A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 256 The Stubborn Girl

Time flew by like a swift shuttle.

A massive fire had altered the lives of all those involved.

Two years later, the world’s top tier commercial speech event in Simeria dazzled everyone…

Lucas hurriedly entered Verde City Prison to see Cedric. Two years had transformed the man into

someone cold and steady.

“What’s the matter?” Cedric asked with an icy tone upon seeing Lucas.

It had been two years.

Since the day Rebecca left, Cedric hadn’t met anyone else apart from those from the company.

In the meantime, Rebecca had tried numerous times to reach out, but Cedric rejected every attempt.

He

even turned away calls from Simeria.

Lucas had visited countless times during this period, but his serious expression now was a first.

Cedric thought something might be wrong with the company.

“It’s not about the company,” Lucas sa d as she shook his head.

Cedric frowned, “Then what?”

Lucas looked at him with complex emotions in his eyes. Obviously, the unexpected news had left

everyone at a loss for words.

When Rebecca had first learned of it, she didn’t know how to break it to Cedric. It was beyond

surprising.

and it was downright… hateful!

In the past two years, Christina had been sentenced to prison for life, and Cedric had paid a heavy

price.

Yet, the person who was supposed to be dead…..!

It was a deception.

A blatant deception!

“Just leave it if you’re not going to talk, Cedric said, about to hang up.

“Wait,” Lucas stopped him in time.

There was obvious impatience in Cedric’s eyes.

After a moment of contemplation, Lucas gathered his courage and said, “Ms. Walker is still alive!”

The air fell silent instantly.

For a long time, even though they were separated by soundproof glass, it felt like they could hear each

other’s breaths.

Cedric’s eyes went through a storm of emotions but eventually calmed down.

When he looked at Lucas and spoke, his mind was still buzzing, as if he couldn’t hear his own voice.

“What did you say?

Who wa

Who was still alive?

He must have misheard.

Lucas looked at Cedric and said slowly, “Ms. Walker, sir, Natalie Walker!”

At that moment, his mind seemed to explode!

It felt as if the entire world collapsed and rebuilt itself, repeating the process over and over.

sa

The world was in chaos. It was a tangled mess.

Natalie… Natalie!

It was a name It was a name Cedric least wanted to recall in the last two years. Yet, her face lingered

in his mind, and

her smile was frozen in the sea of fire.

His heart thumped wildly and beyond his control.

Lucas‘ words about her being alive echoed in his mind repeatedly.

“She’s… alive?” Cedric finally spoke after a long silence.

He looked at Lucas, who was on the other side of the glass, to confirm that he hadn’t heard wrongly.

Lucas nodded. “Yes, sir.”

“But she seems to be with Mr. Frazier!” Lucas added, clearly reminding Cedric that time was limited.

All the chaos in his mind settled on the crucial point: Natalie was alive!

Natalie, Natalie…!

The name that kept him awake through countless nights behind iron bars.

It was the most painful yet unforgettable memory. It was a name that haunted him like a nightmare,

entwining him like a curse.

Simultaneously, it was the name he couldn’t let go of–the name that tortured him into wanting to forget

everything.

Her departure two years ago became a deep abyss he couldn’t escape. But now, Lucas’s message

was

like a scorching sun, instantly illuminating that dark pit.

Natalie’s name was his demon and his redemption…!

“She’s alive?”

“Yes, sir.”

“She’s with Irwin?” Cedric chuckled, a mocking and mad glint in his eyes

The residue of time in his eyes gradually lightened, revealing uncontainable joy and a hint of craziness.

Two years. It had been a full two years.

Two years ago, he went mad in Simeria, like how he had gone mad in his previous life, keeping her by

his

side until the end.

He had lived with her urn at Scarlet Villa, awaiting justice’s judgment…/

And during that time, what was she doing…?!

She was alive and living well in Simeria while he suffered pain in Verde City caused by her supposed

departure.

He must have looked like a fool to her–one trapped in her shadow and unable to break free, even

resorting to endless extremes.

“Heh… Natalie, how great of you!”

Bang!

Cedric slammed a fish into the soundproof glass. His eyes were filled with anger and madness upon

hearing that Natalie was alive and with Inwin.

Get up!

Fiercely, he said to Lucas, “Handle it immediately!”

“Yes, sir!”

Upon hearing these words, Lucas instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew this news would surely.

make Cedric take action.

Two years.

During the

two years, Natalie didn’t die, yet Cedric suffered all the pain she should have endured. He

had rejected any special treatment, refusing any kindness.

However, who would have thought that while he was in despair, she was safe and sound…!

Regardless, this was undoubtedly good news for him.

Natalie…! That stubborn girl! Just wait, he would deal with her!

He was clearly angry, but the tears at this moment were mixed with laughter. No one knew how he had

endured these two years, the pain constantly gnawing at his heart

Now, the news Lucas brought was like a healing balm, instantly dissipating the pain in his chest and

igniting an immediate desire to tear Natalie apart!
