A Divorce After My Rebirth

Chapter 444 You’re in for It

“Level the playing field?”

Irwin’s words seemed too casual. He played with a strand of her hair. It had a pleasant scent, evident from the slight satisfaction on his l*ps.

Natalie and Cedric felt like a continuous trial, with every encounter bringing its set of challenges. The Johnson family had given her enough trouble, and just when things seemed better with them, Cedric’s actions dragged her into turmoil.
