sensation rose in her chest.

Clyde said, "The doctor mentioned your condition is severe. You need to listen this time, okay?"

"Okay."

Previously, Natalie's family had insisted on an immediate surgery. However, perhaps due to her past life's harrowing experience with darkness, Natalie still harbored deep-seated fears.

Regardless of the advice given, she resisted, not wanting to plunge back into that abyss.

In truth, she was terrified!

The risks associated with the eye surgery were high. Should it fail, she would be plunged into an endless darkness.

In her previous life, she had suffered enough within that void. So this time around, she was adamant about not spending even a second enveloped in it.

Like a devil's lair, the overwhelming darkness left one feeling utterly trapped—a sensation only those who've endured could truly grasp.

"Nat."

"Hmm?"

"Try to relax as much as possible during this period. It'll be beneficial for the surgery."

Clyde's words were firm, as if he would quickly secure the resources for Natalie's operation.

However, just as he was about to stand, Natalie suddenly grasped his hand.

"What's wrong?" Clyde asked as he lowered his head to look at Natalie.

"Let things flow naturally, alright?" Natalie said in a heavy tone.

Clyde paused for a moment, realizing the gravity of Natalie's words. Considering the Jarvis family's background, it wasn't particularly challenging to arrange this surgery for her.

However, he now understood why she hesitated.

Natalie had endured so much.

From Cedric to Isabella and Kayla...!

Yet, despite the myriad pains life had thrown her way, what was truly remarkable was her enduring attitude toward it all.

Clyde's eyes softened. "Don't worry."

The man's tone was gentle, and Natalie released his hand only then. With that, Clyde departed from the room.

Left alone, Natalie lay on the chaise longue. She closed her eyes for a moment and then opened them, attempting to see clearly.

Yet, no matter how hard she tried, everything remained blurred before her.
