A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 371 Responsibility and Burden

Tuming around, Clyde returned to Stephen’s office.

Stephen observed Clyde holding the thermal container Natalie had carried.

“What did she say to you just now?”

Clearly, Stephen had seen everything through the blinds.

Thinking of the words Natalie had whispered in his ear just now, Clyde’s expression darkened.

“You guys found me, yet you don’t believe me?”

Stephen stiffened at his words, and then he sighed.

Taking a deep breath, he spoke with some helplessness, “You need to understand her. She’s been

under a lot of pressure since she returned two years ago. Everything around her is unfamiliar, and she

has become extremely cautious.”

Clyde furrowed his brows. After arriving in Simeria, he investigated every member of the Jarvis family,

including Natalie.

In Verde City, she had been like a caged bird. Cedric had taken care of her since college. She was a

housewife who had struggled to stand on her own feet after being betrayed by her husband.

The bitterness and pain involved in this process were only known to those who had experienced it.

However, Natalie didn’t stay down for long. She had moved fast and stood taller than anyone else in

her

situation.

Especially in the last two years when Stephen’s health wasn’t good, she almost single–handedly

shouldered everything.

Only in the dead of night, when she could remove the disguise she wore during the day in front of

others. and put on her cute pajamas, could she show her vulnerability in her own space.

About Wexford…” Stephen hesitated, looking at Clyde with uncertainty.

Clyde’s brows furrowed even more deeply.

He then said, “I’m sorry.

Stephen was silent, and his heart tightened when he heard Clyde’s words.

Clyde continued, “I’m afraid I can’t share her burdens in all of this.

Cly!

“I can understand your concerns, but I’m sorry!”

Sorry?

Sorry for what?!

Clyde had grown up in Wexford since he was little. Although the memories of Wexford were not

pleasant for him, it was still where he belonged.

Stephen had not dared to tell Heather about what he knew until now.

But hearing Clyde apologize, Stephen understood that Wexford… was Clyde’s sky, where he had

forged.

his wings with his own strength.

He had grown accustomed to soaring in a place like Wexford, and the decision to come to Simeria this

time was already a decision he wouldn’t usually make.

If Stephen wanted Clyde to stay in Simeria, it was simply impossible!

However, Stephen couldn’t help but try when he thought about Natalie.

tis

“What she wants most is to spend more time with her child. Knowing that there’s someone like you, she

seems to have found someone to rely on.”

Indeed, when Natalie learned about Clyde, it seemed like she had found someone to rely on.

If Natalie discovered that Clyde didn’t intend to stay in Simeria, Natalie would not be happy!

Clyde added, “As your daughter, she has responsibilities and burdens she must bear!”

Stephen was silent.

Responsibility and burden!

A hint of profound pain flashed in Stephen’s eyes!

When Natalie met Bianca at Orchid Pavilion, she saw that the latter’s head was wrapped in heavy

bandages. At that moment, her heart clenched painfully!

Her eyes immediately reddened.

Bias

Natalie approached and took Blanca’s hand. When she spoke, her voice choked involuntarily.

Bianca nestled into Natalie’s petite arms.

She…!

No matter how strong and unyielding she appeared in front of Malcolm, Bianca was still a woman who

needed someone to rely on…!

She fought against Malcolm with all her might, refusing to submit even if she was covered in injuries.

But the moment she saw Natalie, she just wanted to seek solace in Natalie’s embrace, desperately

wanting to be enveloped by the meager warmth it offered.

Natalie held Bianca tightly. At that moment, her moist eyes were filled with anger. When she spoke

again,

her tone was noticeably colder.

“Did Lord Malcolm do this?”

“No, I fell accidentally.”

“You’re lying. You’ve never fallen, even when wearing ten–centimeter high heels. Why are you so prone

to

falling now?”

Last time, when Cedric showed her Bianca’s photo, he had said she needed five stitches on her head.

What about this time?

“Nat, please don’t ask anything. Just hold me like this, okay?

“Bia!”

*Just pretend you didn’t see my injuries. Let me maintain some of my dignity, okay?” Bianca’s tone was

weak, with a pitiful plea.

She wanted Natalie’s support, but at the same time, she hoped Natalie wouldn’t ask anything.

Hearing Bianca’s words, Natalie probably understood what was going on. Even though she didn’t know

the details, she knew that Bianca was fighting back against Malcolm with all her strength.

“I’ll arrange for you to leave!” Natalie said hoarsely.

She couldn’t let Bianca stay in Malcolm’s hands any longer. If this continued, Natalie genuinely feared

that Bianca might not survive!

“I won’t leave!”

“Biar Natalie’s tone became urgent.

Bianca said, “Nat, do you know? I’ve lost everything. He destroyed everything. I won’t let him get away

with it!”

Natalie was silent.

At this moment, Bianca’s tone was filled with hatred, a kind of fury that wanted to tear Malcolm apart.

To Natalie, Bianca was a woman who stood in a high place and shone brightly. Her light illuminated the

hearts of everyone, offering redemption and liberation to those suffering in marriage.

She wouldn’t hold grudges but would use her innermost sense of justice to defend the victims in

marriages.

How could someone like her be trampled upon?

She would hate…!

So, what exactly did Malcolm do to her?

“Bia, can we leave first?” Natalie’s tone carried a plea.

Malcolm was too formidable!

Even with the combined force of Stephen and Natalie, they would need to navigate through numerous

complications and not resort to direct confrontation when against a formidable presence like Malcolm.

How could Bianca possibly contend with such a figure? So, even though Natalie angrily considered

Malcolm as the damned man at this moment, she also didn’t want Blanca to seek revenge at this time.

It was like using an egg to strike a rock a truth Natalie understood very well.

“Natalie, don’t you understand yet?

“What?”

“I can’t leavel”

At these words, Natalie’s mind went blank!

Yes, Bianca couldn’t leave!

Previously, despite Natalie’s best efforts, Blanca was ultimately brought back by Malcolm!

Even if Bianca wanted to leave now, she definitely wouldn’t involve Natalie.

Last time, when Natalie tried to help her, she faced all sorts of trouble because of that man.

Up until now, Natalie probably still didn’t know how long Stephen had been dealing with this matter.

The key was that, in the end, Bianca couldn’t leave. Malcolm brough her back. Malcolm wouldn’t let go

of Faye’s grudge so easily, so no one could help Bianca in this matter.

“But you’ll die at this rate!” Natalie felt like she was suffocating, especially now as she held Bianca in

her

arms.

The roughness of the bandage on Bianca’s head served as a constant reminder of how terrifying

Malcolm

could be.

“Don’t worry, I won’t!” Bianca said.

Even if she had to die, she would make sure to drag that man down with her!
