All Chapters of A Divorce After My Rebirth: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

As soon as Natalie returned to Scarlet Villa, she sensed that something was amiss when she walked through the door. Zoe greeted her at the entrance. Her expression seemed somewhat uneasy as she said, "Madam Johnson is here."Natalie raised an eyebrow.Thinking about her attitude towards Rebecca yesterday morning, she feared that the older woman would come in person to confront her at night.She ran her hand through her disheveled hair and walked inside, where she saw Rebecca sitting on the grand sofa with an air of superiority, much like a queen dowager.In her previous life, every time Natalie saw Rebecca like this, she would quickly serve tea and water like a maid. Back then, she was eager to please Cedric's family. She didn't realize that the more humble she appeared, the more they looked down on her.She kicked off her shoes and casually threw her bag onto the sofa."Zoe.""Yes, Madam," Zoe hurriedly entered and respectfully stood by Rebecca's side.At this moment, Nata

Upstairs, Natalie listened to Cedric's yelling at Rebecca. She couldn’t help but feel sad about how ironic the situation was!When they had looked down on her, even refusing to allow her to have Cedric's child, she hadn't uttered a word of complaint in Cedric's presence.Looking back now, she realized how foolishly she had thought that she simply needed to do better, and eventually, the Johnson family would accept her. Since the deaths of her parents and grandmother, she had never experienced the warmth of a family. That's why she had been single-mindedly working to maintain Cedric's family.Her entire focus had been on gaining their acceptance. But in the end, she had been wrong.She closed her eyes, but the sorrow on her face was impossible to conceal.When Cedric came upstairs, he saw Natalie lying on the chaise longue in the room. He approached her and crouched down in front of her, taking her hand. "Nat."Natalie subconsciously tried to withdraw her hand.But the man ti

Rain poured down steadily, causing the water level of the small creek next to the villa to rise.In the piano room, Natalie was playing the instrument, her music harmonizing with the creek’s gentle flow. With her satin-like long hair, the sight of her sitting behind the piano was captivating.Standing outside the door, Cedric couldn't help but exclaim at the sight.The piano abruptly fell silent.Natalie noticed him and gently asked, "When did you come back?""Ten minutes ago," the man replied as he stepped inside. He hadn't changed his shoes, and had been wearing the same clothes for a few days. It was evident that he had been with Isabella over the past few days. At this moment, his deep and piercing eyes appeared somewhat weary as he stood next to Natalie."Did you see what was sent to me in the lobby downstairs?" Natalie asked calmly, without a hint of emotion in her eyes."Why didn't you let someone deal with it?" Cedric questioned.Natalie didn't directly answer Cedric'

The edge of the papers brushed against Natalie's cheek, cutting her skin and leaving a fine scratch on her fair face. She closed her eyes, enduring the pain.Seeing that, Cedric tensed up and instinctively moved forward. But in the next moment, his gaze turned icy. He stopped in his tracks, staring at her with a look of disappointment."You've truly disappointed me," he said.Opening her eyes and studying the disappointment in her husband’s eyes, Natalie's lips curled into a smile. Her silent smile pierced Cedric's heart."Why?" he asked.Little did he know that Natalie was equally disappointed in him when he asked this question.She turned and looked out the window, listening to the sound of the rain hitting the leaves, as well as the sound of the running creek. She used to love everything here, and had always thought this would be her home till the end of her days.But she had been wrong. Not too long ago, he had just professed his belief in her. But within half an hour, he

Natalie assumed that Cedric wouldn't be back for a few days. To her surprise, he returned reeking of alcohol after ten at night.While drying her hair with a towel, she came out of the bathroom and spotted Cedric, who was still wearing the same clothes he had gone out in earlier.Dressed in a bathrobe, a hint of coldness flickered in her eyes, and even her legs were tense. She turned and walked away without sparing him a glance. Evidently, she was heading to another room because even sharing the same space with him right now felt suffocating."Stop!"She had only taken a couple of steps when she heard him call out in a chilling tone from behind her. That presence felt like it could tear her apart.In her previous life, she had been heartbroken when she heard him speak to her in such a tone. But now, Natalie was calm, even in regards to his affair with Isabella.However, she had her pride, especially regarding the matter of divorce.In the past, whenever she caused a scene, she w
