Natalie winced in pain. She raised her hand and slapped Cedric in the face.

The already tense atmosphere became even more stifling.

Cedric’s hand shifted from her jaw to her delicate neck, and his breathing was harsh.

“You’ve been acting strange all day. Explain yourself.”

At this moment, Cedric finally realized that Natalie wasn’t just playing around.

She had always been composed and knew her boundaries. If it were just a tantrum, she wouldn’t have

pestered him like this, especially after he had ignored her in the morning.

Natalie glared at him. She held his wrist and said, “The clerk’s office closes in twenty minutes. We

should handle the paperwork before it does.”

“Natalie Walker!” The man’s breath was unsteady with frustration.

Natalie forcefully pulled his hand down, pushing him away. However, he remained steady as a rock and

unmovable. Natalie could do nothing else but glare angrily at him.

Cedric eventually lost his patience and decided to take her home. There was no way he could go to

work after today’s commotion.

On the way back, the driver struggled to maintain control of the car, a testament to the intensity of

Cedric’s anger.

Upon reaching home, Natalie sat on the couch, and Cedric sat opposite her.

“Can we talk now?”

“We have nothing to talk about,” she replied.

Talk? What was there to talk about? He had been involved with his personal assistant for the past six

months, and the whole world knew about it.

Had he given her any explanation?

The man’s sharp gaze bore into her. Natalie turned her head away, refusing to look at the man whose

temples pulsated angrily. Her indifferent attitude only seemed to make his gaze sharper.

“Natalie, no man from the Johnson family has ever divorced; there have only been widowers.”

Natalie trembled slightly. She looked into the man’s eyes, which were filled with complex emotions and

anger.

So, was this the reason he had burned her to death in her past life?

With a trace of coldness in her eyes, she said, “Fine. Either you can be the first divorcee in your family,

or you can go to hell!”

Cedric was speechless.

He stood up, and the air around them felt colder. He looked down at Natalie, emanating a strong sense

of dominance.

Natalie fearlessly met his gaze, her infuriating expression pushing Cedric to his breaking point.

He finally turned away.

Continuing this conversation might lead him to lose control and strangle her.

Natalie watched him walk away. Even if it was just his back, it had once given her an immense sense of

security.

But now…

“Wait,” Natalie called out to him.

Cedric paused but didn’t turn around. “You should calm yourself. Don’t contact me until you figure out

how to talk to me.”

Thinking about the people’s reactions in the conference room, he genuinely wanted to dissect her mind

and see what she was thinking.

He had never imagined she would bring up divorce. For the past six months, she hadn’t questioned the

rumors circulating outside.

Now, she was suddenly talking about divorce!

He attempted to leave again, but Natalie spoke up from behind. “If you dare to step out that door today,

I’ll take Bianca to see that woman in the afternoon. Her name is Isabella Morgan, right?”

This time, Cedric was thoroughly provoked.

He turned around instantly. At that moment, he almost wished he could tear her to pieces.

Natalie also stood up. She crossed her arms and looked at Cedric.

She knew that divorcing this man today was impossible.

But as for Isabella, she would be abducted tomorrow. Since she couldn’t get a divorce, Cedric had to

stay with her today.

If the blame were going to fall on anyone for this mess, it would be him. After all, he was the one who

had caused it!

“You’re quite something,” he remarked.

She dared to threaten him. What a truly unruly woman!

Natalie responded, “Two can play this game!”
