A Divorce After My Rebirth
Chapter 383

Chapter 383 Past and Present

Silence filled the air.

Even through the phone, one could feel the coldness of the confrontation between them.

After a while, Cedric took a deep breath and said, “Children are fragile when sick. She has been calling

for you since she started to have a fever.”

“She’s calling for her mother, not me.” Natalie’s tone grew colder.

To Cedric, Natalie’s current self seemed like a stranger. It felt as if they had never known each

other.

“Kyle is on his way,” Cedric added as his tone became more assertive.

Natalie chuckled coldly.

“Why are you laughing?” Cedric asked.

“Cedric, do you know what you look like right now?”

Before he could respond, Natalie continued, “You used to repeatedly force me to do things for her

mother.”

“Do you remember what you made me do? Her mother is now dead, so you’ll do anything for her child,

huh?”

The air fell silent once again.

Once, it was Isabella. Now, it was Isabella’s daughter!

The Cedric in this life…!

It seemed like he would never let go of Isabella in his heart.

It was silent for a long while. Just as Natalie was about to hang up, the man on the phone. spoke again,

“Her name is Kayla.”

“In her heart, you’re her mother!”

“I’m not her mother!” Natalie exploded with anger and hung up the phone without another

Word.

She wished she could scream, but she gritted her teeth and endured it because Luna was with

Natalie could be kind to anyone, but never to Isabella’s daughter.

Even after hanging up the call for a long time, Natalie couldn’t calm herself.

No matter what her feelings for Cedric were now, a high wall seemed to rise in her heart whenever she

thought of Isabella.

There seemed to be a voice in her consciousness that kept telling her it was impossible.

Completely impossible.

There was no chance she and Cedric would ever get back together.

Enough.

It was enough!

She had been burned alive twice, and she could still vividly remember the pain.

“Máma,” Luna called out to Natalie and handed her the empty milk bottle.

No matter how much anger Natalie harbored towards Cedric at that moment, seeing her child’s

innocent eyes made it all disappear.

Shoving thoughts of Cedric completely from her mind, Natalie picked up Luna and went to the

bathroom. She carefully washed Luna’s face and little bottom, applying lotion with great care.

She did everything meticulously.

“Mama!”

Luna kept calling out for Natalie as she obediently stayed in her arms.

Natalie kissed her daughter and said, “My little princess is so cute.”

After changing Luna into a pretty little dress and carefully arranging her hair, they headed downstairs.

Heather couldn’t help but smile when she saw the adorable child.

“Come here, let me see,” Heather said.

“Okay.”

Heather truly cared for the child. During the day, Luna remained quite attached to her. At the. breakfast

table, however, both Clyde and Stephen were absent.

“Where are they?” Natalie asked, puzzled.

Normally, Stephen would be present for breakfast

Heather replied, “I don’t know what they’ve been busy with lately. Cly and Stephen have been in and

out. Oh, but let’s not bother about the men’s affairs,”

Heather, perhaps now that Clyde had been found, was less concerned about external matters.

Wasn’t that what parents were like?

What else could bring greater happiness and content ment when their children were safe and sound by

their side in their old age?

The nights of weeping were over for Heather. Now, she could enjoy spending time with her

granddaughter.

When Clyde got married, there would be even more grandchildren to care for.

How wonderful…!

After breakfast, Stephen and Clyde returned. Their expression was somewhat unpleasant, and it was

evident that something had happened outside.

Natalie glanced at Heather, but it seemed as though she hadn’t noticed or pretended not to.

She played with Luna, seemingly unbothered.

Natalie turned to the housekeeper and said, “Willow, please prepare some food for a late

breakfast.”

For Stephen and Clyde to have returned at this hour, they likely hadn’t eaten anything this morning.

Willow nodded.

In no time, Willow had prepared the food for Natalie. Natalie carried the tray upstairs. When she arrived

at the study door, she found it slightly ajar.

She overheard Stephen’s solemn voice from inside, “Didn’t Nat tell him about your relationship with

her?”

Him? Who?

Clyde responded, “Don’t bother about him.”

“Still…”

“I know what you’re worried about, but Cedric is unsuitable for her.” Clyde interrupted before Stephen

could finish.

Natalie was silent.

Stephen was referring to Cedric!

What had Cedric done to Clyde?!

Thinking back to the morning’s argument over the phone, Natalie’s heart sank

Cedric! He..!

Before she entered, she heard Clyde continue, “That person is too extreme. We shouldn’t let her know

for now. She finally has some time to spend with the child.”

Clyde’s tone was grave.

Stephen also nodded, a trace of guilt flashing in his eyes.

Indeed, the pressure Natalie had been under for the past two years was beyond words.

Now that she finally had time to spend with Luna, they should let her have some peace.

Natalie quietly went downstairs. When Willow saw Natalie bringing down the breakfast untouched, she

was puzzled.

“Miss, what’s the matter?”

“Willow, I’m not feeling well. Please take it up for me.” Natalie said, putting down the tray and walking

towards the door without waiting for Willow’s response.

Willow looked bewildered.

Julian wasn’t around, so Natalie had the driver take her directly where she wanted to go.

When she arrived at Peach Garden, the butler informed her that Cedric had stayed with Kayla in her

room the entire night.

Anger surged in Natalie’s chest.

She headed upstairs and directly to Kayla’s room.

Standing at the door, she saw Cedric carefully feeding Kayla soup. The tenderness in his eyes was

almost overflowing.

“Well, aren’t you just so caring!” Natalie sarcastically remarked, shattering the harmonious

scene inside →

Cedric and Kayla turned their heads to look at Natalie simultaneously.

Natalie stepped into the room, her heels clicking in a muffled sound against the carpet.

When Cedric saw the coldness in Natalie’s eyes, he furrowed his brows. Kayla sensed the danger

emanating from Natalie and instinctively moved behind Cedric, seemingly afraid.

It appeared as though she feared Natalie.

‘Don’t be afraid,” Cedric reassured Kayla softly and stepped forward to face Natalie.

In his eyes, there was a warning.

Why?

Was it because Kayla feared her?
