A Divorce After My Rebirth
Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Urgent Business Trip

Cedric left.

It felt like a fight was about to break out between him and Natalie regarding whether Natalie owed

Isabella anything!

Natalie owed Isabella?!

Ever since Isabella appeared in her world, Cedric had been using the excuse that Natalie owed

her…!

“Are you okay?” Wendy asked when she entered the room, looking at Natalie in concern.

Natalie glanced at Wendy. She shook her head as she snapped back to reality.

“I’m fine. Is he gone?”

“He left a while ago. He looked quite angry.”

Angry?

Natalie sneered.

“Ms. Morgan caused some trouble, didn’t she?” Wendy asked.

“Obviously. It would be unlike her not to take advantage of the situation when she left in such

a disheveled state earlier,” Natalie said disdainfully.

That was a fact.

Even if Natalie had done nothing to Isabella, Cedric would always remember Natalie as the person who

had nearly killed Isabelle in the past

“Isn’t she tired of this?” Wendy remarked.

Isabella might not be tired, but everyone else involved was.

Natalie smiled at Wendy’s words. “What does she have to be tired about?”

“But, Wendy…” At this point, Natalie suddenly looked at Wendy.

“What is it, ma’am?”

“Do you think an illegitimate child should enjoy equal inheritance rights?”

“I don’t think so, but the law might say otherwise,” Wendy replied with a touch of discontent.

Natalie fell silent

Indeed!

After experiencing that turmoil and learning about her parents‘ relationship, Isabella, just like her

mother, shouldn’t have any right to claim any part of the inheritance.

That was Natalie’s opinion.

The possessions of Natalie’s parents belonged to them and should be shared between their family. In

the end, Natalie’s mother settled everything before her death. She had practically used it all on Natalie.

However, Isabella’s mother and Isabella naturally disagreed with that.

Isabella had always believed that the part of the inheritance Natalie used belonged to her!

But for that small amount of money, Isabella had been hysterical for so many years.

Was there something more to it? Or had Natalie underestimated the possessiveness of human nature?

Before leaving, Cedric claimed that Natalie owed Isabella. That serious tone seemed to imply more

than just that inheritance.

But what else was there between her and Isabella, aside from that inheritance?

Natalie recalled Stephen’s words about Isabella not being simple at this moment. Was the inheritance

just a cover for when Isabella initially intervened in her relationship with Cedric?

If that was the case, what deeper purpose did Isabella have?

What motives did she have when she first intervened between Natalie and Cedric?

Everything was in chaos!

Too much had happened during this period, and many things were unclear.

All of it was causing turmoil in Natalie’s mind.

When she finished work that evening, Natalie went straight to Hillside Villa. Since Heather had already

given her the key, she decided to stay there.

Stephen and Heather had a great relationship, and Natalie felt it wasn’t right to continue staying in

Lotus Villa and disturbing them.

She had already thought about moving out before

Things at the company were just too busy, and this time away from work could be considered an

opportunity for Natalie,

As she entered the house, a familiar aroma greeted her.

“Aunt?” Natalie was shocked to see Heather coming out of the kitchen with soup.

Heather smiled and said, “Spend the weekend at Lotus Villa with me. I’ll be here during weekdays.”

“Isn’t that too much trouble?”

Natalie hesitated. If that were the case, she might as well not move out!

But considering Cedric’s current entanglement with her, she wanted to resolve this quickly. So, staying

at Lotus Villa was not an option.

However, if living here meant Heather would be going to and fro so much, Natalie felt uneasy at how

much work Heather needed to put in.

“Not at all. Oh, I have to go now. I have an important banquet tonight. Enjoy the soup!”

“Alright.”

Heather hurriedly left.

When Natalie saw Lydia and Xyla were also present, she felt grateful!

When she returned earlier, she noticed the advanced security system around the area. It showed her

uncle and aunt’s meticulous care before she moved there.

“Miss, Madam Heather has been simmering this soup since the afternoon. Please enjoy it,” Lydia said.

“Okay.”

“I won’t eat anything else.”

Although the soup wasn’t much, Natalie never had a big appetite. Whenever Heather made soup,

Natalie would make an effort to finish it because she cherished everything the older woman did for her.

“Okay.”

Lydia and Xyla didn’t force Natalie, and the soup was nutritious enough for her.

With Lydia and Xyla around in Hillside Villa, Natalie couldn’t neglect her meals even if she

wanted to

If they told Heather about her missing meals, Natalie would surely get an earful from the older

woman again.

Just then, her phone vibrated.

Natalie put down the small bowl in her hands. Glancing at the number, she quickly answered.

“Hello.”

It wasn’t clear what the person on the other end said, but Natalie’s expression changed

instantly.

She spoke first…!”

nervously and even trembled, “Okay, I’ll be right there. Send them to the hospital.

When Natalie hung up the phone, her face had turned extremely pale.

Lydia approached with concern. “Miss, what happened?”

“Quickly pack a few clothes for me. I need to go on a business trip,”

“Now? So urgently?”

Lydia and Xyla were both taken aback.

Natalie pressed her forehead, massaging the throbbing spot. Cold sweat had already formed on her

forehead.

“Now!”

The urgency in her voice was clear.

Lydia exchanged glances with Xyla, silently urging her to prepare things quickly.

Natalie took a deep breath and dialed Wendy’s number. “Arrange a flight for me immediately.”

“Now?” Wendy asked.

“Right now.”

“Okay. Of course.” Wendy sensed the urgency in Natalie’s tone and promptly hung up to make the

arrangements.

Natalie immediately called Stephen, who answered promptly.

Before Natalie could speak, Stephen urgently said. “I’m already arranging the flight. Your aunt is on her

way to the airport.”

“Uncle.”

I know I couldn’t reach you just now, and I assumed you were aware,” Stephen replied.

Okay Natalie choked up.

She hadn’t expected that Stephen was already aware. Moreover, she didn’t anticipate Heather

After hanging up, Xyla brought down Natalie’s suitcase. Although the packing was hasty, there was no

time to worry about that now.

Lydia arranged for a driver to Lake Natalie directly to the airport.

The fact that Natalie suddenly left Simeria with leather caught everyone off guard.
