A Divorce After My Rebirth novel Chapter 7

It was a sleepless night for Natalie. She spent the entire night thinking about various moments from her previous life—how Cedric and Isabella had been together and the heartlessness with which Cedric had made her sign the surgery consent form. 

The only thing she didn’t want to recall was the seven years of their love and the three years of their marriage.

Yesterday afternoon, Natalie sent the divorce agreement to the handwriting analysis center.

Upon waking up, she immediately called to inquire about the results. Once she had that sorted out, she went to where she had arranged to meet Bianca.

Bianca had arrived ahead of her and was waiting at the entrance. She wore a professional outfit with a windbreaker, which was Natalie’s favorite look.

However, she hadn’t dressed that way since her marriage to Cedric.

So, every time she saw Bianca, she envied her for her mature appearance.

Natalie asked, “Why didn’t you go in first?”

“You’re Mrs. Johnson, remember? Your chosen venues are all exclusive members-only places. They don’t entertain non-members.”

Natalie stiffened upon hearing that. She looked at Bianca with a guilty expression and said, “I’m sorry. I…”

“Oh, come on, I’m just teasing you.”

Seeing that Natalie didn’t know what to say, Bianca interrupted her and pulled her inside.

It had to be said that since being with Cedric, Natalie had become increasingly immersed in his world.

Even having a casual afternoon tea could cost more than some people’s monthly salary. It was no wonder that when she married Cedric, many people speculated that she was marrying him for his money.

“So, what changed your mind?” Bianca asked while stirring her coffee.

Natalie looked down, and her long lashes concealed the emotions in her eyes. Her tone was calm as she replied, “I simply had a moment of realization.”

Six months ago, when Bianca had advised her to divorce Cedric, she had been angry for over three months and hadn’t spoken to her best friend during that time.

She now looked apologetically at the woman opposite her and said, “Bia, I’m sorry for before. I wasn’t really mad at you. I was just scared.”

She had been afraid that all the rumors circulating outside were true. It took a lot of courage to let go of a ten-year relationship, something not everyone could do.

Bianca appeared nonchalant, her words direct and sharp as ever. “I understand. After all, you’ve been together for so many years. A man like him is quite charming when you’re in love.”

Natalie remained silent.

“Marriage really isn’t suited for you,” Bianca stated matter-of-factly.

Natalie nodded.

Over these three years, only she knew what kind of life she had been living.
