A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 175

Chapter 175 Stephen Was Quite Domineering

Just after hanging up Stephen’s call, Natalie received another call from an unfamiliar number.

When she answered, she found it was the detective agency Karina had recommended before.

“Hello,” Natalie said.

“Ms. Walker, we found what you were looking for.”

“Send it to my email.”

“Alright.”

Upon hearing that what she wanted had been found, a cold glint flashed in Natalie’s eyes. She hung up the

phone, opened her computer, and opened her email.

She examined its contents. As she was reading, the same unfamiliar number called her again. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Is it just a photo?” Natalie asked.

“It’s one of the people involved in Ms. Morgan’s kidnapping.”

One of them?

She had asked before, but Isabella had said everyone was dead.

“Is this person still alive?”

“Yes.”

“Where is he now?”

“He’s at Sea City in Glacial.”

That was so far away!

The photo’s background was a snow–covered area around a glacier, indicating that the climate there wasn’t good. The photo was captured from surveillance footage. It was evident that finding this person wouldn’t be easy

“What should we do now? The person on the other end of the line asked when Natalie remained silent.

Natalie glanced at the photo. “See if you can obtain photos of him in contact with Isabella or Christina.

“Alright, but regarding the cost…!”

“Don’t worry.

The price is not an issue as long as you find what I need.”

Stephen used to tell her not to be petty!

When he had helped her look into Isabella, he already felt that Natalie was being childish. He felt that those things were not worth investigating.

In Stephen’s view, investigating such things was a waste of time. Even responding to those people’s

tactics was a waste of time.

The best counterattack against them was to always stand at a higher position and look down on their

clownish methods.

But Natalie was well aware that these clowns were even more troublesome. Even if she didn’t respond to

them, they would do

lose things t

her.

They were relentless in the shadows.

The only way to get rid of them was to press these people into the mud so they couldn’t climb up again.

Between Natalie and Isabella…

Isabella wished to bury Natalie in the mud, and Natalie was not even willing to acknowledge her

existence!

After work in the evening, Cedric came to pick up Natalie. They went to Scarlet Villa together, and dinner

was already prepared in the kitchen.

It was all still Natalie’s favorite dishes, but simpler than before. Cedric knew she didn’t like extravagance.

“How is it? Does it suit your taste?” he asked.

“Yeah, it’s not bad,” Natalie replied calmly, eating her food with the same calm demeanor.

Observing Natalie’s calm demeanor, Cedric raised an eyebrow and asked, “Did Stephen call you?”

Yeah

“Is he still coming?”

At his words, Natalie’s mood became somewhat unstable. Though she seemed calm, Cedric deliberately

brought it up.

She put down the utensils in her hands and looked at Cedric. “Stop doing anything to Regal Horizons.”

“What do you think will make me stop?” Cedric responded.

“If you insist on compensation for those two projects, tell me which two plots of land in Verde City you.

have your eyes on. I’ll try to get them for you!”

“Do you think any of the two plots in Verde City are as valuable as the eastern suburb?”

“So, this matter will go on indefinitely?”

“Not exactly.”

“Then what do you want?”

Natalie hadn’t considered this before. Cedric’s involvement with the two plots in the eastern suburb had

escalated to this extent.

Now she realized he didn’t care about her having a powerful uncle. If he got really annoyed, he could even challenge her uncle.

When the news broke today, some people said Cedric wanted to reconcile with her again because of her uncle’s identity.

Those people didn’t understand Cedric at all.

Her powerful uncle was now abroad and locked out from Verde City. She still didn’t know how Cedric had done it, and he kept stirring up trouble for Regal Horizon International’s headquarters.

“If you still can’t afford it, then pay with your b*dy. How about that?” Cedric said.

Natalie was speechless.

Bang!

A loud bang echoed as the spoon in her hand slammed onto the table, shattering a wine glass.

Despite her frustration, Cedric appeared calm.

The niece of the Regal Horizons International Chairman is also the designated heiress of the group You’re wealthy, influential, and quite sturdy!

It was no wonder she had dared to challenge him before. Thinking about her previous arrogant demeanor and comparing it to her current frustration, Cedric felt a sense of satisfaction.

“How many times?” Natalie asked angrily. 1

Fine, if he wanted her to pay with her b*dy…

They needed to discuss how many times they were going to do it!

As soon as she asked that question, Cedric’s face darkened.

He stood up and approached Natalie. He placed his hands on the table and the chair she was sitting on,

encircling her in his embrace.

The warm yet chilling air surrounded her, giving off a sense of danger,

Just as Natalie was about to move away, he suddenly embraced her head.

“For the things you did to me, even death wouldn’t be enough. Are you sure you want to talk about the

number of times?”

Natalie was silent.

He wasn’t being overly forceful, but his words carried a substantial threat,

At that moment, Natalie’s heart trembled.

Cedric released her abruptly, and Natalie’s mind was blank.

Then, she glared fiercely at Cedric.

She understood.

This man had no intention of letting her off, and everything he was doing now was far from simply settling

scores between them.

“If you don’t want anything to happen with your uncle, you better behave yourself. Otherwise…” Cedric

trailed off.

He looked at Natalie, whose eyes were filled with intense hatred. The depth of her resentment was clear, and it looked as if she wanted to tear him apart with her bare hands!

This kind of hatred wasn’t just skin–deep; it felt as if it had been brought down through generations.

You spread your wings a little too far, and retracting them might be a bit difficult. But that’s okay. Take your time, hmm?”

Every word that Cedric said had an underlying threat.

Natalie stared at him, contemplating one thought: to escape!

Regardless of whether she seemed cowardly or if it would be useless, escaping this man seemed like it

would bring peace.

However, her rational mind told her that escaping would be futile.

Given Cedric’s current attitude, she had nowhere to run.

“Cedric, what do you take me for?”

“Once upon a time, you were my wife. Are you still willing now?”

“Don’t even think about it!”

“In that case, what do you think you are?”

Natalie was silent.

Anger made her head ache, but she had no way to deal with this man.

Bang! Clang!

In her rage, Natalie threw everything she could get her hands on!

Cedric watched her petulant behavior with a smile playing on his l*ps. “You shouldn’t get angry when eating in the evening. It’s easy to gain weight.”

Thud!

Natalie stood up abruptly, and the chair she was sitting on fell backward.

She had infuriated Cedric before this…

And he was now paying it back to her ten times worse!
