A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 295 Learning about Her Eyes

The atmosphere became tense.

Stephen raised his cup and took a sip before asking, “Is this about Nat?”

“Her health hasn’t been good these past two years, right?” Cedric asked with a hoarse voice.

Stephen’s gaze turned icy in an instant.

Without a doubt..!

Even if Isabella had approached Cedric with ulterior motives, it was Cedric who was asking about

Natalie’s health right now.

When it came to Natalie, Stephen instinctively believed that Cedric had the least right to know anything!

After all, he had been the cause of most of Natalie’s problems!

When the truth was revealed, the reasons and secrets behind those actions were just excuses in the

eyes of the person who was hurt.

Instead of answering Cedric’s question, Stephen asked, “Is Isabella still staying at Morina Hotel?”

Morina Hotel was also a part of Regal Horizons International’s hotel division.

Did Cedric actually arrange for her to stay at Morina Hotel?

Was he truly unaware, or…!

When Isabella’s name was mentioned, both of their expressions darkened, especially Cedric’s.

Stephen looked at the subtle change in Cedric’s eyes and smiled coldly. “It seems that she’s still so

important to you. If so-

“Mr. Jarvis!” Cedric interrupted Stephen’s unfinished sentence.

When had it started that anyone who talked to him would connect him to Isabella?

There was nothing between them!

Faced with Stephen’s sharp eyes, Cedric’s throat tightened. Then he said, “I just want to know. how

Nat has been these past two years.”

Yes. He had come to see Stephen to understand the issue of Natalie’s health.

As Stephen suspected, last night, Cedric had felt

It had been well past midnight, yet there was no warmth in her body at all. This wasn’t a

So, it was clear that Natalie had some significant health issues,

Stephen lit a cigar and then looked at Cedric.

“Who am I?”

Who was Stephen?!

Without a doubt, Stephen’s sudden question made him stiffen momentarily. Without waiting for him to

speak, Stephen exhaled a puff of smoke.

His tone became sharper and colder as he said, “Do you still think she’s the same Natalie who had

nothing and allowed you to manipulate her?”

Had nothing

Allowed Cedric to manipulate her?

Stephen emphasized these points heavily.

In that instant, it was as if a bucket of cold water was poured over Cedric’s head. It sobered him up

instantly.

Things were different.

Not only was Natalie different in terms of character, but also in everything she possessed.

Everything had changed.

“The entire Regal Horizons is her natal family. Mr. Johnson, allow me to remind you… Her world is

clean and will not tolerate any contamination!”

Any contamination?

What did that mean?!

Undoubtedly, Stephen was talking about emotions!

Although Stephen didn’t explicitly state it, he also pointed out that Cedric’s handling of emotions was

not rational and appropriate!

However, was Natalie’s world really clean? Or was Stephen too confident that Regal Horizons

International was spotless?

“So, if you genuinely care for her, you should quickly settle everything on your side!!!

This statement from Stephien was dangerous and served as a warning to Cedric

Cedric stood up and silently nodded at Stephen.

However, as he turned away, he heard Stephen say, “And, in the future, don’t let her drive…”

Cedric couldn’t remember how he had left Lotus Villa.

As he sat in the car, his mind was filled with Stephen’s instructions about Natalie’s eyes.

Stephen knew that Cedric was the one who made Natalie drive the other day.

It was merely driving a car…!

However, Stephen said, “Fortunately, nothing happened that day, or it would have been disastrous!”

He continued, “Natalie’s eyes were severely damaged in the fire two years ago.”

Instantly, Cedric thought about why Natalie always wore glasses no matter when he saw her…!

Last night, he felt that Natalie was genuinely afraid of bright, glaring lights.

So that was it..!

Two years ago, that major fire not only burned her skin but almost took her sight as well.

Darkness!

The path was different this time.

In his previous life, Natalie had lost her eyesight. This time, she narrowly escaped the edge of

darkness.

Cedric didn’t know how he ended up at Regal Horizons International.

Natalie had just come out of the meeting room and returned to her office. The moment she opened the

door, she fell into Cedric’s arms!

The familiar and crisp scent made Natalie struggle continuously.

“Let go of me!”

This damn man! Why was he everywhere?!

Natalie was troubled by this, but unfortunately, she couldn’t outright refuse him. After all, Biaca’s

Information was in his hands. He was fully making use of it to do whatever he pleased here.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Cedric asked as she struggled, and the man’s grip tightened.

At this moment, his warm breath sprayed against her ear.

What was he talking about?

Clearly, she didn’t understand what the man was asking all of a sudden.

Also, she didn’t understand the pain she heard in his tone!

Hah! Would Cedric feel pain? Would he suffer for her?

In Natalie’s perception, this man seemed incapable of feeling pain…..

“Let me go first!” Natalie was about to lose her patience. She still had many files to review!

However, Cedric put her on the sofa in one swift movement. The moment she gained freedom, Natalie

subconsciously wanted to distance herself from this man.

But in the next moment, she was confined in his arms again.

The man’s slightly cold fingertips rubbed against the area around her eyes. Then, he unexpectedly

removed her glasses!

“Cedric!”

Natalie’s tone now carried a hint of anger.

However, Cedric seemed unaffected by anything. He gently rubbed her eyelids.

“It must have hurt a lot back then, didn’t it?” His tone was light, yet it carried a sense of pain

Now, Natalie understood what Cedric was talking about.

So, he knew about her eyes!?

However, whether it was the scars left by those burns on her body or these eyes, they were all gaps

between her and Cedric.

Two years had passed…!

Even after two years, Natalie could still recall how much pain she endured in the raging fire. Despite

managing to bury these wounds deep within her heart, the scabs of those scars were brutally torn open

once again by the man.

Vivid memories drenched in blood overwhelmed Natalie, and a suffocating feeling engulfed

her chest.

Slap!

A sharp sound echoed as she slapped away the man’s hand, her gaze both hazy and icy.

Looking at the pain that flashed in her eyes, Cedric felt like his heart was mercilessly torn

apart.

There was no need to ask

+25 BONUS

He could imagine the depth of despair Natalie experienced back then.

It was as if he felt the pain in his own body. She must have suffered as though she was being skinned

alive!

And at the thought of her suffering… he felt like his heart was being gouged out of his chest!
