A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 836 Give Me Custody of the Child Cedric stood at the corner near the school gate, a secluded spot where few could notice his presence. Almost every day, he | would come to this place and watch Luna from afar as she arrived and left school.

But today... it was different.

Usually, either Austin or Natalie would personally drop off Luna. But today, it was just the driver and nanny.

What was Natalie up to? And Austin? Was it possible that Austin no longer cared for the child after such a long act? The thought of Luna suffering in Natalie's presence churned Cedric's insides.

Natalie and Austin were interrupted by a commotion outside, and Cole's voice called out, "Lord Austin!"

| Ppt "What's going on?" Austin was beside Natalie, and he "frowned deeply at the interruption; his expression as dark as thunderclouds. At that moment, even Cole, who was | outside, could sense the annoyance in | Austin's tone.

Anxiously, Cole replied, "Mr. Johnson is here!" Austin's silence spoke volumes, and Natalie's face turned sour.

Cedric? Again? After all, the last person she wanted to see in the world was Cedric. Yet, like a persistent specter, he always found a way to assert himself in her life, no matter the circumstances.

It seemed they would have to consider leaving Dawnvale after all. Luna hadn't started primary school yet, so a change of environment wouldn't affect her too

| of much. While Austin hadn't entertained the thought, Natalie had already started considering it.

Cedric's presence was akin to a curse for her.

d "I'll check it out." Austin resigned himself to the situation, | knowing that Cedric wouldn't leave easily if Austin didn't meet him today. Natalie's face darkened even further at Austin's reply.

Seeing her distress, Austin kissed her gently on the forehead and whispered, "We'll continue this tonight." Natalie blushed furiously at his words, her dissatisfaction fading momentarily. If there were a hole to hide in, she would gladly disappear into it now.

"You should go!" she muttered, unable to meet Austin's eyes.

Seeing her like this, Austin smiled

warmly. At that moment, his dissatisfaction vanished.

' No matter what Cedric did now, it wouldn't change Austin's relationship with Natalie. This petite woman was his.

f Whatever happened in their world, Natalie would always be Austin's wife.

When Cedric saw Austin descend the stairs in his dressing gown, he instantly stiffened as if struck by lightning.

Instinctively, he glanced behind Austin.

At that moment, he finally realized the most comprehensive problem before him.

Natalie was already Austin's wife! Things between Cedric and Natalie, and even their past, seemed irreparably damaged.

Why?

| How did things end up like this between them? What time was it now? Why were they still asleep? What exactly happened between them last night?! f {Natalie used to be completely his, and now she lay beside another man at night...! Cedric's throat tightened at the thought.

"Where is she?" he demanded.

"She hasn't woken up yet," Austin replied calmly.

Cedric fell silent. Upon hearing those few words, his already tense heart clenched even tighter.

Natalie was Austin's wife. Since they were husband and wife, what happened between them was inevitable! So why was he...? "Tell her to come down now!"

| ort Cedric's tone was stern, and he was gritting his teeth. He couldn't control his anger, and he absolutely dared not think about why it had come to this.

When Cedric finished speaking, Austin |" furrowed his brow.

I As Austin sat down, his robe was slightly open. When Cedric saw the scars on Austin's chest, his mind was thrown into chaos.

No words could describe how Cedric felt at that moment...! Natalie... Natalie! "I'm sure she has nothing to discuss with you now! Whatever you have to say, you can say it to me!" "And if it concerns Luna?" Cedric's already unpleasant tone worsened as he looked at the man who had become Natalie's husband, seemingly taking charge of everything for her.

Austin's attitude only fueled Cedric's anger.

"Austin's expression darkened when-he heard Cedric's words.

"Of course!" At that moment, Austin's tone was deep and carried an undeniable authority.

Austin also held authority over Luna's matters...?! ""Fine! Give me custody of Luna!" Seeing Austin assert his authority, Cedric's attitude also hardened.

Cedric had never considered taking custody of the child before, but now that he fully accepted Natalie's relationship with Austin, he wanted to take Luna away.

Why did he want to take her away? Since Natalie had decided to marry Austin, Cedric believed they should have their own children.

So, this was what truly letting go felt like! As Natalie stepped out and stood at the "corner of the stairs, she just happened to hear Cedric's words. Instantly, her expression darkened! | { "Who gave you the right to claim custody of the child?" Her tone was sharp.

Natalie was clad in a robe matching Austin's color scheme and descended from upstairs.

Cedric had never acknowledged news of their marriage before. Even if they were married, he believed it was just a facade.

But in Westhill Enclave, their own residence, who did they need to put on a show for? So, everything they were showing him was real! The thought of all this being real made Cedric's heart numb, and it clenched even harder...!

Natalie glared at him sharply as she walked towards Austin, who took her hand and embraced her.

At that moment, Austin's dominance over the situation was even more |" apparent.

I Cedric fell silent, and his eyes were filled with endless chill! The guilt and pain faded away, and only anger remained.

"I'm Luna's father!" "Oh, are you? I'm her mother, but I wasn't aware of that!" Natalie looked at Cedric, speaking each word deliberately.

Cedric was speechless.

It was ironic...! Everything between them seemed so ironic now.
