A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 403 What She Owed

However, in the next moment, Natalie said, “I don’t want to hear it!”

“Nat, this concerns you and Isabella…”

“Enough, Cedric! Just what do you think you’re doing?”

Isabella.

Every time, he dared to mention Isabella.

What could one even say about this man?

Was Isabella a figure he could never move on from in his world?

Undoubtedly, Natalie’s reaction towards Isabella right now only confirmed what Kyle had said.

Isabella was a taboo in Natalie’s heart.

She despised anyone even uttering Isabella’s name.

“Nat, I understand you’re in pain…”

“Pain?” Natalie laughed mockingly. “You overestimate yourself.”

Pain? Where did he see the pain in her?

“Nat!”

Watching Natalie ignore his explanations, Cedric felt a heavy weight on his chest. It was as if

something was pressing down on him, causing immense pain and suffocation.

“I’m exhausted!” Natalie felt fed up with this relentless man who had been bothering her all night. It felt

like dawn was approaching, yet he showed no signs of stopping.

Finally, without waiting for her reaction, Cedric grabbed her to leave!

“What are you doing?”

Natalie was on the verge of losing it.

This man was truly relentless and insane!

“Come with me,” Cedric insisted.

My daughter is sleeping in her room, and you-

“Yes, she’s your daughter. Kayla is also your daughter, remember?”

A sharp slap echoed as Natalie struck Cedric across the face,

“Stop sickening me, will you?” she spat out, disgusted.

Every time Cedric claimed Kayla was his daughter, it made Natalie sick.

What audacity!

Cedric was silent.

His heart ached.

“Nat, you have to accept Kayla.”

This wasn’t the first time Cedric had uttered those words. But this time, his conviction was stronger

than ever.

If Natalie truly came from from their past life, did she realize what debt she owed to Isabella? Kayla

was the last bloodline left by Isabella in this world.

Natalie looked at Cedric with a chilling gaze. Even at this juncture, Cedric remained unyielding.

“Accept her?” Natalie’s voice dripped with icy sarcasm and danger.

‘You owe Bella!” Cedric shot back.

Bella? The way he said it was oddly intimate.

How significant was Isabella to him?

Natalie felt a piercing pain in her head.

“Cedric, I don’t owe anyone, especially not her!”

She gave her life for you!!

“That’s her own doing.” Natalie’s retort was sharp and angry.

Gave her life?

“It’s karma, you know?”

Natalie stared at the man before her, whose eyes had narrowed in a moment of chilling

intensity.

“It’s karma,” she repeated, each word dripping with venom.

For Natalie, Isabella was nothing more than a manifestation of divine retribution. Given all the malicious

deeds Isabella had committed, it seemed unfair that she hadn’t been taken by the heavens already.

Cedric gazed upon Natalie, finding her more infuriating than ever.

Natalie…” After a pause, he finally spoke, his voice tinged with indescribable disappointinent.

The sheer disappointment on his face only made Natalie’s smirk deepen.

It was this exact tone.

He had once used this tone with her because of Isabella, as if she had committed some unforgivable

sin.

And now, history was repeating itself.

Wasn’t this the Cedric she knew?

The man who would go to any length for Isabella, even at this point?

“Karma!” Natalie spat out the word vehemently.

Cedric’s memories clashed, tearing through his sanity like a relentless storm.

How could she?

Why had she become like this?

He felt an eerie chill emanating from her, especially when he looked into her indifferent eyes. This

Natalie was colder than anything he had ever seen, sending shivers down his spine.

“Do you even realize what you’ve become?”

“What I’ve become? I’ve only become like this because of you!” Natalie retorted, every deliberate and

cutting.

Indeed, whatever she had become now, it was Cedric who had driven her to it.

word

She had once been so naive, dreaming of a bright future and sacrificing everything for Cedric.

She had willingly stood behind him, but what had he ultimately done for her?

“No matter what you become, you can’t speak of Bella that way!”

The thought of Isabella in his past life, who had uttered Natalie’s name in her final moments, haunted

him. Even if she had to pay with her life, it wouldn’t compensate for the wrongs she had committed

against Natalie.

Back then, Isabella truly wanted to save Natalie. But despite giving even her life, she couldn’t leave the

hospital alive after she got the news that she had failed.

He had fervently prayed and pleaded in front of the Buddha.

Natalie had survived!

But by the time he arrived, it was already an uncontrollable situation, and he did his best to manage the

unfolding events.

However

“Hah!” Natalie laughed, a cold, disdainful chuckle directed at him.

She couldn’t speak of Isabella that way?

How noble of him!

Previously, it was Isabella. Now, it was her daughter.

Wasn’t it true that Isabella had never truly disappeared from his world?

Natalie, who had been ignorant before, now fully realized the horrifying depth of the man’s character.

“Nat, I know that the fire at Scarlet Villa…”

“Enough! I said enough!”

“Cedric, stop talking. I know everything. If you don’t want to be treated like a monster, stop

now”

At this point, Natalie acknowledged Cedric’s reincarnated identity.

Such an identity wasn’t flattering for her.

She thought she had left that world behind.

Since she had escaped that world, she never considered confronting the events of that world

head–on.

Violently shaking off Cedric’s grip and turning away, she had barely taken a few steps when Cedric’s

voice pierced the silence.

“Your consciousness is stuck on that fire, but do you even know what Bella did for you? Do you

understand the sacrifices she made?”

“You know nothing, Natalie!” The man’s voice was forceful, almost shouting. It was as if he was

revisiting some painful memory.

Natalie truly knew nothing. She was unaware of the immense pain and suffering endured by those left

behind after her death.
