A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 81 Divorce Might Not Be the Best Option

Cedric was growing increasingly disappointed as he looked at his mother.

She had once been a kind and caring person!

When he was young, she used to take him to the orphanage to help other children. She had adopted

Christina, whom she treated like a biological daughter all these years!

“Why have you become like this?” Cedric eventually said in a tone filled with disappointment.

His shift from anger to speaking in such a disappointed tone left Rebecca stunned.

Anger had clouded her judgment. At that moment, she suddenly returned to her senses and realized what she had said in her anger.

She closed her eyes and shoved away the rage in her heart.

As expected, people shouldn’t give in to anger. When they did, they would become strangers to themselves.

She took a deep breath and said, “Ced, I understand her situation, but you can’t do this. Do you understand?”

What would he do?

Would he care for her for a lifetime?!

Having a disabled daughter–in–law in the Johnson family was something she couldn’t handle.

Cedric remained silent and stared at Rebecca.

Rebecca continued, “Have you forgotten how your father and I have come this far over the years?”

The Johnson family hadn’t had it easy.

After the old patriarch’s passing, how did the other branches of the family treat them?

The Johnson family’s business nearly collapsed.

Back then, Cedric was exceptionally talented. Rebecca secretly agreed to several marriages, which helped the Johnson family gain stability!

It was also during that time that she realized and enjoyed the benefits of arranged marriages.
