A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 391 Tension at the Hospital

By the time Natalie finished her shower, it was almost eleven. The nanny had left, so Natalie placed

pillows around the bed to ensure Luna’s safety.

“Mama, Mama!” Luna gleefully climbed over her, clearly in a delightful mood.

Natalie’s expression softened. “Oh, you. My little princess!”

Luna nestled against Natalie. Whether rolling around in her arms or rubbing her face against Natalie’s,

their joyous interaction was harmonious.

Unintentionally, Natalie thought of Cedric’s tenderness towards Kayla.

Though she held no affection for him, the thought of his affection for Kayla made her uneasy.

Perhaps she felt she always played second fiddle in Cedric’s world. Now, she found herself comparing

Kayla and Luna, wondering if Cedric would prioritize Kayla as he had done Isabella similarly in times of

need.

Based on Cedric’s current attitude towards Kayla, it seemed very likely.

“Mama! Milk!” Luna mumbled sleepily, showing signs of exhaustion.

Natalie cradled her gently, her heart fluttering at the sight of those hazy eyes. Luna was becoming

more and more like….

She felt it was risky for Cedric to see Luna at this stage.

Luna resembled Cedric more each day, and this posed a significant threat while he was in

Simeria.

After preparing milk for Luna, she turned and slept peacefully, presenting an adorable picture. Natalie

covered her with a small blanket, watching as she drifted off.

Yet, with a child so reminiscent of Cedric beside her, Natalie found sleep elusive. She was well

aware of Cedric’s true nature.

If he ever discovered the child….

What would he do?

She didn’t need to imagine it.

Luna used to look similar to Natalie, so she was never worried. But as Luna grew older, the

resemblance to Cedric became evident and worrisome.

In the dead of night, Luna developed a fever.

Panic–stricken, Natalie immediately called their family doctor. After she did that and checked

Without a second thought, she bundled up the child and rushed out.

In the hallway, she ran into Clyde, who had just returned home. Despite his elegant demeanor masking

his fatigue, he furrowed his brow upon seeing Natalie.

“You’re going out?”

The distress was evident in Natalie’s voice.

“Luna’s sick. Her fever’s too high! I’m scared…”

Her voice choked with emotion. She recalled her own harrowing fever at Scarlet Villa and how she had

writhed in pain.

Even as an adult, she wasn’t able to bear the pain.

In that case, how could Luna endure it now?

She couldn’t wait for the family doctor!

Clyde swiftly approached, taking the child from Natalie’s arms and striding out. “To the hospital!”

Clyde’s driver, who had just entered, hesitated for a split second upon hearing the command, But upon

seeing the child in Clyde’s arms, the driver quickly swallowed any words he was

about to say.

He quickly rushed to start the car, with Natalie following closely.

Inside the car, Natalie attempted to hold Luna, but something was gravely wrong. Luna convulsed, and

Natalie could see the feverish redness on her face even in the dim light.

Her temperature was alarmingly high.

“Luna…” Natalie’s voice trembled with fear.

Clyde swiftly removed the blankets and stripped Luna of her clothes. Natalie watched, her heart

pounding in terror.

“You…!”

“Her temperature is dangerously high,” Clyde said gravely, concern evident in his eyes. Such at high

fever could have severe consequences for a child not yet two years old.

Natalie felt her heart pounding painfully in her chest.

Soon, they arrived at the hospital.

Medical staff were already prepared for their arrival. Upon seeing Clyde, they respectfully approached.

“Mr. Yarbrough!”

Without delay, they took Luna from Clyde and rushed her into the emergency room. Natalie watched as

they disappeared, her body trembling with anxiety.

Clyde’s voice was laced with concern. “How high was her fever at home?”

“39.5!”

“Why didn’t you call a doctor earlier?”

He was implying that Natalie should have called the doctor when Luna’s fever started. With such a high

temperature, immediate medical attention was crucial.

“It spiked suddenly,” Natalie explained.

She hadn’t slept much tonight. When she felt Luna’s burning forehead, she rushed to check her

temperature, which escalated alarmingly fast.

Natalie’s eyes remained fixed on the emergency room, her heart clenching in fear.

She was terrified!

“Clyde…”

“I’m your brother.”

Natalie was momentarily speechless. The gravity in Clyde’s voice provided an unprecedented sense of

familial support.

She had grown up as an only child without siblings. Then Isabella entered her life unexpectedly,

bringing more pain than comfort.

Now, with Clyde…

The two exchanged a silent glance.

Soon after, another team of medical professionals gathered at the entrance of the emergency room,

seemingly anticipating someone’s arrival,

Even Susan was there.

When Susan saw Natalie, she nodded respectfully. Then, she positioned herself gravely by the

emergency room door.

Soon after, Cedric appeared, carrying Kayla in his arms.

Natalie tensed up immediately, glancing instinctively at the emergency room door. Clyde looked at

Natalie without much thought when he noted her unease.

Susan took Kayla from Cedric and rushed inside.

Only then did Cedric notice Natalie. The icy chill in his eyes was unmistakable when he saw her

standing beside Clyde.

Avoiding his gaze, Natalie glanced at her phone. Just a quick look revealed numerous missed calls

from Cedric.

Given the circumstances with Kayla, it wasn’t hard to deduce why.

Hospitals had standard emergency treatments given to patients with high fever. So, it didn’t take long

for the medical team to administer fluids to Luna.

“Mr. Yarbrough,” a doctor respectfully greeted as he approached Clyde.

When Natalie saw Cedric looking at Luna, she instinctively stepped forward to block his view.

Her heart felt like it was being squeezed painfully!

She felt like she was about to faint on the spot, but she dared not. She especially didn’t want Cedric to

see the child’s face, especially not in such a vulnerable state.

However, as she moved past him, he suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her back forcefully.
