A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 354 Settling in Simeria

Natalie didn’t know how she managed to leave the villa.

According to Bianca, Malcolm wasn’t restricting her freedom at the moment. It was just that she didn’t

want to come out.

Given the secretive identity associated with that man and Bianca’s proud nature, how could she

casually

stroll in the sunlight?

Back at Hillside Villa, Natalie had a sleepless night. In the morning, she received a call from Heather,

and

her mind was a bit foggy.

On the phone, Heather sounded exasperated.

What i

“Is Cedric crazy? does he have to treat you like that?”

Heather was furious! Ever since she learned that Cedric was still pestering Natalie even after adopting

Kayla, she was nearly driven mad with anger.

“It’s fine, Aunt.”

Natalie felt a warm sensation in her heart when she heard how Heather was standing up for her.

Heather, however, was genuinely upset.

“That woman messed up your life when she was alive. Now, her daughter continues to do the same

after

her death!”

Who could endure this situation?

Heather couldn’t comprehend why Cedric was so obsessed with Natalie.

In the past, didn’t he want to send Natalie to prison because of Isabella?

Since he couldn’t let go of Isabella’s daughter, why not just take the child and leave?

Didn’t he realize that there was no room for both Isabella and Natalie in his world?

“It’s all his own choice!” Natalie said indifferently after taking a deep breath.

On the other end of the line, Heather was momentarily stunned. Then she said, “You’re right. He made

his

choices.

From the beginning until now, he had always chosen Isabella,

Natalie was okay, that was all that mattered.

After hanging up the phone, Natalie pinched her slightly throbbing forehead.

Although she spoke casually before Heather to ease her concerns, in reality.

Her mind was in chaos.

Saying

ng it was Cedric’s choice would be fine if the man was decisive in his decision. However, he wanted

to have the best of both worlds.

To be so shameless and still act so righteous, Cedric was perhaps the only person in this world who

could manage that.

As for breakfast, Lydia noticed that Natalie didn’t look too good.

“Miss, is it because the little girl has been sent away? Are you still upset?”

Lydia and the others knew about Kayla’s identity, so they understood Natalie’s concerns.

During the month when the child was here, they couldn’t bring themselves to treat her coldly, but

Natalie

hadn’t returned once during that time.

It was evident that Natalie still couldn’t let go of the matter concerning Isabella.

Natalie’s mind was a mess.

During this period, whenever she thought of Isabella, what stood out the most was Isabella’s final

admission of her mistakes.

“Lydia.”

“Yes, Miss.”

“Did anything unusual happen when that child was here?”

Natalie wasn’t being overly sensitive.

When Isabella appeared in her world, Natalie knew she was a scheming woman. She plotted many

things

both overtly and covertly.

Consequently, Natalie subconsciously assumed that Kayla would be just like Isabella.

People always tend to harbor unconscious biases, and Natalie was no exception.

However, Lydia said, “The child is quite well–behaved”

I see.”

Well–behaved?

Natalie didn’t continue the conversation. Obviously, whether Kayla was well–behaved or not had

nothing to do with her, as she had no intention of getting involved with her.

After breakfast, Julian came to pick her up. On their way out, they passed by an international

kindergarten.

As the building came into view, Natalie said, “Wait a moment!”

Julian slowed down and parked the car by the roadside. Natalie looked at the school’s grand and

majestic appearance.

During this period, she had been consciously glancing at kindergartens. Although her child still had

some time before starting school, the maternal instincts that came with motherhood made her

understand

what it meant to want the best for her child.

She had been slowly exploring kindergartens, just like any other mother who would give their best to

their

children within their means.

“This school is a famous kindergarten in Simeria. It’s affiliated with the Simeria Central Elementary

School!”

“Is it a public kindergarten?”

“Yes. The facilities inside are in line with private kindergarten standards, and the staff is better equipped

than most private ones.”

So, in other words, this was the best public kindergarten in Simeria?

The children were entering the school at this hour. Watching the joyous faces of the children getting out

of the cars, Natalie could almost imagine how her own child would look when getting out of the car.

“Find out about the admission requirements for this school.”

“Don’t worry, Miss. If the young miss wants to attend this school, she’ll definitely be able to get in,”

Julian

sald with a smile.

Natalie nodded. There was no rush, after all. Her child was still young.

She hoped her child would have a good childhood. After all, school and academic pursuits would take

up

many years of a child’s life.

As Natalie glanced around, her gaze landed on the elementary school section of the school.

She had to admit that the school really lived up to its reputation of being the best school in Simeria!

Watching the children getting out of luxury cars, Natalie sighed. There were truly many wealthy people

in

this world.

The school zone was a bit congested. Suddenly, Natalie saw Cedric’s figure and instinctively glanced

his

way again.

“Miss, it seems to be Mr. Johnson

Natalie could see it!

At this moment, Cedric gently guided Kayla out of the car. When the little girl smiled at him, it was as i

the sun was shining in the sky.

Cedric also responded with a gentle smile.

“What a hypocrite!‘ Natalie spat out.

If she hadn’t experienced him burning her and her child to death at Scarlet Villa in her previous life, she

would probably have believed that the man before her was a good father.

In reality, he didn’t deserve it!

Julian stiffened for a moment, choosing not to respond.

On the other side, Cedric lifted Kayla into his arms. Despite being ten years old, she appeared to be

the

size of a five or six–year–old, indicating that she hadn’t grown well in recent years.

Suddenly, he noticed Natalie’s car, and his smile froze.

“Daddy.”

“Hmm?”

think that’s Mommy’s car.”

In Kayla’s tone, there was a hint of disappointment. Cedric’s eyes flickered with bitterness and

tenderness.

He gently ruffled Kayla’s soft hair.

“You have a good memory, hmm?

remember everything about her…” Her voice was weak as if carrying a sense of grievance.

Cedric was silent.

At her words he was even more stunned. He had to admit that this child had an excellent memory.

Despite not having had much interaction with Natalie, Kayla remembered everyone she had seen by

Natalie’s side

He continued to rub the child’s head.

“Don’t hate Mommy.”

Clearly, Cedric’s concern now was that Kayla might remember Natalie’s negative side. However, only

Cedric knew why Natalie couldn’t tolerate even the existence of a child.
