A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 404 Retribution

Natalie stood still, refusing to turn back.

A chilling aura emanated from her, and she said in a voice colder than before, “I’ve said it before. Whatever suffering you all endure is your own retribution!”

Having said that, Natalie continued walking without waiting for Cedric’s response. Cedric remained where he stood, enveloped in an icy coldness.

Natalie’s words echoed relentlessly in his mind, threatening to tear apart his sanity once more.

“Retribution…” He murmured softly, a suffocating feeling gripping his heart.

Retribution?

Was it not enough retribution after they had lost their lives?

Why wasn’t that enough?!

Cedric felt a stifling ache in his chest.

Meanwhile, having retreated inside, Natalie found it hard to regain her composure.

She once never believed in such things, yet here she was.

And then there was Cedric.

Would there be more?

She never imagined that such bizarre things would happen in this world.

The history between Cedric and her seemed fated, from another world to the present.

She looked at her sleeping daughter, gently touching the soft little hand. This child, in this life and the last, felt like a gift from the heavens.

How could she ever…?
