A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 145 Transformation

The smell of natto made Irwin wrinkle his nose in distaste.

Seeing his reluctant look, Natalie cut a small piece and handed it to him with a spoon.

“I also thought it smelled bad when I first ate this. But try it; you won’t regret it.”

The first time she brought Cedric to eat it, he also refused to open his mouth.

However, she failed to bring down the aloof deity in the human world. Instead, she was the one who

was

brought into his world instead.

“Is this… really edible?”

Irwin, who was originally a bit of a neat freak, was having a hard time accepting the smell, let alone

thinking of trying the taste!

“Try it, and you’ll know!” Natalie said.

Irwin was silent as he looked at Natalie skeptically. Finally, he opened his mouth and took a bite. His

actions were swift and decisive, as if it was a matter of life and death.

“How is it?” Natalie looked at Irwin, wanting to see if he would react differently from Cedric

After all, when Cedric tasted it, he immediately spat it out.

He was basically unwilling even to give it a chance!

Irwin also wanted to throw up at first.

Yes, the taste was so bad that it made people want to throw up…

But when he saw Natalie’s eyes sparkle, he forced himself to taste it.

And then, his initial worries disappeared at this moment.

“Well, it’s not bad!” Irwin said.

Natalie was silent when she heard Irwin’s words, and a touch of bitterness flashed in her eyes,

That’s right. It wasn’t bad.

Would their worlds be completely different now if Cedric had been willing to taste it slightly that time?

After that incident Cedric never wanted to eat the delicacies she recommended.

“What are you doing?” Natalie asked in annoyance when she felt Irwin pinch her face.

“Don’t think about anything else when you’re with me, okay?”

Natalie rubbed her slightly painful cheek.

“You’re really taking this seriously, huh?”

She was talking about their date.

To Natalie, she was just here to appease her uncle. She knew her situation.

Which wealthy family would want her as their daughter–in–law?

Even if the Frazier family’s situation wasn’t as simple as she imagined, being part of a wealthy family in

itself elevated her status.

There were just some things in life that she shouldn’t yearn for, especially if it were a connection with

Irwin.

“Why shouldn’t I take it seriously?” Irwin asked while eating.

Now that he had gotten used to the taste, he thought it was quite good!

Of course, he would only be able to stomach this occasionally. If he had to eat this every day, he

probably… wouldn’t!

The flavor was just too strong.

“You mentioned before that it might not be the best choice for me to divorce Cedric!”

“But you still got divorced!”

Natalie was speechless.

“So, you should also live a new chapter of your life!”

The man’s tone was warm and steady. His mature features gave people an inexplicable sense of

reassurance.

Natalie lowered her head and ate her food.

A new chapter of her life?

She hadn’t really thought about it!

It seemed like the man sensed her thoughts and said, “It was just a divorce, nothing more, You still

have

“Social biases shouldn’t affect you, right?

Social biases?

Natalie had never thought about these things!

What had happened between her and Cedric was enough to keep her away from entertaining thoughts

about her future.

Besides, she was also special.

She still didn’t even know if she was in a dream or reality!

To her, this was an unbalanced world. She didn’t know if she would suddenly wake up and find herself

back in the fire.

How could someone like her have a future?

Did she have the right to talk about the future?

“Natalie!”

“Huh?”

“You’re a woman. You’ve just lost a husband, not your life!”

“But for me, I didn’t just lose a husband!”

What she lost was herself.

Irwin frowned and put down his utensils. Staring at Natalie intently, the usually sharp and perceptive

man seemed to have misunderstood something at this moment.

He asked, “So, you can’t let him go?”

Couldn’t let him go?

Natalie laughed!

There was an inexplicable bitterness in it.

It’s not a matter of letting go or not.

“What is it, then?” The man asked with an inquiring look.

It was as if he could make everything straightforward once he heard it.

Natalie originally didn’t want to talk about it. But looking at the man’s face, she suddenly wanted to

speak.

She recounted everything the outside world had been speculating, and what had happened behind the

scenes during this time.

The more Irwin heard, the sharper the gaze in his eyes became.

In the end, the man’s expression remained serious, but his eyes gained a touch of coldness.

“So, he always believed in that woman?”

“Yeah.”

Natalie felt complicated when Cedric’s belief in Isabella was mentioned. Thinking about what Cedric

said to her at Sylvan Gems today, she felt like she had wasted many years of her life.

He had made it sound so natural, as if she should accept whatever he said or did.

“In his heart, it’s like I won’t be hurt at all. Whatever he says goes, and I have to do whatever he

wants.”

“In that case, don’t continue to hurt yourself!”

What Irwin meant was for Natalie to stop thinking about Cedric, and never consider returning to his

side.

It was over between them.

Natalie smiled bitterly. “You’re right. I shouldn’t have continued to hurt myself.”

She shouldn’t have endured all those years!

When the people in the Johnson family didn’t accept her, she shouldn’t have compromised and stayed

just to endure their treatment.

“How do the people in the Johnson family treat you now?” Irwin asked.

The people in the Johnson family?

All of them should know her identity by now, right?

Natalie shook her head. “They’re fine at the moment. But who knows?”

That was the truth!

Natalie naturally knew what kind of person Rebecca was!

She might look like a seemingly brainless noblewoman, but she was actually quite proud.

Regardless, there was one thing that wouldn’t change!

They would have to meet each other head–on, sooner or later.

“Let’s go, it’s almost time!” Irwin glanced at the time on his wristwatch, not intending to dwell on

Natalie’s topic. “You’re not happy talking about this.”

Irwin spoke the truth.

Natalie was grateful for his consideration.

As they got up, Irwin extended his hand to Natalie in a gentlemanly manner. Looking at the broad and

powerful palm, Natalie hesitated for a moment.

Irwin nudged her softly. “Hmm?”

In the end, Natalie placed her small hand in the man’s palm.

In that moment of warmth, her heart, which had been drifting in the sea, seemed to have gained a bit of

warmth.

But soon after, she snapped back to reality.

On the other hand, Cedric had left the hospital in a daze. Sitting in the car, he smoked one cigarette

after

another.

Suddenly, a WhatsApp message popped up, [Bro, did you really divorce your wife?]

It was a message from Christopher Turner!

Due to their busy schedules, they hadn’t contacted each other for a long time.

tact h

Unexpectedly… They would get back in contact because of public opinion.
