Chapter 1570 Sever Ties 

Hesitation in cutting ties would only lead to chaos. 

ff Finished 

After yesterday’s events, Madeline was determined to sever her relationship with Darren and finalize their divorce as soon as possible. 

Cecilia was momentarily stunned. “I filed for divorce before?” 

It dawned on Madeline that Cecilia’s amnesia was far more extensive than she had thought. 

Sighing, Madeline was about to explain when she suddenly felt a chill behind her. 

Turning around, she saw Nathaniel approaching. His eyes were as cold as ice. 

“It’s already past eight. Madeline, aren’t you going to have breakfast? Or head to work?” Nathaniel prompted.

Madeline hesitated, not wanting to badmouth him in front of his face. 

“Oh, right, I’m going now.” 

She immediately walked away. 

Cecilia, however, was still stuck on Madeline’s earlier words. 

When Nathaniel finally stood before her, she asked directly, “Did I ever file for divorce from you before?” 

Nathaniel was silent for a moment before responding truthfully. 

“Yes, we had a misunderstanding in the past,” he admitted. 

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Cecilia asked, clearly upset. 

Nathaniel gestured for her to sit down. 

Once they were seated on the living room couch, Nathaniel began to explain slowly. “A lot happened between us before. I admit I was selfish and chose to hide some of the unpleasant parts. I was afraid that if you didn’t recover your memory and learned about those things, you’d ignore me.” 

“And then? Why exactly did I want a divorce back then? Cecilia pressed. 

Nathaniel revealed everything about what had happened at the time without holding back. 

“It was my fault back then. You wouldn’t forgive me, so you wanted a divorce,” Nathaniel paused before adding, “And there’s one more thing. We’re technically still divorced.” 

That last sentence completely stunned Cecilia. “What?” 

Nathaniel went on to explain that the divorce had been a necessary measure at the time. He had to undergo a major surgery, and divorcing her was meant to protect her from the Rainsworth family’s internal conflicts and his external enemies. 

As Cecilia processed these memories, she found the whole situation absurd.

“Is that all?” 

“More or less,” Nathaniel replied, though he knew he hadn’t covered everything. 

So much had happened over the years that it was inevitable some smaller details were forgotten. After hearing it, Cecilia nodded. “Got it.” 

“Ceci, I really didn’t mean to hide anything from you,” Nathaniel added quickly, worried she might be 

upset. 

Cecilia wasn’t angry. Her expression was calm. “The past is the past. If you had truly intended to hide things from me, you wouldn’t have spent all this effort helping me recover my memory.” 

She wasn’t naïve. 

Only then did Nathaniel feel at ease. 

“Where do you want to go today? I’ll go with you,” he offered. 

“I’ve rested enough. I want to go back to work like Lottie and Maddie,” Cecilia replied. Staying at home alone every day was boring. 

Seeing her health had improved, Nathaniel didn’t object. “Sure.” 

“But I’ll have to go to Imminence Corporation, so I can’t be with you all the time,” he added. 

Cecilia was more than happy to have him out of her way. 

“That’s fine,” she said with a smile in her eyes. 

Nathaniel couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. “Are you implying that you don’t want my company?” 

Wasn’t that obvious? 

Still, Cecilia decided to lie out of politeness. “Not at all. I just think men should focus on their careers, don’t you agree?” 

Hearing her reasoning, Nathaniel found his mood improving slightly. 

“You’re right. I’ll work hard.”
