A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 194

Chapter 194 Playing Victim

Though the remaining kidnapper was currently overseas, Natalie had her eye on him. She was determined to find the person no matter what means necessary.

The private investigator reported, “I’ve essentially determined the general direction. I’m narrowing down the search now. Rest assured, there won’t be any mistakes.”

This implied that the kidnapper was likely surrounded by the private investigator’s people.

Natalie finally felt a bit relieved in her heart.

Taking a deep breath, she said, “You’re doing well. Time is of the essence.”

“Don’t worry.”

The voice on the other end sounded confident.

After hanging up the phone, Natalie felt her world calm again. She didn’t want to do this and even

disdained to do it all.

But since those people insisted, she had no choice but to be ruthless!

After Natalie informed Stephen about everything, everything was overturned in an instant as she had

expected!

When Cedric came to pick her up after work in the evening, Natalie stood before her own car and coldly

said, “It’s time for me to return to Elegance Bay!”

“Natalie!”

“This game should end.”

A game? Do you think this is a game?”

“What else could it be? You’ve been playing this domineering game lately, Mr. Johnson. Should I foolishly assume that you care about me, and that’s the reason you can’t let me go?”

Couldn’t let go?!

She couldn’t be that significant In Cedric’s heart, right?

Ishe was, she wouldn’t have ended up so miserable in her previous life!

In this life, Cedric had yet to make such an unforgivable choice. However, if Isabella truly insisted on taking her eyes, Natalie believed Cedric would still do it without hesitation.

Natalie didn’t doubt this at all.

The man looked at her with a storm raging in his eyes.

Before Natalie could react, Cedric had reached out and pulled her into his arms.

“Natalie, I underestimated you. You really dare!”

Natalie’s l*ps curled up into a smile when she heard this. She could guess that things at Johnson

Enterprise were chaotic now.

“Why wouldn’t I dare?”

Did he really think she would let him control her forever?

In her past life, she was indeed under his control. There had been no escape for her. In the end, she event

went blind.

Even if she needed to risk her life, she wanted to break free from this man.

Now that she had such solid support behind her, why should she still let him bind her?

Being imprisoned by Cedric wasn’t such a straightforward matter of just being physically restrained. He was practically holding her soul captive.

“Hah! I really underestimated you before, hmm?”

“You did more than that. Your days haven’t been well, right?”

“It doesn’t matter. With you suffering alongside me, I’m fine!” With that, the man forcefully shoved her into the waiting Hummer.

Natalie struggled but to no avail.

“You’re a lunatic, Cedric!”

Isn’t this what you wanted? To drive me crazy after telling your uncle?”

Natalie was silent.

re okay, Let’s go crazy together. We’ll see who loses their mind first!”

Mostre shomelessl

“Yes, I am!”

Natalie felt stifled!

Her mood, which had finally improved a bit, ruined by Cedric,

as now c

Vivan saw her, h

In the end, Cedric brought Natalie to his office. When Yuvan saw her, his eyes darkened.

He approached and greeted respectfully, “Mr. Johnson.”

Looking at Natalie, he said automatically, “Ms. Walker.”

Natalie was silent.

Everyone here called her Madam, as per Cedric’s instructions. However, Yuvan seemed to express some displeasure in his eyes, which she hadn’t noticed before.

She couldn’t recall offending him.

Or did she…?

Thinking about the night Isabella went to the Johnson Manor with Yuvan by her side, Natalie instantly

understood.

In the art of seducing men, Isabella was truly like her mother!

Hearing Yuvan address her as Ms. Walker, Cedric shot him a warning look.

Yuvan, seemingly oblivious to this signal, continued like nothing was wrong. He said, “Mr. Phelps has

returned. He’s waiting for you in the lounge.”

Isaac!?

Cedric’s face darkened at the mention of Isaac. He had been trying to contact Isaac for a while now, but

there had been no response.

Undoubtedly, Cedric had always believed that Isabella’s failed surgery would never have happened if

Isaac hadn’t left.

To put it bluntly, he held some resentment towards Isaac for Isabella’s situation.

Now that Isaac was back, Cedric wasn’t planning on treating him kindly.

Head in first. Wait for me there”

“Watch her! If she leaves, you’ll all be fired!”

With that, Cedric strode towards the direction of the lounge.

Natalie stood still, her eyes turning cold.

This damned man…!

“Madam, please go inside,’ a secretary approached and said in a trembling voice.

Johnson Enterprise paid high salaries, and the secretary didn’t want to lose her job.

After the secretary spoke, two icy glances were directed at Natalie–one from Yuvan and the other from

Natalie herself.

When Natalie looked at the secretary, her attention stayed on Yuvan through the corner of her eyes.

In the end, she didn’t say anything. She just stepped into the office.

Yuvan brought in coffee.

“Please enjoy,” he said, still respectful in tone.

However, Natalie could sense something else under it.

Raising an eyebrow, she called after Yuvan, who had turned around, “Wait.”

“Is there something you need, Ms. Walker?”

Ms. Walker?

He was the only one who didn’t address Natalie as Madam!

Natalie’s l*ps curved into a mocking smile. “I don’t recall ever offending you, have 1?”

It wasn’t that she cared much about being addressed as Madam, but Yuvan’s attitude was annoying.

Yuvan’s expression changed subtly.

“You’re overthinking it,” he said, looking at Natalie.

“Oh?

t’s nothing.

what do you mean? Is it for Isabella or for Christina? Natalie’s tone sharpened:

an looked at her, his eyes showing no fear. There was even a hint of disdain as he looked at Natalie,

Was this an open challenge?

Natalie stood up. She picked up her coffee and splashed it all over Yuvan’s face.

“Since you want to display such an attitude, I’ll give you a proper reason to hate me!”

Yes, hate!

In Yuvan’s eyes, she could clearly see the hatred he had for her!

“Ms. Walker!” Yuvan hissed through gritted teeth.

Natalie said, “What? Not intense enough?”

“You…”

“Is it because of Isabella?”

At this moment, Natalie finally understood. Even though Isabella wasn’t by Cedric’s side, there seemed to be quite a few people speaking up for her.

Yuvan’s face darkened, and a trace of disThis content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
