A Divorce After My Rebirth by Gentle Rain in June

Chapter 620 Traded

Her Life

"Do you know what Jason said then? He said... I should abort the child!"

When the people around Natalie saw her in such pain, almost everyone advised her the same thing.

However, no matter how they persuaded her, Natalie endured it all!

"Some of the burns on my body were quite severe, and the rotten flesh had to be scrapped off! Even

now, the pockmarks on my body result from cleaning the wounds back then."

"I couldn't take any anesthetics!"

11 II

The moment Natalie said she had to endure the pain without any anesthetics, Cedric trembled

uncontrollably.

He was a strong man, but when he heard that, he couldn't help but...!

He had seen it.

He had seen how extensive her injuries were.

To be told that she couldn't be given anesthetic at the time...

He could only imagine how terrible the pain she had to endure.

"Nat..."

It hurt.

At this moment, Cedric felt an unbearable pain in his chest.

"People say a child is what a woman trades her life for. I didn't quite understand this until Luna came

along," Natalie said.

At that time, her life was hanging by a thread. Yet, she still insisted on protecting the child in her belly.

It was obvious that Natalie had endured a deep pain in her heart back then.

"I was very cautious about what medication I took, but perhaps because of my health... I gave birth to

her too early, and she was premature," Natalie said casually.

But Cedric listened with shock and immense heartache.

"Nat!"

He wanted to say something, but he couldn't find the words. His throat kept getting tighter, and it was

so painful...!

"She almost died, you know?"

Did they think everything would be fine once the child was born?

No, having a child was just the beginning of worries for parents.

A normal baby already required a lot of effort and hardship to raise, but a premature baby... no one

knew the difficulties and pain that followed.

For several months, several nannies took turns taking care of the child. There was no room for error.

But even so, when the child had problems, there was much more to face than Cedric had imagined.

"She's grown up so much now. She has fallen ill for over thirty times. There wasn't a month that went

by without her falling sick!"

Natalie couldn't remember exactly how many times, But in her memory, Luna's body had been very

weak initially.

Visiting the hospital several times a month was common.

At that time, it seemed she couldn't do anything besides endure it. Every time she saw Luna fall ill, her

heart ached!

Other than feeling heartbroken, Natalie couldn't do anything else.

"Nat, don't say anymore," Cedric said, feeling suffocated.

"She was so small! Every time she gets a shot, I'm the one crying. She was so well-behaved... It was

heartbreaking," Natalie said.

Luna didn't cry or fuss, but Natalie couldn't bear it when she saw the child in such a state each time.

It was too painful.

With each passing month, Natalie felt extremely distressed just by watching everything that happened

to Luna.

"My aunt...No, my mom stayed up several nights worrying! She couldn't trust anyone else."

Yes, at that time, Heather was still an aunt to her.

It was Heather who stayed up night after night, fearing any mishap with the child Natalie had traded her

life for.

Everyone in the Jarvis family knew that if anything happened to Luna, it would cost Natalie her life!

So, no matter who it was, nobody dared to let anything happen to Luna. Even though the child's health

was so poor, they all worked tirelessly to make her better.

Because only when Luna was well would Natalie be well.

As Natalie spoke calmly, Cedric felt his heart constricting further.

"Luna is not only mine but also my parents' child. She's a child they sacrificed their lives for. What right

do you have to use her to save someone else?"

Natalie had never said these things before!

But at that moment, Cedric understood why Natalie never allowed him to use Luna to save Kayla, no

matter what.

Luna was like a treasure in Natalie's hands. She was always fearing the child would slip away.

How could Natalie bear to let her child be harmed?

"At that moment, I never hated you so much before...!"

"I know. I know..." Cedric muttered as he tightened his arms around her.

At that moment, more than anyone else, he understood why Natalie hated him so much.

She just wanted to be good to her child, the child she had sacrificed her life for.

As long as she could be good to her child, she was willing to let go of all the hatred.

But even such a simple request was denied to her in the end, and she couldn't trust anyone anymore.

She was afraid!

That was why things between her and Cedric would never end until one of them was dead...

All for the sake of seeking peace for Luna.

"I'm sorry. I was wrong!"

Cedric wanted her to stop talking.

He didn't want to hear it anymore.

He hadn't been involved in those past events, but it felt like a bloodied battlefield...!

There were no interesting stories...!

In the child's growth process, they shed blood and tears.

No one knew how much the Jarvis family went through to raise Luna.

"Stop talking..." Cedric pleaded.

"Didn't you ask for interesting stories?"

"This was everything we've experienced on her journey to growing up!" Natalie said.

Cedric felt his heart bleeding at that moment.

That was... everything they had been through?

Even though there were beautiful moments, they must have been worn away by their pain and worry.

So, the bad experiences they had to endure as Luna grew up left a more significant impact on the

Jarvis family, and those were the memories they remembered the most.

"Stop, Natalie. I get it... I get it already!"

Cedric tightened his embrace a little more. At that moment, he didn't want to hear anything else.

It was too painful.

It was all too painful for him.

He now knew that Natalie had endured so much during Luna's growth...!

"You're right, I don't deserve..." Cedric gritted his teeth and trailed off.

When Natalie once criticized him about this, Cedric simply thought it was because she hadn't

experienced raising Luna with him.

If he had the chance, would it still be the same?

But now he knew...

He truly didn't deserve it!

"You must be thinking that I didn't give you the chance, right?" Natalie said calmly, as if she had seen

through the man's thoughts.

Cedric was silent.

She had seen through it all!

"Even if you had the chance, so what?" Natalie sarcastically chuckled.

And what she said was true!

He had no right...!

That was the only thought that filled Cedric's mind.

In Natalie's opinion, Cedric wouldn't have cherished it even if he had been given the chance!
