With that, Natalie turned and got into her Mercedes-Benz G-Klasse. Yves watched Natalie leave and then got into his own car. Then, he pulled out his phone to call Irwin.-At this moment, Irwin was in Orchid Bay.Both men had cold expressions with a hint of hostility.Seeing Yves's call, Irwin glanced at the elegant man sipping coffee across from him and then answered his phone. "Did she go back?""Yes, sir.""Good."With that, he hung up the phone. Meanwhile, Austin had already set down his coffee cup. Every movement he made exuded elegance."In all these years, no one from the Entes family has ever come here, right?" Irwin asked.His tone was deep and grave. If anyone from the Entes family had visited Orchid Bay, Irwin believed someone would have noticed something amiss."Why would a group of sensible people pay attention to a fool?" Austin responded, his words dripping with sarcasm."A fool, huh?" Irwin muttered.If Austin was just a fool, he was certainly not an ord
Irwin exited Lotus Villa in a daze. When Dylan saw him, he approached anxiously."Sir."Irwin looked at Dylan and said, "She's involved, you know?" "..." Dylan stiffened instantly at Irwin's words. In truth, since Natalie returned to Simeria, she had been involved, but neither Cedric nor Irwin wanted to admit it.Today's conversation with Stephen undeniably made Irwin's mind race even more."Yes, sir." Dylan nodded.Irwin's people undoubtedly had long seen through it, but Irwin and Cedric refused to face this terrifying reality."Let's go!" Irwin clearly didn't want to continue this topic, heading straight for the car.Dylan followed and said, "Lucas called.""Lucas?""Yes, sir."Lucas was one of Cedric's men. Since Cedric left Yonwood City, nobody knew where he went.Not even Irwin.But now, there was a call from Lucas.Why?Because of the reports about Natalie and Austin? Thinking about those reports made Irwin's head ache even more!"What did he say?" Irwin's to
Encountering someone like Rebecca made one angrier than usual. It wasn't good for women to be angry so often.Irwin looked at her silently for a long time. His eyes shimmered with endless complexity."Do you hate the Johnson family so much now?"It wasn't just Cedric. Natalie was showing endless hatred toward the entire Johnson family.That was how Natalie was now."Do you think it would have been better if I had kneeled before Rebecca and begged her not to take Luna?" Natalie asked."Nat!" Irwin's tone grew stern."I don't know what's going on between you and Cedric, but do you think what I just did was wrong?" asked Natalie. The recent scene was quite intense, but Irwin knew deep down why it had escalated to that level."Yes, you were wrong!" The air froze instantly. Natalie and Cedric may have had some bad times in the past, but in Irwin's perspective, they also shared good memories.However, Natalie's recent actions have left him taken aback. After a moment of sile
Bianca was afraid that any slight mishap on her part might affect Zane, especially given Malcolm's recent behavior. Bianca couldn't help but worry.Each time she recalled Malcolm's arrogant and domineering attitude, barging into her life with his brute force, she couldn't help but wish to tear him apart limb by limb.So, the importance of Zane to Bianca became even more apparent in times like these.Bianca sighed. "Nat, I've never felt so lost before!"Her words carried a hint of powerlessness and resignation.And indeed, Bianca spoke the truth. Once, she was the best divorce lawyer in Verde City, seemingly in control of everything.She couldn't afford to make any mistakes each time she did her tasks.Bianca had principles. She only took cases where the victim was clearly evident...!As for those who were guilty and sought to gain the upper hand in the division of assets, she never accepted such cases.In her workplace, she was upright and sharp!And now, amidst the chaos o
Even though Bianca hadn't gone out, significant news from the outside would eventually reach her ears. Moreover, with Natalie being the heiress of the Jarvis family now, it was even more normal for such news to circulate.Natalie fell silent.Bringing up Rebecca didn't improve Natalie's mood. She sighed. "Just three hours ago, we had a big fight!""What?" Bianca was shocked.Natalie and Rebecca had a fight?It was quite overwhelming, given their past relationship. Bianca's mind struggled to process it."Do you also think I was wrong?" Natalie asked, testing Bianca's reaction.Bianca replied, "No, I'm just surprised."Perhaps because Bianca and Irwin took different positions and their past experiences differed. So, their perspectives on the same issue varied.In Bianca's view, Natalie had never resisted Rebecca before. Bianca had been distressed at one point because of this. Rebecca clearly didn't treat Natalie as a daughter-in-law, even bullying her. So, when Bianca heard th
Rebecca sued Natalie.When Natalie received the relevant summons, she clenched her hands tightly. Her eyes were filled with a dark, brooding intensity. She was about to call Clyde on her phone, and her purpose was evident.Undoubtedly, Rebecca had repeatedly crossed the line! The peace Natalie sought was not only for herself but also for Luna. With Rebecca causing such turmoil in Simeria, Luna would inevitably be affected eventually.However, before she could make the call, Irwin called.Natalie answered the call, but she remained silent.Irwin calling at this moment meant he was aware, right? Natalie wanted to see how Irwin would respond."Did you receive it?""Yes."So, what next?Previously, Irwin had claimed he would handle the situation. But now, it had come to Natalie like this. She wanted to know how Irwin intended to proceed."I'll handle this.""How will you handle it?" Natalie couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this.Handle it?!What kind of person was Rebe
Of course, the words these two spoke, and even the meanings they represented, were completely different...!Most of the time, Irwin's words implied he wanted Natalie to compromise with Rebecca. Meanwhile, Clyde's words implied that Natalie should confront it head-on!Irwin told Natalie not to interfere. He didn't want her to have any conflict with Rebecca. He always protected Rebecca, while Clyde... wanted the lawyer to handle it directly and not let Natalie worry about it."Okay!"Natalie's response to Clyde naturally differed from when she spoke to Irwin. She listened to Clyde's words. Obviously, whatever Clyde said now was what it was.Rebecca was causing trouble. Unlike before, Natalie now had a family to help deal with it.They had also decided to send Luna away from Simeria and to Snow City. So now, even if Rebecca wanted to see the child, it was impossible.-Rebecca was relentless now.The next day, she had someone send things that she had bought for Luna. She made it
In Rebecca's heart, everything in the Johnson family had always been fine. Even though Christina was an adopted daughter, she had always been respectful toward Rebecca.And Cedric was the most outstanding man in the world!So naturally, Rebecca wanted to find a suitable match for him. Ever since her husband passed away, her days had been difficult.And when she learned about what happened in Wexford, Rebecca's state worsened even more.She even believed that the Wexford incident was somehow related to Natalie, and now, she blamed everything on Natalie.Everything happened because of Natalie!And now, Cedric's whereabouts were unknown.How could Rebecca bear all of this?After a long time, Rebecca took a deep breath and said, "No matter what, I'll get the child back by my side." Now, Rebecca clearly didn't care about what Natalie had to say. She only wanted to take Luna for herself. She really didn't care about anything else anymore.The air around Natalie was chilly, and n
