Chapter 22 Her Determination

Currently, public opinion in Verde City was escalating rapidly.

Having experienced it once before, Natalie naturally knew what lay ahead for her, with everything echoing her past life. As long as she remained married to Cedric, those people would never find peace.

Her only way out now was to distance herself…

She suspected that Isabella’s legs and eyes were perfectly fine. Those people were currently trying to drive her insane, believing that Cedric would also demand a divorce.

They would never consider that she, who relied solely on Cedric, would leave of her own volition. So, temporarily leaving Verde City was also a counterattack against them.

“Shall come to see you off?”

“No need. You have your own things to do. And…” Natalie thought momentarily and continued, “If Cedric threatens you because of the divorce, don’t resist it. I have a plan.”

“I’m not afraid of him!” declared Bianca in a noticeably firmer tone.

Natalie rubbed her temples and closed her eyes. “I know you’re not, but I am.”

Ever since Cedric took over the Johnson family, he had been an unpredictable figure to the outside world. If there was one person he had shown warmth to, it was her.

But now…

She didn’t want Bianca to be implicated because of her.

“I will definitely see this through to the end,” Bianca insisted, even though she knew this lawsuit wouldn’t
