A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 129 Expelled from Verde City

To Stephen, marriage meant responsibility to the family, the children, and the woman.

Stephen treated Heather exceptionally well. Despite any temptations throughout the years in Simeria, he

never wavered.

That was why he felt that Cedric had committed an unforgivable sin by hurting Natalie. She was his wife,

and he was supposed to protect her. Even if Natalie was more important to him in his heart, harming his

own wife for the sake of another woman was a grave offense in the world of men.

“I can rest assured now that you see things clearly,” Stephen said with a hint of approval.

Did Cedric care about Natalie?

Whether he did or not was his own business.

Stephen had worried that Natalie might make mistakes, fearing that she might soften her heart because

of Cedric’s feelings.

“I thought you were going to start lecturing me.”

But now, he stood up and waved his hand dismissively. “Perhaps he cares for you deep in his heart, but

the other woman occupies too much of his world. You can’t handle a relationship like that.”

Indeed, the older generation saw through these things. However, Natalie failed to see this clearly in her

previous life. She continued to wait until she truly went blind, and only then did she fully resent Cedric.

It was only when he burned her alive that she finally gave up.

Recalling those times when she was heartbroken because of Isabella’s actions, she now realizes how

naive she was

*Now that you are the president of Sylvan, what are your plans for the studio?”

“I’ll continue to run it,” Natalie replied without hesitation.

Taking over Sylvan Gems was somewhat sudden, and she was bound to have limited energy. But the

studio was her first business, and she didn’t want to close it down so quickly.

“What do you plan to do?”

“I’ll have Karina help manage it for now!” Natalie had observed Karina’s capabilities during this time in the

That also works!” Stephen nodded.

He didn’t object to her words and treated her respectfully. However, Stephen inwardly understood that Natalie had officially begun her journey at Regal Horizons International.

She insisted on stubbornly running the studio now. But as time went on, she would take on more responsibilities. Would she have the time and energy to personally run it at that time?

“Have you been losing a lot of clients lately?” Stephen asked.

Natalie felt a bit embarrassed.

Stephen continued, “You’re really not his match.”

He was talking about Cedric.

Stephen was a veteran in the business world. Even without asking, he knew that Cedric was responsible

for Natalie losing those orders.

“Now that he knows, I won’t need to hold back on taking advantage of our relationship,” she shamelessly

declared.

She used to be reluctant to admit it.

Now, there’s nothing more holding her back!

Stephen looked at her and raised an eyebrow, “You better do well, or how will the studio cover Karina’s

salary?”

That was a valid point!

After learning about Karina’s salary, Natalie was shocked. She never expected that even an ordinary assistant in Stephen’s company would have such a high salary.

If she was going to do this, she couldn’t afford to not pay Karina’s salary!

After deciding to use Stephen’s connections, Natalie fully embraced the opportunity to work. She immediately went to the study to have a conference call with Karina, giving instructions for the next steps

at the studio.

Meanwhile, Isabella had already entered the operating room. Cedric waited outside, still unaware that Isaac was no longer at the hospital, thinking that Isaac was performing Isabella’s surgery.

As for Dr. Landry, he was now under immense pressure inside the operating room.

Three hours later, Isabella was finally wheeled out!

Cedric went up to her, intending to say something to Isaac. But he subconsciously looked behind Dr. Landry when he saw the latter removing his mask.

“Mr. Johnson!” Dr. Landry’s tone was uneasy.

Cedric asked, “Is Isaac still inside?”

“Dr. Phelps, he… he…” Dr. Landry stuttered.

Cedric frowned at Dr. Landry’s demeanor.

The nurse took Isabella to the ward. When only Cedric and Dr. Landry were left in the corridor, Cedric coldly asked, “What’s going on?”

“I performed the surgery. Dr. Phelps was worried about the complications arising and-,” Dr. Landry

explained.

“Where is he?!” Cedric shouted.

Dr. Landry was frightened by the loud shout and broke out in a cold sweat.

“Dr. Phelps said he would explain it to you personally.”

“Explain?!”

What explanation did he need?

Cedric’s expression was gloomy. Suppressing the rage in his chest, he asked, “How was the surgery?”

“Don’t worry, the surgery was very successful,” Dr. Landry said as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Hearing that the surgery was successful, Cedric breathed a sigh of relief.

“Isaac!” he exclaimed angrily before turning and walking away.

As he walked, he dialed Isaac’s number. However, the call went on for a long time without anyone

answering

Cedric was already angry, and now his fury burned even hotter!

Fortunately, Isabella’s surgery was very successful.

When he arrived at the ward, Isabella was still deeply asleep. Cedric looked at her bandaged eyes and

Rebecca returned at this moment. Hearing that Isabella had undergone surgery, she looked a bit guilty.

Ever since she knew Isabella was Ivan’s sister, she had decided to take good care of her. It was.

unexpected that someone like her also knew how to be grateful.

“Was the surgery successful? Rebecca asked Cedric softly.

Cedric nodded, “It was.”

Fortunately, the surgery was a success.

If anything had happened during the surgery, Cedric wouldn’t have spared Isaac.

Rebecca sighed in relief, “Good. That’s good.”

If Isabella really couldn’t see the light for the rest of her life, she would feel even more guilty. Back then, because of Cedric, her brother had at such a young age…!

If Isabella really went blind because of Natalie, she wouldn’t forgive Natalie.

Christina returned and saw Rebecca and Cedric by Isabella’s bedside. At that moment, her delicate features contrasted with the coldness in her eyes. But it was only a fleeting moment; she quickly concealed everything deep inside.

She approached and called out, “Mom, Ced!”

Rebecca turned around when she heard Christina’s voice. She looked at the younger woman with some reproach and scolded, “Where did you go? Didn’t I tell you to stay with her?”

These words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire in Christina’s heart. However, after so many years in the Johnson family, she had long learned how to conceal her emotions.

Holding up what was in her hand, she said, “Isabella said she wanted to eat custard buns from the suburban bakery, so I went to buy them for her.”

This statement improved Rebecca’s mood considerably. “You’re so thoughtful.”

Cedric didn’t say anything. He simply stared at Isabella.

Christina stepped forward, “Ced, you can go ahead. Mom and I will stay here with Isabella. You’ve been working hard during this time.”

“Yeah, you can go back. We’re here with Isabella,” Rebecca assured him.

“Okay.”
