The two people in the room had just gone through a passionate encounter, and Natalie Walker’s voice still held an irresistible charm in her voice as she lay weakly on the messy and luxurious bed.
With sweat-soaked strands of hair clinging to her exquisite face, a hint of desolation lingered in her expression.
She listened to the man’s fumbling as he dressed silently. Recalling how Cedric Johnson had initiated this act while being highly intoxicated, Natalie felt her stomach churn in disgust.
She had loved this man for ten years.
Now, there was nothing left to cherish.
Cedric paused abruptly in his actions, and he turned his cold eyes toward her.
“Divorce?”
“Yes!” Natalie said determinedly.
Having said that, she got out of bed and tried to stumble to the bathroom based on her memory of the place.
Cedric coldly stared at her for a moment. Eventually, he couldn’t bear it any longer and approached her.
“I’ll help you,” he said as he reached out to assist her.
Natalie forcefully slapped his hand away. However, that took her remaining energy, and she fell to the ground.
“Go away. I don’t want your help. You’re filthy.”
Just sharing the same roof with this man made her feel nauseated.
Cedric’s expression darkened instantly. His outstretched hand was frozen in midair, and the air around them became even colder.
She said he was filthy?!
Bracing herself with both hands on the ground, Natalie slowly got up. She looked to be in a wretched state as she continued her search for the bathroom.
Once she reached it, she turned on the scalding hot water and repeatedly washed herself. Her fair skin quickly turned completely red from the heat and scrubbing.
She wished she could peel off every inch of skin that he had touched!
After she was done, she exited the bathroom and fumbled toward the wardrobe. She hadn’t been blind for long, but she still hadn’t adjusted to the pitch-black world.
She could only move forward slowly based on faint impressions.
Relying on her senses, Natalie found a piece of clothing and put it on. She fumbled around and retrieved their marriage certificate.
“Let’s go. We’re heading to the clerk’s office right now.”
Cedric clenched his fist angrily, his joints cracking loudly at the action.
Unable to contain himself any longer, he suddenly got up, strode over to the woman, and forcefully grabbed her collar.
