apter 203 The Card has been Found 

win looked at her with a gentle smile. I thought you were going to say something else.” 

Natalie’s smile turned strained. There was none of the ease it had in the morning

Don’t worry, okay?Irwin reassured her, observing her concerned expression

Without a doubt, Cedric wouldn’t easily let Natalie off the hook this time. All the evidence, even the results of his own investigation, pointed towards Natalie

With their already fragile foundation of trust, the current situation only worsened the lack of it

Upon hearing this, Natalie didn’t respond

Instead, she picked up her glass of red wine and took another sip

How could she feel at ease

Cedric’s methods were ruthless, and she had no idea about the extent of his connections within Regal Horizons International

Since your uncle is aware of his nature, he’ll definitely be taking precautions, right?Irwin asked

Yes,Natalie nodded, acknowledging the truth in his words

However, even though her uncle might be cautious, it didn’t ease her mind

She had been by Cedric’s side for a decade. She knew that once he set his mind on something, he would relentlessly pursue it. When he sought her out to settle scores, it caused quite a bit of trouble on her uncle’s end

Now, he was convinced that Isabella had lost her sight because of her

So, he would definitely not let her off the hook. 

Natalie.” 

Hmm?” 

Have you ever considered going abroad?” 

This wasn’t the first time Irwin had suggested this. In his view, the chaos in Verde City was distressing for 

her

But what about your project?” 

+15 BONUS 

wont go awry, Irwin assured her

He hoped Natalie would leave now and return once things had settled

Closing her eyes, Natalle recalled Cedric’s furious expression. Finally, she nodded. Perhaps it’s for the best 

With the approaching New Year, going back to Simeria to spend time with her uncle seemed like the best way to handle the current public opinion

Ignoring the situation was the best strategy

The more attention she paid to it, the more fervent some people would become. Arguing with a group of fanatics was never a wise choice

I’ll arrange things at Sylvan Gems tomorrow and head back to Simeria. Where are you planning to go during your vacation?” 

I haven’t made any plans yet.” 

How about spending your vacation in Simeria?” 

At this moment, Irwin’s projects weren’t holding her back. Natalie was grateful for that

The first time things went wrong, she wanted to abandon everything in Verde City and leave. However, she couldn’t because of the studio she had started. She was also worried it might affect Apex Global and Premier Garden

Sure,” Irwin looked at her and said gently

As Natalie finished the last of her wine, a hint of melancholy flickered in Irwin’s eyes

I’m an outsider, so it might be difficult for me to interfere in the matters between you and Cedric. ButI believe you’ll grant me that privilege, won’t you?Irwin asked

Privilege

Natalie nodded

This time, she didn’t refuse Irwin

He spoke with such dominance, and she couldn’t help but feel the need to rely on him

It turned out she was just a woman

In her most vulnerable moments, what she needed most was someone to lean on, right

+15 BONUS 

After dinner, Irwin personally pulled out the chair for Natalle and helped her stand. At the adjacent table, Leon also stood

Seeing the two rise, he respectfully followed behind Natalie

As they reached the entrance of the restaurant, Isaac walked in. When his eyes met Natalie’s, a coldness flickered in them

Then, his eyes turned crimson, burning with rage

You sure have some nerve, huh? You must have some really good tricks up your sleeves to still parade around like this!” 

Isaac was usually a very cheerful person, and he had never uttered such sarcastic words to anyone

But looking at Natalie now, he wished he could dissect her with a scalpel to see the true color of her heart

Natalie furrowed her brows at Isaac’s words. Just as she was about to say something. Irwin stepped forward and gently pushed her behind him to shield her

This action only further infuriated Isaac

Hmph, acting differently when someone is protecting you, huh?” 

Mr. Phelps, whether she has the right to parade around is not something you can casually comment on, don’t you think?Irwin retorted

Irwin, she’s Cedric’s exwife. Can the Frazier family’s head really accept your involvement with her?Isaac mocked, looking at Irwin

Natalie’s expression changed slightly

She took a step forward, but Isaac continued, No matter how beautiful a person is, she’s still a divorcee, you know?” 

Natalie’s expression darkened

Mr. Phelps, I understand your feelings. But standing here today means I’m innocent! Why vent your anger on me?” 

It’s so easy for you to say that, huh? Natalie, aren’t you just relying on Stephen’s support?Isaac sneered.I want to see if you can still be so high and mighty when your crimes are exposed!” 

Natalie was speechless and genuinely angry. She didn’t want to deal with someone like Isaac, who had 

However, Isaac blocked her way

+15 BONUS 

What? Brave enough to act but not to face the consequences? Can’t take a few words?Isaac taunted

Didn’t you already report this to the police? Why talk to me about it now? I’d advise you to be more sensiblel” 

Natalie was not one to be trifled with. She glanced back at Leon

Leon nodded and stepped forward. As Natalie pulled Irwin away, Isaac attempted to stop them. However, Leon blocked his way

Mr. Phelps, it’s better to keep quiet before you lose your composure. This time, Ms. Walker won’t hold it against you. But next time!”
