A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 234 Won’t Give In

Leon looked at her. From the silence in her eyes, he could sense her unspoken resilience and

stubbornness.

She wouldn’t surrender, even if the whole world abandoned her now.

She would continue to do what she needed to do.

Cedric had pushed her to this point for Isabella and Christina, intending to keep her imprisoned forever.

Yet, she refused to admit defeat.

“What do you want to do? I’ll take care of it for you,” Leon didn’t directly answer her question, but the

implication was evident.

She couldn’t have any contact with the outside world right now.

Natalie didn’t know why Leon was an exception.

“Just call Zane and tell him to carefully compare the previous documents,” she said.

“Yes, ma’am.”

“Also, tell him to go to the relevant agency to check the signing time on my handwriting with the time.

below!”

Despite the interrogations, Natalie remained clear–headed about what she needed to do.

She would continue denying those so–called evidence. She would investigate it on her own!

Cedric had won. He had isolated her and made it impossible for her to escape.

Still, she wouldn’t yield to his wishes.

“I understand,” Leon said with a nod.

Hearing Natalie speak like this eased his concerns. The silence when he mentioned Cedric preventing

her from getting bail had worried him before, fearing she might lose hope.

As Leon was about to leave, Natalie stopped him.

“Wait.”

“What’s wrong?”

“What’s the situation with my uncle now?”

They couldn’t reach him, and Natalie felt something was off. Since the identification report, her

relationship with her uncle had become strange.

She was sure that Stephen was definitely not neglecting her.

Her surroundings now seemed shrouded in mystery, and she couldn’t see through it.

Leon frowned and said, “It doesn’t seem to be going well on his end.”

From what Leon knew of Stephen, the latter had never faced significant challenges in his life.

Suddenly,

such a significant event occurred, and it involved his own daughter.

Stephen had single–handedly built Simeria’s business empire yet had failed to protect his daughter’s

sweetheart.

How could he not be in pain?

Hearing that Stephen wasn’t well,

She felt heartbroken.

infall ellent.

And this only added to her resentment towards Cedric.

In the evening after work, Cedric initially didn’t want to leave the company. But after receiving a call

from

Scarlet Villa, he hurriedly went back.

Lucas drove, and Cedric urged him to run several red lights on the way.

When the butler saw Cedric return, he approached with a solemn and respectful expression, “Sir,

you’re

back.”

“Where is he?”

The butler had mentioned someone on the phone when he called Cedric.

“The person has escaped.”

“Is she okay?”

“Fortunately, Lily was with her, so nothing major happened.”

“What did security say about this?”

Cedric’s tone became increasingly stern, and there was danger in it.

*Security says it was a thief.”

A thief?!

A sharp glint flashed in Cedric’s eyes as the butler finished speaking. Scarlet Villa’s security system

was

tight–how could an ordinary thief get in?

How easy for them to say such a thing, huh?

Thinking about the morning call, a cold light flashed in Cedric’s eyes.

The butler continued, “Ms. Morgan was frightened and hasn’t come out of her room until now.”

Hearing this, Cedric glanced at the stairs, his hostility intensifying. In the end, he didn’t say anything

and

went upstairs.

Lucas was still gathering information with the butler. In just one day, there were many incidents around

Cedric.

When Cedric decided to bring back Kyle, Lucas felt something was amiss. Now, with this incident,

even. though he was mentally prepared, he couldn’t help but stiffen and be on guard.

Cedric went upstairs and arrived at Isabella’s room. Lily was there, and she breathed a sigh of relief

when

she saw him.

“Sir, you finally came back.”

“What happened?”

“Ced.”

Before Cedric could speak, Isabella called out to him. Her voice was weak and filled with fear.

It was evident that Isabella was truly scared.

Hearing her voice, Cedric walked forward. Lily quickly stepped aside, giving space to Isabella and

Cedric.

“I’m here.”

Cedric’s voice was incredibly gentle as he held Isabella’s slightly cold hand in his warm palm. When he

felt her trembling, a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.

“The person wasn’t a thief. He definitely wasn’t a thief,” Isabella uttered incoherently, clutching Cedric’s

hand as if grabbing a life–saving straw.

Cedric reassured, “I’ll look into it.”

“He didn’t ask anything and just….

Isabella’s face turned pale at the memory of the person’s intentions.

Cedric tightly held her hand and soothingly whispered, “It’s okay.”

But in the next moment, before he could react, Isabella had already nestled into his embrace..

He instantly stiffened, and instinctively, he wanted to push her away.

However, considering their current relationship and the responsibilities he was about to fulfill, his raised

hand hovered in the air and ultimately encircled Isabella’s delicate waist.

“It’s okay, I’m here.”

“Ced, I’m so scared. Even though I couldn’t see, I could feel the danger from that person!”

Since she truly lost her sight, her perception of the surroundings became particularly acute. So, her

feelings wouldn’t be wrong.

At this moment, she felt helpless and frightened.

However, Cedric seized a crucial point–she couldn’t see.

Why couldn’t she see?

Because of Natalie.

A cold light flashed in Cedric’s eyes when he thought about why Isabella had lost her sight, and his grip

around her tightened.

After finally calming Isabella and making her fall asleep, Cedric came out and went straight to the

study.

where Lucas was waiting.

“Have you found out?”

Cedric got straight to the point.

Lucas looked serious and handed Cedric screenshots from the security footage. The figure was

securely

It was definitely not the thief described by the security.

“You can leave,” Cedric said after looking at the photos. His eyes were stone cold.

Lucas nodded and turned to leave. However, just as he reached the door, Cedric stopped him.

“What’s happening on Stephen’s side? Any actions regarding Natalie?”

“No, all his focus is on Ms. Jarvis.”

“Okay.”

Walker

“One of Ms. Walker’s assistants, Zane, is conducting a signature comparison for her.”

“A signature comparison?”

“Yes, sir.”

“Heh… So, she’s not giving up yet.”

A cold light flickered in his eyes, and his tone became sharper and more sinister.
