A Divorce After My Rebirth Complete Novel novel Chapter 642

In the afternoon, Irwin sought out Edward.

The atmosphere between them was tense. Whether it was Irwin or Cedric, they had pinned all their hopes on Edward.

After hearing the purpose of Irwin's visit, Edward looked at him with a serious expression and said, "If there's still no response at this point, there's no need to continue drinking the medicine."

Irwin fell silent.

His already troubled expression darkened a bit more upon hearing this statement. "You don't have to use Max to threaten me. Her injuries were too severe! Regardless of how we tried to control it, it was only a matter of time. If she had come to me earlier, there might have been a better chance for her to recover."

Earlier?

Yes, the previous successful cases were all because those people sought help upon discovering damage to their eyes.

And what about Natalie?

Two whole years.

During those two years, her family had only controlled the lights around her and made her take some medication. In doing those things, they had merely prolonged the condition of her eyes.

Now, problems were surfacing.

Irwin remained silent.

At this moment, he felt a chill throughout his body.

"Prepare for surgery," the old man's sharp eyes glanced at Irwin like a hawk.

"..."

Surgery?!

Upon hearing those words, his expression grew even graver. After all, 'surgery' was a heavy term for him now.

He closed his eyes. Then, he took a deep breath and asked, "Is there no other way?"

Like adjusting the medication!

However, Edward never mentioned changing the medication, indicating that the medication couldn't solve Natalie's eye condition.

"She's taken many other medications over these two years, and she went blind even while she was taking them. Recovery through medication is unlikely."

Unlikely?

"Then, is there any way?"

Unlikely meant there was still hope!

However, Edward's next words disappointed Irwin. He only said, "No. She'll have to prepare for surgery."

Surgery!

Edward repeatedly emphasized surgery.

Irwin understood that if even the doctor repeatedly suggested surgery, there was probably no other solution.

-

In the end, Irwin returned to the courtyard in a daze.

Today was a rare sunny day. Yuloria's afternoon sunlight was warm, and Natalie sat on a recliner in the courtyard.

The sunlight fell on her, bringing warmth, but her hollow eyes were suffocating to look at.

Irwin approached and sat on the stone bench beside her.

Natalie felt his presence and frowned. "It's been a long time since I've felt the taste of sunlight, but unfortunately... I can't see it now!"

She paused, her tone laden with bitterness, making it even more heartbreaking.

Irwin took a deep breath, suppressing the heaviness in his chest. "Don't worry, you'll be able to see."

"Did you go to see Edward?" Natalie asked.

"Yes."

"How did he respond?"

"..."

How did he respond?!

Irwin recalled Edward's words and looked into Natalie's eyes with a grave expression. He reached out and took Natalie's hand.

The warmth in the man's palm was like a blazing flame, making it almost scorching.

Natalie instinctively wanted to pull away, but the man's grip tightened.

"He said to finish the last few days of medication..."

The last few days?!

If there was still no effect until now, Edward himself had said there was no need to continue with the medicine.

The only option left was surgery!

However, Irwin still wanted to give it a try!

The last few days!

Traditional medicine... sometimes had such miraculous power.

Natalie frowned.

"Okay."

She didn't inquire further. In her heart, she probably already had an idea.

Dylan fell silent, and his brows furrowed tightly. Evidently, this was something he hadn't anticipated.

He hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

"How is he now?" Irwin asked.

He was referring to Cedric!

During this time, Irwin constantly inquired about Natalie's reaction to the medication, which ultimately stemmed from his concern for his childhood bond with Cedric.

And now that he had discovered Blair's true nature, his feelings toward Cedric...

There was no need to mention it!

Yet Natalie still hadn't recovered. There was not even the slightest improvement!

What did this imply? It implied that Cedric would inevitably give up his eyes for Natalie...!

Irwin couldn't bear to think about it.

When Dylan mentioned Cedric, the gravity in his already serious eyes deepened.

He said, "Most of the things have probably been transferred under your name, and he's already restrained the Schneider family."

Irwin fell silent.

At this moment, his mind went blank!

What... was Cedric trying to do?

Though Cedric was physically in Wexford, he knew everything about Natalie's situation in Yuloria.

He knew Natalie had no reaction to Edward's medicine.

So, he had slowly begun to prepare everything!

And all those things...!

Irwin and Cedric had fought over all those things for so many years. Now, he had given them entirely over to Irwin, undoubtedly letting go completely.

Cedric had... let go of Blair!

And he had completely entrusted Natalie to Irwin.

What kind of bond did he share with Natalie?

Natalie hated him because of Wexford!

But how could she know that Wexford was Cedric's pain?

Cedric understood better than anyone what kind of whirlpool Wexford was. That was why he never thought of involving Natalie in Wexford's mess.

He... was protecting her in his own way.
