Chapter 695
Inside the car, Dylan looked at Natalie with concern. He had heard every word of their conversation
earlier in the car, and he knew it was Natalie's retaliation against Irwin.
Previously, waves had been stirred up in Wexford. Now, it was Irwin's turn to deal with the aftermath.
Natalie didn't intend to let anything slide.
Dylan cautiously said, "The relationship between Mr. Frazier and Mr. Spencer is quite special. I hope
you can consider this matter carefully before making a decision."
Clearly, it was a reminder to Natalie that some things shouldn't be taken too far.
After all, Irwin and Caleb have been friends for so many years. What did she intend to do if something
were to happen on Natalie's end?
"Mr. Warren, you don't need to worry about these matters."
Caleb knew the current relationship between her and Irwin. If he could directly approach her despite
that, there was nothing Natalie needed to be concerned about.
Dylan furrowed his brows at Natalie's words. "Mr. Frazier is actually a pitiful man in this situation. Do
you have to go this far?"
In terms of emotions, at least from Dylan's perspective, Irwin was the one who had been hurt.
"He's pitiful? Mr. Warren, are you joking?"
Irwin was pitiful?
If he was pitiful after all he had done, then no one else in this world could be described as pitiful!
"In fact, Ms. Russell isn't as important as you think," Dylan added.
"Mr. Warren!" Natalie's tone grew stern, indicating she didn't want to continue discussing this topic.
Blair wasn't as important as she thought?
If Blair wasn't important, why did Irwin scheme for ten years?
If Blair wasn't important, why did Cedric use Natalie as a substitute for her?
It all boiled down to Natalie's lack of importance, while Blair was significant, at least in Irwin and
Cedric's minds.
When he heard the change in Natalie's tone, Dylan understood that there was no point in saying
anything further. For Natalie, those memories weighed too heavily. The issues that stemmed from them
were far too tangled up, and it was impossible to resolve them.
Dylan dropped Natalie off at Lotus Villa.
When Heather saw Natalie return, she approached her with concern. "What's going on between you
and Mr. Spencer?"
It was obvious that Caleb had moved quickly.
Now, the whole of Simeria was whispering that Natalie and Irwin's marriage had come about
undoubtedly because of Blair.
Every woman had a bottom line, and they wouldn't allow anyone to trample over it. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Rumors were rampant that Irwin and Natalie would surely divorce. After all, such a reason for marriage
wouldn't hold firmly.
The more intense part of the rumors was that Caleb was already waiting. He was even willing to accept
Natalie and her ex-husband's daughter!
"Oh, Mom."
"Nat, this..."
Heather's head was pounding now. She was completely unable to understand what was going on.
This was truly...!
Natalie cut off Heather's chaotic thoughts. "It's not what you think it is. I'm exhausted. I'm going to bed."
"N-not what I think? Then what is it?"
Heather was completely confused.
What was happening here?
There better not be another terrible situation awaiting them!
Her mind was about to explode. She couldn't believe that things had come to this.
The rumors now...
It was easy to imagine how intense the scene would be when it unfolded...! -
Meanwhile, Irwin had clearly seen the gossip circulating on the internet. With a sharp thud, he slammed
his phone on the desk, his eyes flashing with a dark glint!
When Dylan brought Natalie back, he felt the anger in Irwin's actions.
He approached Irwin. "Sir."
"Did you drop her off?"
"Yes, sir."
"Is Caleb still staying there?"
"Yes, sir."
As soon as Dylan finished speaking, Irwin rose from his seat. There was an intense air of danger so
palpable that Dylan's heart clenched in response.
Just as Irwin was about to step forward, Dylan interjected, "Perhaps there's a misunderstanding in this
matter. After all, the reports circulating are from gossip sites."
What was a gossip site?
It was a place where unconfirmed news circulated, and nobody knew if it was true or false.
Irwin clenched his fists. At that moment, he could only hope for what Dylan said to be true. Yet, his
mind was flooded with images of Caleb answering the door in his robe.
"It's late now. Let's discuss this tomorrow," Dylan suggested.
Natalie had only just met with Caleb today, yet the gossip sites had already exploded with news.
Clearly, there was someone behind the scenes orchestrating this. But who? And what was their
motive? Could it be related to the Entes family? And why involve Caleb?
With so many questions, they couldn't afford to act rashly.
"You're dismissed for now," Irwin said, his voice heavy with suppressed emotions.
Dylan nodded and left. After spending so much time with Irwin, he knew that if Irwin could contain his
emotions like this, there would be no immediate action tonight. -
That night, Natalie peacefully slept as if nothing had happened. However, Irwin lay awake and was
unable to sleep.
His plans to return to Wexford tomorrow were now postponed.
At breakfast, Natalie glanced at the time and reminded Luna, "Luna, hurry and finish your breakfast.
Once you're done, we're leaving. You told Mommy you didn't want to be late yesterday, remember?"
Stephen and Clyde were both not around. Natalie accompanied Luna to the early education class in
the morning as usual. In the afternoon, she went to the studio. However, just as she started work, she
received a message on her phone.
[Orchid Bay, 3 o'clock!]
Natalie remembered the message about delivering the money yesterday.
She replied, [Account details!]
However, after waiting for a full ten minutes, she received no reply again.
"This person...!"
Why were they so stubborn? Did it mean they only accepted cash and absolutely refused transfers?
What kind of eccentric person was this?
Natalie picked up the landline and dialed an extension.
The call was answered promptly, "Yes, Ms. Walker?"
"Come in," she instructed her assistant.
After hanging up, her assistant, Emily, quickly entered the room. "Ms. Walker, you wanted to see me?"
Natalie handed over a card and the invoice to her assistant. "Go with Lawrence and deliver this to
Orchid Bay according to the address on the invoice."
There was only one household in Orchid Bay. Natalie didn't know who it was, but whoever she could
meet at Orchid Bay was definitely affluent.
Emily glanced at the amount on the invoice, and her eyes widened.
"T-that much?"
"Is there a problem?" Natalie raised an eyebrow.
Emily looked at Natalie, her eyes instantly filled with emotion. "Do you... really trust me?"
Natalie fell silent.
What kind of question was that?
In Emily's view, the studio had only been open for a short time, and they hadn't worked together for
long.
Yet, the CEO trusted her with that much money...!
Instantly, she was moved!
