A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

chapter 122 Weak Point

Natalie arrived at Slyvan Gems, she gazed at the towering building. Even the modest appearance

outside couldn’t hide the artistic atmosphere within.

Sylvan Gems had always been low–key in Verde City. As the company focused only on jewelry, its

competitive strength was not particularly prominent.

Cedric had never mentioned this place around her before.

Natalie never expected it to be a branch under Stephen. Thinking about it now, she had no idea how

many

companies were under Stephen’s name.

Natalie entered the lobby, where a staff who had seen the day before approached and asked

respectfully,”

Are you Ms. Walker?”

“Yes.”

“Please follow me,” the receptionist said in the same respectful tone as she led the way for Natalie.

Natalie followed behind her and observed her surroundings.

The working atmosphere here was somewhat different from Cedric’s company. It was seemingly

stringent, leaving no room for errors. Even the receptionist seemed professionally trained. Her gestures

and posture were rigid and precise.

They came to a stop in front of a private elevator.

“Ms. Walker, please head in. Someone will be waiting for you upstairs.”

“Okay.” Natalie nodded.

The elevator went straight to the top floor.

As the elevator doors opened, a lady dressed similarly to the receptionist saw Natalie and had the

same

polite smile on her face.

“This way, Ms. Walker.”

Natalie followed methodically.

The lady led Natalie to the door of the meeting room.

At that moment, Natalie froze!

Stephen had asked her to come to… Sylvan Gems’s meeting room?!

hout waiting for Natalle to be mentally prepared, the lady respectfully opened the door to the meeting

room for her.

When she saw the scene inside, Natalie tensed.

Ms. Walker, please head in.”

Natalie was speechless.

All eyes inside were on her, and Natalie looked directly past everyone to the figure at the head of the

table

-Stephen.

There was a questioning look in her eyes.

There was a solemn look on Stephen’s face, and the emotions in his eyes were difficult to read.

Before Natalie could say anything, Stephen announced, “This is our new CEO, Ms. Natalie Walker!”

As he finished speaking, applause erupted throughout the room!

Natalie stood in front of the meeting room with her mind in chaos.

CEO?!

“Congratulations, Ms. Walker! The lady beside Natalie softly said.

Natalie snapped back to reality.

When she met Stephen’s eyes, she momentarily felt like running away.

He hadn’t told her beforehand!

That was just…!

As she stared at Stephen, Natalie felt her head aching painfully.

With Natalie winning the bids for Premier Garden Corporation and Apex Global, Cedric had initially

intended to compensate for the losses in his real estate subsidiary with projects from Verde Biotech

Ventures!

He only wanted to teach Natalie a small lesson, but Rebecca and other members of the Johnson family

had different intentions!

hne, Rebecca couldn’t turn the tables on the situation. As a resourceful person, she managed to

redirect the entire Johnson family’s animosity toward Natalie.

Now, everyone in the Johnson family had only one goal–to drive Natalie out of Verde City!

When Cedric arrived at the hospital, Jocelyn had already left. Rebecca had also sent Christina away.

I didn’t expect you to lose two projects in a row!”

“You don’t need to worry about the company’s affairs!”

Rebecca was somewhat displeased with Cedric’s attitude. Although she knew her son was capable

and she didn’t need to worry too much about the company’s affairs, she had seen what was going on

outside. during this time.

“Are you still involved with Natalie?”

That woman was useless to the Johnson family and caused them losses!

Regardless of what Natalie said, Rebecca would ensure she and Cedric never got back together!

Her tone and gaze were a bit assertive. After finally driving that useless woman away, she wouldn’t let

her

back into the Johnson family!

In terms of attitude, she became slightly more assertive.

Cedric frowned, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll return to the company.”

“Wait!” Rebecca exclaimed in a slightly irritable tone.

Being his mother, she naturally understood Cedric’s temperament. As usual, whenever it involved

Natalie,

he would act like this.

It was evident he hadn’t let go of Natalie.

“I’ve talked to Joyce. I told her to set up a time for our families to meet. It’s time to settle your affairs!”

Cedric was silent.

“You should be aware of her father’s position here in the city! If the bidding for the two projects had

been next year, do you think Premier Garden and Apex would have had a chance?”

The more Rebecca spoke, the angrier she became.

However, there was a hint of gloominess on Cedric’s face.

You’re still the same. You still like using those kinds of underhanded methods! Cedric sneered.

With that, Cedric stood and headed for the door.

Suddenly, Rebecca started crying.

“Yes, that’s how I am! I know this approach is not sustainable, but Ced, how your grandmother and I

managed to keep all of this… Have you forgotten?”

Cedric remained silent.

Forgotten?

Certainly not!

Cedric narrowed his eyes, concealing the sharpness in his gaze. Some things would never be

forgotten,

even if he wanted to forget.

Rebecca looked at Cedric’s retreating back and sensed the change in his emotions.

*Joyce has liked you for so many years. Why wait for someone who doesn’t love you? Why not find

someone who loves you wholeheartedly?”

Didn’t love him?

These words shook Cedric’s heart fiercely.

Natalie didn’t love him?

Rebecca wanted to say more, but Cedric left without another word!

As he left, his departing figure looked gloomy in the cold corridor.

Cedric didn’t remember how he got out of the hospital.

Sitting in his car, he impatiently lit a cigarette. Just then, his phone buzzed.

He initially didn’t want to answer, but he did when he saw it was a call from Isaac.

“Hello”

“I just discovered something interesting”

“What is it?

It’s Natalie!

Isaac had no idea what Cedric’s mood was like right now.

Natalie?

Was she again with another man?

In Cedric’s mind, any news about Natalie recently must be related to some man. Since she proposed

the divorce, men from all walks of life have been constantly appearing in her world.

Men were like that!

Although society advocates gender equality, in a man’s heart, he would still be uncomfortable if his

woman had excessive contact with another man.

Cedric was a typical traditional man, and Natalie’s current behavior undoubtedly pushed him to the

limit.

“What happened to her?” Cedric asked in a seemingly nonchalant manner as he took a drag of his

cigarette.

In reality, he had been thinking..

About how to deal with Natalie!

It seemed like she had grown a backbone. The more he tried to control her, the more she wanted to fly

free.

It was a major headache for Cedric,

Natalie was right. Even now that they were divorced, Cedric still thought of her as his!

It wasn’t a matter of being unused to it. He simply wouldn’t allow her to leave his world.

What did a divorce certificate matter? It was just a piece of paper.

Isaac sounded like a gossipy girl on the other end as he said, “Seriously, I never expected her to be

capable of such feats, you know?

Capable of such feats?

Hearing such words, Cedric automatically thought about inappropriate thoughts.

But those thoughts vanished when Isaac continued, “She’s the new CEO of Slyvan Gems!”
