A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 88 Giving the Best to Isabella

Natalie was surprised that such a significant event was something she only learned from her uncle.

Even during all these years of marriage, Cedric had never mentioned this to her. She hadn’t heard anything about it from anyone in the Johnson family either.

“This happened when he was ten years old, and he almost died,” Stephen explained.

Natalie’s heart tightened as she heard this.

No wonder Cedric had never told her about it. It wasn’t a pleasant memory, and he probably wished he

could forget it forever.

“At that time, Isabella’s brother saved him. Cedric survived, but Ivan didn’t,” Stephen continued.

Natalie was taken aback.

Ivan had died?!

Was that why…?

“Nat, be careful with the Johnson family. Why don’t you come back to Simeria?”

According to his analysis, the Johnson family probably still didn’t know about Isabella, except for Cedric.

He likely had been too preoccupied with Natalie’s constant arguments to find the right moment to inform the family.

Ivan had been the Johnson family’s benefactor back then. As Isabella was his only sister, the family would naturally support her. If the entire Johnson family sided with Isabella against Natalie, her situation in Verde City could become very dangerous.

Stephen was deeply concerned, so he urged Natalie to return to Simeria.

Natalie considered his advice, then took a deep breath and asked. “But how is this incident related to Isabella’s hatred for me?”

She felt the intensity of Isabella’s hatred but couldn’t see the connection between it and Ivan’s past.

At the moment, we don’t have all the details. You need to come back to Simeria first, Stephen insisted.

While Natalie understood his concems, she had many ongoing commitments in Verde City. She had taken on numerous projects, and prematurely ending them would cause significant issues.

Eve accepted multiple contracts here in Verde City. Even if I were to return to Simeria, I’d have to

“Well…” Stephen hesitated.

It was a complicated situation. While he had previously encouraged Natalie’s career, it wasn’t easy to halt

ongoing commitments.

At the very least, Natalie had to wait until all of her current collaborations were finished before she could leave the country. Also, their work was far from something that could be wrapped up by just starting a job and signing contracts today, the longest project completion time was at least three years.

The shortest ones still require at least a year.

Natalie had a lot of commitments in Verde City for the next year, so she didn’t want to leave!

Stephen insisted. “I’ll find someone to take over your work, and you can return to Simeria now.

‘Uncle!

“Yes?”

“I hope that once everything is clear… Well, you understand what I mean, right?”

Why would she leave Verde City now?

To run away?

That wasn’t her style!

Stephen sighed, “Do you mean to say…?”

“Uncle, do you know what Isabella has done to me or what Cedric has done?

She wanted to understand the reasons behind their actions, and she wouldn’t take these losses lying.

down!

“I understand,” Stephen responded.

Although he was concerned for Natalie, he also saw it as a test. Being the heiress to Regal Horizons International wasn’t just about having strong work capabilities.

After all, many things could happen in a person’s life.

For Natalie to be a qualified manager, she needed extensive management experience and a well– rounded

Stephen’s personal b*dyguard?

Natalie considered, “Do you think it’s necessary?

Natalle thought the security in Verde City was pretty good. Even those people wouldn’t….

No, they would!

Hadn’t they done so in her past life? 1

So before Stephen could respond, she changed her mind, “Actually, that’s a good idea.”

Having Leon around wouldn’t hurt.

After ending the call with Stephen, Natalie’s mind was filled with thoughts of everything he had told her

about the relationship between Isabella and Cedric.

It turned out that there was another layer of hidden connections!

She was also grateful that she had divorced Cedric at this time.

With Isabella’s intense hatred for her, staying married to Cedric would have caused many problems.

She spun her phone in her hand and eventually called Cedric. She hadn’t been the one to initiate contact with him much during this period.

But now…

She felt that she should make the first move.

‘Hello,” Cedric’s low and hoarse voice came from the other end of the line.

Natalie said, “I want to see you.”

Now?” he asked.

Yes, now.”

Clearly, the man on the phone hadn’t expected Natalle to ask to meet at this time, given her recent

Avoidance of him.

“Alright. I’m on my way,” she said before hanging up

Natalie packed the items that Karina had given her into her bag. She hesitated momentarily, thinking about Stephen’s words on the phone about Isabella’s relationship with Cedric. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

It was clear to her that Isabella held a special place in his heart. It was one that no one could replace, not even Natalie, despite him loving her for ten years.

In other words, it was between love and obligation.

And during this time, he… had chosen to fulfill Ivan’s debt of gratitude all along.

When Christina returned home, she learned that Cedric and Natalie had finalized their divorce.

Of course, she was thrilled. At this point, she was ready to put an end to her hostility with Natalie.

“But in the future, treat Isabella better, okay?” Christina’s joy was short–lived as Rebecca whispered in her

ear.

Christina was stunned for a moment, unable to believe her ears.

She must have been hallucinating; otherwise, why would Rebecca say such a thing?!

“Mom? W–what did you say?”

She didn’t quite catch it.

Rebecca gave her a displeased look, but there was a hint of tenderness in her gaze.

Her tone was gentle as she repeated, “I said, be good to Isabella.”

This time, Christina heard her clearly.

“Why?” Christina put on a completely baffled expression, hiding the storm raging inside her eyes. She kept

all well hidden, but her heart was in turmoil.

Having followed Rebecca for so many years, she had a pretty good understanding of how things worked.

Isabella had quite a few tricks up her sleeve, didn’t she?!!

This was even more cunning than what Natalie was capable of.

Damn it, she had known that woman wasn’t simple.

“Because, for our family, Isabella is the one we owe the most to. It wouldn’t be considered excessive

even if we give her the best we have.” Rebecca said with a touch of melancholy in her eyes.

Christina was stunned, “Give the best to Isabella!?”
