A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 332 Lord Malcolm’s Past

Stephen looked at Natalie and said, “In fact, Lord Malcolm wasn’t like that in the beginning.”

When she heard Stephen’s words, Natalie raised an eyebrow. It was obvious she didn’t want to talk

about

this!

In her opinion, Malcolm was not even a bit redeemable…

However, Stephen said he wasn’t like that in the beginning.

She was curious.

“So, how did he used to be?”

“He was calm, reserved, and indifferent. He was also sophisticated and dignified.”

Sophisticated and dignified?

Natalie couldn’t connect those words to Malcolm at all.

He had called Blanca by a number–74.

How could Natalie not understand the meaning behind it?

Until now, Natalie felt that Malcolm’s humiliation of Bianca was detestable.

“All his changes began because of a woman in Verde City.”

“Faye?”

“Yes.”

Natalie’s heart felt heavy. It seemed that she now knew the true nature of the hatred between Malcolm

and Bianca.

To Malcolm, everything that happened to Faye started because of the lawsuit she had lost. He thought

that Bianca fought an unscrupulous lawsuit against her conscience!

But was it really true?

“I didn’t tell you before because I knew things between Lord Malcolm and her wouldn’t end so easily

Helping for a moment doesn’t mean we can help for a lifetime!”

was allent

Her already unpleasant expression became even more uncomfortable when she heard her uncle say

this.

In that case, Malcolm and Bianca were in for an unending struggle?!

Natalie felt a headache coming on when she thought about this.

“If Lord Malcolm didn’t hold such a deep grudge, why would he come after her the way he did? He’s the

Entes family’s sixth son. He didn’t need to bother about someone insignificant like her.”

At that moment, Natalie didn’t know what to say.

She always thought that the tragedy began because she brought Bianca to Simeria

But after hearing Stephen’s explanation, it seemed that Malcolm would eventually have found her even

Blanca didn’t come to Simeria.

It was just a matter of time.

“We’ll just wait for Leon’s call,‘ Natalie said after she took a deep breath.

if

Natalie wasn’t interested to know how Malcolm used to be. All she knew was Bianca’s state when she

had been by his side.

Her vacant eyes, her injuries, and even her number–all of it were evidence of the humiliation inflicted

by

that man.

Even if Malcolm was once an angel, it wasn’t worth forgiving him.

Stephen nodded. “Regardless, you’ve done your best for her this time and paid a heavy price. This is

the

only time you can do this. There can’t be another!”

Stephen’s tone was serious. His words were a warning and a reminder that Malcolm was not someone

to

be messed with.

Just this once… was already the limit.

So, Natalie couldn’t do anything more.

Natalie glanced at Stephen silently and nodded slightly.

Seeing her in this state, Stephen couldn’t help but worry.

There’s one more thing Stephen thought for a moment, then looked at Natalie with a serious

expression.

“What is it?”

Seeing how grave the older man looked, Natalie swallowed harshly

Stephen thought for a moment and said, “Rebecca is here.”

Rebecca Carter.

Natalie already knew. She hadn’t wanted to say anything about Rebecca’s arrival, but why did Stephen

bring it up now?

Before she could speak, Stephen continued, “No matter what happened between you and Cedric, Irwin

is

not your first choice.”

Natalie was silent.

Not her first choice?

Stephen had highly valued Irwin back then and trusted the latter a lot

Natalie frowned and asked, “Did something happen?”

Stephen and Irwin were close friends. Whatever happened between them must have been severe

enough

for Stephen to lose his trust in Irwin completely!

That was it–Stephen didn’t trust Irwin anymore.

Because without trust, Stephen wouldn’t feel comfortable entrusting her to Irwin.

The serious glint in Stephen’s eyes intensified when he looked at Natalie.

“There are still some details which are unclear, but he and Cedric attended the same school back in the

day. I’m sure Irwin only went there because he had something planned!”

“Something planned?”

“Yes.” Stephen nodded.

Natalie was speechless.

So, there really were some grievances between Irwin and Cedric back then? What exactly happened

between them?

Natalie and Stephen had vast resources at their disposal, and the school was quite big and well–

known.

Even so, why couldn’t they find anything about the animosity between Irwin and Cedric?

Despite their entanglements, they appeared to be strangers.

“Are you saying Irwin attended that school just because of Cedric?”

“It’s highly likel

Stephen could tell from how close Cedric and Irwin had been standing in that photo.

So, what really happened behind the scenes became even more intriguing.

Stephen looked at Natalie and said, “Regardless, until everything is clear, keep a distance from Irwin.”

“Okay, I understand.” Natalie took a deep breath and nodded. However, the heaviness in her heart

persisted.

She had trouble seeing clearly through the people around her, and as she now recalled Irwin’s past

protection…

She couldn’t help but wonder if Irwin had ulterior motives every time he saved her back then.

Thinking back, she realized that Irwin always appeared just in time to save her from the danger

approaching her.

And the fact that he did that… Was it because he had ulterior motives in approaching her, as Stephen

had

said?

“Nat. Nat?”

“Huh?”

Natalie was lost in her thoughts. It took Stephen calling her name several times to bring her back to

reality.

“Don’t let your imagination run wild. I’ll sort these things out as soon as possible,” Stephen said.

“Okay.” Natalie’s response was muted, and Stephen felt somewhat worried.

No matter how often Natalie had asked him, he refused to tell her. He knew that most girls could be

sensitive and paranoid at times.

In this case, Natalie was the same as Stephen.

For example, Stephen immediately lost trust in Irwin when he sensed that there was something

unusual

about him. He then secretly began to Investigate and even told Natalle to stay away from Irwin.

Being a sensitive person, Natalie found it unbearable when Stephen kept silent. It was even more

Uncle

“Yes?”

“In these years, have you found it hard to trust someone?” Natalie’s tone was deep, carrying an

invisible

weight.

Stephen nodded. “Yes.”

Undoubtedly!

Natalie took a deep breath and continued, “How does it feel?”

How does it feel?

“Men usually don’t care much about matters like these.

For someone in a high position like Stephen, finding anybody by his side that he could wholeheartedly

trust was impossible.

However, this feeling was unfamiliar to Natalie. In her world, there were many trustworthy people at

first.

But then, her father, Cedric… They all gradually lost her trust.

So, she couldn’t help but feel at a loss at these feelings.

She remained that way until nightfall.

Natalie stayed in Lotus Villa for a full three days. During this time, no one disturbed her.

In the tumultuous Simeria, the peace around her seemed somewhat odd. But those involved knew that

it

was the calm before the storm.

Just then, her phone vibrated.

She picked it up and glanced at it. It was an unfamiliar number.

She answered, “Hello?”

tensed. It was evident that she thought it might be a call from Leon or Bianca

But this was a Simerian number, and the sight tightened her heart even more.

Malcolm’s voice came from the other end, instantly causing Natalie to freeze on the spot.

“What do you want?” Natalle was naturally unpleasant to him since he was a despicable man.

However, Malcolm didn’t care what Natalie was thinking.

After all, these things were not important to him.

“I want you to accompany me to a banquet tonight.”

“I’m not going!”

“Natalie!” The man’s tone became more solemn after hearing Natalie’s answer.

“What?” Natalie’s rebelliousness surged instantly when she heard the danger in Malcolm’s tone.

She wasn’t afraid of him!

“Do you think she’s safe if she leaves

Simeria?”

The mockery in his words made Natalie uneasy. Considering the man’s terrifying nature, she knew she

had to buy more time for Bianca and Leon.

Otherwise, it would be much harder to rescue Bianca if Malcolm caught her again.

After she calmed herself, she snorted, “What good is a man who threatens a woman?”

Natalie’s tone was firm and confident!

But the next moment, she said, “Have someone send a dress to me!”

As soon as she said that, she heard a light chuckle from the other end of the line. It was obvious that

Malcolm was mocking her at how fast she had given in to his demands.

But Natalie wouldn’t back down… she couldn’t!
