A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 355 Has to Accept That Child

When Natalie arrived at the office, Wendy approached with a massive stack of documents.

As Natalie gazed at the mountain–like pile of files, it reminded her that it was the beginning of the

month when an endless stream of documents needed handling.

“Wendy.”

“Yes, Ms. Walker!”

“Book a flight for me three days from now to Snow City, secretly,” Natalie instructed.

The image o

of Cedric appearing at the school gate with Kayla flashed in her mind. It made her realize that this

unpredictable man might not leave Simeria anytime soon.

Not only that, but he also planned to enroll Kayla in school here.

With this situation, Natalie naturally couldn’t allow her child to return to Simeria.

When Natalie had told Cedric there wasn’t any child between them, he still insisted on pestering her.

So, if he found out about the child, Natalie’s peace would undoubtedly be disrupted even more!

“Yes, ma’am!” Wendy nodded, a bit sympathetic toward Natalie. Natalie would surely be working late

for

these three days at the company.

Natalie immersed herself in work, and in the morning, Jason arrived. She was too occupied to entertain

him. Jason mentioned that a renowned plastic surgeon had come to Simeria and wanted her to find

time

to meet.

Natalie replied dismissively, “What’s there to be afraid of when my scars are always covered?”

She seemed indifferent to the scars and didn’t have any intentions to have surgery for them.

But wasn’t she being too insensitive about it?

“I’m telling you, you’re beyond help!” Jason didn’t know what to say to Natalie anymore.

Annoyed, Natalie retorted. “Can’t you see I’m busy?”

With her plans to go to Snow City, she wanted to finish all her work immediately. It left her no time to

deal

with Jason

Seeing her impatience, Jason stood up and said, “If Mr. Jarvis asks me to look for another doctor for

you,

you’re on your own! I can’t be bothered anymore”

Jason was usually a polite gentleman, but he was irritated by Natalie’s attitude.

Natalie just smiled as Jason left.

She buried herself in the files once again. By lunchtime, she hadn’t noticed how quickly time flew when

one was busy.

“Ms. Walker!” Wendy entered, sounding a

hit tense.

Natalie was engrossed in the documents and didn’t sense the tension in Wendy’s tone.

She simply asked, “What is it?”

“Mr. Johnson is here!”

At the mention of his name, Natalie paused in her actions. She sighed.

Didn’t that man ever give up?!

Before she could say anything, Cedric had already entered with Kayla.

Knowing how much Natalie was affected by Kayla, Wendy couldn’t help but feel that Cedric was either

thoughtless or too domineering!

But would Natalie accept this show of force?

“Ms. Walker.” Wendy looked worriedly at Natalie.

“You can leave,” Natalie said.

“Yes, ma’am.”

After Wendy left, Kayla looked timidly at Natalie, her eyes filled with caution. Natalie understood the

pressure the child felt toward her.

Even so, Natalie’s expression remained unpleasant.

If Cedric was such a great man, he shouldn’t bring Kayla with him! It made her seem like a villain.

“Why are you here?” Natalie’s tone wasn’t welcoming.

Cedric led the child to sit on the side. He said, “Kayla insisted on bringing this for you.”

At his words, Natalie noticed that Kayla was holding a thermos. As Cedric spoke, she cautiously

approached Natalie’s desk, holding the thermos.

She remained silent, just looking at Natalie.

Those eyes. were genuinely pure.

In reality, a ten–year–old understands many things. Therefore, this purity, at this moment, seemed

impure

to Natalie

At the age of ten, Isabella probably harbored nothing but hatred toward her and was already thinking of

ways to plot revenge

Bang!

The thermos slammed onto the carpet, making a mullled sound. The lid flew off, and the dessert inside

spilled out. It was still steaming hot.

The air instantly fell silent, then turned cold.

Kayla looked at the overturned thermos on the floor, then at Natalie. Tears overflowed in her eyes, and

she turned and ran toward Cedric.

Cedric picked up the child in his arms.

Natalie was frustrated by the man’s icy expression.

It was her fault…

She had accidentally hit it while reaching for the file…!

Looking at Cedric’s cold gaze, the apology got stuck in her throat and turned into a chilly silence.

What was there to explain? How many misunderstandings existed between her and Cedric? What was

one more?

Cedric glanced at her coldly. He stood up and walked away with the child without looking back. The icy

footsteps seemed to indicate disappointment in her.

“Tsk!” Natalie scoffed coldly.

The irritation on her expression grew as she watched the man leave.

When Wendy entered, she saw a mess on the floor.

“Ms. Walker!”

This was…!

It was the thermos Kayla had been holding. What happened? How did it end up on the floor?!

Clearly, she wasn’t pleased about seeing Cedric and Kayla here.

Wendy was stunned momentarily and then said, “But… Mr. Jarvis said we shouldn’t stop Mr. Johnson if

he

came over.”

“Uncle did?”

“Yes.”

“But that was before he had Kayla, Natalie snapped.

That was right.

At that time, due to Irwin’s influence, Natalie understood what Stephen meant–it was to make it look

like something was going on between them for Irwin to misunderstand.

The crucial issue now is that Irwin is no longer here, and there was the added complication of Kayla.

“Yes, ma’am!”

Wendy understood Natalie’s implication and thought Cedric was really unreasonable in this matter.

Natalie was furious.

She was already lacking time, and now she couldn’t have lunch due to Cedric’s disturbance.

ok Kayla to

In the afternoon, Cedric personally school, then was summoned to Lotus Villa by Stephen.

In the study, the atmosphere was tense.

Stephen said solemnly, “Ced, you know what kind of person Nat is. Don’t make it too difficult for her.”

Although serious, Stephen’s words were still relatively polite, indicating that he wouldn’t completely

sever ties due to the cooperation between the two in Wexford.

However, Heather in Snow City had been calling him continuously. She had shifted from simple

concerns.

about Natalie’s well–being to cursing Cedric whenever she called.

Stephen was also troubled. Although he didn’t explicitly say it, his words were a reminder to Cedric

If Cedric persisted in choosing Isabella at this point, he shouldn’t make things difficult for Natalie.

Natalie wouldn’t willingly coexist with anyone related to Isabella

“Mr. Jarvis, I’m sorry, but Nat….

Cedric trailed off and paused.

When he looked at Stephen, his eyes were intense.

“She has to accept this child, and there are reasons she must do so.”

Stephen’s expression instantly darkened upon hearing this,
