A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 327 Imminent Crisis

Watching Natalie turn around, her firm and distant figure seemed to carry a hatred transcending lifetimes.

Even if it required a thousand different methods, they must separate!

Thinking of the hatred brought about by another life, Cedric stiffened. He stood in place with a hint of hurt in his eyes.

Was Natalie really the same as him? Had she really come from another lifetime?

Lucas glanced in the direction Natalie left, then approached Cedric and said solemnly, “Mr. Johnson, that person has called three times personally. He hopes you’ll return to Wexford immediately!”

tone.

This reminder instantly brought Cedric to his senses.

Indeed, that person…!
