A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 189

Chapter 189 Her Trust

Between Natalie and Cedric, it might seem like Cedric is exerting pressure on her, but in reality… no one was more frustrated than Cedric at this moment!

Natalie continued with her daily routine. She went to work, attended meetings, and dealt with Cedric!

In the office, Natalie’s landline rang.

She answered, “Hello.”

“It’s me.” Irwin’s gentle voice came through from the other end of the line, and it warmed Natalie’s heart.

“You’re back?” Natalle looked at the number on the caller ID and recognized it as Apex Global.

“Yeah. Shall we have lunch together at noon?” Irwin suggested. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“Sure!” Natalie hesitated for a moment but eventually agreed.

Originally, she shouldn’t be meeting Irwin like this now, but things have changed for her.

Setting aside other matters, she wouldn’t allow her professional interaction with Irwin to be reduced.

If Cedric couldn’t even understand this point, then she…!

After hanging up Irwin’s call, Natalie picked up the internal line.

“Hello?”

“Come to my room, please.”

“Yes, ma’am.

After hanging up, Zane quickly entered the office.

You were looking for me?”

handed him a piece of paper with two numbers written on it. One was the number Christina used

pontact her in the past, and the other was the kidnapper’s number she had gotten from the private

han two numbers.

From when?”

Natalie closes her eyes and said, ‘Before and after Isabella was kidnapped.”

Originally, these matters should be handled by a private detective. However, assigning it to Zane was also to let Stephen know what was happening on her end and how she felt about things.

Zane nodded.

“Also…” Natalie pauses for a moment.

Zane stopped, waiting for her to continue. In the end, Natalie wrote down the bank account number she had lost long ago and handed it to Zane.

“I want to check the recent transactions on this card–where it was used and when. I need all the details.”

“Is this your card?”

“Yeah.”

“You lost it?”

“Yes.”

“Why didn’t you report it?” Zane asks directly.

Natalie’s heart sank.

She had considered reporting it before. But if she did, whoever was targeting her would continue to do so.

At that time, she was still unsure of what they were intending to do. Now, the situation was different. She

knew what they were doing.

“How can I catch them in the act if I report it lost?”

Zane understood. The contents of this card were too significant.

“Go ahead,” Natalie instructed.

Yes, ma’am.

After Zane left, Natalie rested her chin on her hands. There was a hint of gloominess in her eyes.

alle hadn’t wanted to resort to this….

Christina had to blame someone, it should be Cedric. She should also blame herself for not stopping

could.

In Natalie’s past life, the interactions with Christina shouldn’t have led to deep–seated resentment. The only resentment Natalie had should be towards Cedric and Isabella.

But now, things had changed!

There were some people and matters that required her to retaliate. Otherwise, they would think she was

easy to bully.

Since they wanted to settle things between them, that was fine!

She would do it all together with them!

Now, Natalie was not the only one making moves. Cedric had also started to act.

Verde City was secretly turbulent, and no one knew what significant events would happen next.

However, Natalie has always known that the people surrounding her are not ordinary.

She closed her eyes, concealing the sharpness within them!

When it was noon, Cedric was planning to pick up Natalie for lunch.

However, Natalie called him first and said, “I’m having lunch with Irwin.”

“Natalie!” Cedric hissed through gritted teeth in anger.

Undoubtedly, Natalie’s actions now are an unlimited challenge to Cedric’s patience.

How bold of her!

Natalie said, “I’m currently working on a project with him. You better get used to me having meals with

other men anytime.”

“Heh! Cedric sneered..

This woman was truly bold!

However, it genuinely made Cedric upset.

In the past, she would patiently wait for him at home.

Now, she was socializing even more than him.

“And also…” Natalie ignored his mocking tone and continued, “You better not interfere in my dealings with him. Otherwise, I’ll only have more meetings with him”

With more troubles in the project, the number of meetings to resolve them would naturally increase

She really knew what Cedric was thinking. Just moments ago, he really wanted to…!

“Where are you eating?”

“Why do you care?”

After saying this, Natalie directly hung up the phone.

were both extremely stubborn. The more he tried to restrain her, the more she struggled fiercely.

There was absolutely no honesty between them!

In the office, Cedric was frustrated. Lucas came in to see Cedric looking irritated.

“Mr. Johnson!” Lucas called out cautiously.

Cedric asked, “Tell me, what’s the point of her working? Isn’t it better for her to go shopping, watch

movies, or visit a beauty salon?”

The more he thought about it, the more irritated Cedric was.

What was happening now? Even when he wanted to have a meal with his wife, he needed first to check if

she had any social obligations.

Lucas scratched the back of his head, clearly unsure, as he answered, “Madam doesn’t seem to like those

things, even before this.”

Lucas‘ remark reminded Cedric of something.

He used to give Natalie a generous monthly allowance. He practically handed her several cards to spend

however she liked.

Yet, she rarely had major expenses. The luxury items she had were mostly gifts from him.

But since she started working, it was like she had found a special joy in it. If he had known earlier, he

This seemingly Inconspicuous woman had turned out to be quite a valuable talent.

“By the way, Mr. Johnson, I’ve retrieved the call logs,” Lucas said as he handed them over to Cedric.

Cedric had to admit that Lucas worked fast. He presented the information to Cedric in the shortest amount of time possible. He surpassed even Yuvan in terms of work efficiency,

Cedric examined the call logs closely. In just a few glances, he noticed an issue.

“Go and investigate this number,” he instructed, referring to the number Natalie had Zane look into.

“Yes, sir.” Lucas nodded. Then, he picked up the number and left.

When Cedric was alone in the office, he stared at the number intently. It seemed vaguely familiar, but he

couldn’t recall who it belonged to.

Didn’t he see it on Natalie’s phone?

At that thought, he narrowed his eyes. His heart… also tightened!

He glanced at the number again…!.
