Chapter 74 I’ll Grant Your Wish 

Rebecca was seething with anger. 

The room was buzzing with discussions. 

Cedric stared at Natalie, his eyes filled with icy rage. His clear and handsome face was filled with anger 

towards her. 

Previously, their arguments had always been kept behind closed doors. Even when some of it was 

exposed, nobody knew the full extent of it. 

But now, it was out in the open. 

What was this?! 

Did she truly want to get rid of him so badly, even resorting to such an extreme measure? 

That was how Cedric saw it. 

Natalie had used an extreme method, didn’t she? 

She had done it on purpose. 

It definitely was on purpose! 

Her attitude towards Isabella had always been indifferent, but now…! 

He could see the disappointment and despair on Natalie’s face. There was also genuine hatred in her eyes. 

Cedric wondered what he had done to make her hate him so much. 

He clenched his fists. 

Staring at the small woman before him, he said, “Natalie, go home immediately!” 

Even at this moment, Cedric was making a conscious effort to restrain himself. 

“We’re getting a divorce,” Natalie repeated. 

His concession resulted in her pressing him harder. She knew, all too well, that the divorce proceedings between her and Cedric couldn’t be dragged out for too long. 

Even with Clark as her lawyer, their relationship would linger as long as Cedric wasn’t willing to let go. 

When Rebecca brought JJocelyn along and Cedric invited Isabella to this birthday celebration, Natalie’s 

heart was in complete turmoil. 

Even if it was just a superficial relationship, she no longer 

it with him. She used to be wanted to me 

Indifferent and full of resentment. But now, even if only resentment was left, she didn’t want to continue 

their marital relationship. 

“Divorce her!” 

Just as Cedric was angrily thinking about how to get Natalie to leave, Elizabeth’s voice cut through the 

room. 

With such a commotion happening, she had come over to see this embarrassing scene. 

Theirs was a traditional family, where even in divorce, it was the man who didn’t want the woman. 

In this household, women didn’t have a say, especially a young one like Natalie. 

These past few weeks, Natalie had caused chaos in the Johnson family and in Verde City. 

Now, she dared to create such a scene at Elizabeth’s birthday celebration! 

Elizabeth looked at Natalie with growing loathing. 

“Divorce her!” 

Natalie was just an orphan with nothing to her name. She didn’t even respect her elders properly! She had moved out of the manor not long after her marriage, and she still wasn’t content. 

What more did she want?! 

The more she thought about it, the less Elizabeth liked her. 

At this moment, Rebecca had also regained her composure. 

“Divorce her right now!” 

Now, both sides were unwilling to give in. 

The Johnson family couldn’t stand Natalie. 

Natalie couldn’t stand Cedric, 

As for Cedric, his initial resolve was starting to waver. 

Public opinion was in full swing. 

“You see, Mr. Johnson should’ve never allowed the mistress to attend such an important event openly. I 

think Mrs. Johnson is in the right!” 

The situation was pretty chaotic, but it was Cedric who was wrong from the beginning. 

He shouldn’t have let this get so far and dragged it all the way into their home. Those who previously 

looked down on Natalie started feeling sorry for her. 

Isabella was now taking the heat. 

People who were afraid to speak against the Johnson family began discussing Isabella. 

“You know, this woman is cunning. She knew very well that Mrs. Johnson would be present at this Important event. Yet, she clung to Mr. Johnson and brought her here.” 

“Mistresses are really sly these days.” 

“Exactly! She may look innocent, but she’s just a gold digger!” 

Isabella overheard these comments, and her face turned pale. 

Yuvan, who was behind her, already felt the chilling aura emanating from Cedric. He had a hard time deciding what to do at that moment. 

Natalie and Cedric stood face to face, neither backing down. 

At this moment, it felt like the entire world had fallen silent, leaving them in a world of their own. 

Around them, everything seemed to slow down, and their shared memories rushed through their minds like flashes of lightning. 

There were beautiful moments–moments of traveling together, watching sunsets hand in hand, and witnessing snowy winters together. 

Yet, it had all led to this point, where Natalie’s hatred had grown so deep that she was asking for a 

divorce. 

When and why had they reached this point? 

These questions filled their minds. 

The hatred and desire to escape in Natalie’s eyes pierced Cedric’s heart. 

“Divorce her!” 

“With what Mr. Johnson did to her, it’s only normal that Mrs. Johnson would ask for a divorce!” 

“Ced, divorce her! No matter what, you need to divorce her today!” 

‘Mrs. Johnson is truly pitiable.” 

Various comments swirled around them, some pushing for Cedric and Natalie’s divorce and others 

showing sympathy for Natalie. 

Cedric didn’t know when exactly Natalie had started giving off such a strong sense of vulnerability by his 

side 

When their gazes met, the hatred in Natalie’s eyes was as clear as day. 

“Fine, I’ll grant your wish!” 

Silence followed Cedric’s proclamation, leaving everyone stunned. 

“Divorce, right? I’ll grant your wish.” He roared and then turned away abruptly. 

In the midst of this chaotic atmosphere, Cedric, at long last, had made his decision. 

He had… agreed. 

He finally agreed! 

Natalie stood in place, and her world came to a halt. He… had finally agreed! That was great! 

She felt relieved. 

No one could fathom the degree of inner turmoil and pressure she had endured over these past few 

weeks. 

Cedric was her husband. 

When he had taken her to the hospital, she had been on edge. She had always feared that he might find any excuse to sign a surgical consent form in the name of a guardian. 

After all, that was what had happened in her previous life. 

She had watched her whole world crumble when she saw Cedric’s name signed under the section for next of kin consent on that fateful day. 

Cedric has agreed to the divorce. You are no longer the Johnson familly’s young mi 

If it weren’t for the fact that so many people were present, she would have ordered Natalie to leave in a less dignified manner without caring about appearances. 

However, the Johnson family had a certain image to uphold! 

Despite the unfavorable comments that had already started circulating at the event, Rebecca was 

determined to maintain her composure in front of the guests. She didn’t want to embarrass the Johnson 

family further. 

Rebecca had completely lost her patience with Natalie. 

Meanwhile, Natalie was now desperate to leave this place at once! 

She turned, her petite figure radiating the same frigid cold as Cedric had moments earlier. 

She walked away without any embarrassment. Instead, her demeanor indicated complete indifference to the Johnson family, the divorce, and even Cedric. 

She didn’t care about everyone’s expectations. 

Not in the least. 

“What a disgrace… What a disgrace to have happened in our family!” Rebecca lamented, pounding her chest in frustration.. 

In her anger, she caught sight of Isabella sitting in the wheelchair. Her face turned an even worse shade of red as her anger spiked.
