A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

When did his fear of letting Natalie know about Blair start?

He knew...

He always knew about Cedric's feelings for Natalie. Over the years, he had been exploiting those

feelings.

Back then, Cedric drove him crazy!

And he wanted to make Cedric feel that madness completely.

Did Cedric truly taste this bitterness now?

However, Irwin felt no relief in his heart!

"Does he know?" Irwin asked.

He was referring to Cedric's awareness of Blair.

Dylan frowned. After a moment's thought, he said, "I think he's known for a long time."

After all, if he didn't know, how could he be so deeply moved by Natalie?

On the other hand, even if Irwin had fallen for Natalie, it was only because of the obsession in his heart.

That obsession would always overshadow them.

That obsession had also blinded him.

Now, it was all out in the open!

He wasn't just angry. He was also in turmoil.

The only time he felt peace... was when he was with Natalie!

"He's known for a long time..." Irwin murmured these words softly.

At this moment, no one knew what turmoil was raging in his heart.

Cedric...!

Since he knew, then why...?

There was no doubt that the magnitude of that incident between them was proportional to its impact on

Irwin, as was evident from these years.

The impact that incident had on Irwin was almost lifelong.

Under such profound influence, if Cedric were to tell him about the agreement and understanding

between Blair and the old man, then Irwin...!

There was no need to guess what the outcome would be, right?

"You're dismissed."

In this instant, Irwin seemed to have straightened out all the twists and turns.

As he closed his eyes, he hid the sharpness and coldness in his eyes.

Dylan knew that although Irwin had begun to suspect what happened in the past, Irwin was

undoubtedly shaken when faced with the truth!

"Then, I'll be leaving," Dylan said solemnly, looking at Irwin with some concern.

After Dylan left, Irwin was alone in the study.

The moment he opened his eyes, endless coldness shimmered in their depths.

Yet, his whole body exuded an unspoken desolation.

"Blair..."

When he murmured the name again, there was no warmth in it.

There was only endless coldness. -

Dylan left the study and saw Natalie lying on the recliner as he passed by the courtyard.

A complicated glint flashed in his eyes. He approached her and asked, "Is there still no improvement at

all?"

When Natalie heard Dylan's voice, she smiled and said, "That's right."

Although Dylan was one of Irwin's men, he had helped her a lot when she was single-mindedly focused

on building her business while waiting to divorce Cedric.

So, despite her dissatisfaction with Irwin and Cedric, she had never been unfriendly towards him.

When Dylan heard her answer, the complicated glint in his eyes deepened.

He wanted to say something, but he couldn't find the words. Finally, he sighed and left.

At the man's sigh, Natalie frowned!

The wind was picking up, and Lydia came out. "Miss, shall we go inside?"

The weather in Yuloria was like this, warm and sunny one moment, chilly and windy the next. Most

people couldn't adapt to such weather.

Natalie nodded, and Lydia helped her up.

But just as she was about to take a step, she felt someone wrap an arm around her waist, and a crisp

scent came over her.

Natalie fell silent.

It was Irwin!

Wasn't he in the study just now?

He carried her inside.

When they arrived indoors, he sat her down on a chair. Xyla had gone to make Natalie her favorite fruit

tea.

Natalie sat in the darkness, keenly aware of the heavy atmosphere emanating from the man.

Natalie's expression turned cold, evidently impatient!

Irwin also sensed her mood. "What can I possibly say to you?"

The words carried a hint of helplessness and bitterness.

She couldn't see, but she could clearly sense people's emotions and breath.

"You don't need to say anything!" Natalie said.

"Let's get married."

Natalie fell silent.

Irwin's sudden words made Natalie's head buzz!

Married?!

In fact, ever since leaving Verde City, the topic of whether they would get married in Simeria was

everpresent.

If Natalie hadn't found that photo in Stephen's study, they... probably would have been married already!

The photo of him and Cedric had planted the seed of doubt about Natalie getting married to Irwin.

When Irwin first came to Yuloria, he mentioned marriage.

What was Natalie's response then?

"Do you need something in Wexford that only my father can provide?"

In Natalie's mind, Irwin was a calculative man. He had manipulated Cedric for so many years and

ensnared her in it.

She didn't believe this man truly loved someone or truly wanted to... marry someone!

Marriage was his tool for self-interest.

And she, the daughter of the Jarvis family who had Stephen's support, was the object he needed to

use.

"Hmph!" Natalie snorted coldly.

Irwin's heart sank continuously.

Finally, he erupted.

"Natalie, can't you stop suspecting everything?"

Yes, she was suspicious.

She suspected that Stephen was useful to Irwin, and that was why the latter was proposing to her.

Natalie emanated an icy coldness around her.

Without waiting for her to speak, Irwin continued, "Right now... you have to marry me!"

At least, she had to marry him before going back to Simeria.

"What? Soft tactics didn't work, so now you're resorting to force?" Natalie said.

She smiled, but it was a smile that stung the man's eyes!

The suffocating feeling in Irwin's chest intensified!

He took a deep breath.

"I don't care what you think. If you want to go back to Simeria, you must marry me."

With that, he turned and left.

His hurried footsteps sounded more like he was fleeing.

He walked into the courtyard, and the scent of bamboo made Irwin's chest feel slightly better. He took a

deep breath and looked up at the sky.

In his life, he had never been in such a wretched state before!

Not even with Blair.

He and Cedric both owed Natalie. So this time... they should pay her back.

He couldn't bring her back to ten years ago, but at least he could let her pass this time peacefully.

Inside, Natalie felt a chilling cold all over her body!

"Miss." Lydia looked at Natalie with concern.

Obviously, she didn't expect Irwin to make such a strong demand.

During this time, Irwin had been patient with her, but now...!

Before Natalie could speak, Lydia suggested, "Should we call Sir?" She was referring to Stephen!
