A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 236 Struggling on Both Fronts

On Natalie’s side, after repeated interrogation sessions, she eventually found herself taken into custody

without any further inquiries.

Leon naturally couldn’t be by her side during this period, but he visited her every day.

In the evening, Natalie was originally lying in bed. When she heard Leon was coming, she quickly got

up to

meet him.

His face was serious when she saw him.

She had been waiting the entire week for news from Zane’s side. Meanwhile, the evidence here had

already gone through the review process and had been accepted.

Even in such a situation, she did not give up, placing her hope on Zane.

However, the solemn expression on Leon’s face now caused Natalie’s chest to tighten.

“How is it? Any results?” Natalie approached and asked.

Leon nodded.

However, when Natalie asked about the results, the graveness in Leon’s eyes deepened.

Natalie’s chest tightened further at Leon’s reaction. Without him saying it, she could probably already

guess the outcome.

Leon said, “Zane has already gone to compare the results, and Cedric has tampered with it.”

In other words, the comparison results were not favorable to her.

Natalie’s heart felt like it was being stabbed when she heard Cedric’s name. She smiled bitterly.

“It seems he wishes for my death.”

Indeed.

Cedric had gone to great lengths to turn everyone against her. At a time like this, how could he let her

easily leave?

His level of cruelty exceeded everyone’s expectations.

“There’s still no verdict! There’s still a way out. Zane and Karina are also planning so that you have

time to

think about things,” Leon said.

Natalie closed her eyes, hiding the pain and stubborn struggle in her eyes.

Her whole body emitted an air of refusal to surrender. After a long time, she opened her eyes, devoid of

pain, only sharpness.

Looking at Leon, she said, “Have Zane secretly send the information abroad.”

In Verde City, Cedric’s people were undoubtedly keeping an eye on her.

“But what about the timing?”

“We don’t have any other choice, Natalie said.

She might not get the results before the verdict, but she could get out as long as the final evidence

could

be overturned.

And she must get out of here!

“Oh, there’s one more thing.”

“What is it?”

“They’ve arranged the medical procedures. They will give you a physical examination tomorrow

everything goes well, they’ll perform the surgery for you right after.”

Natalie was silent.

Right, the surgery.

The abortion surgery.

The sharp glint in her eyes dimmed for a moment.

She fell silent.

Subconsciously, she rested her hand on her abdomen.

If

She took a deep breath and said, “I got it. You can go back and ask Zane to expedite the process.”

Leon looked at her with some concern in his eyes.

After uttering those words, Natalie turned and went inside.

Undoubtedly, regardless of whether it was an instinctive decision or a carefully considered one, she

would still feel heartbroken about the child.

Back in her room, the moonlight streamed in through the cold iron bars, casting a chilly glow on Natalie.

“I’m so sorry,” Natalie said to the child in her belly.

She was currently in a confrontation with Cedric,

After getting out of here, all she wanted was to turn the evidence against Cedric

To put it bluntly, at this point in her relationship with Cedric, he wished for her death, and she wished to

see him in prison.

In such a life–and–death situation where no reconciliation between them was possible, she couldn’t

bring

the child into this world.

It would only be a sin for her if she did!

Meanwhile, Isabella was looking at Christina in disbelief.

She didn’t expect Christina to be so audacious. She dared to question Isabella in a place where there

were so many people!

She could clearly feel the chill emanating from Christina.

Christina said, “Find a way to distract Ced tomorrow. I’ll come to you.”

Every word Christina spoke was a threat.

Isabella’s anger surged. She firmly said, “No!”

“Isabella!

“We’re going to be engaged in a week. You’ll do well to remember that I’ll be your future sister–in–law!”

Both spoke in hushed tones under the gaze of outsiders, portraying a scene where they looked like

best

friends while exchanging harsh words.

When Christina heard that they would be engaged in a week, her eyes turned sinister as she closed

them.

*You dare take me for a fool?!”

“I’ve said it before, compared to you, your brother is the most reliable partner.”

Isabella had said such words before.

She thought back to what Christina and Rebecca had done to her in Sapphire. Isabella knew that apart

Now that she was blind, her eyes were completely useless. She naturally had to consider her future

thoroughly, and her decision was to hold onto Cedric firmly.

She didn’t care about working with anyone else.

In the next moment, a sudden pain shot through the inside of her arm.

“Ugh!”

Isabella instinctively pushed Christina away.

A sharp scream rang out, and everyone’s gaze turned towards Isabella and Christina.

Previously, some eyes were on them due to their seemingly harmonious interaction. Now, those who

were watching saw Isabella directly pushing away Christina.

“Ugh! It hurts”

Christina was thrown to the ground, and her foot… was twisted.

She looked at Isabella with tearful eyes, a mixture of grievances and hesitation in her expression.

The gazes of the people present, directed at Isabella, changed once again.

Everyone tacitly agreed that things in the Johnson family were currently complicated. It didn’t matter

whether it was about Isabella, who was blind, or Christina, who everyone saw got shoved to the

ground.

Lucas was also startled by the commotion and approached Isabella, “Ms. Morgan?”

“I…” Isabella’s face turned pale, her lips trembling.

She sensed the unfriendly looks of the people around her.

What had she done wrong?

Upon hearing the commotion, Rebecca hurried over.

Seeing Christina sitting on the ground, her anger surged instantly. “What did you do to her?”

She of

She glared at Isabella maliciously, believing that this blind woman would only bring trouble.

Christina, feeling wronged, burrowed Into Rebecca’s embrace. “Mom.”

“Hush, it’s okay. I’m here. Rebecca glared at Isabella fiercely, as If she wanted to tear her apart.

Previously, she felt grateful upon learning that Isabella was Ivan’s sister. But now, she was angry becau

“Ced? Where’s Ced?”

He had brought a blind person here, and now he was nowhere to be found!

Rebecca was infuriated seeing Isabella’s haughty demeanor, especially now that she had caused such

a

big incident.

“Go! Fetch Ced” Rebecca angrily shouted at the butler.

At this moment, chaos reigned because Isabella pushed Christina.

Meanwhile, in Christina’s room upstairs, various pieces of jewelry were scattered on the dressing table.

Cedric held a card in his hand.

His gaze… lingered on the last four digits of the card number.
